“ put them on UBI” Never, ever will they do that. It’s the same bullshit like Musk telling people not to save for retirement. He can distribute his stock by now but instead he is g…

The US has the same attributes that most European countries have. Just to a different degree. Socialized healthcare (for some), welfare, free markets (with restrictions), the state…

Losing Ive was probably a good thing for Apple. I often feel that after a few years these big guys have done what they could do and somebody else can take it from there. So far eve…

I used one last time I was in Silicon Valley and I was super impressed with its driving. Very confident and felt super safe. I can’t wait for broader adoption of self driving cars.…

It's a little weird but the teams and the sports leagues are basically just corporations that engage in show business. They have no real connection to where they are located.

The crazy thing is that the best case is that the city will hopefully break even i all the promised benefits materialize. In most cases they don't. I bet if they hired a good VC to…

The whole tax incentive business is a big race to the bottom. Sports teams also abandon their taxpayer funded stadiums once somebody else offers a better deal.

It was probably the same (imaginary) people who damaged the lining of the Reflecting Pool. I think we should think about making blatant lies by politicians a crime.

Can you give examples of these government policies?

The tort system is too expensive and favors parties with deep pockets. Regulations and laws are more efficient. Imagine there were no laws about theft so everybody who gets somethi…

“ cooked by high-end chefs” They aren’t high end chefs. They are normal workers that aren’t squeezed by their company to produce food in the cheapest way

What you are describing sounds great in theory, but the real world doesn’t work like that. In more and more areas the obstacle to enter a market is not regulations but money.

Not an expert on this but wouldn’t this be possible with something similar to an FPGA?

Then they should not even try to have some clunky organization features in Darktable

In my view Darktable should delegate organization to Digikam and focus on image processing. Digikam is really good and it would be perfect if was integrated with Darktable.

Same for me. Managing images in Darktable alone is terrible but with Digikam it’s quite doable.

Better in some areas but also very frustrating in others.

I am always amazed at how much Aurelian Pierre is able to produce. But I think he is too smart for his own good and also too opinionated to be a good leader of an open source commu…

I have tried to get used to Darktable for more than 2 years but finally gave up and went back to Lightroom. For some reason it never clicked with me and made me almost lose interes…

You can’t profit off capital if nobody does the labor. We need both roles and both deserve respect. What would Musk do if nobody worked for him? He is probably not going to be able…

I have worked remotely for years after being in the office for years and I get a similar feeling when I go back twice a year. Nothing really has changed but to me it's sort of new …

It always amazes me that people don’t even check the output of the AI. I am at the moment going through a codebase where the dev told me that he had AI write the tests and that the…

My ex worked at Congress for a few years so I got a little bit of view on the inside. There are a lot of lobbyists who do honest work and try to present correct data. Same for poli…

That's the real evil. Once a super PAC has enough money, they don't even have to spend it. The threat alone is enough to get most Congress people back in line.

That sets the bar pretty high for intelligence and by that standard there probably aren't too many humans who have intelligence.
