1986

Uber tried to do this, they geofenced Cupertino for a feature so it wouldn't appear during app review

But people like to watch sports together, not alone

> Salesforce, and LinkedIn, which they bought after they were monopolies already (and owners only sold exactly because of the fear of saying no, which the article paints very well)

Microsoft didn't buy Salesforce.

And I'm always amazed by how much some other people think the free market can do no wrong and should be treated in a completely laissez-faire manner.

YouTube TV !== YouTube

YTTV is their "cable" product

"mostly isolationists" except for wanting to kick off a war in the Middle East so Jesus can come back

The Federalist Society

DEFLATE was created / implemented / speced / whatever word you want to apply by Phil Katz no earlier than 1989

Yeah I find this one exhausting too because meanwhile in German "half six" is exactly that, "halfway to six"

You need to know JS to be a React guy though and that's easily transferable to another JS framework or other frontend work, where is Dart used other than Flutter?

> Would you live in an apartment 15 feet wide and 50 feet deep?

Isn't this basically a railroad?

They do, with uBreakIFix providing fulfillment: https://store.google.com/us/magazine/preferred_care?hl=en-US

Decriminalization and legalization are distinct things. Legalization means just that, the act becomes legal. Decriminalization means that the act isn't legal but the perceived severity is reduced and punishment for it is moved out of the bounds of the criminal justice system (e.g. getting caught with a joint becomes a ticket, like a parking ticket or an open container ticket, instead of sending someone to jail)

It's more than just good stuff rotting. It's a fundamental lack of care, or maybe inability to ship anything that represents a big iteration. On the Google Analytics side, they are preparing to turn off data collection from the existing version of Analytics in 6 months and have been telling everyone to migrate to the new version for months now - but their "migration guides" are missing crucial technical detail, fall out of sync with the state of the new product a mere month or so after publishing, or contradict each other. It's like the whole effort of documentation has just been outsourced to the world of blogspam. Meanwhile, they started aggressively pushing for users to migrate their data collection when the new product itself didn't support some of the most basic use cases that needed to be migrated. Something is just off with Google's ability to ship these days.

If you're talking about the Biden administration's student loan forgiveness plan, I think you've been a bit misled about the "lawyers/doctors" part - you have to be making under $125k/yr ($250k/yr if filing as married) to qualify for forgiveness, and the vast majority of eligible loans are undergraduate, not graduate. So it would likely be extremely rare for well-paid doctors or lawyers to have their loans forgiven through this program - unless they were working in lower-paid positions (think rural doctor or public defender - arguably exactly the type of roles we should aim to encourage people into with programs like this!)

Bloomberg is reporting similar. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-11-08/meta-plat...

I watched one of these a few months ago - VBA was allowed, but the whole thing was very clearly about Excel specifically and all of the competitors came from the finance world. Honestly, I saw way less cool use of formulas than I was expecting - a ton of competitors had an approach of "make a big data table and use Goal Seek". Maybe the All-Star is different?

Isn't One Medical's entire business model / pitch to consumers predicated on the fungibility of providers, though? i.e. you can almost always see a OM provider on pretty short notice, it's just not guaranteed to be the same provider you saw last time

You're also more likely as a civilian, on a per capita basis, to be killed by a gun than you are as a cop.

But the Chromatics version is even better.

NYC has this too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_City_steam_system

I'm not saying shoplifting is moral, but to play devil's advocate here:

Walmart, to take one example, is one of the top employers of medicaid and food stamp recipients (https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/19/walmart-and-mcdonalds-among-...), essentially forcing the government to make up the gap from the incredibly low wages that they pay their employees and enabling them, in turn, to make more profits. Is that stealing from the government / other taxpayers? If you felt that way, you probably wouldn't see much harm in stealing a couple of bucks worth of stuff back out of Walmart's deep, deep pockets.

Anyway, I think that's just one example of why people may feel differently about stealing from an individual versus stealing from a massive, faceless, profitable corporation.

The Viet Cong were 5 times more evil than the USA?

Why? It's a 0.05% difference, seems pretty small to me.

So the utility of crypto is to violate sanctions?

You'll notice the totals are the same (673 + 2439 = 3112, 490 + 2622 = 3112), the changes are likely due to the counties' flipping in elections.

We gain massive societal benefit from the existence of cars, what equally large societal benefit is gained from the easy availability of firearms?

There's a distinction between searching for info within a Slack community (Slack handles this well) and searching _from the outside_ for info that only lives within a Slack community. As more and more communities that used to live on public forums migrate to Discord or Slack, that knowledge is basically impossible to find from the outside (Google) if you're not already a member of the Discord or Slack instance. From what I understand, it's this latter use case that Linen is targeting.
