To imply that Mudge was responsible for Twitter's poor security practices when he only worked at the company for the past two years makes me believe that the allegations are true and the leadership is absolute shit.

Also, implying that the dude who worked at DARPA and, maybe even more impressive, who was part of L0pht is incompetent is ludicrous.

Sounds pretty typical for any country specific subreddit.

By definition it has to be any task otherwise it wouldn't be general. What tasks wouldn't an AGI be able to perform and still be an AGI?

Libraries as a public space for intellectual work and living in a increasingly digital society are more important than ever. Tons of people are dependant on libraries to pay bills, get healthcare, communicate with government agencies and what not. Some of us just need a place where we can work on our laptops without having to go to a loud cafe.

> This is explicitly a focusing effort for me. I could write a $20M check myself, but knowing that other people's money is on the line engenders a greater sense of discipline and determination.

Dude doesn't even need the money...

You need more research to understand the customers and their needs but I think will the right packaging and marketing you can probably find a market for this idea.

Some questions that may or may not be useful:

* Who is realistically experiencing enough pain that they would pay for this service?

* What psychological or social customer needs are not satisfied my the market?

* If Apple launched this service, how would it be? What about your local city admin? Hoe about a non-profit?

* What are the top 5 competing alternatives and what are their pros/cons?

* How would you prototype this idea with just 100 dollars and 2 days? What about a physical prototype over 5 days?

* Someone is ready to pay a premium price for this service. Why? Who? When? Where?

Organizational entropy manifests itself in many ways, one of which is the constantly fucking around with existing products without creating any real value. Add in-house warfare between various teams over corporate benefits and resources and you end up with a culture where it totally makes sense to rename and rearrange products all the time.

> Stellar’s cooking system is not only fully automated, it will make pizzas on a truck while said truck is en route to delivery sites—talk about fresh.

Smart but I wonder how profitable and environmentally sound this is? Particularly because so many pizza startups have imploded.

Either these CEOs are insanely incompetent leaders who have gone on obviously unnecessary hiring sprees as late as a few months ago, or something else is up. Either way, it takes a particularly dishonest leaders to suggest that the main problem is low employee productivity.

All of tech is like that.

I haven't had problems with viruses, spyware and ransomware on Windows for years. Microsoft's builtin spyware marketed as telemetry and diagnostics otoh is very difficult to counter even with dedicated tools like O&O ShutUp10. I get why companies don't want to risk giving business secrets to Microsoft.

I would actively avoid such a service. The recovery process sounds outlandishly punishing without addressing a real issue. Any email service competing with, say, Fastmail would first have to offer feature parity and even then a marginally better password recovery would be a secondary feature.

My country offers several national digital identification services and if you can use one of those for password recovery, well that's a feature I would find interesting with my existing mail provider.

Needs 3x more location keyword stuffing...

Could you maybe expand on your market analysis? Who is the target group here that wants these easy turnkey solutions - often bypassing the IT department all together - and at the same time would want to set up their own VPS/cloud implementation with a state of the art tech state? Just curious.

It's hard to see how we aren't heading towards a full content bubble where art, news and entertainment are custom made according to our individual profiles.

That's already happening with no code tools, hosted solutions, saas, GitHub copilot and more.

I seriously doubt it will work when the required corporate eco system or thinking just isn't there. I mean, we are talking about people who went to Google in order to find inspiration for how to run startups.

Why do you think it has taken Google so many years to implement these obvious safety and privacy measures?

This is a great plan if it brings the demise of Instagram.

Same here. There is something about the mundaness that piques your interest.

jfc let the kids have Tumblr in peace instead of turning it into another boomer cesspool.

Slack's policy of holding key communications as hostage becomes ridiculous if you have joined a couple of servers only to find most of the data inaccessible. Non-corporate orgs really need to move to Discord.

Well I guess they will rebrand themselves any moment now. Can't be an unicorn candidate with a sensible name like that.

I really wish there was a modern open source automation toolkit för Windows that combined the programming flexibility of AutoHotKey with the visual capabilities of UI Path and powerful crawling functionality.

No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.

The book makes you question the sanity of a world that even gets the design of doors wrong.

Incredible and inspiring. i can't even begin to imagine what this tech will lead to.

Are you running analytics on this?

A reasonable range would absolutely be great but I understand why disclosing any salary information would be challenging for the company as it changes how compensation negotiation is done but will also affect the overall culture. Ultimately, you need to continue your first principles thinking and put this hypothesis to the test.

Porkbun is really good. Cloudflare also sells domains at registry prices, very convenient if you already use their services.
