Several years ago, I stopped buying new iPads because Apple still hadn’t made it a multiuser device with user switching and profiles. That feature was introduced for the education market, but it seemed to rely too much on iCloud for user da

PSA: Note that AgileBits intentionally hides the standalone license option and pushes subscription as the only visible scheme to get the application. This is a long standing dark pattern, and though the support staff will admit on their for

Not GP, but the answer is no if you pay the balance in full every month. The issuer anyway makes money from the MDR (merchant discount rate) charged to the seller. But they would love customers who pay a partial balance regularly (at or a

Since this is about veterans, are there any orthogonal articles reporting on what the government is doing to prevent these suicides? Like avoiding sending people into wars (which, citing some examples here, create PTSD, a lot of sorrow on t

This is really very nice and useful! I read through the examples and thought about something that would be a good addition and then see that “-skip” was just implemented! I can skip (pun intended) using an additional layer of cut or awk bec

Could you please put up a post on the ChiselApp website about your motivations for running a free service, how you manage it, etc.? It’s always interesting to see these free services without a commercial angle, and makes me wonder why they’

It would’ve been more convenient to me if this project provided standalone downloads for macOS and Windows. The current downloads for the Desktop version are only available through the respective app stores on these two platforms.

Tangential comment: I’m on a phone and can’t look deeper into this site for sometime. I’m impressed with how fast the pages load from different links within this site. Anyone know or can describe the internals? Thank you, kind person.

Thanks for posting long chat with redactions. That iMessage thread you posted is quite frustrating to read through. I can only empathize you for going through that horrifying experience. Hope you find a resolution soon.

My opinion is to wait for the next iteration which is expected to be released in a few months. Those will have additional ports (almost confirmed) and hopefully a webcam that doesn’t suck and isn’t stuck in the distant past (not yet known i

Sorry to be a bit harsh, but the first example looks like what a screen reader would read out aloud on a poorly designed site. The repetitive “markup” words seem noisy and are quite distracting. Maybe you could consider more symbolic choice

This looks nice, but $10 a month is a tough sell for me (I use only two of the supported platforms everyday, with about 20 messages total in a day, on average). Also, why does the site ask for an email address to get started? An explanation

I agree on threatening (which is usually about violence), but I reserve the right to berate and shame them if they’re privileged enough to be having a cushy position and great pay (and not some janitor or security guard from an outsourcing

I have the exact same issue. If it’s video, my eyes (and brain) are occupied and not easily distracted. But audio alone, unless it’s like radio where you don’t care if you miss something, has been difficult to keep attention on. Unlike eBoo

Thanks. GP here. I'm past the edit window of my original comment. I do know what wireframes are, and have created them myself to provide to developers. I just didn't get what static cards like these were useful for. There seem to

Since I’m not a UI designer, I’m a bit lost. I’d appreciate it if someone could explain more since the website doesn’t. Why would one use this at all? And how would one create web pages conforming to the cards?
