Yes I've seen a few people experience this hell as well. To just call it a UI abstraction is completely detached from reality and how it's implemented.

The first sentence only experiencing diminishing returns can be read negative. Also everything is easier/cheaper/faster than ever for individuals and small companies to enter the hardware space.

You actually can pilot a plane without a license after some instruction and passing a medical exam. The main thing getting a license changes is the ability to fly others.
Fwiw that has been a popular blog and that post is submitted by Forrest, but that is not his blog.
A user shouldn't have to email a cofounder to get in touch with a team member. The last time I integrated stripe on a site as a final test before it went live I had my cousin make a purchase and the site got flag as potential money laundering because we had the same last name. At the time literally zero customer service. It took 8 years before stripe started doing any customer support. Cool launch pages but personally I'll never use stripe again

Who knows what that person used but they also sell a developer friendly version (although the battery isn't replaceable) https://www.amazon.com/1st-Generation-AWS-IoT-Button/dp/B01C...
Re:Netflix claims Fortnite is now a bigger competitor than HBO on Saturday January 19, 2019 @11:07PM (#18950978)
Netflix makes money from more than the subscription fee; for example product placement.
It isn't possible to create a database storing all the possible tones a non digital instrument can make.

There's a site that authenticates pieces for him: https://www.pestcontroloffice.com/whatispco.html although I don't think they'll authenticate the counterfeit Diana notes he made and obviously that wouldn't stop with approval.
In my experience it's the opposite of democratizing. The company has been around for 8 years, and it was only 3 months ago they added phone support.
None of the drops in that chart are even remotely comparable. Even the local maximum to the 52 week low over the course of months is smaller so hardly "way more". Its the largest drop in market cap in a single day ever, so its pretty uncharted territory whether a company can recover or not.

You can argue its justified but if its not ad hominem then what is it?

Cool, I think it would be nice if you could search case insensitive too.

Re:Introducing the new Snapchat on Wednesday November 29, 2017 @12:34PM (#15808879)
The operative word there was more. I also disagree that something that disappears can't be heartfelt but to each their own.
> my friend count went way down, my friend quality went way up.

I too quit around then, and I think I feel that most on my birthday. I only hear from probably a tenth the people but now when they remember on their own and text/call it means a lot more.

Re:Introducing the new Snapchat on Wednesday November 29, 2017 @12:12PM (#15808575)
Not only do I think its true of all social media, I think it's less true of Snapchat because the medium has less of a memory.

What social media do people think is more candid?

This is a bit different but in PyCharm you can set a breakpoint and then in the debugger open up a window where you can evaluate arbitrary expressions with that context before continuing.
The process requires a majority of the House, and then it goes to a trial that requires two thirds of the Senate for conviction. Considering the Republicans have a majority in both, I wouldn't get your hopes up.
I guess you don't believe something can be popular in a small community.

Well before they didn't report aws seperately so just how profitable it is was somewhat hidden.
The prop wasn't on the ballot everywhere in the area, and they collected signatures door to door for the petition in areas where it wasn't on the ballot.
