I am so confused. How is virtual facebook garbage related to ethereum? I've only used other cryptocurrencies, but I can't imagine a wallet being anything other than a list of transactions.
No, it's a good thing. I just care less when people overcompensate towards specific demographics, and especially when the places they complain about it most just happen to be places where everyone assumes the person they are talking to is of a "privileged demographic".
You're exactly right. Here's whats also happening: people who aren't used to getting treated like white male native English speaking software developers are getting treated like them. I guess they don't like it.
On the bright side, us white male English speaking software developers get to benefit from social justice by proxy because we might be women or minorities.
They may as well not be. Human assisted self driving cars could be put on the road today and there would already be less accidents than with the existing level of intelligence and training required to drive in the US.
I think the message here is what it means for the unsavvy consumer, just like how "security of android as an OS" is completely trivial when compared to minimal app review process and a severely dysfunctional 3rd-party ecosystem (which again, is designed to decrease restrictions and barrier to entry to attract as many use cases as possible, including walmart $50 tablets).
The average consumer (that actually cares) will have a shitty experience with android because its unclear what you have to do to get a good experience, and end up defaulting to iOS because its a consistently above average experience.
not to mention the fact that submitting to the appstore requires 10x more effort because there are actual standards, code review, and testing to enforce.
>It never seems to occur to them that when people buy an Android or Windows device instead of an Apple one, it might be because they don't like the way Apple do stuff and therefore copying Apple is not a good idea.
The real reason is because the average dipshit just wants to get on facebook and youtube with as few currency rectangles as possible, and windows has a much lower barrier to entry. On top of this, windows is firmly cemented in business and enterprise markets, thus it's the most "obvious" choice.
There are valid reasons why one would choose windows, mac, or linux, but you're absolutely fooling yourself if you think that factors into the 90%-consumer's decision.
I actually really love typescript. It takes a language that is frustrating for a variety of reasons and accentuates all of its best qualities. I feel like the simplicity of JS is the reason it's ended up in this transpiler hell. It's like a boilerplate language.
JS with types feels very much like Go (very interface driven, language has very simple design patterns for you to follow), and is still pretty damn fast. Like if I wanted more features, swift, C#, rust, but for 90% of stuff these are really good languages.
I love how people like to personify leadership roles like the president of a country or the CEO of a company so that there is a clear, well defined figure to shit on.

I'm not convinced this year was a bad thing for Apple. They've spent so much time focusing on hardware and gimmicks to attract more eyes over the past 5 years that they needed on really bad year to straighten them out. I suspect now that they've shipped such a major upgrade to the iPhone and the MacBook (despite the MacBook's "upgrade" being shit), they can spend the next 2-3 years focusing hardcore on getting back to basics: software and ecosystem quality.
My favorites are how you still can't sort prime-only items by price correctly (it includes the lowest priced non-prime seller), and how Amazon literally still builds their rich pages using their normal grid layout, and in the most impossible to navigate way possible.
This is actually a really good point, and is consistent with the argument that homosexuality is evolutionarily beneficial because it adds parties to the mix with a high contribution:consumption ratio. I suspect that a tribal equivalent of the Leonardo da Vinci archetype is closely related to lesser/no interest in sexual relationships, especially heterosexual.

would be better with blockchain.
any emanation of the all is as real as the all itself.
They announced the exact same thing a year ago, they had a Tide detergent container with a flow-meter on the spout.

Siri Shortcuts is more like AppleScript.
why would google give business to goober when they have stake in lyft?
wow, I didn't realize money was so hard to send from saudi arabia to japan https://softbank-ia.com/vision...
Breaking slashdot news: Apple has been one quarter away from declining sales for the past 15 years :^)

> Who's really going to invest the hundreds of millions of dollars that it's going to take to make Linux a competitive gaming platform?
A company which wants to stand their ground against the platform which monopolizes their existence. Valve's just brandishing at this point, though.

Automotive deaths are only justified when undertrained and underqualified human drivers have somewhere to be on a friday night.

it's also hindering my search for BLEEDING EDGE GRAPHIX (!!)
this would only work on people who are dumb enough to not realize the difference between rhetorical speech and ridiculing disability.

No zero-day reward?

While I love swift, this is absolutely hilarious when you consider how germane and simple languages like python are compared to it.
