Yeah that's like getting your entire family to switch over from facebook to something else less awful - good luck.

Oh, and then getting all of THEIR connections to also download another messaging app. And so forth.

And I think the price argument against iphones isn't valid any more. The 13 Pro Max is $100 less than the Galaxy S21 Ultra. You're paying a premium for the brand new flagship phones obviously, regardless of brand.
weird you got downvoted

I agree that Apple's durability as a hand-me-down goes further in explaining this number than "convinced parent to spend $400 because green bubbles would make me an outcast"
I think it does but it requires a different kind of hustle. If you have no capital you can still collaborate with other like-minded people and companies to extend your reach while you build out your business (this is how I am expanding). It's still hustle finding these people, supporting them, getting them up and running etc. but as the basis for something sustainable it has a lot of merits.

At least...it's working so far.
I imagine if you wanted to buy $1B of cocaine it might be best to start earlier in the production cycle.
You can mitigate link sharing by counting the feed reader hits per link (anything more than two standard deviations is probably a shared link, which you can set a revocation policy for). You can reject requests to content that don’t have a non-revoked referrer. This way, they can only get your content by copy-pasting content and rehosting the feed, which is an unavoidable risk.

In any case, as Netflix’s early history shows, depending on your cost structure, link sharing is likely a net positive. It’s probably only worth prosecuting the feeds that get shared with 100s of people.

It definitely is more complicated, but the tools to make it simple are easy to build! Maybe we’ll see growth in this space. One can dream

This doesn't make sense for US citizens. In the worst case scenario, the government could seize a company's assets, including the data centers, which contains data on all its users.

In the case of FB, the US government would get that data.
In the case of TikTok, it's the Chinese government who would get the data on you, the US citizen.

Objectively speaking, it would be strictly worse if lots of data on US citizens would end up in the hands of the Chinese government, because it's a foreign government and, as we know, information is power. Data on one person is not that useful, data on millions of US citizens, even when noisy, can be extremely powerful.

We also know at this point that a feature like News Feed can be trivially used to influence what information people see and how that information is presented, which then influences the people's opinion of matters in the world, even if the information is delivered via a fun, engaging or funny medium, it's still being absorbed by the brain and the end result is the same: successful control of the information dispersed to the masses.

It's one thing for the US government to influence its citizens opinion (all governments do this for various reasons, for example to cultivate feelings of patriotism and national pride), and it's a completely different ball game if the Chinese government can influence what US citizens think of certain matters. For example, they can try to sway the public opinion towards a political candidate that is more favorable for the foreign government, thereby meddling in a foreign election, only this time it's done with a ton of plausible deniability and the foreign citizens themselves are helping out.

This doesn't mean that Facebook is good, just that it is the lesser of two evils, and, in my opinion, it's a strategic mistake on the US's part to allow TikTok to be used en masse by US citizens. I would have banned it a long time ago.

You could also replace US and China with any other two states that can control what information billions of people see on a daily basis and I would argue the same point.

Not knowing much about an area of science on which many people have spent a lot of time and effort is fine. Being dismissive about it without knowing much about it is not.
Or they had multiple containers, and only one got caught.
I hate to break it to you but it probably has nothing to do with that. We’re talking about a demographic that wants to fit in more than any sycophant humble bragger on LinkedIn. The most likely reason is certain crowds in school have iPhones.

Maybe the broke ass kids have that shoddy cheap Android. That’s like wearing Payless or knock-off sneakers. No, not me, everyone’s got Jordans mom, and the new iPhone dad. It’s almost like you don’t care about me and want me to be seen as a loser in school. Gosh.

Yeah...facebook isn't dominant because it's the best platform, it's because moving away from it requires your entire circle to move away from it as well, otherwise you're just running two platforms side by side.

Google Plus was superior to facebook but never stood a chance.

No, they are poor so they simply can't afford new things.
The basic legal principle (GDPR article 6) is that processing data about people is allowed only if a specific legal basis applies, and only to the extent that this legal basis allows it.

