bro, a serious question. which part of it is "fast"?


The trip to the loony bin.


Well, you have a point here lol


> "built privacy into Recall’s design" from the beginning, and users will have control over what is captured.

> For example, users can opt out of capturing certain websites, and private browsing on Microsoft's own Edge browser will not be captured.

bro, privacy but opt-out is kind of unsmart, innit?


> For example, users can opt out of capturing certain websites

I'm sure people will feel a lot better knowing that if they don't AI capturing screenshots of every porn site they visit, when, for how long, and how often, they just have to send MS a list of all the porn sites they visit and MS will promise not to watch.


Porn sites will be used to prosecute you later. (see Assange or every person who messed up with the CIA).

The Matrix is doing well.


well, that's a given, bro. you guys only steal yet you complain when what you steal makes your result "poor".


got blocked by recaptcha, bro.


if they connected recaptcha to it it's cringe (cloudflare counts too)


not sure what you mean. but it's here. https://imgur.com/a/Wlew4rW


bro your comment hits a bit too close to home. my partner took her master's degree yet she couldn't find a matching job in our area. at the very least, she now has better grasp on some things that actually matter to our life and her input is really valuable for me. so all in all, it's fine I guess.


I guess unisuper will get a truck load of free credit from this fuck up. anyway, I won't suggest GCP to any question related to cloud service provider.


Any question? Even "What is the worst cloud service provider?"


Or even "Which cloud provider has fucked up a business customer the worst, so far?".


I think that’s the reason why this is a “joint” statement. Google must have seriously spent.


i heard many times about hell joseon, mate. seems like working your back off without decent remuneration cannot support living a decent life.


bro, if you want your employee work more, just pay your employees more. what's so hard to understand about it?


Or hire more people.

Forty hours already feels excessive. I’m not gonna spend more time rotting in front of a screen for a pay bump.


nah bro. snoyberg was a proponent of haskell and now is rustacean.


bro how much did you pay for your car that is presumably around 1000kg?


I'm not sure that is a good comparison. My old car cost ~$500 and weighed about 1000kg. If anything that is a comment on consumerism and not the value of things.

The value of this platform comes from the R&D, scale, support, packaged software, etc, etc.

Assuming they sell 10000 units at an average ~$300. At that scale likely a $100 of each unit is in parts/tooling, then assembly/flashing/testing. That's approximately $20mn to be split by:

1. Likely minimum team of 10 people on development for 4 years, at ~$100k per year (with overheads), for $4mn. Kickstarter in 2020: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/petoi/bittle

2. Investors probably threw in $4mn along the way and look to claw that back (couldn't find investment info on a quick search).

3. Tax appears to be ~20% in most places, so 20% of $30mn is $6mn.

Leaving approximately $6mn, everybody gets a bump and they are left with enough to expand and run the company for ~2-4 years without needing to raise additional investment. That's a lot of pressure to get a new product out there.
