Yeah, because they built it. If people were using Linux everywhere, the situation would be different.
One company's margin, is other company's opportunity.
Well, 'theft' is more of an artistic licence. It's a breach of intellectual property rights owner.
LOL. Does intellectual property exist, or not? If yes, then it can be stolen. If no, then it is fine to take any source code, any photo, any information, and do whatever I want with it, right?
Pirating of course exists. You might rebrand it, but hardly as hero-, more like theft-. Theftbay would sound good to me.
Is it because of moderation or because people come here to learn about STEM & tech? You could have HN for politics, or art and philosophy.
This is exactly how I don't want to build my apps. As much logic on the backend as possible makes it easier to prevent concurrent changes, support multiple frontends, debug while having the whole env under control etc.…
We were building decent apps long before React. Even pre-web. I remember, how quickly I could create Delphi desktop app with drag & drop UI builder more than 2 decades ago. If we speak about generic ERP, you could make…
No, you should tie the squatter, drive him to the middle of wilderness, and leave him there. So he will no longer have such bad ideas.
If your view was true, we would have a super-successful middle class here in Europe. We don't, quite the contrary. The UK used to be on par with the USA. Now, it's stagnant since 2008. Other countries are falling behind…
It depends on how you measure it. A kid from independent school with AAA is going to be worse than a state school AAA kid. But state school AAA kid might be 3-A* kid in independent school and might do better. For…
Well, yes. Everyone needs to try harder. In China, they speak about 996 (working 9am to 9pm 6 days a week; and since we speak about education, Chinese kids often learn from 7am up to 9pm, and when they are getting ready…
Well, when you as a parent, basically get your 9-year-old, work as many hours per year, as a full-time employed adult, so your child reaches its full potential, you expect, that this possibility will continue in all…
The genes of your parents? Or now, for $20/month OpenAI? Or for pennies through OpenRouter?
As if it isn't true. And I say it as someone who went to a state school, just like my parents, grandparents...
I am not sure, if it isn't so intensive in other schools. It is so intensive in our prep school. All kids aren't equally smart. Not all kids can also handle such a regime. It isn't for everyone. Those, who succeed in…
> if they think you're really smart, have great potential, and then you'll be of the caliber to get 4 A* no question if you had rich parents Assumed, they really are 4 A* material. If not, what might happen is, that…
By bad, I mean being in a bad situation. I don't say people are evil for not having much money. I grew up in a family with very low income (my dad was earning about £12000 per year, when he retired a few years ago, my…
Well, isn't it because kids in independent school are in the school from 8am till 6pm, including Saturdays, since the age of 9, and by the age 11 they board, and all their lives revolve around learning? In my sons' prep…
When you are a talented child born into a bad family, your success is to go from £1 to £10M. If you are a talented child born to a millionaire, your success is to go from £10M to £1bn. If you are a dumb child born to a…
Oh yes, I have kids in a prep school where half of the class goes to Eton, and the rest to Winchester, Harrow, Seven Oaks, Derby... Now, for the past few years, almost no parents want to send kids to Eton. They know how…
When you compare 1:83 vs 1:2600, it is so big difference, it deserves bold statements. In the UK, there's 1.5 million kids playing footbal. 1:83 ~18000 kids play in any professional club. 1:2600 ~580 kids get to play in…
It might come over as appalling, given the whole culture has shifted towards: "Nobody is dumber! Every child deserves a medal." Which isn't true, and never was. I get why we do that with kids in Reception and Year 1.…
There are studies that show how heritable intelligence is. Very. It is quite common people say, that something is only a correlation and not causation. But if you can point to a common denominator, that has been shown…
Maybe statistically gifted child is more often than not born to parents who were gifted too. Then, they read more to the child, speak more with him. And maybe either have higher disposable income, or liberty to…
