It seems to me like they need to massively improve Homekit adoption first into far more different types of devices. That's when Siri becomes useful to me personally. I want to at l…

Can you say that Jaguar outsources its tech? Jaguar is owned by Tata, as in TCS. I'd wager it's likely that TCS staff who worked at Jaguar were ordered to do their best work.

So yes the geniuses early retiring problem is a thing, but there could be a way of managing this IF the government wasn't useless - secure phantom options. The idea would be that y…

The dollar, energy and bandwidth savings possible globally from getting this right means it should be a UN/ISO level commitment to get it right, standardised and committed to.

I have a friend who works in the civil service. He's a devout socialist. His bosses boss, who runs a huge department gathered all his staff into a room and said "You can't be fired…

Someone smart should backtest economist predictions and have a website to rank their accuracy.

With AI and robotics killing off huge amounts of entry level jobs in the next 5 years, the number of young men who are angry is going to absolutely explode. Western countries are g…

He's too nice to call out the real problem, which is hubris. Intel got arrogant, remained arrogant and despite getting absolutely pummelled by competitors on share price value, bel…

How much money does this organisation waste on constant rebrands.

The first non-shite thing I’ve seen from the Graun in years.

The tweet reads as customers of company a who leeches off company b are upset with company b. Or is this not what has happened?

So if you don’t get any benefits then your account won’t be monitored right? Right? We’ve already learned in a few months that this lot are as corrupt and authoritarian as any prev…

Atheist here so true morality.

Enshittification is a perfectly cromulent word.

So I worked at LMAX during 2009-2011 when Martin Thompson, Dave Farley, Mike Barker, Chris Smith and Danny Yates worked on the Disruptor. It was in use in 2010 inside LMAX. The her…

I've just installed and configured KDE Neon Plasma 6 and I'm really liking it a lot. Feels closer to Windows than my other Ubuntu and Xubuntu installs. Just my 2p

Dutch directness, and as a consequence rudeness, is legendary. They'd be world champions at it. Add in a fair amount of arrogance and you've got a reasonable chance of being on the…

I currently pay for Pocket but will be moving away from it because I can't stand that the Mozilla CEO is running the place like her own private fiefdom/piggy bank. A 23% pay rise i…

The New York Times were never going to write an unbiased article about him. I have no genuine idea how he's doing as a leader but I'd look in other places to find out.

There's a hint of red trouser brigade in many of these pubs. Some are beautiful pubs and worth seeing for that but plenty on this list are meh. The Jolly Gardeners for example is n…

A good looking straight friend of mine owned a Ferrari 355 back in the day. It took about 6 weeks before I went out in it with him around Central London. My overriding memories inc…

I'm not American but at least two of those seem politically affiliated board members and both to the Democrat Party. Feels like they're aligning with the establishment by doing thi…

I’d never have been able to buy my Amiga A500 which really got me into coding with a paper round in my early teens. It also spurred me on to study harder in school because I realis…

One of the benefits of agile done correctly, I.e. XP is that through pair rotation, companies don’t get in this situation.

Is it possible to damage The Guardian's reputation any further?
