Sure but it will just select the word in your browser

If the only thing it did was give me references that's already a leg up

Shrug, programmers always have weird names for things https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8OnoxKotPQ

I also don't read all of the terms and conditions, and I feel free to get mad at unreasonable items that I discovered while using the product. Fight me.

Have you considered taking neutrino supplements?

The nice thing about them is that they're flavour changing

My neighbor takes them so I get the benefits too.

It's up to you if you think it's "better" but it's answering the question of whether Peano axioms are the only fundamental structure

Category Theory itself assumes the existence of natural numbers. My point was about whether their futher "axiomatization" via a functor makes it easier to prove theorems or make discoveries.

This is exactly why even as a programmer I don't own pretty much any tech crap at all. No cloud connected home automation, photo frames, voice assistant, smart lock, wifi washing machine, nothing. The whole industry is just too brittle and unreliable and your money will evaporate the moment some product manager doesn't want to schedule a bug fix and kills the product instead because it's easier than meeting the promises that you already made. I minimise the number of computers and phones and whatever else to what I'm willing to spend a bunch of time updating and maintaining.

A tech enthusiast has all the latest gadgets and gizmos, everything connected to the cloud, and loves showing it off to guests.

Someone who works in tech, the most advanced technology they own is a laser printer from 2005, and they keep a loaded gun next to it in case it makes a funny noise.

As a programmer you should look into Home Assistant and the self hosted community in general. You can achieve a lot and don't have to shut yourself out of legitimate technological improvements that are limited by some other company's cloud.

Increasingly, a lot of those "legitimate technological improvements" are completely destroying interoperability. Google, in particular, has been making a lot of such annoying moves in the past couple years, on Android, GSuite, WearOS, and now Photos.

Legitamate technological improvements include thread, which allows local control of devices with no cloud servers involved, which lets you use home assistant or an equivalent

Yea, I have plenty of home automation, all of which operates just fine without any external internet connection whatsoever. You just have to do a little research on what to buy.

especially as a programmer.

All of our technology is presented as seemless, integrated, secure, and robust and couldn’t be further from the truth.

after working at Amazon for a couple of years I ended up closing my AWS account

That there is a computer at ATC that a human looks at, reads what it says with their eyes, speaks those instructions over the radio in a specific protocol, another human listens to it (and confirms within that protocol), and inputs those control signals into the airplane.

Computer -> human -> radio(spoken protocol) -> human -> plane.

There aren't a lot of practical reasons it can't just be

Computer -> radio(digital protocol) -> plane

(There are nonzero reasons, such as the presence of weird situations, VFR aircraft, etc., but it's not a lot.)

Sometimes having humans in the loop is a feature, not a bug.

In that case the pilot would still be able to override controls

In the latest crash, the heli was on VFR, and that situation happens often at DCA since it also serves general aviation.

No? You can have a photos app that doesn't phone home while not having to move to a cabin in the woods. See: every photos app that doesn't phone home, and I currently don't live in a cabin in the woods.

> I love how I get downvoted for every negative comment about this rather than an actual rebuttal of the issues.

It's because you haven't mentioned any issues. Just said it's terrible and buggy. Nobody can debug that for you based on that description. If they haven't experienced the same "issues", the best they can say is "nuh uh".
