I don't entirely understand the linked chart here.

But best I can make of it, has 1/4 the # of impressions as MSM and almost half the impressions for either partisan left or right.

This is a minor issue that is showing impression numbers the equivalent of entire media organizations. How is this evidence that Youtube's algorithm does not promote radicalized content?

It doesn't appear this app is trying to be a straight up Photoshop replacement.

If that's what people are looking for they can go to GIMP. So I don't see how that answer specifically indicates why people would be unhappy with the situation on Linux.

Then your complaint is about Apple locking iMessage to Apple devices.

Which is a legitimate complaint especially since Apple had said they would be opening it up (or was that FaceTime...I'm not sure).

But that's a wholly different complaint from the fact that Apple, like nearly every other messaging service, does not allow you to export groups to other services.

By that logic WhatsApp isn't free. I have to spend hundreds of dollars upfront to buy a phone, and worse, hundreds of dollars each year to maintain a phone line to use WhatsApp.

WhatsApp doesn't provide an API so I could use it on my existing laptop over WiFi for free (the WhatsApp web requires it to be setup on a phone first).

That's what my employer also did. In addition to a lot of metrics on which they base performance and awards. In other words easily and frequently gameable made up numbers

Even if that's the case, it isn't elitist to suggest we privilege cheaper modes of transport.

Your scenario cannot scale by definition (used)

Your scenario has no answer for the externalities.

Essentially, the only reason the scenario has any sort of standing is because it's based on the idea that commuting by personal vehicle is inherently better than public transport. Which is true for most of the US but is not true for most of the places which actually don't a priori assume personal vehicles are inherently significantly better for transport.

The only people supporting nuclear are also on the left.

Nuclear's demise has nothing to do with the liberals blocking it (if they were so powerful their efforts against coal and fracking and oil pipelines may have been marginally effective) but rather the terrible economics of it vs solar/wind as well as natural gas.

They can. Uber added nothing to market other than an app, which everyone was doing for every potential business at the time anyways.

Their differentiators though were primarily the crazy amount of VC money they were willing to lose and the fact that they had absolutely no qualms about trampling about each and every law they could. To the point that they would break laws that they didn't even need to.

But asking for forgiveness when you have a ton of VC money is obviously better than not messing up in the first place.

Only good thing is thst, I hope, the market is seeing through these criminals (at best).

Extreme cold that is abnormal.and consistently abnormal can also be reflective of the effects of climate change. It's only the people who think snow disproves it that think this is an argument.

It still doesn't make sense. If this is the better approach, then why isn't it the default.

Why is it enabled (in a way that is extremely difficult to reverse) by copy pasting something in the Terminal?

I'm pretty sure this is a bug that will likely be resolved in a couple of minor updates.

Edit: Also, this is extremely user hostile. And it is security hostile. The user and securoty hostile bit isn't giving access when the user pastes a location in the terminal. The hostile bit is completely ignoring the users action when they subsequently try to disable access through the File Access dialog. And it's security hostile because the OS is making it difficult to remove access, not enable access.

I think what was ridiculously through this entire process was Boeing blaming someone else. That's pretty much been the issue right from when it surfaced. Initially it was the bad pilots, bad airlines, bad countries and lately it's been the bad software consultants.

However, it's been evident from the beginning this is a fundamental design flaw that Boeing was trying to, inappropriately, use software to make work. Something no software would be capable of doing because software could not make up for the lack of necessary information in the case of certain sensors failing.

Maybe because those who are asking for it to be broken up are not asking for it to be broken up to solve the problem that it is peppered with ads?

Maybe they have other different concerns that they think will best be resolved by breaking them up?

Our company doesn't have laptops to give out to employees. Intel has really dropped the ball. I suspect, as the article suggests, that Intel will be using these chips to supply niche applications like kiosks giving them a little more breathing room to supply current ven chips to desktops and laptops.

We're changing providers. Hopefully we will move to a company that is more AMD friendly than our current supplier.

We had 5 developers move to Canada.