So before we're even talking about expectations of the availability of this data - e.g. detailed interview notes in some company HR system (personal notes of specific interviewing employees would not count if these notes are not used in the company processes) - the company must consider why do they think they are allowed to record and store that data in the first place, since the "default expectation" is that they are not. And if they have a valid reason, they are required to have their Data Protection Officer to know that they are processing this data and it's the duty of the DPO to inform these people about what exactly they are permitted and required to do with this data - so if the people recording this data have a misleading expectation, that's fully the fault of the company. Before "the company produces data (interview evaluations) based on the expectation that their internal data is kept proprietary" it's the duty of the company to ensure that this processing of private data is reviewed, verified whether that processing is lawful in the first place and ensure that the people recording this information are informed about what they can/can't/must do with it, as the law requires the company to either ensure "appropriate organizational measures" for that, or not process this data at all. If the company has their employees "simply" producing data that includes personal data of others without considering the GDPR impact, that by itself is a breach of their legal duty of Article 24 of GDPR.

In situations like these, most companies would assert that they have a specific legitimate interest (article 6.1.f) in processing the data for conducting the interview and application decision process, which is a perfectly valid justification - however, that would not necessarily grant them the right to process the data after the interview process ended with a rejection; there's no inherent right for the company to just continue storing the detailed interview notes just because, so it would be interesting to see what legal basis they assert for having that data in the first place, and IMHO in most EU companies the standard HR process now would require to discard the details after the interviews.
Yes, this is a well-reasoned and accurate summary, and also why courts are placing injunctions on some of these executive orders -- because they are shady.

The problem is that the U.S. is a Federalist system where states are supposed to take the lead on public health, and national coordination is hard with a divided Federal government.

I'm just as worried about the damage to democracy caused by the response to January 6th. January 6th set a series of destructive events in motion, but the threat of the insurrection itself could have been neutralized in minutes if someone in power had made the call to do so.
The choice is between multiple regulatory investigations not actioning this specific issue over multiple years of the some of the most intense global scrutiny on a company in recent history verses believing somebody's tangentially related anecdote.
Pretty likely this is associated with the huge increase in mental illness associated with isolation during the pandemic. The depression rate tripled from pre-pandemic levels, leading to a 20% increase in suicide rates. Obviously drug use and all the associated risks would increase due to that, but there are also a few studies showing a strong correlation between mental health and life expectancy, even after accounting for drug use.

Agreed, or in what will be a more likely case, someone who you have designated as a successor has their account compromised. Then, the attacker escalates that into an attack on your repositories. The 21-day countdown would still be a deterrent, but as an attacker it would be worthwhile to try this on every account you have successor access to and see if perhaps someone doesn't check their email.
It’s likely because the space was more valuable to Walmart for retail needs than as a McDs. It was an experiment and it turns out that people probably just went to the McDonald’s down the street.

By the way, the McDonald’s in our local hospital has been in operation 24/7/365 since the late ‘70s. It’s a symbiotic relationship I guess.

Why do you think that is?

Right, but the opening price will be gapped up from the previous day's closing price, which was before the show. It actually makes the situation worse, because the rise is truly instantaneous, without even milliseconds to get an order in before it goes up.
> The land was set aside for federal use, living in it and then complaining you don't live in a state seems insane.

People have been living in it since the beginning. The land that they live on is not owned by the Federal government. It's owned by the people who live there (or their landlords). They paid for it. They pay property taxes on it. If the Federal government wants them to move, the government can pay them whatever amount is necessary to entice them to move. Otherwise, they deserve the same right to a voice in Congress that every other US citizen has.
So what is your solution, not to fly if there are not enough passengers. Should the customer change all his plans if the plane is not full?
I spent 3 hours/day everyday for a few months straight. I'll write about it in more details in my next newsletter issue :)
Yea it does, I knew a guy at my last job (Charter) who would drive stuff from Chicago to Denver, twice a year and get paid $20k each time. It was always with a one way u-haul rental and the cash was delivered to him weeks after the drive. He asked if I wanted to ride along and I couldn't say no quick enough.
Who is GitHub’s successor? This is a nice feature and conveys lots of info about individuals if revealed. It would be neat to see it on org accounts and for companies. It GitHub explicitly named that everything goes to somewhere (eg, sr.ht) when they croak as a corporation.
Can you say more about this pick?
Synthetics should be legal too. There won't be anything for them to move to if we actually move forward with legalization and regulation of psychoactives.
I think a lot of the allure is brand recognition, along with better UI. When I have to use an android I’m always taken back by how clunky it feels. Android phones also have the (potentially overblown) stigma of being cheap, or owned by tight-arse people. It partly deserves this association. The lack of final polish on a lot of the software and hardware over the years has gradually pushed people over to iPhones. The experience on an iPhone is consistent, the hardware is always good, the ‘prestige’ is there too.
I've been an Android fanboy, but I'm starting to hit a point that I'll probably switch to iPhone. Like clockwork, my Android phone becomes unstable after about 2 years. Everything slows down, lock ups happen more frequently.

