I'm personally super upset with basically all non-Chinese brands. They used the post-covid inflation to drive prices up and like many people are saying here, now the 12k entry-leve…

Agree, however i feel that NYT plays it smart. I currently pay only 4$/month which is negligible enough for me to keep it on. Since i'm a happy subscriber of Bloomberg, i am really…

I'm toggling between Disney, Apple TV, HBO. This also allows me to build up a backlog of a handful of high-quality shows on each platform while paying only for one per month. The o…

of course bro, i'm sure that no self-driving car is gonna crash as soon as i deliberatly click on the wrong bicycle picture.

Fully agree that the system propose the same challenge to many people and fully agree that my wrong answer is just diluted in a bunch of correct answers. That's exactly why i was a…

Glad you asked. Since i despise the horrible UX of these Captcha where i get exploited to train a neural network, i very often click on the majority of correct result plus one wron…

aaaand again China doing whatever it wants and nobody doing anything about it. When will this stop? Personally i'm boycotting their product and services as much as possible.

Is it? Waymo seems to be doing pretty well, it has the largest fleet of autonomous cars and from what i remember by far the most extensive testing program on real streets. This loo…

Am i the only one struggling to use Zoom properly since they introduced the latest security changes? The slack integration (write /zoom to start a meeting) was working ok-ish even …

I'm getting extremely pessimistic about our chances at stopping this. It looks like even though we drastically reduce our emissions (which looks very much unrealistic) we haven't y…

That's a fair point. I guess a mine like Mountain Pass in California would still be a much cleaner site than a chinese mine, even though the EPA is now a clown agency basically. An…

I agree with you sooooooo much! Those popups are extremely annoying and mostly used on useless SEO blog traps. The whole notification UI should be much less prominent. If you reall…

This engine is meant to bring stuff (and people) to low earth orbit. Don't think of it as a plane, but as a space shuttle which will be fully reusable with no additional boosters. …

Completely agree on this one. I feel that a big chunk of "let's make it an SPA" is coming from the development team wanting to use and learn first hand these new exotic tech stacks…

The idea of having many small fusion reactors is quite interesting. I never thought about it and i would normally dismiss it since building a big one is cheaper than building many …

For me, it has been the ability to build websites. This is the very skill that changed my life for the better. Why? First of all it opened so many more job opportunities. I graduat…

i'm sad to see a decline of nuclear energy everywhere in the world. While renewables are the end goal, nuclear was gonna be the perfect transition source for the next decades, prov…

Why do you need this? Is it because you are paranoid of being tracked? UTMs offer a transparent, honest way of tracking where a user is coming from. This is super important for any…

Or maybe you just stop drinking Sodas at all. Might sounds a bit too radical, but both goods (sodas and straws) should simply NOT be in sale.

Fully agree with you. If you use Ruby on Rails (but any modern full-stack framework would do the trick), building a CRUD is indeed 90% automated already. All you have to do, and th…

I had to switch back to Chrome since Firefox has been almost unusable on mainstream site like Netflix. Can't wait to go back to Firefox as soon as 57 is out!

ahahah man this is the funniest thing i've seen today!

This release is in my opinion a life saver for Rails. Instead of forcing people to hop off the Rails train, it empowers them and let them choose their favourite JS library on top o…
