I'm not familiar with that analysis, its accuracy, or its evidence. I would be surprised by this given it seems like providers are still in the growth phase. Typically the burden o…

Nintendo is the publisher and co-owner of the franchise. They have outsourced development (e.g. Bandai Namco) or licensed to other developers (e.g. Niantic) in the past, and seemin…

Is that not sort of exactly the point? People love the concept of pokemon and monster collection, and it hasn't really evolved beyond the same RPG formula in 20 years. Nintendo has…

Perhaps they were so successful at getting their clients minimal punishments that they didn't see a need to meaningfully invest in proper IT security compared to the inevitable sla…

I just tried the experiment myself and I get very similar results to what the article describes. It's mostly sponsored (4 of the top 10 are sponsored). There is only 1 on the entir…

Thank you I missed that part, I thought the "Latest News" section was the end of the article.

That link shows Gabe Newell's estimated net worth, but does he have have 100% ownership of Valve? The Valve Wikipedia page shows his ownership as ">50%" [0], but isn't more specifi…

I can't speak to all of them, but the Pixel line absolutely does, and so do some other vendors. At one point Samsung came with both Samsung Browser (chromium based) and Chrome prei…

If anything the mobile browser situation is much worse. On one major platform, there is Chrome by default (so even bigger market share issues). People can install other browsers, b…

I believe his factories are still currently running, so it doesn't appear he changed his mind on the matter.

Fooled me once, and now it's going to take a lot to make me look at anything from this company again. I hope they can actually build what they promised someday.

I agree, this doesn't feel like much of an apology. In addition to the reasons you mentioned, it also only acknowledges a single event, when the original post describes multiple in…

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_ETag#Tracking_using_ETags > ETags can be used to track unique users, as HTTP cookies are increasingly being deleted by privacy-aware…

Have you considered using something other than ETag for your use case? It seems like ETag been compromised by trackers, and unfortunately this is why we can't have nice things.

It looks like the add-on has an option to "Allow referral marketing" which is off by default. If you install this add-on and feel like enabling this, it looks like you can. That sa…

Looking at the source, it looks like they're just using WordPress.

Perhaps GitHub is taking a cut from the purchase when purchased through their marketplace (20% is reasonably close to other marketplaces). Some services may be building that into t…

This would be great, but would probably significantly hurt performance. Especially if media queries come into play and we'd have to try different resolutions and ensure they're all…

Even that fluctuates frequently. When I worked at a grocery store, when you ordered something it would show you what the item would "cost" the store. This could change from day to …

Ah, fair enough. That is a good question.

From the article: "On some chipsets, the firmware running on the ME implements a system called Intel's Active Management Technology (AMT). This is entirely transparent to the opera…

Totally agree. This has been one of the biggest reasons I've been having trouble transitioning to VS Code. I know it's silly, but the design pattern is near ubiquitous in other edi…
