The chart is interesting, but misses on an important thing: semiconductor production on it's own is complicated, but producing equipment for semiconductor production is the whole new level, that's why ASML.

Free products are not the consequence of megacorps existence. Free products exist, because you are the product. Big companies also doesn't necessarily mean monopolies.

Because we live in a society with some ideas of decency, integrity and so on. He shouldn’t. That’s why he could receive this kind of feedback.

In reality though, do we actually need humanoid robots, and if so, for what?

However, none of that was fed to you by algorithms, but rather your own curiosity for weird stuff and your ability to find it. I am not saying that it is good or bad, but in my book, it is different from infinite algorithmic feeds we currently have.

I think Fowler's work is an underrated must-read for anyone who works in domains related to moving money. Makes any kind of engineering practices and architecture principles logical and make sense.

In oppressive regimes like USSR (as if there are or were any regimes "like USSR") (where censorship was manual) there always were loopholes to avoid censorship and convey messages you wanted to. In the West (as well as in the East) today the platforms don't allow for any loopholes, or even when such loopholes are found, they're being censored out very quickly.

Oh, it absolutely is. Censorship in USSR was manual labor. The scale at which its is operating today is incomparable, as is the amount of false positives which it captures, as well as the variety of censored topics across different institutions.

arsenico | 2 years ago | on: The failure of self-checkout technology
I prefer self-checkout and use it pretty much every time I see an opportunity to do so. Living in the Netherlands, somehow self-checkout in Dutch supermarkets is very different from the ones I encounter in France or UK. Every time in France or UK I have issues with it primarily because the self-checkout tills have a very cumbersome and poorly working area where I have to put the checked products. Either they're doing a weight check or something, but it just doesn't work 75% of the time, which is extremely frustrating. Dutch supermarkets went with cheaper tills without this weight-check tech, and it just works every time.

Every third story on my Instagram is a scammy “investment education” ad. Somehow they get through the moderation queues successfully. I continuously report them but seems like the AI doesn’t learn from that.

Dropbox and Booking are good examples. Depends on what you call large though.
arsenico | 3 years ago | on: Rackspace founder says it’s ‘on trajectory of death.’
There's Vercel, there's Netlify, there are more. They all have their niche offerings, which sometimes beat what AWS does. However, they're not a _generic_ cloud hosting provider as Rackspace is. Seems like specialisation is the only way out for them.
