Wasn't this the path of YouTube also?
And Spotify?

I’m starting to wonder if this is the reason we had some serious problems with macOS and iOS in recent months and years. Serious bugs and serious security flaws.
The A-team was working on getting everything ready for M1. The B-team was working on the usual releases.
If the M1 is as good as everyone says, then that means they had the best people on it.
I doubt the team designing the chips has much overlap with the OS team.

No I totally get it. Is the implication that the monolith marks a human grave?
I don't think it's a grave just a memorial. Someone probably fell off the cliff or something.

While true I don't think this driving problem is used as an example for something you should use ML for rather an example to show how you could apply it.

It depends on the pressure. Astronauts in the Apollo program actually breathed 100% pure oxygen without any side effects
Except for that side effect of a big hot deadly fire.

Is this dangerous if the link is able to inject Bash commands as the value of JS_ARG? If so, that's RCE and that's bad.
Is it possible to do this using the HTML5 clipboard functions instead?
Maybe, but I'm pretty sure browsers block the clipboard functions unless they were triggered via user input. I don't know if a page load counts as a valid trigger.

Gizmodo's baking metaphor is really really awful.

How does one tactfully determine what percentage of a company is Indian?
Names possibly? I'm purely speculating here, but since India has such a huge population anyone with a indianesque name is probably Indian. Especially if it's the case that muslims from pakistan have distinct names. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

there's no way they 'll make the premiums they have with software. There isn't even content with such margins.
Guess they should just do nothing then? Diversity in buisness is important. And Google has a whole pie from which apple can steal a big chunk of. Simply set apple search to be the default on safari and you immediately have a huge chuck of the market.
coopsmgoops commented on Universal basic income seems to improve employment and well-being newscientist.com/article/... · Posted by u/rgbrgb
The thing I don't really see accounted for in these experiments is that UBI is not really "universal". It's a group, or a town who or are not isolated from the outside economy, and the participants are usually aware/suspect that this bonus income probably won't last forever, so they know they need to keep working to maintain their careers etc.
I'm not sure there's any way to account for it unfortunately, it is such a compelling idea though I think we kind of all want it to be real.
