It's a forced divestment; they weren't banned but have a year to comply.

Some professions, such as surgeons, pilots, and actors, demand physical presence due to the nature of their work.

This has nothing to do with worker 'class'.

So many relatives/friends buying €800-€1000 devices that become unusable after 1/2 years.

Plastic junk.

After getting a Mac I’ll never purchase a Windows device again.

+ Terrible battery

+ Terrible build quality

+ Terrible support

+ Noise of fan having a stroke

The day that they added DRM on printer ink I threw the fully functioning printer in the bin. I’ll never buy another HP product again.

+1 Brother.

In Ireland I've seen some private dealers saying that they won't accept EVs as trade-ins (outside of manufacturer warranty) because of the liability on them if something goes wrong.

Basic model ID.3 is already €39260 with no extras.

VW seems to be trying to get a subscription model for a lot of features that come standard in most cars.

Now it gives a normal answer. I rated the response as 'Bad Response' so maybe that had an impact.

It was a new conversation. I've never mentioned Russia or Ukraine in any conversation ever.

Gemini advanced is terrible.

I asked it to rephrase "Are the original stated objectives still relevant?"

It's starts going on about Ukraine and Russia.

Why should the taxpayer foot the bill for a business unable to pay their employees a living wage.

Yeah let’s get rid of minimum wage while we’re at it.

The Verge is a "corporate messaging" website.

Interview with X CEO (Comments disabled)

Their transportation editor Andrew J. Hawkins:

```

Waymo’s driverless cars are finally ready for the highway

VW’s software division and Bosch are testing robot parking and EV charging

Hyundai says hydrogen will play a ‘prominent role’ in going carbon neutral

Kia’s ‘Platform Beyond Vehicles’ is a family of modular electric minivans for businesses

Lamborghini will measure your heart rate as you burn rubber around the track

Meet the new Tesla Autopilot, same as the old Tesla Autopilot.

Tesla is recalling another 1.6 million vehicles in China.

Tesla’s Autopilot fix ‘doesn’t go far enough.

```

I wonder which companies buy advertising on The Verge? It's crazy their anti-tesla bias.

The employer had already decided to terminate the employee's contract before the conclusion of the internal disciplinary process.

If she wasn't confident about winning, she wouldn't be pursuing the claim; clearly, she has received guidance from legal professionals.

She definitely will win.

Jim Rose, ceo of CircleCI, responded by pointing out on social media that “Paul does not speak on behalf of” the San Francisco-based company, which he declared was “committed to our customers in Israel and around the world”. Soon afterwards, however, Rose posted: “Effective December 22, Paul Biggar is no longer a director at CircleCI. We thank him for his contributions on the board and wish him the best for what’s next.”

What is this guys agenda? Seems like he’s on the path to setup a cult.

DHH 101: be slightly controversial to get free publicity.

We would have migrated to GitHub, unfortunately it doesn't have the equivalent backlog management that's in Azure DevOps.

We decommissioned all our mobile apps built with Xamarin.

Some of the Microsoft teams don't listen to user feedback.

We use Azure DevOps, feedback from years ago for basic features still not developed.

This is what the article is saying there’s a waitlist for and it’s also going to be moderated. So how is it going to be different than Twitter?

The majority or Mozilla’s revenue is from “search partnerships”.

Look at their website, it's just a twitter clone.

How will Mozilla compete with Meta, Twitter?

Content is complete garbage.

Decentralisation isn't a feature for 99.9% of people.

Digging their own grave.

For LinkedIn I found a script online which unfollows everyone. Now when I open LinkedIn it just shows default adverts.

The rent in Ireland is insane for the quality you get. My GF and I are currently living in my parents house. Collectively we earn ~€200K. New homes are in limited supply. Existing homes are poor quality but demand has increased the prices dramatically. We were looking at a new development and they increased the price by €80K. For a lot of people owning a home is becoming unrealistic.

Honestly how many companies are actually innovating, most of the time people are just imitating. I don’t use Zoom but have used Microsoft Teams for the last few years and basically nothing has changed in the app. All their “innovation” is just junk features that they remove from the app 3 months later. They have all this data on how people use the app. How haven’t I improved my productivity at work 10x using this app everyday?
