So you don’t know much about him, except for the bad things you want to know about him?

The only advantage of “number off” is it comes with extra anxiety for free.

Pigboy doesn’t care. He got his paycheck.

But you need to understand, preventing deaths doesn’t make Google any money.

If it’s in the code, it’s a bug. If it’s not used, then remove it entirely. Everything in the code should be treated as operational.

They understand the theories and underlying principles, but the sheer amount of data makes it impossible to actually verify it.

An ELI5 comparison would be a hill of stones: you know when you throw more stones onto it, a “landslide” will occur and rearrange the hill. For a very small hill of 10 stones you may even be able to know input and output (“if I throw a stone there, the stones will be like this after the landslide”). But you cannot predict the same for a hill of 1000000 stones, even tho the “rules” are the same. You know what will happen, but you have no way to predict the outcome, or verify that everything went as expected.

The theory / math is not the problem. The scale is.

If valve loses this, they will clamp down on their features.

Because why would they provide infrastructure for free when the developer sells keys for less somewhere else?

If you expect them to provide storefront, infrastructure and community integration for free, I don’t think they will.

Survivorship bias. We only see the “good old programs” because the bad ones didn’t make it until now.

On top you get to live a normal life. A make-belief life, but you’ll never know.

Great. If you ignore that you still have a 40-50 years old car at that point. It’s not like EV was the only invention over the past 5 decades.

I didn’t know there’s a website to login to. Always ever used the app. But yes, I can open it:

I have two D5 and the app and cloud connection is working just fine!?

But they haven’t so far, and the question was why it’s popular at this moment.

Possible future enshittification disqualifies all software, unless you prevent it from going online - which you can also do with Unraid.

I genuinely thought it’s not limited, but yes, the trial.

Decent UI. Affordable lifetime pricing. Actually just-works. No retrospective enshittification. Free trial is actually free, not ad supported.

You get what you pay for, and you’re not the product.

That’s actually quite easy to explain. Reddits entire monetary value (or at least a very large portion) depends on how relevant it is as platform to mine user interactions - to use as training material for AI.

Reddit getting references less is a sign that the models, or the owning companies, value reddit data less compared to before.

Do we work for the same company? Exactly same story here. Also just botched the Oracle to Aurora migration.
