Ah, so you are against ads! At least the way ads are today. With that I mean that the way ads today mostly focus on manipulating over informing is effectively hindering your ability to choose.

Huh, thats weird. I am from Norway, and I have always used domainname.shop, a Norwegian service. .party seems to be at around 7.49€ a year (bar the first year promotion)

It is not a super fancy website, and the company is pretty old, but I don't really need a lot from my DNS provider anyways.

This feels like a uniquely American advice. I have had pretty heated, but not damaging, discussions with people on the completely different side of the political spectrum here in Norway. I can't remember a single time I have cut someone out for having a different political opinion.

Maybe the loneliness problem is partly connected to the American political system at this point in time?

I mean, yeah, sort of. But a lot of the design is still really bad. I am saying a lot, because I found one I like, Zorin. It is a properly pretty Linux distro. They are the first Linux distro that I feel actually have understood the value of spacing between icons and other places. Every single other Linux distro I have tried feels cluttered and messy. It is so simple, just a little more room for things, balance margins and padding just a little bit better. Gah. (And yes, I feel liquid glass on mac is a huge setback in terms of UI beauty)

It gets worse the more you think about it. When you are paid by how much attention you give, clickbait and ragebait thrives.

In addition, I think you have to be sort of selfish to become ultra-wealthy. At some point people who believe that they became rich not by their own merit would start to distribute some wealth around. While selfish and egotistical people would hoard all their wealth, compounding it into ultra-richness.

Haha, yeah, I am reading the book these days, and I clearly remember thinking that those effects seemed really exaggerated.

There is a _significant_ difference in the damage done in a manned aircraft and unmanned aircraft. To even imply that the same laws would apply is absurd.

Norway has 5 million inhabitants, it sets the precedent for other countries to do something similar with fines scaled for their population. At that point it might start to hurt.

Maybe if you could tag the root comments the same way? So when you come from browsing #formula1 you see #formula1 tagged comments first? And when you start a new root comment it defaults to being tagged from where you came from? But you could also add #funny if it is a funny comment? That could be cool

Have you tried having an always on video meeting for your team? Our team was fairly similar, and for a time felt like we lost a lot during the lockdown. But an always on team-video meeting really saved us. It has its drawbacks, interruptions become a lot more disruptive and emoting is harder with a smaller face, but there are advantages that more than weigh up for this, instantly sharing the screen with the entire team is really useful, and not having to travel several floors to help people lowers the barrier for helping people in other parts of the organization. And with the always on video meeting people can even drop by to say hello. It also helps focus the team on one thing, which is often a good thing. People can still do their thing on the side, but working as a team on one focused task is a lot easier.

He did not even say america was an authoritarian regime, you made that argument up yourself

Nice whataboutism. Are you trying to say as long as there are worse authoritarian regimes exists critiquing the American regime is bad?

I once integrated IFTTT with google sheets to automatically add a line to a spreadsheet when I entered and exited work. And then made some more pages in the sheet in order to have it all neat and orderly for timekeeping. A huge advantage was that I could correct small mistakes whenever I wanted, so it didn't matter much if the integration itself was a bit spotty.

My best attempt at a TL;DR: TrustCor had some connections to an app in which the android version contained spyware. They claim it was placed by a malicious previous employee, no name given. But a recently deceased key founders son was heavily involved with the company that made spyware. I think TrustCor's claim is that the son was only an investor in both firms and therefore had no direct involvement. This seems to not be the case, he is listed as "Key Principal" in a directory-entry about the spyware-company and the person is also mention as an employee of TrustCor in the emails.

I agree, the disease itself might not have killed as many, but the effects of the pandemic most likely did. It was by far the largest deviation from the norm during the time and therefore carries by far the largest responsibility of excess deaths (as excess deaths are deaths outside of what would be ordinary).

Oh wow this is great I have always wanted to Learn to write haikus

I think he means that it is a completely different government, not because just the people it has changed, but because the ideals and morals it represents are completely different. And the people it represents are completely different. And the methods it uses are completely different. And the land it represents are completely different. And so forth. I don't know how much have to change in order for it to be a different government, but I would say that the last 60 years have completely changed it.

I would also prefer it if you would write down a bit more on why you are disagreeing with the first point and not just that you disagree, it doesn't seem very productive to me.

Have you given notion a try? It sort of feels like one of those tools that are so general they can actually compete with spreadsheets and emails and simple lists. And pretty user-friendly to boot. I have started using it for more and more simple lists and other personal stuff.

If the popups were actually following GDPR then people wouldn't accept. But 90% of these popups are not. It is clearly stated in GDPR that it should be as easy to opt-out as opt-in, and it is my firm belief that if this was implemented a lot more people would probably opt out. Oh well, the fines will hopefully start rolling out and maybe we get less asshole design.

The tag/folder system is not specifically useful just for developers and the only other major feature is integration with GitHub.

As far as i can see, this is not bookmarking for all developers, but rather the subset of developers that use GitHub. Although this might be a rather large part of developers (maybe even most), it would be misleading to imply that this is for all developers.

The Commission in question is The European Commission.
