cpmouter··on The end of India’s ‘IT miracle’?
>different cultural definitions of "yes"

There's no 100% accuracy in weather forecasts so a mistake is understandable. Asking you if you finished your task and getting a "yes" when you haven't finished it is outright lying.

cpmouter··on The end of India’s ‘IT miracle’?
I've tried Zoho and it's the most unreliable, "ghetto" thing I've ever tried (for lack of better words). UX/UI-wise, it looks like it was slapped together by a bunch of amateur programmers.

>people from different parts of the world see things and respond differently than you'd expect and then get frustrated when the outcome is different than expected

I get your point, but the fact that Indians say "yes" to everything (i.e. the fact they lie constantly) is not something that managers should get used to, it's something Indians have to correct.

cpmouter··on GitHub Is Microsoft’s $7.5B Undo Button
>Firefox's share was never very high to beginning with, because Mozilla doesn't have the resources to play the vendor bundled game that Microsoft and Google have been playing.

>And now it's rising again, because they've made great improvements in Quantum and are on a roll.

You say MS/Google are winning because they have money to bundle their browser, and at the same time Firefox is rising because they made improvements to their software. That's a contradiction.

Personally, I left Firefox for Chrome because how unbearably slow Firefox is/was, something Mozilla seemed to ignore for a long time.

cpmouter··on How IPv6 deployment is growing in U.S. and other countries
Is that enforced? I submitted an app in 2017 that does not work at all over IPv6 and it was accepted.

Let's hope this is a joke and move on.
cpmouter··on Spend analysis of 6 years, 686 rides, and $12k spent on Uber (2017)
Not only is free public transport unheard of, it's also pretty expensive. A ride in Barcelona is like 2€+ now!
