Making me think that maybe you should be insensitive to certain users

Strong disagree to both of these points. Nothing "insensitive", save your comment. Devices have audio controls, no need to repeat them in a video player-especially not one on a lan…

Yes, we should feel deep shame. We have benefitted from this for years, with lives of convenience, at the expense and exploit of millions of our brethren worldwide. It would only b…

Yes, I'm sure the fact that they are denying any public oversight wouldn't suggest any nefarious activities. Obviously it is not directly equatable, but to dismiss their history an…

While other countries engage to some degree, I'm attempting to be hyperbolic to emphasize the sheer difference between US and them, which often (as it is now) gets downplayed and f…

Not every country has yielded control of their top-level of government to their intelligence wing(Bushes, Clinton, Obama and their teams all have ties), nor do other countries have…

and yet, the machine churns on. Just wanted to put a reminder here that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) has not been able to audit the CIA for over 40 years [0]. Evil li…

I'm curious if Notion has any plans to make the "type" property user-extensible. Given the current data-structure, which decouples the block data from the way its rendered through …

I'm curious what you're using to build this. I've been playing around with a similar idea, and have been prototyping in Godot. Visually representing the connections/structures betw…

I've thought about this for awhile, and I can only come up with two ideas: a) laziness or b) lack of imagination. It's a bit of a harsh criticism, but we are spatial creatures who …

(Note: I am in the early stages of developing out ideas for a similar tool, so feel free to answer with discretion.) Part of my problem with the current software toolset is that al…

I feel right there with you, a few years behind, but also feeling adrift post-graduation. It feels as if there's been a "junk foodification" of digital bytes (pun intended), with o…

I commented elsewhere, but look up "Insectothopter". Nefarious orgs like the CIA seem to love symbolism, so I'd imagine there's some connection between embedding themselves in publ…

lol, 2 day old account with generic [Word]+[Word] username pumping up the CIA....hmmmm, something's Fishy FishKey.

From your article: “This is helping maintain US dominance, particularly from a technological perspective,” says Meyerriecks. “That’s really critical for national and economic secur…

a little too on the nose for me, especially given the cia's history trying to develop a dragonfly UAV [1] as a listening device. now they're seeking to be approved "flies on the wa…

"Update" which includes the most basic of iterations. I mean 95% of the current offerings could be completed in a few 2-week dev cycles. Its been almost 500 weeks of existence....@…

Threading, better search, tagging, sharing message bits with others, temporary group messages, better in-message features (polls, lists), better ways to send multiple pieces of med…

Threading, better search, tagging, sharing message bits with others, temporary group messages, better in-message features, better ways to send multiple pieces of media in a singula…

Anyone else tired of this underlying form for IDEs? I get why the side toolbars make sense, from a space efficiency perspective, but the amount of information to take in is always …

"Powerful Updates to Messages", lol. Apple hasn't put an ounce of power into messaging. It's been 10 years, and they haven't innovated at all in the message space in any meaningful…

people like you, who insist on patronizing at every opportunity given, are what make online conversations, particularly on this site, awful.

what do you mean "has been done"? is software a one-shot game?
