One of the value props was the inability to reset and resell if it were lost or stolen. Now that it’s cracked there is more of an incentive to not try and find the owner. As for actual data security you are probably…
Highest GDP in the world?
I’ve heard another take that Spotify ownership allows them to play almost any music because JRE inherits Spotify’s license to play it. Also this is a licensing deal for a set period. Ownership of JRE itself doesn’t…
I also hate all open source Remote Desktop solutions, but I ended up using SPICE with Proxmox. Nothing else will forward audio and handling Remote Desktop at a virtualization level is the most reliable and flexible of…
>AGI could be the ultimate tool to free every human being from toil I don't believe that's inherently a good thing if you mean that literally. I used to subscribe more to the AnPrim/Ted Kaczynski ideology that toil is…
I have had nothing but bad experiences with Lenovo ThinkPads, and refuse to buy anything else of theirs (especially in the wake of Superfish). I had a T60 that had the both hinges snap in the case in normal operation,…
Time has value, and economies of scale make it more efficient. I worked at a CSA for a while and the amount of time it would take an individual to have the diversity of foods we provide would have taken them far longer.…
Companies exist to maximize some measure, and maximizing "social" isn't inherently a good thing. All the nonsense that happens on social media is the same as what happens in real life, but you can't monetize/optimize…
I'd argue that most men that won't have sex probably have some character issues they need to work out personally, or otherwise need to develop into somebody interesting. Dopamine hits from other places are more easy to…
I agree with you in spirit, but the Fairness Doctrine in the United States was a variation of this, where the FCC required that approximately equal time and attention be paid to all sides of a major issue. Ronald Reagan…
Google's definition of socialism "a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a…
State owned production and distribution. The things these markets sold were (most likely) not state produced or distributed, since they were Western goods.
He is just stating it matter-of-fact, since they could use USD to purchase things at a (free) market price.
Google Play allows for different "tracks" for publication: internal testing, closed alpha, closed/open beta, and production. My approach is to keep releases in sync with Git branches (master is to production, staging is…
Robert Moses was criticized for doing similar things in New York City (making overpasses too low so buses couldn't go through, etc). Have you read The Power Broker by Robert Caro?
A lot of it probably has to do with income. Linux is free, but everybody I know that uses it only uses it for work.
I might buy some of these Uber bonds [1], they are probably my favorite of the current tech companies, so why not help out a bit. [1]: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-05-13/uber-to-s...
New York is probably one of the most union heavy places in America. Checking where they are unionized more isn't an accurate reflection of the rest of the world.
I'm about to release something very similar to this. You might see it here in a week or two
Podcasts are getting pretty popular as well. I think just in terms of sheer available time to listen versus watching videos, podcasts could gain a sizeable market share.
This might be a bias due to the fact that most companies are started by men (probably more inclined to take larger risks), and that companies need to reach a relatively successful state before the initial members of…
I've had the exact opposite experience, but I mostly use Java over Flutter for Android. Expo can be fairly limiting and breaks a lot, but core React Native is wonderful and does everything I need with a couple…
Agreed on i3. Are there any Ubuntu distributions that have i3 OOTB with reasonable integrations?
I definitely do. One of the main differences is this specifically is not mass-marketed, and I agree that anybody would would have the capability of doing this should already have the knowledge to not fuck it up. I'm…
My university does have a co-op, but I just applied directly (doing a Math degree, so the Liberal Arts college doesn't have a co-op).
