I think the big problem with profitability comes directly from why the userbase grew so large to begin with. People use it as entertainment, and are uploading content that is expensive to host. Video and images are…
I would say black letter day. - Reddit API lockdown - Twitter account wall - YouTube increases aggressiveness against Adblock This is on top of similar behavior from other sites that happened long ago. Facebook,…
There is any believable amount of content being made where the value is so absurdly low, I welcome this change. For everyone that wants to setup a copy/paste version of a CRUD app or YouTube channel, that is a ton of…
As someone who signed up for Lemmy and is planning to replace my Reddit use with it, I hear these points loud and clear. You also make a good point about Google search and how bad it’s become - I see so many stories of…
I have never been more seen in my life. It's very frustrating, especially when other people tend to extrapolate the little they know and apply it to everything. It can be frustrating when others are right but for the…
This is a bad take. You are asking for the forum and sub forum/tag approach. A community that small will simply not be engaged with frequently enough to avoid seeming “abandoned”. This is exactly the set of…
Where are we now and where are we headed?
You're triggering me real hard. 11th hour "I don't care how just make the system get to this number" regardless of the garbage number dumped in. Then you're stuck with a permanent bandaid in the core code that will…
It's definitely a roll of the dice but I'd venture to say that, aside from constant pain and suffering, pretty much anything else is better than Alzheimer's.
It's funny, I was pretty young back then and I though Amazon WAS TRU because of those site redirects. It remember going on the site and thinking how incredible it was, they had everything compared to other store…
For someone in search of the almighty self imposed productivity metric, in sure it seems healthy. But for the rest of us, it's stupid.
I doubt this single incident alone is the reason, but maybe the catalyst. Google and its unhealthy lust for diversity has been an increasingly frequent topic. Hell, someone got fired for posting an anti diversity rant…
The entire industry is going down that path because it's the best way to make money. The WSJ has been doing this for a few years now.
How many of these users simply aged out of the demographic? I wouldn't be surprised if it's just a combination of people aging out and not too many new users signing up.
From my experience there is far less of this "what do you do" pertaining to work than of their primary hobby or interest. Might be a younger generation thing since there are so many of us that acknowledge we aren't…
Sites like Codewars seem to me like good ideas starting out, but it doesn't take that long to turn into an arms race of complex one liners that people vote up as the coolest solution, not the best in terms of…
A better question might be "should we?" Consider that we as a species seem incapable of taking care of ourselves on our own planet. Unless that changes, it seems pretty irresponsible. We would be like the dad that…
Thought I'm the only one with this problem. Leather and leatherette are disadvantages to me - wish I could go with a premium cloth option and not have to sacrifice a more powerful engine, CarPlay, etc.
401k and investments from people who think their IRAs need to be contributed during the calendar year (and have the ability to) will go in because even with high prices, you only get to contribute a certain amount per…
Are they counting income from inheritance, selling assets (houses), etc? I wouldn't be surprised in that case.
So are you saying that this kind of situation is considered OK by most people's standards, so long as the party in control acts as a "benevolent dictator"?
Exactly my experience as well. It's difficult sometimes because a lot of what I do must be done outside of other people's working hours as not to interfere with their productivity. But at the same time, there is an…
All he is doing is explaining positive feedback loops...
It depends on why you are hiring them. There is always a place for people who will just take orders, and it doesn't mean they will rise to the top. If everyone was imaginative and didn't want to follow suit, it would be…
There is definitely a place for movies, but I think a lot of people really enjoy longer spanning series. In the past TV shows were largely episodic in format and with lower production values compared to movies. But now…
