>A startup made for the purpose of acquisition was never a competitor You cannot get acquired unless you represent a percentage of market share, have IP which will lead to greater market share, and/or have employees who…
Arguing good or bad on a single data point is reductive. I'm raising awareness that there is a counter argument for assuming excessive M&As is "bad."
Devil's advocate: more acquisitions creates more incentive to launch a start-up. More startups create more competition.
My biggest complaint with gRPC is proto3 making all nested type fields optional while making primitives always present with default values. gRPC is contract based so it makes no sense to me that you can't require a…
Google Chrome proposed hardware attestation. I actually thought it was a pretty good idea but there were some privacy risks so it ended up DOA. https://github.com/RupertBenWiser/Web-Environment-Integrity/...
I just built a rig with new, top of the line, hardware and installed fedora on it without an issue. What components are you talking about specifically?
Usually your main function can't be used by any other part of your program. You should move all component implementations to modules so they can be re-used elsewhere.
I don't think Apple will back down in order to appease developers. Their strategy is pretty clear: make their platform so popular people pay to play by Apple's rules. Apple could charge 50% or 70% on their app store and…

Why not interview someone willing to go on the record that will speculate the IPO value? There are plenty of articles where they interview professional investors with knowledge about such matters who go on the record.
>people familiar with the matter said Why is this line used everywhere in the news? What is the consequence of getting someone on the record for speculating the value of an IPO? It's the most frustrating and lazy part…
It looks like one core issue was designing the system around pre-determined bounds (monthly, yearly, etc). This happens in lots of systems and isn't specific to billing. A job scheduling system will have the same…
I think the promise of threads is exactly what many people want. Hopefully the product improves to meet the expectations. Some things I'd like to see: 1. Native notes like feature for long form posts I can embed and…

>If comments were on for those posts... there’s a reason why they’re not allowing comments. That is a very un-Reddit thing to do. If it's unreddit why is it a feature of reddit? (A feature, that in my opinion, is…
What if it were so easy to blend in through the APIs bc enough real users are on third party apps that use the APIs?
I think they've done everything to steer the conversation away from the topic of bots, spam, and grey market ads. If reddit is selling ad space but you can get it cheaper via vote bots, why would anyone buy ad space…
I believe the API changes are not about third party apps or LLMs (at least directly). I think it's all about bots and spam. They only want to do business with real enterprises through their API. This raises the value of…
I would agree with you, but Mr. Beast is very methodical and has the algorithm beat at this point.

If they are resource constrained then this just seems like a form of triaging where non-automated calls are prioritized. I don't see the problem with this approach if they are seeing a lot of false positives from…
I think it's more than fair to blame the media, which has had centuries to build up their reputation and credibility. They were incapable of preserving public trust during a national crisis. They have all the advantages…
Whether you blame Fox news, CNN, Trump, the deep state, the CDC, doesn't matter when addressing the failures of the state and the media. They lost trust with the public. This is measurable in polls and has created a…

Relishing in other people's actions that were driven out of fear during a crisis when our institutions (media and state) failed to keep public trust for millions. Empathy, even for those who make foolish decisions is…
