Does anyone know what kind of apps Rapidata questions are integrated in? I suppose they are using ad-like integrations to ask users for feedback. Their website only states:

By integrating in a large range of mobile apps (3000+) we have access to a large crowd of over 10 million users responding to our micro tasks/surveys - which we call Rapids. They are spread all over the world, so we can get human input from over 160 countries. Due to the immense size, we can parallelize tasks and get near instant results.

These quotes are displayed without context and hence have no or a very little value in a conversation.

For context: The commentary those quotes are taken from was written by Eugene Kontorovich, a senior researcher at the Heritage Foundation which runs Project 2025.

Lots of Firefox hate here, but little discussion about the articles kicker, which is the exclusion of uBlock Origin from Chrome.

I hope this will mean that in the long run Firefox (and other secondary browsers) will gain more users again. For me, Firefox is a solid piece of software. Works well in strict privacy mode, with uBlock Origin and Multi-Account Containers.

Give us an example where Chrome is faster than Firefox, so we can see if it is more important than having uBlock Origin.

I use both Firefox and Chrome for work and haven't noticed any speed differences (without measuring).

It is always great to hear of another union being formed. Workers representing themselves is not only a benefit for the workers, but also a pathway to healthy and sustainable organisations.

> Man didn’t evolve in an environment where stories were told by people who’d won a massive intertribe tournament of story telling ability. Stories were told by family.

The stories we grew up to were indeed those which won "a massive intertribe tournament of story telling ability". Only interesting stories got retold. Stories travelled further when made into songs. They became artworks when tranformed into plays. They became myths and legends in the luggage of those travelling the planet. And the art of telling stories also became a way of making a living much before our contemporary society produced the first pop star.

It might make sense to split the car analogy into different users:

1. For the majority of regular users the best way to understand the car is to read the manual and use the car.

2. For F1 drivers the best way to understand the car is to consult with engineers and use the car.

3. For a mechanic / engineer the best way to understand the car is to build and use the car.

Its design exhibits a very dense funtional pragmatism that makes it look like a laboratory or even bomb shelter to me.
