I am as impressed as I am horrified.

Why do thing easily when we can do them in the most horrific and wasteful way possible...

Shh.

I just don't buy this. It might be why the media is pushing an "end work from home" narrative but I don't believe the majority of execs are making the decision due to this reason. I think WFH just exposes that without the ability to physically harass and micro-manage people they don't provide much day to day value.

It’s probably a bit of everything we said here, plus cargo culting. WFH is probably more effective for some individuals and orgs and offices for others. I personally need it, because where I live has no real software dev jobs.

Here's a Reddit comment! https://old.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/3cs78i/whats_the...

The tone of that comment does sound a bit "dick-ish", but I can't be totally sure without knowing his history with that CEO. Thanks and I'll keep an eye out for more evidence like this. In videos he seems pretty nice to me, although it could of course be a facade.

One could argue reclaiming a company from a multinational corporate conglomerate back into founder hands is hardly “evil”.

And breaking a promise, siphoning money from a nonprofit, and making billions in the process.

Just an example of unapologetically going “Founder Mode”.

Wow he is very good at taking over companies

It's the same in Australia. I've seen little kids who are into a particular sport parrot off the odds for the game. It's crazy.

If you don't want to assemble a PiKVM yourself there's always Tiny Pilot: https://tinypilotkvm.com/

I don't want people to think TinyPilot is a bad option but this is where their marketing really grinds my gears. PiKVM and TinyPilot both have preassembled ordering option.

TinyPilot's compare and contrast point of "To exercise the full functionality of PiKVM, users must install a custom circuit board on top of their motherboard and re-route their power supply's ATX pins." is a complete farce (it's not required) and worded in an intentionally scary way (the only reason TinyPilot doesn't have this requirement it doesn't offer the feature while PiKVM does). The "custom circuit board" is literally a PCB that, optionally, allows you to jumper the inline the remote power controls in a way that the normal power buttons still work too rather than rely on ACPI signalling over USB.

It honestly makes my blood boil to see this underhanded approach works so well... the TinyPilot device is good though, as are some other options. Just keep in mind if you opt to go with ACPI only remote power controls via USB things may still go bad if your system hangs/crashes/gets in a weird power state whereas plugging in the wires to the PiKVM will be no different than holding the power button.

Outrageous claims require outrageous evidence.

Yes. They do.

Maybe you just have a faulty sarcasm detector?

It's no longer possible to tell. Some of the ideas that avg Americans have on the way just about anything works is frightening.

My favorite lately is that the US was the real bad guy in WWII because we used nukes.

That US was a "real bad guy", or that nuking cities was an evil and unnecessary thing? The latter, while not universally held, is a fairly common take, and has been that way for a few decades now.

I wasn't being sarcastic.

I've got no sound either. :(

Works in Firefox though.

I have definitely noticed that the search results are often old now. I constantly have to set "past year". Something that was otherwise rare not even a year or two ago.

I would like to pay for Kagi. But with this economy I'm belt tightening and adding another subscription seems crazy. Even if the experience is 100x better than Google's.

Search is one of the most complex and sophisticated products in the world. Genuinely curious, what other subscriptions are more important than access to high quality information that makes you even just 2x more productive and competitive in the world?

If you asked this in court, lawyers would stand up and say, "Objection! Leading!"

That's an argument, not a question.

Fair, I was interested in whether the argument was overlooked or already acknowledged and there is no way? to probe without inserting it.

(Side note: on TV, the lawyer says, "Objection, your Honor! Counsel is leading the witness!"

I've been to real trials. They don't bother with all that verbiage. "Leading!" is all they have to say.)

I don't disagree with you. But I've been slashing all of my subscriptions. At least to test whether I truly need said product. For instance I cancelled Intellij and used VS Code for 1.5 months. Went back after proving it was worth the sub.

It's hard to justify adding a new subscription when I'm getting by just fine without it.
