Only after informing you, giving you the opportunity to fix things and many many other steps. The harshness is directly related to the size of the company and the companies willingness to fix any issues. They want companies to comply.
For the same reason css still works if you make a typo and javascript super dynamic: its a friendly interface.
Html, css and js got used so much because you could mess around and still get something to work. While other languages that people use to write “serious” applications just screamed at you for not being smart enough to know how to allocate memory correctly.
Html and css is not a competitor to C. Its more like an alternative to file formats like txt or rtf. Meant to be written by hand in a text editor to get styled pages. So easy and forgiving your mom could do it! (And did, just like everyone else in the myspace days)
IANAL, but Canada has far stronger labo(u)r laws than the US. They should all be lawyering up, whether it be for some union busting law or plain old wrongful termination.
even better, in countries like germany, any individual can just join a union. and it is simply a matter of enough people joining up. there is no need for employees to even organize themselves to get unionized. also, any company with more than 50 people is required to have a betriebsrat by law, regardless of any employees being in a union or not. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Works_council
yes the roads, which in some municipalities, are paved in a manner acording to who voted for who on some country roads, with perfect asphalt extending the whole way in front of one big farm, exactly between property markers.
But that, and other things are what you get from a constitutional monarchy that has some if the oddest legal provisions on the planet.
I wont say we like it, but we are good at it.
So Microsoft went from 49% to now 27%? Open AI with their non-profit and their for-profit and all these investments and deals they are doing. It feels like they are spending more time doing financial trickery than building AI products.
There's a public trail of reddit comments where Altman all but owns up to finagling board seats and ownership rights for Reddit many years ago. This is how he operates.
From what I know, the current rules don't say anything about region locking features like apple is doing. The EU regulations might be slow in reaction time but they are not playing around. You can be sure that they will continually close loopholes and avoidance strategies until Apple (and others) aren't a gatekeeper anymore.
The way Apple and others misuse their market position to get away with anything is ridiculous. At a certain size or influence you shouldn't be both a platform for other companies and products and a participant in that platform while giving yourself all sorts of advantages.
Airpods are decent but they have most of their market share due to the massive integration gap from competitors. So shit it's impossible for anyone to compete.
I’m not sure I’d call this a loophole per se. I don’t think governments should be refusing to let you take your ball and go home if you don’t want to sell things that create more compliance work/risk. I was just curious if this kind of jurisdictional edge case matters.
Do the relevant provider-agnostic Bluetooth audio standards (in USB they’d be class devices, not sure on Bluetooth terminology) have equivalent features that Apple is refusing to just implement? I think it’s reasonable to ask Apple to support interoperability standards once the industry settles on them, but it seems weird to incentivize them to create bespoke standards that they control in an effort to reduce their market power.
that's like worrying about external people having access to the drivers wallet in the case of a fatal crash. Like yeah sure but it's more likely that Tesla is sketchy considering their vested interest is controlling crash data reports
In The Netherlands you just tap your card when you get in and when you get out. the fare is computed based on how many stops you went. No app needed. Supports all the virtual cards too like apple pay etc...
Its surprisingly useful to know if you’re working with a entity that you made.
