Real search engines respect robots.txt so you could just tell them not to enter Markov Chain Hell.

I suspect AI crawler would also (quickly learn to) respect it also?

Looks a lot like LiteXL. Is it based off it? What makes it different?

In many European countries unions provide free legal support.

Join the union even if things are good for you now, and you don’t have to go hunting for legal help if one day you feel like your employer isn’t being fair.

You don't even need to join to get access to the support.

That and also tables (with invisible borders), which was the content positioning before CSS tool of choice and went way into the 2010s.

Got a link? Frustratingly the App Store search didn’t surface anything, but neither did Kagi.

MSFT invested over $10B. And currently has no seat on the board.

As far as I understand, they knew and agreed to that before committing their $$$.

But for you to buy a million dollars worth of Apple, someone sold a million dollars worth of Apple, right?
throwaway744678 · 3 years ago
Or 1 million people sold $1 worth of Apple. If you want to execute a large trade, you'd probably have to buy from several sellers, and (my limited understanding of the market is that) you'd do so by matching sell orders in ascending order, thus pushing the market value up.
throwaway744678 commented on Android’s emergency call shortcut is flooding dispatchers with false calls   arstechnica.com/gadgets/2... · Posted by u/PaulHoule
taeric · 3 years ago
I'm somewhat curious what the data is on how many people use the "emergency call from locked screen" feature. Devices that detect crashes and such are a god send for safety. Being able to use the phone from locked state feels not nearly as useful.

Granted, this all became way worse with touch. I wouldn't be surprised if larger phones make it worse, too. I have loved my flip's ability to "close" and render this a non-issue. Wallet style cases also helped, back when I had a non foldable phone.

throwaway744678 · 3 years ago
Looking through the settings, I reckon one can set a message to be sent automatically to your "emergency contacts", along with your location when you use the mentioned feature. A possible use case: coming home late at night, you get followed by a sinister looking guy; you can discreetly ask for help without pulling your phone.
