Polaris is 45-67 million years old.

The oldest total-group chondrichthyans, known as acanthodians or "spiny sharks", appeared during the Early Silurian, around 439 million years ago.

It's not even close.

Boomer? This is an irrational joke.

When I worked at Amazon we had data for every little decision we made. Do you want to change the color of a button? Run an A/B test and see if it improves some metric.

Want to stop supporting a 5-year-old device? Go determine the total number of impacted people and figure out some way to compensate them.

Want to get promoted? Get 5 people you worked with to answer specific questions about your work over the last year.

Want to make an entire workforce return to an office after they kept your company afloat during a pandemic? Want to increase commute time? Want to increase cars on the road? Want to make new parents spend less time with their kids? No need for any data, some guy says he knows better.

I'll believe this in 7 years.

Then throws the notes away and calls everyone commies, guaranteeing their own low wages, long hours, and unsafe work conditions.

Is there anything to get here? I feel like either I'm missing something, or this comic is literally just about someone having a nap instead of playing a game.

Fine if that's the case, but I keep thinking there's some sort of joke I'm missing.

If you're on a work visa and you don't want to get deported then you do what daddy Elon tells you.

Yeah, creators, just build, host, and maintain your own streaming video service.

So, wading in here with a gut reaction and no nuance, he's charged with all these crimes because the platform he runs has them being organized between its users?

Who do we arrest if a crime is organized via phone call on T-Mobile's network, or via mail?

Is it a case of cooperation, where Telegram is completely refusing to help, or is it just a case of "encryption bad, privacy bad" from the French government?

The lack of upload date is the thing that already bugs me the most about YouTube Shorts. Well, maybe the second most after the entire concept.

They'll always win because they can just prevent you from flying.

I'm from the UK, my wife is from Singapore, and our son was born in the US. I really don't think it's appropriate to force him to pledge allegiance to the US, because he has strong ties to other countries. It feels like brainwashing.

I don't get what the point of the comic is. Am I supposed to know something before reading it?

I know it's sometimes informative, but I really hate the popularity of "$x quietly does $y" in headlines.

You want Google to run ads on TV or something? It's a tiny feature.

Jeez, we know, stop mansplaining mansplaining.

They used to have a nice obvious detail page for every app, now I get some small entry, a bunch of other apps that I might also want to install (spoiler, I don't), and it's harder to see useful information.

Do they really think I've gone to the Play Store to install my bank's app, but I might also want to install a different bank's app?

We really need a compelling alternative to the Play Store, both as users and developers.
