Why is it sad?

You can do this with Groups in Google Workspace pretty easily.

Yeah, my mom would totally understand that prompt.

This is not realistic for most startups. You’d spend all your time reviewing packages and no time building.

A formatter is pretty essential when working in a team. It saves tons of time wasted on code formatting in code reviews.

Feels pretty smooth on my iPhone 13.

Curious what makes it a mess?

I believe Notion uses them.

In Barcelona (and I think all of Spain), your 1-month deposit is kept by the state and is automatically returned to you unless the landlord can prove that you did something that entitles them to it.

Couldn't you make the same argument about email? It's an open protocol but anyone can block you.

Even though that's the case, I think email is much more open than WhatsApp or Signal, and a big part of that is the fact that it's a federated open protocol.

And yet they still sent him to die in prison

Instead of condescending to them, why not try to help the project be more efficient with resources? It is an open source project after all.

I don’t think it’s via JS, it’s via WebAssembly. WebAssembly doesn’t use JS, it’s separate, although you can interface with WASM via JS.

I do if he’s going to make a generalization about an entire continent of people

Someone showed me this a couple years ago and my mind was blown!

Yeah I like the idea of if it’s no longer receiving firmware updates but I suspect the tech companies would get around that by releasing symbolic updates that just bump the version number.

I would prefer something like after 5 years they have to unlock the bootloader and allow people to install anything. So you have 5 years to make a profit and then you have to open up the device.

Which is a shame.

I have fond memories of visiting my grandparents in Florida and going to their backyard to pick oranges and grapefruits to make fresh juice in the morning.

It’s unfortunate the orange lobby can ban something that just seems so Florida to me.

They do when it’s shared them as a link

My understanding was that Betamax had inferior licensing terms, and that it was Sony’s greed that sunk Betamax.

It would be really classy if MS forgave that debt, especially considering the service is a public benefit.

What are you referring to here? Could you provide some links for context?

Recently made the same switch.

I went back to Firefox and haven’t looked back.

I believe it comes from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

What's the difference between an American oligarch and a Russian oligarch? Aside from the nationality.

Regular tourism is bad, but rocket tourism is a new kind of bad because it puts pollutants in the upper atmosphere and we really don't know what the effects of that will be.

Maybe I'm weird, but I don't usually close VS Code, so this isn't an issue for me.

Unless the “west” doesn’t include Europe, this is incorrect. Europe has extensive train and metro systems.

Secondly, I’m not sure how driving combustion engine cars has better environmental outcomes than electrified trains. Even if the trains weren’t electrified, they’re still orders of magnitude more efficient than a car that generally has 1-2 people in it.

100% agree, like hiring Nazi scientists to kickstart your space program.

Wernher von Braun, probably the most prominent German rocket scientist who was a pioneer of the US space program, was a Nazi.

What were they doing for 2 weeks?
