hahahhahahhahahhahahah

Why reinvent the wheel? Use Wordpress/Ghost etc

Google search sucks so hard these days. Absurdly shitty.

Needs to be unfucked via antitrust IMO they have lost their way.

Just switch to Windows and WSL. For most cases, it works just great/not noticeably slower.

There's a lot of bullshit on Windows too but nothing near OSX levels of wannabe big brother shit.

Can't think of a better long term short right now in the market than Apple (and sister cult Tesla but the electric story is at least in the early days so they may do ok)

lol this article casually talks about how he'd have to run the business himself "(not hard though)"

I don't think you realize that when you get to extreme wealth, your time is the most precious thing you have. Having a month more of free time every year is really priceless.

He made a good deal.

I'm one of them. But the graph is going down and engagement is going down faster, hence the frantic acquisition of anything else that gains traction - IG, WA etc.

Tiktok won't sell and their curve is convex so let's see what happens in the next couple years.

lol FB trying to fuck over 3rd party sellers and Amazon is like go ahead chumps we've been at this for decades.

Seriously though who the hell trusts FB. Nobody. They should fold.

This idiot has clearly never built anything in his life.

Blogger -> VC blogger.

Unfortunately these tiny side projects are not the answer. They'll never get traction because they're not better devices.

The answer is to either hack Android/iOS so you can patch out all the bundled bs or to regulate them and force them to offer a "clean" OS version.

The 3700X is very slightly lower on performance per $ but it does have 8 cores and 16 threads so if you're going to be compiling code it's totally worth it.

The 3900x has been selling for $400 which is also amazing value.

Intel CPU market is behind after many years. Long live AMD design + Taiwan manufacturing.

The stock market in nominal terms means very little when the currency has been grossly inflated.

Purchasing power is what's important.

About fucking time. Search is the big one but please don't neglect Android and Chrome.

And take Apple to task as well - their app store policies and new app signing requirements for OSX are absurd.

Amazon has just started abusing it's monopoly so they'll be in the next antitrust wave I imagine and get away here.

Don't even get me started on Whatsapp.

Consistently anti-user and competition crushing behaviour in tech should be dealt with forcefully. Not some 5 billion $ chickenshit fine please.

Regulation is an essential market force. Level playing fields and all that.

It often over extends, misses the target and/or doesn't address root causes which is why you hear a lot of hate.

When enough people in the right positions become incentivized to act, you'll see change.

Just wait until governments actually start attacking cryptocurrencies. They're dumb and slow but when they finally catch on, the game is up.

All these stupid glorified link lists have never been backed by anything other than speculation and eventually market forces will always win.

HTML in JS feels so wrong, I'll never get used to React-land. Feels like the simplest 2 page, 2 action apps now need a hundred modules, all kinds of weird naming conventions and config dependency spaghetti and of course a complex build system for what would otherwise be a few lines of plain old JS.

Rails 6 now webpacks 100s of KB of js for a new blank app. wtf if going on.

As a developer, nothing sounds worse than a bunch of people typefarting and expecting everyone else to read their stupid thoughts.

If you want to type, please do it in an IDE.

If you don't think lockdowns have dramatically reduced the number of infections, you are incorrect.

More visitors may kick off more chains of infection (so higher numbers) but that's just linear growth. Stopping exponential spread is what prevented something far worse than what we have seen.

A) Does he have any financial interest in PreDxion Bio? This sounds like another smaller startup claiming bullshit.

B) Testing for O2 levels using already cheap + widely available pulse oximeters is probably an insufficient but necessary measure.

This is 100% true for later stage companies with established products/stakeholders and 100% false for early stage startups.

I have found product market fit 3 times in my life. Each time was with an extraordinarily shitty, unmaintainable, low quality codebase. But those shitty codebases iterate the end product faster and the speed of iteration is all that matters when you are trying to make your worthless startup become a useful company. Once you find what your users want, 100% it will be rewritten from scratch in a scalable, robust, thoughtfully designed way anyway.

With you on the equity bit.

Facebook Portal meets your "strict" privacy standards? GTFO Mozilla, stick to web browsers

Does India have these machines? Can we easily replicate the tests here?

We are approaching our peak in 3-4 weeks and with current testing capacity totally fucked.

I know many people in Government and on official Covid response team to get the ball rolling if this is a real possibility.

Wasn't SEO, it was a Google's "Suggest over Search" strategy, followed by the completely predictable bastardization of organic results by internal groups.

Biz ops says increasing revenue for [random Google bs] by ranking Y over Z in the results, so it happens. M&A says Rotten Tomatoes won't give us all their data, their users and their firstborns so they won't show up, even on page 2.

This is literally what antitrust was created for. Companies do this naturally when they get too successful, it's on us to remind them who pays the bills.

By us I mean the US govt so we're basically fucked.

Your worst case is correct but % population infected drops dramatically with lock down. The countries with better infrastructure (richer, Western) will likely see ~1-2% of their population infected and a death rate under 1%

International Year of Shittiness more like :/

This has been circulating for a few days now. It's bogus.

There is absolutely 0 peer reviewed papers or double blind controlled studies that prove this.

Need good specs and app ecosystem but I love this.

First person to make a phone with hardware switches for gps, bluetooth, wifi, cellular and microphone gets my money.

Since 2008, most of the jobs created have been service jobs. The low unemployment everyone keeps on about is covering up the fact that the people who got employed got shittier jobs.

This thing is going to be a bloodbath in the US. We'll probably see a Democratic wave in November.

The US and China are at war. The last Cold War kind of gave us the internet so hopefully we fund some big ambitious tech this time too.

When you decouple income from output or wages from work, you're essentially devaluing work and incentivizing people to work less or (more destructively) work worse.

It's not an absurd thought at all, it's a very natural solution to propose in environments like we have today. It's also been tried in many different countries in many different time periods. Leads to failure every single time.
