    I struggle to see the tech/data being used in that way. At a much higher level, the data is more likely anonymized (where possible) and/or not directly exposed to anybody. Think of…

    IMHO, this is not the point. The core problem is that they're building systems that will remove competition altogether. You may still get your current systems to market ahead of yo…

    Worse off, if anything.

    Yes, it would be great if there were literally any other comparison other than repeated but slightly different views of Feb vs Mar in 2026 only.

    Same issue with Switch 2. You can only wake it with a Switch 2 controller. Nintendo's own Pro Controller for switch, which used to wake the Switch just fine, cannot wake the Switch…

    I do not believe that _you_ are trolling with this question, but answering this is just asking to be trolled. That said. Fortnite. Yes, I still play it with friends and cannot play…

    This is both somewhat funny, but also sad. Such a mood. :D

    A pretty cool one, at that!

    Even your description sounds like a startup, to me. There was a hook to get the funding (easy to get weapons funding in wartime). Recruiting the top talent. Urgency (beat everybody…

    I love that this comment came up directly after (at the time I'm writing this comment) "Math doesn't care about your feelings."

    I've tried to explain this a couple of times, but I keep falling back on the calculations used to show the problem (that it's not the numbers themselves, but the pattern). This com…

    It's more that if you start with those clean, single decimal percentages and a total number of votes, you'd end up with decimals for number of votes, which isn't possible. So if yo…

    I think you are correct, but that's missing the point of the article's content. I'm just a programmer, not a math expert, but I believe these statements are accurate. 1. It's very …

    I hear what you're saying and somewhat agree, but as with everything, I really don't think "it's that simple". First, that you're even using Google search or Gmail is providing Goo…

    "Probably shouldn't have used N95 though"... gee, ya think? :P I would like to think that it's clear to everybody that they absolutely should not have claimed that it's even "N95 G…

    How does this erode your confidence in the FTC? Maybe you missed the FTC report where they stated the maximum filtration they were able to reach was 86% and that was the maximum, w…

    Is this simply because the bookmark manager linked (Floccus) is not available for Safari? Or better yet, can you elaborate on how any of the content up the chain from your comment …

    I agree so much with this. I was excited for the feature until the first 10 seconds. I don't want a fake DJ "talking to me" or attempting to emulate a radio DJ. It's not like all I…

    Complete plays is a fair metric, if it doesn't take into consideration related traits like when I love a particular remix of a song that is very different than the original, the sy…

    Not when it's recommending something it _should_ already know I like (and probably why it added it to the list). Also, sometimes, I may like something, but not add it to my persona…

    You're comparing video streaming services (one of them a live streaming service) that have far more cost per user, to something that has far more minimal costs. You're also compari…

    I really think this is a "to each, his own" concept. May work great for some people. May be terrible for others. The internet is a wonderful place for the open exchange of ideas, i…

    I seriously think that the specific range of hours was not at all the point of the example. Would you disagree? If you're going to nit-pick, my kid starts school at 9am, so I can't…
