Agreed. As some other posters have pointed out Apple has some amazing tech in FaceID, AirPods, an ECG on your wrist. But where they fall down is the assume pros don’t want ports in their laptops, think people don’t want…
Yep. I keep <15 apps on my phone.
I just don’t get how an already highly profitable, premium device maker raking in billions of dollars a year makes people nervous by not making as money billions as expected. It’s a simplistic view I know but come on.…
> A lot of the complaining you hear from Swedish people is because they haven't really experienced anything different. They have no idea how comfortable life is here (still). As a parent, I can barely fathom raising a…
I'll second that. Due to a couple of significant illnesses growing up my family would have been bankrupted two times over if we lived in the US. Also, when one of my parents passed after a couples months of…
I have to agree with this. If everyone can code then it would no longer be a commodity skill set of sorts.
Lucky his partner is an attorney.
Interesting that corporate America typically likes to have cookie cutter schedules that often intrude into our mornings. However, Jeff Bezos, arguably one of the more successful business people in the world doesn’t…
Plus if I want to watch current TV or more recent shows alongside originals it’s available on Hulu. Netflix has lost a lot of the more bingeable shows and it really doesn’t have any current content. I get that Netflix…
Hulu without commercials doesn’t have commercials in the middle of content.
Same here. I literally found myself scrolling Netflix for many, many minutes on end. It essentially became Facebook. I don’t know if the issue is their catalog has expanded with so many originals that it’s hard to find…
Also a president with mental issues uses his powerful position to call the press “the enemy of the people”. Then his mentally unstable followers send bombs or get their hands on assault weapons.
There’s just no end to the abuse of our data is there? Sorry, no Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant for me.
I agree with this. Amazon could still be a huge marketplace if they stocked the virtual shelves and only sold legitimate items or their own brands. Target does it and that is where my business has been going instead of…

If you bought a new iPhone 3G in 2008, and then a new iPhone 4 in 2010, you were buying markedly different machines... This is true. The first iPhone was a great product but 3G was a huge upgrade. Retina screens, LTE,…
I’ve been beating this drum for a while. It doesn’t make any logical sense why knowledge/tech workers have to live close to these expensive cities or find affordability by becoming a super commuter from an hour or more…
Deleted Facebook and Instagram years ago. There was no point to any of it. It’s astounding that with all our tech advancements we are so good at building HA distributed systems that can allow people to over share their…
Agreed. Plus many six figure salaries are attached to equal or greater amounts of equity, 401K match and typically low cost health insurance. So while it’s not jet-set wealth it is more than enough to have a very…
It’s kinda crazy that the whole FEE thing was treated like a lightbulb moment for the company when everyone else in the industry had them.
A key passage from the article. "Once Americans began driving Hondas and Toyotas, they discovered that these cars had a lot more going for them than just gas mileage — they broke down infrequently, could last for…
As a 'tech worker' myself these folks have my respect. Along with Dragonfly and some of the egregious privacy and sexual harassment issues at Google I have stopped using any Google products. However, between this and…

No worries. I deleted FB long ago and most recently fully weaned myself off Google. The reality is Gmail, Facebook, et al are ploys to get people to store their data on an ad companies servers. No thanks!
It was sarcastic. It’s one of the excuses my family gives for not deleting their FB.
