You know the HN line “your business model is not my problem” that’s trotted out when it’s the advertising industry or the media industry? Well, “your business model is not my problem”.
If they could tell me where I listened to what I’d love that. I wish there were Services for Feature-lovers. I’d love for my player to be able to handle mood (road trips vs work) and hold all these things without me thinking about it. I don’t want checkbox hell.
Haha, I’m not playing that game because I’m lawsuit averse but I’m not surprised people are successful at it. This JDK includes telemetry so it just got a lot more dangerous to play but otherwise I’d guess license violations are pervasive at small shops.
Users don’t behave that way. I don’t care about the incognito dudes. Cookie warnings are so passé that all users have trained themselves to always accept. That’s what my user research shows.
Fears of bounces over cookie warnings are overstated. Users do not care.
Yeah, dude, if I know users are going to not penalize me for this and the government is going to fine me 250k a day for it, I’m going to put it up. That isn’t lazy. That’s just time optimization.
No one’s going to fine me for blanket adding the feature so that’s fine.
His isn’t ethical implications discussion. This is you using every one of these feature release pages as your product review page. If nothing has changed about your position why even tell us? It’s like all those people who comment on software built with Go. “I don’t understand why Terraform uses Golang. It has no generics”
That’s not “programming language feature discussion”. It’s obsessively off-topic behaviour.
Dude, Spotify is a song streaming service. Holding on to song history is one of the features they offer. Lyft and Uber are taxi services. Holding on to history is a feature. Go start your own privacy car if you want. I’m not in favour of this world where you privacy first people want all these features removed from applications I use.
AMD has to license their stuff to Hygon too. I think it’s great. IP laws are stifling innovation and the fact that there is an escape hatch in China is a good thing.
Top line optimization instead of everything else. I pay for a gym trainer, have someone dry clean my clothes, have a rideshare pass and a Muni/BART pass. The spending gets rapidly wiped out just in my growth each year post-tax.
My greatest worry now is that I can’t spend myself into more time any more and need to make personal improvements instead (like not reading so much social media like HN)
Sounds snarky, but perhaps this is true in that Economics cannot be science in the Popper sense since our experiments are usually too noisy to lead to reasonably falsify any hypothesis.
Still, I don’t think we’ve come upon a better method of knowledge acquisition in this realm.
