What turns me off about NextJS is its "opt-out" telemetry.
You have to do a bit of magic at the system level "npx next telemetry disable" to turn it off (which you can only figure out by an internet search).
This seems very disingenuous on part of Vercel.
Make it an "opt-in" or don't fricking track. Conduct a yearly survey or use some other means if you are so interested in improving the framework.
I am open to other framework suggestions.
How long will this game of musical chairs go on? Technologically we are not there yet. What is called as AI by all these self-aggrandizing people is nothing more than glorified "pattern matching".
Can the current technology have its use cases? Sure. But calling it self-driving is laughable at best and deceptive at worst.
Why the negative perception?
If you don't like it, turn it off.
I switched to brave 4 months ago after trying all the available ones (Chrome - memory and power hog, Everything else – no good app store).
First use it, before you review it! Duh!
When will investors learn to separate hype from what's possible - Augmented reality, blockchain, self-driving cars, AI?
The reality on the ground is a lot different than all these startup peddlers have you believe.
This makes it a lot difficult for people who are actually building useful things raise money.
iPhone or any "mobile" phones are not actually phone's. They used to be, at a point in the distant past. With internet connection and a processor more powerful than the computing systems of the past era, these devices have to reclassified as mobile computing devices.
Then these predatory tactics would be subject to antitrust, and the perpetrators can be brought to justice.
Or, is the legal system and the elected representatives so inept to act on behalf of people?
Although government control will lead to more problems down the line, at least, this has opened serious debate about the unfair control Apple and Google has over the App stores.
Third part app stores should be allowed, and in the end, hopefully, the best one will come out as a winner.
When China does not allow foreign companies to operate in their land (Facebook, Amazon, and a host of other companies) then why should we allow their companies to exist here?
What you say is true. Perhaps, a distinction ought to be made between mere mortals like us, and the obsessed ones. In our era where information is more easily available than food, and where experienced people willing to help, are just as reachable, I think for someone who dedicates the time towards mastery, 2 years will take him/her very far.
Not if someone is striving every day to become better, observe, learn, test, and adapt. For someone who procrastinates a lot and does not proactively look to improve, it might take 6-8 years!
Take the money back and go where? Live in a hut? It's such enabling behaviors that embolden these elitists to lord over our lives. You can't let anyone be a gatekeeper to technology and progress. This applies to every major tech player. And this is the time that we need to make our voices heard.
It's not Apple vs. Fortnite. It's actually Apple vs. Users. Apple has been taking us for a ride this whole time. We pay damn much and buy the phone. It is the user's property from then on. What the user install's and uninstall's from his phone should be his decision. Taking a cut of say, 3%, to keep the app store running is forgivable. But 30% digging into users pocket is unpardonable.
Apple is no longer the underdog that it was 40 years ago, and some fanboys pretending it to be is despicable. It's a monopoly and the only thing it cares is it's profitability.
Despite all the sugarcoated lies Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Google have been saying to the senate, they are a monopoly. Stop letting them deceive us.
Let's take the power back. Stop enabling such deception. Death of a country is determined by it's governance. Death of a society is determined by it's culture and greedy monopolies.
The way we can claim our power is by raising awareness to the point that the powers that are will take note and take action.
When you have a colour chart for reference and known distances between the camera and the chart, it's not difficult to colour correct. They might have a better interpretation of the underwater imaging phenomenon, which anyone can reverse engineer and use (from the published work). Patent's are just for reputation.
This might lead to duopoly in the market for hardware machine learning chips with Intel and Nvidia competing-with/acquiring new players. This could ultimately stifle innovation like it happened with EDA companies - Synopsys and Cadence.
