Waymo is really premium and more like getting an Uber Black, probably better. You get to talk shit with your friends as loud as you want, play your own music, and there's no pressure about anything. You know exactly how long it'll wait. What it feels like is those movies where the rich guy has a private driver with a privacy screen like a limo. The overall standard of the vehicles is very high, clean, and safe feeling

That's so cool, maybe the first time in the history of humanity that we see open source tax software, that's guaranteed to be accurate to the law. For one year at least

It runs Scala / Java, and has docker configs, decent documentation. And an ominous message explaining that some parts were too secret to open source so they had to rewrite chunks of it. Overall, it seems like it was a big project just to get this published, and I am impressed they managed it, given the software team was comprised of 3 different agencies and several contractor firms

Power of what sort?

Yes, welcome

Whoa! You can get energy from gravity and spin?? Who would have guessed

ostensibly

That's just any store

You may find it funny to learn that Signal's early development was funded by an arm of the govt that focuses on distributing ideology worldwide -- US Agency For Global Media (Radio Free Asia and Open Technology Fund)

You may also find it interesting that Trump eliminated this entire agency about two months ago

Why did the USA run all these programs and fund privacy software? Ostensibly to help people in oppressive regimes communicate. To broadcast alternative media

Idk he makes some pretty wild claims along the way

• AI is only going to become more expensive for corps with time. This has ~never been true in computing, where specialized hardware and optimizations trend costs down
• That marketing managers are dumbass easy marks who are wasting their company money. Every half way decent marketing department measures outcomes and knows exactly how much money is generated by their activities

Well...

If you follow the link to fedidb, refer to the "mau" monthly active users. Do some brief math and realize that lemmy.world accounts for about 50% of all active users

Email market share is harder, but many estimate that Gmail accounts for over 40%. Many many orgs use Google apps to make custom branded gmails with their own domains too

This is the typical "business power law" that states that the top player should control about 50%, the second player about 25%, etc. This is just kinda how the world works

Well, thanks for explaining
