I see this in media all the time. Make factual statements and imply they are connected, but with zero data if they actually are. Or claim "People are doing X" without any data if a statistically relevant number are actually doing X or just the 2 people they found as an example


99% of the time security is about securing the product from the user. Just like Google's action we're commenting under


An economic crisis will reduce tax income though, reducing the ability of government to pay even if the interest is lower


In the long term, yes. In the medium term, companies and people liquidating their assets and paying capital gains tax actually gives the state a windfall.


If the goal of Putin is to destroy the US through illogical fiscal policies by means of using his Puppet, it all makes sense.


His last comment in the video "we humans are losing faith in ourselves" clearly about the overall concept and not just the particular creature though


Apple deletes your entire library if you don't subscribe for a few months. To me that is worse than anything Spotify has ever done wrong


I recently unsubscribed because I definitely saw a lot of AI music. I do think Spotify has the best UI and user created playlists of all platforms though


For me Spotify had best UI in 2012. Native, clean, simple, ultra fast.


Well, that elevates my paperwhite to literally perfect(for me at least). The process was smooth and now I have Koreader on it.


The short notice was a self inflicted problem. Biden's issues did not start in July 2024


For sure. I am asking who could they have picked after Biden's performance at the debates? E.g. after the damage was done. Kamala was probably the most prominent of all democrats at the time. The alternative would have been some no name senator or Hillary.


Koreader handles the reading part perfectly on my Boox device. For ftp I use the default Boox functionality which works well for me. Einkbro is good but I ultimately stick to Firefox for the sync between devices. No experience with other launchers as I don't use any other apps and the default one doesn't bother me


+1 for Kobo on Boox. +20 for EInkBro (which I use with Bazqux reader for awesome RSS experience).

Some other apps that work (not amazingly but they do work well enough ) are Todoist, readwise reader (hard to use but good to have locally to check excerpts and notes), Syncthing and obsidian (but only to read notes in case to want to check something)

Blinklist (?) audio reader worked too. Outlook too. But most of these apps I just use them to look things up and avoid switching to phone when reading (I leave the phone in my room while at home)


In the real world companies have no idea who the top and bottom 10% are because they use extremely low quality productivity metrics


Obviously it excludes all of the connections, institutional knowledge, and other duties as assigned that typically make up the brunt of the magic that keeps things functional but that managers are generally too afraid to acknowledge or ask for resources for, if they're even aware.
