They just announced full WebXR support

Interesting... I worked for a much smaller company that used it and it was a terrible experience. I was really glad to go back to Teams...

I remember how I used to call a BBS rather than go to the internet because there was much more than just universities and their research - took a long time until there wasn't a reason to call the BBS, around the point when all the people moved their content.

Server side rendering of React applications doesn't just refer to the fact that it's generated on the server like you do with PHP.

The main difference is that there are IDs that allow the client side code to seamlessly attach event handlers (this is called hydration) to the DOM - and that there is no difference between server and client side code.

In your case, you'd have to do that manually - a huge difference (speaking as someone who used to do that with jQuery).

I am using the same IDE I always used on Linux. Anything that works there works on Mac too. The only thing not available is Visual Studio (the older, bigger one) - thankfully I don't need that one, but I wouldn't want to use it on Windows either.

Nobody decided that Russia is an enemy. Ukraine decided it wants to be in a different club - and Russia has no right to stop them from going. Nobody in Ukraine wanted to attack Russia in any way, but Russia needs Ukraine for its twisted goals.

The other club is not an inherent enemy of Russia - it was an ally all up until the 2022 invasion. The friendship even remained through the 2014 invasion, though strained, but did remain in place. Russia could've kept selling natural gas, EU could've been a happy buyer, and Ukraine could've been an EU member - nothing bad for Russia or Russians about that. It's bad for Putin's imperialism though.

BTW it's funny to talk about neonazis without mentioning the actual neonazis, Russian nationalists and white supremacists who came to fight in Ukraine in 2014 to support the imperial dreams of Putin.

Not really. There is more than enough evidence for both claims - plus anecdotal evidence as I live in a state with a million Ukrainian refugees, many of them army veterans.

Putin and his boys disagreed on national TV with you. They want to nuke Europe. Read Putin's own texts on the subject, it's very clear. And read books like Foundations of Geopolitics that are officially approved and required reading for military officers.

Why was Russia invading Ukraine, creating the need for defense by any means possible?

The situation is quite different in a state that gives you an offer you can't refuse that gets you into a situation where you're almost surely going to die vs a more (though not entirely) rule of law-based environment that gives you proper training and leadership.

Bad news is, when did that ever happen?

No, the enterprise features of Azure AD, InTune etc really are not comparable. A large enterprise can't run on Google. Sure - smaller firms can and maybe should, it's much simpler.

Software engineering. Never had to be forced to a Windows computer, fortunately. Past 5 years mostly everyone seems to have switched.

The most successful startups that haven't been founded by technical people I have seen usually didn't even have much of an idea - but they had customers and kept talking to them and created a product vision out of that. All startups should be doing that.

Spirit of the law should still apply even if it's an old law. You should change the law if you want a different outcome. Things get very arbitrary when judges can decide a law is too old to apply - that's how communists did their revolutionary courts in many European countries.

Google Workspace is not comparable. Every large enterprise seems to run on Mac and MS 365.

I'm reading it as naivity. You trust companies when you see evidence you should, and you stop trusting them when you shouldn't. Trusting a regulatory process leads you to bad decisions.

I'm not in the US, I live in Europe and health insurance is a personal thing completely unrelated to an employer. But my treatment isn't covered at all because it's not immediately life threatening and not the cheapest most traditional treatment option - a big issue with the EU systems is that it's either the regulated but usually pretty bad option, or 100% out of pocket (and the prices are not very different from what an US hospital bills). I can't just submit an invoice and get at least part of it covered. In my case I'd have problems even if I used the regulated option because there isn't an official code for my illness - it exists but only for children.

I wouldn't be able to function if I didn't go and I'm sure there's plenty of people like that in the US too... And yes, I'd go bankrupt if I didn't work in software for US company. Sucks to be poor - regardless of which continent.

The same regulatory process that allowed the Boeing Max and other catastrophic issues?

I am visiting a hospital every 2-4 weeks for years now. There is a very tiny minority of dying people. Those should of course get every regulation and help they need.

Many visitors are actually coming to shop around - meet the doctor, hear their plan, compare with others and then decide.

I don't think we disagree. There are definitely deep tech businesses that are very hard to pull off.

My point is - asking "how did they do it without a CTO" is weird, they are hiring a CTO to do it, and they're bringing their business experience and funding - valuable stuff that a tech guy probably finds annoying. The number one suggestion on this forum is to sell before building and when somebody does it, users get wide eyes?

That's simple - they find a CTO.

The really hard thing is marketing and closing big clients.

You caused the ewaste, not Apple. Why did you buy a device that you don't want to use, and why don't you sell or donate it to somebody who wants to use it?

Are you going just by these statistics?

It's nice that 60% of Viennese people have access to cheaper (not cheap!) housing in a capital city, too bad for those who couldn't get there either because of overdemand or being just outside the bracket, and too bad for those who can't afford to live in Vienna at all.

I'm not sure what's interesting about the income inequality index - that just means you can't get rich there to pay the actually large taxes so the state wouldn't need to take the bulk from slightly less poor people instead of the actually rich people. Switzerland has a worse inequality index rating and yet better social services while having lower taxes.

HDI is entirely uninteresting in this discussion - that's simply because Austria-Hungary industrialized early, it has nothing to do with the socialist policies there. The neighboring countries like Slovenia or Czech Republic have 1/4 tax rates and HDI is similar, even though both lived through many decades of communist destruction and in case of Slovenia also wars, while Austria was on the western side of the curtain. And of course Switzerland again.

People from Czechia and Slovenia used to come to Austria to make some money, that's not the case anymore - now I see many Austrians coming here, especially higher earning people like software engineers. Socialism destroys itself through this kind of brain and capital drain.

Absolutely unreal, my city just bought 100 new diesel buses. These were desperately needed and the electric option was discussed but way too expensive.

Basically every city in the country is doing everything they can to buy as much as they can before the ban.

Austria has some excessive taxes that take money away from those who can't reach the public housing because they're not deemed poor enough. People seem to get destroyed when socialists get involved and take more than half of everything they have even though they should be getting support instead.

I'm not against public housing but Austria is an especially bad answer to my question. Not sure if you have ever visited but it really isn't any utopia. The public housing is still too expensive anyways.

The statistic would just move to 36 then. It's about experience with driving, not the age.

I don't know if you're right or not, but still I'd trust a team with 10 launches of anything behind their back more than a team with their first launch, even if it goes flawless.

You said that any proper definition/understanding of self driving means...

Well it doesn't. Mercedes will gladly sell you their much less capable self driving.

Sure I agree, it'd be great if self driving meant absolutely zero interventions. The market is elsewhere though.

Cheers and best of luck
