I don't think any of the third part devs are asking for it to be free. The Apollo devs initial response to the announcement was "I'm honestly looking forward to the pricing and the…

The snow is too deep on either side, with too many trees to quickly and effectively turn around without getting stuck. It might work, but he could very easily have gotten stuck try…

Are we talking about influencers, or “the world’s brightest minds”?

I'm saying ads aren't "addictive", because they're pretty despised. They might be effective, when people see them, but I don't think anyone is "addicted" to ads.

> the most brilliant minds in the world are researching best ways to make internet advertisements as addictive as they can be. They're doing a great job, ads are so addictive I've …

Not the person you're replying to, but you can calculate the "implied volatility" using the current option pricing vs the current stock price. As the consensus of price movement (u…

No, I don’t think I will stop it, until people start to realize the democrats are doing the same thing. Also, what an authoritarian response for someone claiming not to be authorit…

Or there are programmers who write both. Something that I want to write once, have run on several different platforms, handle multi-threading nicely, and never have to think about …

I think Meta does reviews every 6 months, which makes it basically perpetual.

You will never be _sure_ that it's limited to that age range, because what's appropriate for a given age is pretty subjective. I don't know why people are obsessed with making perf…

Not everything is a conspiracy. If you buy a used laptop and the previous owner didn't remove it from their icloud first, you can still try to get them to unlock it for you. As a b…

What parts? The screen / front camera assembly also stays locked if the phone it was on was stolen. The FaceID / TouchID data is stored on the camera module.

I work at one of these big companies, and at least how we do it is to see what kind of candidates we get, then compare seniority vs potential vs abilities, and decide which person …

Written from the comfort of your warm home with your secure, easily replaceable tech job. It's very easy to be philosophical when it's not your entire life and family history at st…

You realize there are entire towns and villages whose lives depend on this tourism, right? I'm not saying it's a perfect solution to fly snow in, but you can't discount the impact …

You don’t prevent it, simple. Adding invasive privacy measures that apply to all adults won’t stop the kid who wants to find porn and show it to other kids on his phone. We found w…

We can't expect a grown-up to set up content filters on a child's devices because it's too complicated, but we _can_ expect them to setup a VPN on their own device, and also determ…
