Understandable for a startup, but once the company has been owned by Google for years they should have migrated to Google's OAuth by now right? Seems inexcusable for Google to leak user data to another company. Buying a Google product you would expect some data to be collected by Google, but definitely not Facebook.
Re:More than 1/3 of all access to Google is now over IPv6

Pure conjecture as I don't know how they're collecting the location data, but I imagine all Google traffic from China is going through a VPN. So maybe the vast majority of VPNs used by Chinese users are IPv4 only?

The work I've seen recently from them on multi-agent play seems to indicate this is a problem they're very successfully working on. https://youtu.be/kopoLzvh5jY
Re:Minimum Wage Still Can’t Pay For A Two-Bedroom Apartment Anywhere

Nobody aims to remain at minimum wage... The problem is we've been doing a great job of hollowing out the middle of our economy and replacing it with a relatively small amount of upper middle-class tech jobs and massive VC backed profits. This often leaves minimum wage jobs the only option for people who used to make more but their career tanked for reasons outside their control

Yes, nobody writes bug free code and that's why having a car that can't update software OTA is a good thing. Got it. I do enjoy knowing that if a bug crops up I have to schedule an appointment at the dealership and take a day off work to drop it off to be upgraded instead of waking up to a bugfix having been already deployed.

When we pay less than $10/gb for ram and our systems have 32 gb and more, I do consider it acceptable. As long as the speed of development and feature implementation is sufficiently improved of course.
