Pure smear comment. Signal was and is the choice of personal messaging app for anyone I know who has ever worked in security or intelligence. That should say it all. Aside from apple, who did it because of them, it has set the gold standard for e2e chat. People moan about the phone number and “metadata” when in reality all this can be used for is to say yes x has a signal account and this is when they last used it. That’s it. It’s effectively useless to anyone. People moan about it leveraging the local social graph of the device it’s a necessary convenience for the adoption of any modern chat app. They go into great detail about how it is and isn’t used in a way that it cannot be used/viewed by others.
Frankly I’d bet half the people smearing it have X and Facebook apps installed on there phones and really aren’t serious people.
If I wanted to smear off topic I’d point out that telegram, along with the usual suspects, is a gold mine for intelligence gathering for what I’ve heard.
If someone say "please don't email me about this anymore" after writing a hit piece on someone and there company without giving them an opportunity to respond they are being provocative, goading and a troll.
Lori isn't writing a 'hit peice' she is writing a short post that is in effect a review of the service and the company and the founder.
If the founder wants to respond they can write a respectful blog post and put it on the fucking homepage. They don't have a right to harangue the author via email.
I mean, your email is kind of an open box that people can stuff letters into. If you don’t like the letters from someone you can rip them up unopened (send to trash).

Honestly after reading this guys follow up rant about the CEO contacting him directly for an opportunity to address any of the points made in this post, this comes off as nothing more than a hit piece. Just saying ive said my piece and I have no interest in hearing any follow up or rebuttals is just classic modern day social media journalism. Suprised the CEO stayed so cool in his follow ups with this guys attempt to goad the CEO into loosing his cool in a private email so he could plaster it all over the web - he comes accross as nothing more than a drama troll.
You explicitly said tax dollars going towards and bought up public and private sector in a thinly veiled politically charged nonsense comment. Now your playing innocent. In my opinion of course.
The whole point of this lawsuit is that their jobs are being made harder with no additional resources.
Would you prefer the additional resources required to deal with the issues outlined in the lawsuit come from “your tax dollars” or from those causing the costs?
It’s a classic socialize the costs privatize the profits situation where negative costs caused by private sector are paid for by the taxpayer.
Ironically your viewpoint if it were to stand will inevitably cost you more “tax dollars” when we have to pay the increased costs of dealing with these issues in schools rather than those responsible paying.
This is the closest looking open source one I’ve seen to linear which is by far the best kanban I’ve used maybe one inspired the other, either way looks good though linear is so polished. Introduced it to a client and it gets heavy use and the cycles concept is well liked
Always a divide between people in these threads who assign pure genius as the sole reason for success and those who live in reality and accept that you also need allot of luck and cash on the way.
Yeah. I can absolutely believe that NVIDIA saw the potential for GPUs (and associated software) that went beyond hardcore gaming nerds building their own PCs. But HPC generally was not a very profitable market for most vendors and I don't really believe that crypto and LLMs as they have played out to date was especially foreseeable at a detailed level.
I think forum post quality probably is well in decline when posters start making popular meta posts about how people with their view are in reality and people without are delusional.
It was an observation of how every thread like this plays out not a “popular meta post”. I wouldn’t go as far as to say delusional I was more going for it’s naive to assign success purely to genius in the same way it’s naive to attribute a single cause or solution to climate change. In fact I think even that’s generous given that’s a future prediction that was not a guess or a gamble. Perhaps a better example would be for me to write a post about a massive successful stock trade or crypto where A) I had the cash to do it and B) things I gambled might happen went even better than I thought. There would be people assigning all the success to me when likely there were other similar plays I made that I lost big on as well as plenty of other people who saw it but simply didn’t have the means or timing to make it happen. So yes I think it’s naive to assign this and most to purely genius. You need a little luck and cash in reality on the way.
The drivers have been fine for years now, anyone using a current or previous gen knows it, the only reason people think they are still bad is because people are still parroting it.
As of 2 years ago, which saw similar “the drivers are fine now and have been for a couple generations”, they are anecdotally not okay.
Way more crashes. Way more weird bullshit (like audio disappearing????) that just doesn’t happen when you run an Nvidia card.
“AMD drivers are fine now” has lost all meaning. I will continue to give them a chance now and again, but it’s based on keeping competitive up, not on the drivers being good now.
Unfortunately this isn't true. They're certainly better than what they used to be, but they are no where near as reliable as Nvidia's. We tried a build out roughly 6 months ago and we couldn't switch back fast enough.
Are you talking about windows GPU drivers for gaming? I haven't had problems on Linux in a long time and I am honestly surprised with how many hours I have spent gaming on Linux with Proton.
An unreal amount more. No - seriously. It practically has everything you need to build a game. I guess a clear and easy way to learn it though.. that it cannot seem to provide.
