Noone is gonna give you some groundbreaking tech for your electronic gadget.... As IBM showed when they created the Cell for Sony and then gave almost the same tech to Microsoft :D.

I don’t think they ever claimed that. Every time Mark Cerny discusses PS hardware he always mentions that it’s a collaboration, so whatever works for AMD they can use on their own GPUs, even for other clients.

I'm just saying no sane company gonna give you any edge in chiptech.

No, this is the result that companies dngaf about your private data. Sue them to oblivion.


Hard disagree. Companies could care about your data and still be subject to rbeach. ID verification is the source of the issue.


Everyone, please, don't fight.

It's both.

The companies wouldn't have this specific data if it wasn't for the age verification laws. Companies also work to amass as much private data as possible about their users without any influence from government and are often not good stewards of it.

Let's also not forget that companies like Discord often support and work with governments on these kind of laws because they prefer a consolidated regulatory structure and it has the added benefit of making life more difficult for smaller competitors that may enter the space.


Anyone with a semblance of security awareness wouldn't store photo ids in net accessible storage


Discord always was a privacy nightmare. How come people upload ids there? And why do the service stores them in hot storage?


Pay? You mean putting the "you are using X, why not try chrome" adtext everywhere for every search result?


And paying money to software vendors to bundle Chrome with "Set Chrome as default browser" ticked by default. This is exactly the same thing all the malware browsers and toolbars did in the time period too.


More like having a team of between 1000 and 1500 full time software engineers working on it over a period of more than a decade.


Even if you had 1000 developers who worked for free, you can't get a billion people to care about software quality beyond a certain point.


There is zero difference between firefox and chrome for a layman.


Yes, but also paying for distribution and paying for it to be the default browser.


Would be nice to have visit statistics per domain. So people who host their live sites could determine who visits and what on archive.org under their domain vs their live site :).


The site eats cpu time like there is no tomorrow. Overcomplicate it a tad bit more so fans could go at 110% speed.


Deepseek is much more creative; it's mind-bendingly creative with simple prompts. Qwen, just like ChatGPT is folding on in itself. They gotten much worse with simple prompts as time progressed. Maybe because they tried to optimize the answers to be shorter and concise, changed the system prompts etc.


There might be unknown unknowns....


Go IPO.


And they make a terrible job. At least on the surface, what's being fed to the humans.
