With end to end encryption, and requiring manual key transfer (no key sync), this would not be an issue.

Users don't care about federation. For them, there is no such category as "federated chat". There is only "chat".

XMPP never had significant market share among the instant messengers of the time (except maybe as custom solutions for work chat, but not as a consumer service).

2017, previous phase is now complete, XMPP is virtually unheard of.

So it returned back to a state where it would have been without Google anyway.

All the Jabber clients and services combined were never even close to rivaling ICQ, AIM, MSN, Skype, or whatever else ruled the IM space back then.

On Reddit, joke (usually bad joke, low effort meme or pop culture reference) comments were the absolute worst kind of spam that destroyed the readability of comment threads.

That sort of content belongs in its own space, not polluting places that are still worth reading.

That will never work as long as they're the only country in that situation. They would need to be mixed with athletes from other unrelated countries for this to make sense.

It's just like a car having an odometer. This would come in handy when buying second-hand, remember all the uncertainty about the condition of used GPUs?

(That is assuming they make the state user-readable though.)

It's not actually for safety - it's because they want their own software to be the only option.

It's the same move Apple uses whenever they block something in the name of "security".

Well you don't have to place it in a separate function, nothing stops you from inlining that part and writing li or whatever directly there.

It's up to you how you organize your components.

But why bother with creating a new language, and duplicating all the features your language already has, in a weird way?

If I want a list of UI items based on an array of some data, I can just do items.map(item => 〈Item key={item.id} item={item} /〉), using the normal map function that's already part of the language.

Or I can use a function, e.g. items.map(item => renderItem(item, otherData)) etc.

JSX itself is a very thin layer that translates to normal function calls.

Still better than whatever the hell this is

The more you scroll down, the worse it gets.

And this too: https://vuejs.org/guide/essentials/list

A new separate language with features that already existed in the original language (and worked with all its tooling, etc.)

Custom template language and custom DOM attributes are way weirder than just using language-native constructs (ternary operator, map/filter, variables, functions, etc.) directly like you can in JSX.

This is a specific case where former immigrants are leaving in supposedly significant numbers.

Just get rid of the pretense and make a proper market for delivery orders with bids and asks.

Then you can place a limit order for your pizza, to be delivered whenever there is someone willing to deliver at or below your stated price, and vice versa.

I keep hearing how good AI is at coding these days, why can't they just use it to rewrite all the model and library code up to full AMD support?

Thanks, the second link talks about this in the "data.plist" and Mac serial numbers section.

Why would they do that? This thing aligns with their interests (more money in the industry)

Doesn't iMessage require some sort of Apple-issued device id? A key, unique to a device, hard-coded in the SoC? (which is easy to block if over-used).

Which is why hackintoshes used to require crazy workarounds to get this working, even with Apple's own software, if I remember correctly (never tried myself, could be wrong).

How did they get around this? (did they?)

Replacing the battery in your light switch is something you do maybe once every 3 years.

And you can still use your phone as a backup remote.

That's a situation for a government program, not insurance. Insurance is for situations where it's unlikely that you'll need a payout.

Of course people today have to deal with the systems we have, but I'm talking about your hypothetical "future" scenario.
