They do still sell physical copies.

I think a lot of people are stuck in 2023 when thinking about AI quality. It's gotten so much better that it's basically a totally different product now.

It isn't perfect, but it's certainly useful.

> But this is not to tell every Safari user that they are irrational or wrong in any way for using Safari over Chrome (or any other browser, for that matter). Does Safari use more battery than Chrome? In these tasks it sure seems to, but it’s not by a massive amount, potentially costing you about 0.5% of your battery life every hour. Is that enough for you to switch browsers if you prefer Safari’s UI or reliability or privacy options? I suspect not.

Most of the organizations/departments running wordpress aren't interested in customized software builds and all of the infrastructure that requires. They want something they can pay a simple monthly fee for, and host it with a company that deals with security, backup, etc.

There's no practical reason we can't have good public transit AND better cars.

I think you the nail on the head. Go to any hobby sub on Reddit and you see the same story play out.

If they know it's a url, all they need to do is wrap it in an <a> tag. Laziness probably wins out though.

> And if the dues doubled in just three years then you bought into a mismanaged HOA, which makes it worse.

Not necessarily true. Our HOA fees doubled precisely because of drastic insurance premium hikes. There wasn't much that could be done by them to avoid that, and in fact they worked hard to reduce some of those premiums the following year, which resulted in a lower monthly fee for everyone.

This matches my experience with human too FWIW.

How many billions of people start their day by getting one Scotch Bonnet (or two smaller ones), two oranges, lime and a piece of ginger into a cold press and then drinking it in one go on an empty stomach?

I would be worried about long term damage. In 10 years you might be in a world of hurt from this. At the very least I would let your doctor know that you are doing this and see what they think of it.

> all i see is retargeted ads for stuff I already bought.

IMO, nothing exposes the folly behind targeted ads as much as this.

TBF - It still does "just work," The fact that it doesn't completely fit into your (and my) preferences doesn't really change that, and if that's the standard, then everything will fall short of it.

Building production facilities isn't like flipping a switch.

Early Facebook was kind of a great mix. It had enough people on it, it was making money, and the advertising was much more reasonable. At the time it really was a place to connect with IRL friends.

I really doubt that 30% productivity gain would result in 30% developers losing their jobs. Believing this would require an assumption that businesses and economies will never grow.

Those are all products.

It’s almost as if the roles/titles aren’t the determining factor.

Most of what's happening in the word can be boiled down to either someone craving power, or someone in power desperately struggling to hold on to it.

Unless you are listening through the same studio monitors in the same room or headphones as the mixing engineer, it will never be the same.

IMHO, people place too much importance on "accuracy". While accuracy might be objectively measured, it means nothing when it comes to individual taste.

For an independent artist, exposure matters more than album sales as it leads to ticket sales.

For large labels, exposure is a solved problem and album sales are all that matters.

They are all trying to maximize revenue, they just have different ways of going about it.

At the scale these companies operate and the number of actual scammers they block because of their 0 - 100 policies, I can see how they got there. I bet all of us have had the luck (?) of out card being blocked because someone out there was able to get a hold of the credentials. Collateral damage like this, as devastating as it is to the individual, is probably a drop in the bucket for the company.

I'm not excusing this. What happened here shouldn't happen, and there should be quick resolutions and explanations available to the aggrieved parties.

If the tool doesn't adhere to those standards, the resulting signature isn't legally compliant (at least, not in a way that satisfies corporate structures).

A great example is the DotCom bubble. Wiped out a lot of capital but it really did transform the world.

Read the thread again. You lost the plot. Pay attention to the usernames.

Again, that's what I'm saying. We are in agreeance but you really seem to want to argue.

The original Bard's Tale was my first RPG and I've been hooked ever since.

Yes, that's my point.
