Doesn’t go against anything he’s ever said.

More’s law is at the most fundamental level a observation about the exponential curve of technological progress.

No. Let me reiterate:

Moore’s Law was an observation that semiconductor transistor density roughly doubles every ~2 years.

It is not about technological progress in general. That’s just how the term gets incorrectly applied by a small subsect of people online who want to sound like they’re being technical.

Moore’s Law is what I described above. It is not “technology gets better”.

I am so tired of people, especially people who pretend to be computer experts online, completely failing to understand what Moore’s Law is.

Moore’s Law != “Technology improves over time”

It’s an observation that semiconductor transistor density roughly doubles every ~2 years. That’s it. It doesn’t apply to anything else.

And also for the record, Moore’s Law has been dead for a long time now. Getting large transistor density improvements is hard.

MakieLab still exists, even though it is now owned by Disney. YouTube still exists and has its own CEO despite being owned by Google. Skoda still exists and is its own entity despite being bought by VW.

I don’t see how his wife being the CEO of a company that got bought by Disney counts as him making points from an unsavoury position.

Firstly, people are not their spouses. Secondly, there’s no proof I’ve seen that this company goes against the things that Cory speaks of.

Her running MakieLab (which might indeed utilise DRM, idk) doesn’t invalidate her husband’s point.

To my knowledge, the ‘AI’ Mozilla has currently is an offline (and completely private) language translation feature, and enhanced screen reader functionality for blind people.

I don’t think those are bad. They make the web more accessible. If they were branded as machine learning features, I doubt you’d be taking issue with them. Literally the only reason people complain about this is because of two meaningless letters being used in the release notes.

Ah yes. That classic bogeyman of F1. Any time someone gets criticised for anything, just blame the British press. Be it when Alonso does a move the stewards doesn’t like, Max getting booed at Brazil in '21, etc…

As if most of the complaining about this clown doesn’t come from people directly in F1. E.g. Max, Lewis, and others calling his swearing ban nonsense.

Stopped watching netflix because they banned sharing accounts and £18 (24 USD) monthly was too much for just one person. Cheaper plans didn’t have 4K or 5.1 audio, so it felt like a waste when I couldn’t even use my setup as it is meant to be used.

Never watched prime because I refuse to pay for something then still see ads.

Now I either source stuff by other means (🏴‍☠️🦜) and put it on my media server, or I use BBC iPlayer. Not sure if that’s a thing outside of the UK, but zero ads and decent quality programming is something I’m happy to pay their fee for, especially when it also goes towards funding ad-free TV, radio, news, sport, podcasts, etc.

It’s fucked how greed has completely ruined the streaming market. Back in ~2010 it felt like the market was going in such a positive direction.

Eh, not everyone is fit to be a moderator.

I don’t feel I have the time (this issue is made worse by my timezone not aligning up with the most active hours for communities), nor do I have the maturity and level-headedness to be a fair and impartial moderator.

E: oops replying 3 days later. I’m surprised this thread is still in my feed…

Coming from the guy that tried to blackmail his team into under-fueling his rookie teammate’s car, who constantly stokes conspiracy theories of xenophobia against Spaniards whenever he gets criticised or punished for on-track behaviour, and who directly benefitted and was involved with Crashgate.

He’s moaning about the team’s fuckups. Doesn’t mean the brain drain issue or car development mistake is anything to do with him (because they aren’t).

Jos did not cause the brain drain. Jos did not cause development problems. He is not involved with the running of the team.

It wasn’t anything to do with him. Not one iota of it is his fault. Zero. Nothing.

I struggle to see how anybody could even think it is. You seem to believe he works for Red Bull F1… what do you think he does?

Nintendo does still make good games, and they’re the only ones who seem to care about multiple people playing together while sitting on the couch, as opposed to focussing only on online multiplayer across multiple systems.

Which is why it’s so annoying that they do evil shit on the side like this. Nintendo are litigious to an absolutely callous degree. Wankers.

I feel dirty for agreeing with him on this lol

As much of a cunt as Jos is, Red Bull’s brain drain problem, and the other problems the team has had recently, are nothing to do with him.

lol

I doubt it’s religion.

Theresa May was all about drug control because her husband is high up in a company that pretty much has a monopoly on medical cannabis export. Relaxing the rules would be bad for his business. Wouldn’t surprise me if that company was a donor to the Tory party.

New labour, in the early 2000s, made moves to be more lenient on cannabis, and they were absolutely hounded by the conservative press for it, which then prompted them to reverse track.

No, if you have any amount of money. Large or small.

Havingess money, if anything, presses you to kill projects more.

I’d give them a lot more credit if they weren’t so brazenly corrupt and petty.

Even better
