You’re absolutely correct but I think your comment also highlights something important: we don’t have a good word to represent what it is

Unfortunately “hack” became a catch all word long ago. Just look at “life hacks”.

They failed to redact data. That's it. People just read the files afterwards, only formatting was wierd.

You have to log into w11 anyways as a must, no avoiding it. Sure you wouldnt call this free from purist perspective but from consumer perspective it is

Any bets on Windows extending the deadline or providing free security updates for a while as soon as the first sec vulnerability news hits a significant number of customers?

I just hope they sell off Alfa Romeo who knows what to do with the brand. Who the hell wants Alfa Romeo at BMW prices? The whole history has been selling affordable sport cars. They cancelled Giulietta and don't even plan on having a car in that segment. Tonale and Junior look horrible. The brand DNA all but died

> Approximately no-one was watching 4k feature-length videos on their phones in 2005, or playing ray traced 3d games on their laptops.

Do people really do this now? Watching a movie on my phone is so suboptimal I'd only consider it if I really have no other option. Holding it up for 2 hours, being stuck with that tiny screen, brrr.

I can imagine doing it on a plane ride when I'm not really interested in the movie and am just doing it to waste some time. But when it's a movie I'm really looking forward to, I'd want to really experience it. A VR headset does help here but a mobile device doesn't.

you position it vertically against something in bed and keep it close enough (half a meter) so that its practically same size as tv which is 4-5 meters away and you enjoy the pixels. i love doing this few times a week when im going to sleep or just chilling

For number 2, how did you come up with the very narrow 15 year window of birth from 1980 to 1995? I was born in 1963 and for the entirety of my upbringing it was a forgone conclusion that the lack of post high school education had a dire and inescapable consequence in future earning and socioeconomic status.

Because at that time an engineering degree still had some weight because not everyone can get it. This inflation 9f degrees caused the degrees to have way less value only for the next generation

Detail question on one of the recommendations in the article: wouldn't "are you busy?" be more effective than "do you have a second?"

Working from the hypothesis that people generally don't have seconds they are willing to give away to anyone who calls, but they are busy to varying degrees.

From what I read he doesn't ask whether someone is busy but only acknowledges they know they are busy and moves on with the pitch
