Just wet dream.

Did they try electric cars in winter in Europe? Do you think you'll able to ride more thann 500km without worries about power?

Electric cars are blind line and it fits only for makers because of money.

Is IT more and more toxic in last years?

Hi, I hope this topic is to big OT for hacker news.

I'm in IT (programming) for decade now and I lately see a lot of arrogants persons who are able to laught to your face because of different point of view / way of programming or they just read half of text or they are not accepting others possibilities.

I saw a lot of sharing skills / knowledges / point of views or just serious talk about IT stuff 10 years ago.

Today people is able to kick you because of something for months / years - they don't know everything about something but they're kicking. I'm not saying I'm expert on something.

I lost confidence in myself, I don't want to share my point of view or my code etc.

Is it just me or IT became more toxic with arrogants persons in last years?

Duckduckgo did a lot of progress in last 2-3 years.

When I began using it DDG had bad results but results are much closer to google's results today.

I know your feeling.

I was there too and I left cause mods were more interested about my english than about my answer - mostly correct.

SO beccame one big egoistic mess.

Google ignored EU so long and one day EU's lawmakers got upset.

Dear Youtube / Google / Alphabet, this mess is on your head.

The money isn't gone but cash-flow is.

With this step they will have better cash-flow earlier.

I'm programmer and I'm always saying (something like this) - the program / AI can be able to do things the best way how it can be done the best way by its programmer(s)

My point is - this is completely nonsense. IT world and Real world are two difference worlds.

It's look like Google needs wake up call.

New comment by waydowntogo in "Facebook confirms data sharing with Chinese companies"

waydowntogo — Wed, 06 Jun 2018 13:41:04 +0000

People won't share their data / thoughts etc.

No users / data = no ads. No ads, no cash. No cash means no FB.

Btw Fb's losing users in big already.

It's classic.

Only one thing can destroy big company / country etc - inside job.

In my point of view this is beginning of FB's end.

Btw If Microsoft would mean that seriously (supporting open source) the new owner would be some foundation (something like mozilla).

It looks like they were expecting everything but mass panic.

Well developers aren't skype's users.
