Why do you think this comment is helpful?

No.

“You didn’t write it, why should I read it?”

Seems like a perfectly reasonable stance.

It wasn’t slavery as they were paid and could be expected to be discharged at the cessation of hostilities.

Conscription is as old as society itself.

The irony of suggesting that this site is useful.

Lol, I've held a bike licence for over a decade, riding in the busiest cities in the UK.

When the AI bubble pops. It will, and it will be glorious.

Metal and food are useful, though.

No one was "duped" CEOs tend to look out 10-20 years in the future

Lol.

The ambulance with the bright flashing lights? ANC doesn't dim your eyes. This is absolute nonsense.

You should be wearing ear protection in any case. The fact that the AirPods have a published SNL is a bonus.

No it isn't. Presumably you're trying to ban radios in cars as well?

Why do you think these are board games? The article is describing a youth club, for which there is no market as there is no profit to be made from it.

What people generally want is time, and then if you have time you obviously need to spend it somewhere. If not work or home, then literally a third space.

t’s hard to answer and I think partially for better or worse why markets are often a useful tool to o help figure it out

The point of the article is that the markets are blind to this sort of social good.

anecdotes aren't citations.

I have found that the fog generating alarm systems are the ones that will stop burglars in their tracks.

If they can't see, they're not going to hang about and if they've tooled up with NV then that's a whole different threat model.

Yes, because it's nonsense and those 250m humans need to get off Twitter.

Citation very much needed.

“Its riff”

I migrated from gmail to Migadu. They have a webmail client, but they make a point that they Do Standards.

They also let you host as many domains as you like and the servers are all EU based.

No. Mac window management is inexplicably awful.

That’s because they cannot invent anything. They’re reductive, not creative.

A judge hearing a routine administrative order in the English insolvency courts spied something amiss in the drafting and the judgement takes us through the perils of a) poor chatbot use and b) the reputational risk of said use.

1) there is more to the world than software development

2) there is no profit. There is barely any revenue, the only money is continuous injections of VC cash and some frankly Enron-like book keeping.

Those offences also include, as well as ‘hurty words’, threats to kill, bomb hoaxes and harassment matters.

The legislation covers all types of communications including phone calls and letters, and because the authors haven’t bothered to drill down into the stats it is impossible to pick out the ‘hurty word’ offences from (for example) someone threatening to rape and murder an MP on X, or engaging in a campaign of harassment against their ex-partner.

I think it’s safe to assume that they are bleeding cash.

The only time I go into a bank is to deposit cash, and that is very rare.

I have no idea why people think in-person banking is superior, it is a pain in the arse.

That said, my bank predates all the fintechs by decades and was phone-first before smartphones.

It has no judgement at all.

There are plenty fleeing Substack, and at considerable cost when a Substack subscriber decides to chargeback because they're no longer writing on Substack.

I am regretting letting my schlubstack.com domain expire now.

Oops, someone forgot to not be a bellend in public.
