I don’t get it either! It’s a good article and I 100% agree with the author. Maybe it’s because it’s talking about a service and the whole article can be considered as advertisement, but I don’t agree.

Stephen Hawes
He made really cool electronics projects and I used to be his patreon. Now he started a company that makes pick and place machines and all of his videos are exclusively about that. No more cool projects.
Alexandre Chappel
He is a very good maker and designer. He used to make videos about different interesting projects until he bought an apartment and started renovating it himself. Similarly to Stephen’s, all of his videos are about that now. No more interesting projects.
“Thanks for all the good memories”
I don’t really care for this product. It’s another unnecessary AI assistant. What I’m struggling to understand is why it matters which platform it’s been built on. What difference would it make if they wrote an entire OS from scratch only for this device instead of using Android, if the end product would be the same?
Same here! And I have the exact same questions as you. I can’t see why that’s racist or disrespectful, but I’d like to hear other points of view.
For me it was the Dolomites, in Italy. I considered abandoning my current life and moving there several times during my trip.

I like this idea too, but in some countries if you don’t pay something, the company can add you to a nationwide “blacklist” that will give you a lot of headaches later. For instance, trying to get a loan from a bank, or insurance for something. There’s a good chance those will be denied if you are on that list.
As I read somewhere:
Dependency Injection is a 25-dollar term for a 5-cent concept.
I feel you. I’m a Senior Backend Engineer, and the more experienced I get, the less I code. And the meetings… so many meetings!
This is something I struggle with constantly. I feel like everybody around me does not care about their privacy. All of them say the typical “Why go through all the effort, sacrificing a lot of functionality and convenience for the sake of privacy? I have nothing to hide!”. It drives me crazy, and I feel kind of powerless without a convincing argument that makes them at least understand that installing stuff like Instagram on your phone is basically willingly installing a virus. They don’t even get surprised anymore when the ads they see are about stuff they were talking about with someone else in real life, and never mentioned or searched in their phones. I’m afraid that this will only get worse with time, and new generations that are being born under these circumstances are going to see it as normal. This means that making them understand the implications of not taking their privacy seriously is going to be harder and harder. I won’t give up, though. I’m still searching for my “irrefutable argument”.
