Yes, I am an AI. Hello! It’s common for commenters in online forums who have lost the argument to resort to ad hominem attacks — including references to their comment history and vague repulsion of the content of their…
You started it my friend. You’re all over this thread hating this product for no reason calling it “imposterware.” I think that opens yourself up to deserving your own spoonful of criticism. I am surprised that as an…
While you’re not wrong at all in the concept of your post, I wouldn’t call AOL a particularly innovative company. They basically innovated once and then went straight into lazy rent-seeking for the rest of their…
Haters gonna hate. Link us to your company that you’ve been the CEO of for 10 years. I don’t like the product either. But I can see why someone would buy it.
I think it’s an interesting theory but a bit too conspiracy theory-ish. Nvidia just wants to sell stuff to everyone. And I think for professionals doing local AI work, products like Strix Halo and Apple Silicon are a…
The CAN-SPAM Act only covers a specific type of marketing email with a specific set of rules. It doesn't cover emails that fall under the explanation that NYT provided. The author of the blog just didn't accept the…
12 million subscribers don't seem to mind. But I guess that is "nobody" in your eyes. I'm not dying on any hill, I'm just factually pointing out that emails that have a defined end date are by legal definition able to…
The license is the most interesting part of this project. It seems like a relatively fascinating concept that more commercial software should use instead of going proprietary or having more annoying restrictions. A…
Is that the word we are using for Boeing Quality Assurance now?
I mean, there definitely are bad companies that abuse that attitude. However, on the other hand, a lot of keyboard warriors on here love to be edgelords about refusing to take any initiative, as if every single form of…
Depends how long the rounds are. 6 rounds of 20 minutes is only 2 hours. If you think that’s unreasonable, please go ahead and add a few fire sauce packets to the bag for me.
That’s fine, I don’t need to hire cynical people. My interview process is very reasonable. If you’ve hit the point where you are required to do a 2-3 hour technical interview round with me, you’re a short list candidate…
For your first paragraph, that’s just a risk of hiring employees that has nothing to do with the interview process. You can possibly surface some of that during behavioral interviews. If you as a manager can’t detect…
This point gets repeated a lot as if we are supposed to coddle engineers by making interviews wildly easy. At some point as an employer you do want someone who is motivated enough to take some time out of their day to…
Well, let’s not pretend like Starlink is the same as previous satellite internet providers. No previous providers were anywhere near as fast or low latency. The use cases for Starlink are a lot wider than previous…
I think total market indexes are outside the scope of concern. They are buying SpaceX regardless of IPO rules.
Just like Japan was 10+ years ahead of the US when they started selling cars in America. The best thing that could happen to the US auto industry is if the US government allowed China into the US.
No, my logic specifically said that the emails have a defined end and that makes them transactional. You can’t extend my logic beyond my specific boundaries. I would say I’m not even trying to spin it. For all I know…
I think the piracy rate probably varies a lot by demographic and overall target audience, and that for some types of games and publishers a lot of the draconian DRM makes a lot of sense from a pure dollars and sense…
They clearly fit within the definition of transactional. They are part of the transaction and they are not an ongoing marketing mailing list. They end completely after 14 days. The author described them as "marketing"…
> protectionism still saved the industry for years, it did its job perfectly. This is under an assumption that the alternative would have been eradication of the industry, as in, “if we don’t protect the industry it…
There are plenty of horizontally scaled systems where the choice is still made to use a cloud provider. It’s really a lot more about business focus. I don’t want to hire someone who understands how an email server works…
Ah I see. Yeah I actually thought that would be pretty strange since it was CD Projekt Red’s store.
Not sure what the author is bitching about. They’re a one-time series of email messages over 14 days. They are transactional emails. Maybe the author doesn’t agree with that but they’re welcome to take NYT to court over…
I think you are at least partially reinforcing my point here. Two of your three examples had a delayed release on GOG, and that's pretty telling especially considering one of those two was developed and published by…
