I'm not a huge fan of Shopify. Their default setup and theme requirements are abysmal.

But it's light-years ahead of WordPress+Woocom.

Neither of these are well set to run a proper ecommerce without heavy customizations though.

Where's your control group showing that people who don't age don't have an increased risk of cancer?

+1 for Ritual.

The interface is a little clunky, but the service as a whole works really well. Order ahead, walk in to pick up.

Does this interfere with lazy loading?

I wonder how services like Stadia will play into this moving forward.

Why not get a copy in Nigeria, have a server hosted there, and just play it streaming.

New startup idea: learn foreign languages by playing pirated copies of foreign language games.

Thanks for this insight. It's a good reminder that reality is nuanced and complex.

Google marketing trying to spread FUD about "ad blocking".

This is a malicious ads blocker, which should be a default feature of it's browser. It's not an ad blocking extension at all.

This telemetry thing is surprisingly overlooked in these discussions. I've disabled tracking and reporting on at least 4 separate occasions since windows auto updated my laptop from Windows 7 to windows 10 without user permission. They just keep adding auto-enabled features that override the previously disabled features doing the same thing.

"We heard you when you said you didn't want cameras automatically monitoring you. So we added this new feature where you can disable cameras based on DAY OF THE WEEK and turned every day on for your convenience"

Microsoft knows it lost the online tracking game, so it's playing dumb and putting in privacy-invading features and overriding user selections yearly. Why rely on a browser when you control the OS?

The paranoid part of me thinks windows is giving away windows 10 for free because it's making money selling the user data and access to intelligence agencies.

I know apple has received some flak for updates slowing their computers, but windows is no better. My 4 year old laptop is basically unusable at this point because every action takes 10-15s.

To be fair, people said this about Tesla and SpaceX as well.

Given his track record, I'm inclined to believe he understands the problem space and how to solve it better than you or I.

Yes, the burden is on him to execute, but that will take him years. The argument that "I don't understand it therefore it's invalid" holds little meaning. Musk isn't a person who gets this deep into a project without a high likelihood of success, historically.

I just did this last month. It's a solid risk management move.

Never had an issue with PayPal debiting funds though, in 10+ years using them.

Ironically, I tracked the real world identity of someone using stolen credit cards in my ecom site BECAUSE he posted a tutorial/how-to on YouTube showing the vulnerability tool (script kiddie), under his real name. SMH.

This won't stop this information from being disseminated, but it may save some idiots from themselves.

It's not just CBD. Hemp seeds are an amazingly nutrient rich food. Sibling comments mentioned it can be used in fabrics and paper. It's an amazingly versatile product that's been unfortunately supressed in the war on drugs.

Not really. They were profitable, they just invested heavily in infrastructure (warehouses) and developing new services (AWS).

They may have been unattractive by wall street's standards (eg. Pay outs) but they were far from unprofitable.