They are being paid far above market value because they wouldn't agree to drop down to Canadian salaries.

Further, new hiring has shifted to Canada (we didn't hire devs in Canada at all) and there is a new office now because 5 devs is quite a few, as opposed to the single remote Canadian we used to have.

I suspect salaries are only gonna rise. At least the devs who moved from within our company are being paid well above local market value.

That sounds really strange to me. Even amongst major vim users and proponents I have never heard anyone say vimscript is good.

Maybe I don't get out enough.

It's funny because Google had a very different perspective when MS was the Monopoly we were worried about.

Well when you take the words climate change literally and ignore what it means in context, yeah, you're absolutely right.

But then you're also revealing yourself as a dishonest participant who is probably not worth discussing this issue witb

This looks really cool. I couldn't find any info on the site, but anyone know what sort of backup features are available built in?

If there isn't anything built in, what are other users of mail in a box doing to backup their data?

Just because a tool can be used for A, B or C, and you are an expert at using that tool for A does not imply that your expertise at using the tool for A makes you an expert in B and C.

The whole point of this article is to point out that a lot of common Linux tools can be used for Data Science like work (a significant part of which includes pre processing structured and unstructured text).

Wait...nuclear accidents (e.g.s Chernobyl and Fukushima) are less dangerous than wind and solar?

What sort of blatant BS is this.

Wind and solar projects are not coming in at 3-4x their costs anywhere.

So the fact that they are simply simpler projects which rarely (never?) have massive overruns due to "bad project management" is a huge financial point in their favor that is rarely factored in.

Cities in the US are more expensive due to housing policy, as you mention, but also because cities as the engine of American business and growth are subsidizing the rest of the nation. A significant chunk of every city dweller's money ends up in taxes that are transferred to far less efficient and less wealthy non city areas.

Take away the wealth transfer from cities to non urban areas and the only people living in rural areas will be the wealthiest and end of the world preppers.

Why do we believe that Uber would be the beneficiary of autonomous cars? They aren't developing them anymore, so if Waymo pushes them first why wouldn't the Google Maps app simply replace Uber, eg.

If the payments is the issue then MS chose a really terrible solution considering upgrades are free for the life of the device which is usually far greater than the cadence of paid upgrades in the past.

I agree it's solving MS's problem, but the problem it's solving is the need for MS to support 10+ years of OSes at any given time.

This is also exactly correct. The actual reason is that fossil fuels are highly subsidized in most developing countries, so the only impact this has is in reducing the subsidies paid by the government exchequer.

The idea that the developing world will benefit from cheap oil is ridiculous.

The developing world is the one suffering from the impacts of global warming. Several countries in Africa are suffering from wars worsened by climate change driven migrations. Countries like India have a mix of cities running out of water, cities flooded by water and cities drowning in pollution which is almost certainly gonna erase years of people's lives eliminating any improvements caused by better medicine.

Cheap oil, or expensive oil, are both bad for developing countries. It's literally not possible to give the hundreds of millions of people in developing countries a better future with fossil fuel driven growth.

All our thinking and planning has to start from that basic fact.

Smaller tech companies will almost certainly be better for workers.

More competitive companies mean more demand for workers and higher salaries for workers.

More competition also likely means more innovation and better prices and more choices for customers.

The only people possibly losing out even slightly are the preexisting owners.

This doesn't make sense to me. If all those things about the company and its execs are true they are almost certainly not gonna deliver the alternative you are clamoring for. In the meanwhile your money is sitting with them instead of a team that actually might

Web extensions are not limited because of any inherent limitations in technology but because of policy.

If Firefox wanted they could have created a new extension system with XUL that would also have the same limitations the web extensions do. For fairly obvious reasons they decided to transition to Web tech based extensions and used that opportunity to tighten up security as well.

Not in this case because the word base here does not refer to a "standard" level of which ultraX would be the opposite, but rather refers to a group of people who support a particular political party.

There's nothing oxymoronic about the idea that people with extreme views form the core support of a candidate or party.
