TBF he said it would be an open protocol, not open-source. That being said, obviously Apple still never followed through...

Duo and WhatsApp have significantly better video quality (especially off of Wi-Fi) than FaceTime

Eh not really true as they've explicitly stated every single swap / transaction for crypto should be reported vs having any sort of threshold

This is a really really powerful concept – are you hiring?

It's really odd that this is making the media rounds now, granted this is the most fair headline I've seen on it to date.

The fact that Focals v2 were being cancelled, and that all customers would receive refunds for their existing purchase was announced with the acquisition months ago...

I love this, but it struck me in the opening paragraph how similar it is to the challenges around training AI on higher-level abstraction goals, with tons of examples of AI's basically "cheating" and passing information discretely to itself to yield answers, rather than actually solving the problem as the human had hoped!

Also - that's not the reason. The reason is because Android is open source and Google allows sideloading.

I don't think Google allows Amazon to distribute their app store through the Play Store, so you have to sideload it.

Doesn't solve the distribution problem anyway – the app stores are the shelf

Sounds very interesting, been in the space for a bit now and eager to learn more. [email protected]

Is real estate still a "great investment" in China when you can't own property but merely buy 75 year leases? (this is my understanding of how real estate works at least in Shanghai)

If you don't own your keys, you don't own your crypto.

That's literally the point. Because of reactions like yours (specifically that last line re-paraphrasing), anyone on the conservative spectrum is now afraid to express their opinions or reveal such information

It's a little bit different if your job is to design and build a product intended to be arbiters of free speech, and the govt is pressuring your industry and company specifically to maybe take a heavier hand in moderating... In that case your job probably largely involves thinking through and talking through these issues with open-minded peers, wherein lies the rub

Collateral is staked ahead of time

You are right, however that is a systemic bias in equal opportunity – not representation.

Foot in the door is a huge step, and it's totally okay for companies to push initiatives that allow more minorities to get their foot in the door / exposure to the company and industry. It's not okay for them to push that agenda in assessment to reach better distribution numbers in representation.
