riffraff

I'm in agreement with the general point but was big tech well liked in the early 2020s?

Facebook scandals had exploded already, Google had already long abandoned "don't be evil", nobody ever liked Microsoft, and I think sentiment towards Apple is somewhat unchanged.

I thought the title was a wink to people who knew of that episode, without the need to actually discuss it.

Others have said this, but "The Orville", once it goes past the first few "family guy"-esque episodes, is a fantastic Star Trek.

I enjoyed Strange New Worlds, but it has too many "weird" episodes.

If that was the case, we wouldn't be using openssh, openssl, perl/python/ruby etc...

I'm a GPL person but that's not why Linux won over the BSDs.

Well, only if that's the bottleneck.

Consider commuting with a friend in the morning: if you get dressed and get out of the door in 5m instead of 10m, but then have to wait for me to come pick you up, and then we both sit in a car for 5m to get to the train, and then we sit on that for 50.. then your speed up doesn't really matter.

I don't know if this is the case for drug development but as GP said, we already have more designs than we can test.

Same here. A part of me wants to get a new MBP but I really can't justify it.

Isn't trading always blocked? Whenever you would allow someone to build a complete Color it's better not to allow it, and whenever you also would it's only advantageous if your color is stronger than the other thus the other party should never agree.

Any other exchange becomes pointless as you won't be completing a color anyways.

Private and anonymous are different but the digital euro proposal is for both things, it is supposed to be equivalent to cash but only for small sums.

I have no idea how that's supposed to work.

To be fair, a monster is scary so it fits. Malice in the middle perhaps would have been less confusing.

If catching "all" security issues becomes feasible then the balance tilts in favor of the projects vs the attackers.

Big malicious entities always had more investments in this than random open source projects.

you don't even have to get rid of it, even consuming less beef has significant impacts.

> There is not a single KPI where the curve shows even the slightest sign of recovery

ozone, marine fish capture, tropical forest loss, and domesticated land are shown as below peak, aren't they?
