Except, you're proving mine. In a thread full of people gushing on Mac speakers, me saying it's an okay but overpriced machine is considered "hating for the sake of hating"
I wouldn't describe the speakers on the M1 I use as amazing. It's more or less as bad as the speakers of previous laptops I used. I mean, it is a speaker. Good enough for simple sound feedback on most applications.…

That's exactly how I've been using it. Absolutely amazing stuff. Saves me hours of combing stuff through the internet while coding, so I can focus in the actual problems I need to work on.

This is the right answer. I think the startup scene is mostly a huge grift. Companies that don't make any sense being propped up by VC money until they find and exit (typically an IPO) and are left to crash and burn. I…
I think the basic assumption is "you need help, and we are willing to help you". I guess it all comes down to what "life coaching" means in this context. If we are talking about some sort of social assistants that will…

Forgive me for not taking their opinion about an economic block that they don't seem to understand and that their country doesn't belong to very seriously.
I think the benefits far outweigh the downsides. To be frank, I think a big chunk of its problems is that it is not integrated enough. Then again, my perspective is from someone not originally from Europe, that chose to…

Where I live (also in the EU), I noticed a slowdown in recruiting starting on mid-December. While I usually receive at least 2 messages from recruiters per week, I received only 2 messages in almost 2 months. However,…
