It would be v. funny if I got that wrong, but I do feel the need to point out that "badly" is indeed grammatically correct here because this is HN and pedantry is always on topic.
People over-correct and feel like they can't use "badly" because there is "feeling badly" discourse [0], but that pertains to "feeling" being a linking verb. "Write" is just your bog standard verb for which "badly", an adverb, is a totally valid modifier.
This is just a by the by, but in British English "feeling poorly" mostly means that you are ill. Amusingly it's become slightly euphemistic, so if someone is "a bit poorly" they probably have sniffles or a minor fever. If they are "very poorly" then you probably heard it from a hospital and they're just about dead.
Thus "I feel badly" ... "ok, what did you do?" vs. "I feel poorly" ... "ok, I'll get a bucket."
Eh, plenty of Chinese companies very used to government regulation that would thrive in the EU and not be bothered by their (relatively lesser) regulations.
It's not that China won't thrive in the EU; it's that from the EU's perspective, reliance on China may be even worse. Especially morally, considering China has no problem trading with Russia.
> The other part being, you don’t really have to write stuff down as much when you can just manipulate subjects of your authoritarian regime at will.
That creates a web of implicit rules that need to be complied with just as much as if they were written down, while having the downside of unclear boundaries and exceptions. An environment with more rules, but with them written in ink and with lawyers that can be consulted to interpret them is preferable.
Never let your TV have access to the Internet. Almost every time someone thinks their phone is listening to them, it is really their TV with a microphone and a WiFi or Bluetooth chip to id the phones nearby.
I have an older Vizio TV, was never connected to the internet but it does have wifi. Last year it started freezing up a lot, and I read that some people had resolved that problem by removing the wifi module. Since I never used it as anything but a dumb screen, I figured why not try it. I opened it up and did that, and it's been stable ever since.
yeah I just bought an apple tv appliance and my nice OLED samsung tv never gets anywhere near my wifi, except the first day I got it to update the firmware. It seems stable so the firmware will probably never be updated again in this or the next lifetime.
Sure, but everyone agrees that first class is full of perks. “People taller than 6’1 can sit here without being in pain” shouldn’t be a multi-hundred dollar up charge.
Maybe, but if you couldn't rationalize whatever makes you the most money being ethical then you probably wouldn't take a job at a place like Facebook in the first place.
Conveniently, that makes it easy to write your praise. It doesn't take much to go from "demographics like 'teenage girls with body insecurities' want relevant ads like beauty products! We're helping consumers to satisfy their needs!" to "showing teen girls aspirational images that drive them to buy beauty products (and happen to drive insecurities) is just helping them reach their potential! We're helping consumers to uncover needs they didn't know they had!" Wherever your comfort line was to decide to work there, you can probably drive it a little further with similar reasoning.
Neither do i, i drop it often, throw it about and its fine.
Everyone goes mad and is surprised, but whats the point if buying a nice phone then covering it in a case.
