It was at first. Until it became obvious that it was useless like that. You had the OS down-clocking cores to avoid CPUs cooking themselves, causing time to increase an inconsistent rates. Your app queried the clock rate, but unless it ke

Yeah, we switched our phones to Apple after my wife's 9 month old Galaxy stopped being usable for her main purpose... Google Calendar. Visiting Google Calendar website, it refused to load and said to use the app. App refused to load

I don't use an ad blocker, not because I'm not aware of them, but in order to support the creators of content I view via ad revenue, and to avoid installing a potential MITM vector directly into my browser. If there's a site

When a researcher notices they can show source, or tweak an id in a URL and see data they shouldn't, and report it, they're threatened with jail time. How come Meta can secretly scrape my web session, steal information, and that&#

Yeah, at work we switched phone systems a few years back to some Avaya phones. The new ones had a small screen on them. After 15-30 minute idle, they'd display the a logo that would jump to a new location every minute or two. It was

I type gcc to compile things all the time. Apple helpfully made an alias. I know some people will be mad that "it's not the tool I asked for", but personally I'd rather it works for the 99% of cases where it doesn&#x27

Ah. In that case, I'm not sure what the difference is. Both Rosetta 2, and WoW are translating blocks of code to native, not doing a CPU emulation... I'm wondering if Apple actually has some sort of license to do the translation

Yeah. I'm thinking the shared password falls into the category of being able to share a copy of a magazine in your office, either directly, handing someone an article to read, or indirectly, by putting the magazine in a communal table

Ironically, perhaps they were trying not to scrape the AI answers, avoiding violating its copyright. If only the AIs were so thoughtful. Or, perhaps there was a more long-term intent. Knowing AIs hallucinate, not copy/pasting their a

Don't reject the not real engineering folk. I'm fairly certain the only reason companies are so eager to label all software developers as engineers is because there are often loopholes in overtime laws specifically for engineers,

When you've driven away your reader base, any profit you made while doing so will seem minor, compared to total revenues from keeping those readers happy and around for years to come. Of course you can also view it as a major source of

You don't need everyone to agree on an interface if you approach things slightly differently. Like Unix shell scripts and pipes, each program can have its own particular inputs and outputs, as long as they're useful and documente

Last time I tried to use the built-in zip extraction was in XP, perhaps Win7. It was awful. It was slow. Unzipping archived source with thousands of files could take an hour or more... or 15 seconds via pkunzip. It didn't warn of cor

Haven't bothered with PSVR2 either, and have not updated the original PSVR app to the point where it no longer functions. Netflix is clearly saying "We don't want to be a 3D/VR movie service". Perhaps Apple will pa
