iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Pizza Hut to lay off California workers after minimum wage increase
This has nothing with minimum wage which is increasing to $20 for everyone in Seattle on January 1st and isn’t triggering a wave of fast food layoffs. This is just typical corporate cost cutting.

There were multiple incidents and people were killed
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Apple Spent $1B on the M3 Tape-Out, Says Analyst
I see headlines like this and my first thought is how Elon Musk spent $43B to force people to read his bigoted tweets instead of literally anything else.
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: We have decided to pause driverless operations across all of our fleets
“We’ve decided to do shutdown after we were ordered to because our product killed some people”
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Senators push for unredacted 9/11 documents on Saudi Arabia
Suspicious timing. The current attacks in Israel are trying to detail the normalization of relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Vivaldi on iOS
I have tested this with half a dozen Chrome extensions and none of them worked. “Allows install” is misleading. “Allows download” is more accurate.
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Floorp – A customisable Firefox fork from Japan
I have been using it for months and it’s great. It’s like Vivaldi but with Firefox under the hood instead of Chrome.

This very poorly written
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Mastodon 4.2 released, with (opt-in) search, and UX improvements
A useless platform until they implement quote tweets. It’s been years. What is taking them so long?

USB-C means you’ll still have different cables with different speeds for different devices but now they’ll all look the same.

It doesn’t have to be Siri itself. Any app that Apple gave access to the Siri private API could have done this.

No.

You should give Floorp a try. It’s like Vivaldi but with Firefox under the hood instead of Chrome.

Optimistic to believe the internet, computers, or electric power will still exist in 100 years

iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Tell HN: t.co is adding a five-second delay to some domains
Yeah. HN bans your favorite white supremacist blogs. I don’t see a problem with that.
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Fourteen days across the Atlantic, perched on a ship’s rudder
Americans commenting on this need to keep in mind that they could become refugees if there is an American civil war. It’s easy to judge others until you lose your home and all your possessions.
iguana_lawyer | 2 years ago | on: Ask HN: What will it take to get more people using Mastodon more?
Quoting someone while providing commentary/context is literally what journalists does. Mastodon is hostile to journalism.
