Powdered milk is a miracle wasted on the poor, the fact that no company has jumped on “freeze dried milkshakes” that you just add water to shows that America has lost its entrepreneurial spirit.

Oh no my bone spurs are acting up again

Microsoft spent $7.5 billion for Github, and managed to find use for the repo.

I can see some sort of subscription service where Nvidia allows you to run on model on their hardware. And also something has to boost their valuation to drive the stock up, and releasing new cards right now is a waste with RAM prices going ever upwards.

So you’ll see these refers in lots of sites, and it’s likely just statistics collection. If the referring text is always the same, it’s that the site legitimately just wants to know hwo many people are clicking a particular link.

You’ll see it really often in email newsletters that they will end in ref=fromemail or ref=fronsocial when posted to social media. On the database side, all the tracking information would be aggregated under the same one.

As with everything, this can be used in a harmless way or more maliciously, but at end of the day, all it helps is identify where particular traffic is coming from. For YouTube, the ID is connected to who shared the link, when it was shared, etc. It attempts to use that information against the person who clicked the link to try and work out better ads and YouTube recommendations for both of them, so you’ll stay in YouTube longer and see more ads.

This is your yearly reminder that Steve Jobs did not want an app store on the iPhone, he believed websites could provide app like experiences.

Apple to this day reject or severely limit the Progressive Web App experience despite being on the consortium handling the standard.

No one at Microsoft gives a shit about what you are doing, they want to know what updates broke.

I mean, it depends if you want it to be positive, read Issac Asmov’s Robert Vision and if you think it’s too pessimistic, move to Arthur C. Clarke (Rondevouz with Rama is always a good pick me up, although the “Space Boobies” passage is a bit of struggle.), if you want more pessimism, go for Iain M. Banks (Consider Phlebas is the first in The Culture series.)

When the story of the band makes you forget that they really only made one album of note
