How would you tackle that? Unless you build a really intelligent system that’s allowed to interpret and reword and understand the significance (or lack thereof) of emojis in context, it sounds tough. Like, generally speaking, you just wouldn’t be able to tell how important an emoji is to the message, when writing an algorithm.
You know, it’s not always, but apple does sell things that are price-competitive with similarly performing competing products.
Some iterations of the Mac Mini have been hard to beat with a tiny PC with similar performance.
The M1 MacBooks had some surprisingly cheap options for the relatively premium laptops they were.
Samsung’s Ultra phones tend to cost more or less the same as the Apple Pro Max phones.
The main difference is sometimes just that Apple doesn’t make low-end or low-mid-range, or sometimes not even anything below “relatively high-end”, products in a particular category.
I wish you were wrong. But…
A Climate Town video convinced me natural gas actually manages to be worse.
Natural gas is methane, and it’s extremely hard to handle that without having any leaks, ever. And since methane is a very powerful greenhouse gas, it doesn’t take that much leaked gas to cross the line into “worse than coal”.
And there are lots of leaks.
I mean it was hardly news to begin with.
Wait they’re still adding natural gas? Geez.
Hmm, but then we’re outwardly dissing it and we can’t confidently put it in serious reporting.
And aren’t technically respectful disses the best?
I also like Xitter, because in my head that can only be pronounced Shitter, which is a good name for it.
Oh I see. Well if it has exactly the same API, if that API also has weird legacy stuff built in that hinder developers, then maybe not, but overall that does sound very similar, yes!
Yeah, that makes sense. If it’s starting to bite them in the butt, though, maybe they should start relegating that stuff to emulation, if they can write a good enough emulator.
I don’t know when. Maybe it’s already gone by, maybe it’s in the future. But there’s probably a point in time when all of that backward compatibility stops being worth it.
I don’t understand
While I haven’t diven into their codebase, that kind of thing tends to severely limit what developers can do to improve the product, slow them down, etc.
Be it new features, deeper UX improvements, performance optimizations… Basically anything you want to do with your progress, generally speaking, it’s going to get harder the more legacy stuff you need to deal with.
My god, the amount of legacy crap in Windows.
They ought to just start over at some point.
Does your tram get stuck in traffic or something? Why is it that slow?
I don’t know much about trams but I kinda feel like that’s not supposed to happen.
I don’t think anyone’s arguing for no busses. It’s more like not only busses.
To be honest I just look at the state of the world and laugh like I’m watching a sad comedy.
And I avoid thinking about how I’m in it and I have basically zero power over it.
I vote for whomever is the least bad candidate and try not to think about it too much the rest of the time.
That article is so positive it almost reads like an ad. I’m suspicious, but hey if it can melt my phone last longer, I’ll keep a gram of optimism.
Hah, that’s smart. I like that.
Also woo, dials. I hate how most ovens use capacitive buttons nowadays.
You know what happens when I stop visiting Facebook? I don’t learn anything about extended family because they don’t give a shit about me.
You know what happens when you sell not on Marketplace here? You get like 10 clicks a month and you don’t sell.
You know what happens when you message people not on Messenger? You’re the annoying person on the hipster app/sending text messages to a phone number and people don’t talk to you unless talked to first.
Also, good for you if you’re a significant enough friend to be invited personally, but no one invites me anywhere unless I show up in a list of people to invite.
I realize my comment was a bit too generalizing but holy shit dude calm down
That might be good. With text to speech getting as good as it’s getting, it’s probably getting in the realistic territory, too.
