  • If they were required to leave all meta platforms, then what would the experiment show? It sounds like the intention was to see where people shifted their time when they stopped using one meta product. If FB users primarily went to IG and vice versa, then it would indicate they held a monopoly. But it sounds like IG users primarily switched to TikTok and YouTube, not FB, indicating they are different products from each other and have different competition.












  • Steam hardware has so far been pretty niche, though. If the user experience is smooth enough, a SM could replace many people’s xbox/playstation.

    We’re like 5y into the PS5/XBSX, new games are jumping up to $70-100 each, and hardly any are platform exclusives. Msft have all but canceled the next Xbox, and if Sony tries to push the PS6 in a few years, I think there’s a world where a good chunk of people say nah.

    And with the amount of attention Linux is getting from the win10 eol, we could be at the beginning of an historic inflection point in gaming.



  • “Developmental Disorder” refers to a child’s development after birth, not before. ASD is a developmental disorder yes, but afaik there’s no evidence it is caused by a prenatal issue, ex. the brain not “forming normally”.

    Neurotypically, there is no “normal”, there’s only “does it cause issues”. My understanding is that, so far, it just seems like some human brains have ASD, and the spectrum is a measure of how much it causes them issues (more specifically, is a measure of how much assistance they need to function). But there’s nothing “abnormal” about having ASD any more than it’s “abnormal” to be born tone deaf.