On top of that you have constant tweaks and changes - often on useless things. This year, an update "improved" the clock app. It's now harder to set alarms - and about once per week I get an alarm going off without any UI to disable it. I just have to reset my phone.

Why in the world does a stable, reliable feature like the clock app suddenly introduce a major change.

Context matters. This entire article is about inner-city suburban streets in Britain, especially London with its high population density, in which pedestrians (i.e. gaggles of school kids, mums with pushchairs, people with dogs, independent cats, foxes) share the pavements and roads with cyclists, cars, sometimes even the occasional horse and carriage (even still today, yep).

We're NOT talking about stop-start commuter traffic on an American interstate.

There are a LOT more moving not-car objects which do not and will not follow the motorist's rules of the road, on these leafy suburban streets.

Phone use when idle at stop lights means you might not spot something until it's too late. Hell, even when you open your door when parked up you have to check your mirrors so you don't accidentally clothes-line a passing cyclist - that's a point that's drilled into us by good driving instructors.

As the people operating the industrial machinery, we have a duty of care to always treat it as such, and keep the others around us safe. Sorry, but your boredom is of little or no concern in relation to the safety of others. Just keep off the damn phone. Arguably even handsfree kits are a bit of a bad idea wrt concentration span and task switching - but they exist, so if you need to use your phone as a phone, you can do so without taking your eyes off the road. But otherwise, leave the damn rest until you're at home!!! The rest of your apps can wait.
Obituaries seem hard to link to a specific individual. Step 1, find a repo managed by someone with a common name (eg, Jane Smith). Step 2 wait for anyone in the world with that name to die. Step 3 wait for them to go on a long break and present the obit to GitHub for access.
When I spoke to Miguel, he said both Alex and Nat were "assholes when they were drunk."

He also said that Nat had "Hurt him deeply" and they don't talk much anymore. From what I can tell Miguel stayed friends with Alex and congratulated him on the launch of Copilot even knowing about the abuse that happened to me in greater detail than I had shared publicly.

It isn't! I started without any development experience and built an MVP in 3 weeks with user sign up, pricing and subscription using some getting started guides and stakoverflow. Not best practise or anything, I'm sure you laugh if you saw some of the code. Taking card payments was something I was worried about but Stripe has pretty good documentation for a layperson.
This is an important point, and I agree. I wouldn’t be surprised if the likelihood were even higher than that.
All of the Affinity products are top notch. I wanted a simple vector tool and ended up liking Affinity Designer so much I picked up a course to learn it more in-depth. The best part is their pricing model doesn't suck, so I'm happy to pay for their wares.

I realize that I'm probably the outlier here in the US market, but absolutely I'd rather have a 3 month trial period (not only so you can evaluate me, but so I can evaluate you to make sure it's mutual).

I'm fairly confident in my ability to deliver value in the first couple of weeks on a project, so would much prefer this to having to spend time grinding leetcode puzzles that I'm not innately good at.

Note: a large part of this perspective is the privilege of feeling like I could get another job pretty easily, and having a sizeable emergency fund that I could draw from to continue the search if things didn't work out. So you may be filtering out people who are not in such a fortunate position.

Made me wonder what the real length would be. Per this random website [0], a 5/8th inch rubber-vinyl hose weighs 2.52 oz/foot, A.K.A. 234.39 g/m. Therefore, 19.76 tons of cocaine (or, you know, whatever) in hose-equivalent would measure 76.48 km.

A lot of this does depend on the last name. Nobody wants to be the twentieth "Mary Smith" in the room, but nobody wants to stand there spelling "Theophilus Schwarzenegger" every time they go to the dentist's office either.

I strongly suspect that Scott is trying to decipher a moral of the story, while missing the fact that Don’t Look Up is less of a parable and more of a tragedy.

There is no moral to the story. There is nothing to take away here. The point is the Molochian systems at play are driven by maligned incentives, and therefore doomed to apocalyptic failure. You and I; we are fucked.

Scott is trying to glean epistemical meaning from this work, and it’s like trying to blood-let a stone.
