Yes lol I remember hearing that line over and over again. That's why I give a little credence to Apple's track record.

I’m not talking about Steve’s big reveal. It was leaked long before that and everyone said it was dumbest thing, just like what we’re seeing with the headset now.

I remember when the iPad was announced, and everyone was laughing at the product name, comparing it to a feminine product. There were so many naysayers claiming there would be no real use for it, because people had smartphones and laptops, so something in between wasn't necessary and would fail. Now look at their sales. I'm not saying their headset is the next revolutionary thing, but I wouldn't automatically bet against Apple either - they have time and time again innovated and invented a need that didn't exist before.

I’m stunned they need more than 20 employees for what the site is.

It’s crazy. Especially this site, it’s a simple database of job postings. There are definitely people there who don’t do anything all day

You're assuming age is the issue here, when the real issue is these lawmakers are mostly bought by corporations and are lax on issues that don't benefit their portfolio or get them re-elected. This goes for the young and old politicians alike. I know many older people who keep up with technology or are at least curious to learn.
Edit: Also because this deepfake porn issue affects so few people, it's never going to be moved from the backburner. Creating laws around it won't even create a ripple in the election cycle. This is the real issue: the only job of a politician is to get re-elected. The creation of a new law (even computer related) is not determined by the age of the politician, but the likelihood of it getting said politician elected again, or like I mentioned, getting some sort of financial compensation.

That's quite a blanket statement. It's funny how reddit is so hypersensitive to anything that could be remotely interpreted as racist, sexist, homophobic etc yet ageism is so widely accepted and even encouraged.

Even if that puddle was somehow a drainage canal, there's nothing in it, so no you don't see that.
