Same. My work phone allows a very, very narrow set of applications to be installed from a pre-approved list. Social media is absolutely not on there.

This is something I would be very interested in reading in more detail, with examples from multiple specs pointing out pitfalls or successes. Dammit I'm supposed to be working not diving down a rabbit hole.

Sure, I could have been clearer but in my example "you" meant the entity acquiring ownership of the business. Not the reader or a specific person.

While I'm not terribly familiar with the subject myself: Note that figure 2 in TFA calls out Astrid's character model as consisting of "1.67GB of geometry and 11.1GB of textures". That's stupidly massive compared to

That was a very, very high window.

You want to buy Bob's Delicatessen, a business which makes a tidy profit with their storefront schlepping sandwiches to the local cube farm dwellers. Bob's Deli has a number of on-going costs, like the lease for their storefront,

That's a pretty easy 80/20 style solution, sure. That 20% there is the little fact that all the fences and signs in the world don't keep a certain subset of headstrong people from e.g. leaving the path and falling into geyser

As rascul said there are environmental concerns. There can also be access/ADA issues, like path width or slope/rise:run. Or it may simply be budgetary.

I used to make a bunch of PB&Js on Sunday, and take 2-3 with me for lunch every day. Later in the week they'd achieve this perfect ratio of jelly having soaked into the (toasted) bread. It was great. Yes, working long hours in cons

I call these "car cheat codes". Even modern vehicles often have some of these, hiding options (like turning off the "BUCKLE YOUR SEATBELT!!!" alarm) that the manufacturer may not want readily available. They can be kind

Seems like the kind of thing that needs to get handed off to the researchers who figured out how to hack into Jeeps OTA or the like.

I've conditioned my parents to doubt every form of communication that comes to them, whether its a phone call, mailed invoice, or emailed. They'll take a picture and ask me before doing anything about it. Hopefully this practice c

Fortunately its a work phone. That'll be IT's problem, not mine!

I think of it more like the protagonist (or antagonist, one could argue) of a movie holding on to the hand of someone (employee) about to fall off of a cliff (the descent, ultimately, to poverty and homelessness) just to make the metaphor a

I've long been bugged by the lazy approach to plurals/multiples in e.g. game tooltips. "You loot 861 gold(s)" I wonder if we'll ever see improvements on either front.

Presumably the congestion added by a bunch of 250' long trailer centipedes on the road would drive commuter traffic into Musk's surely-by-then existent hyperloop?

I'd rather hear beeping than have more people end up flat.

Worse as far as the outcome for the Pension, yes. But its a concept otherwise known as Risk.

Oof, heavy hit for people relying on those paychecks being timely. Decent of Rippling to cover overdraft fees of those affected, at least.

To me its "that chair creak" that often gets used for people siting down or getting out of chairs, also makes an appearance as the creak of a rusty gate hinge but to me it stands out as part of the soundbyte for exiting the Comman

Netflix's problem is more that the intriguing series never get a chance to go on too long and get axed after one or two seasons. Longer running shows, like Stranger Things, are the outlier.

I think of countries in SEA and the profusion of mopeds, motorbikes, rickshaws, and really all manner of small vehicles on the roads. Its a matter of time until attractive, affordable, legal vehicles make more inroads here in the States.

The key word there is "unauthorized". If they went through some official process with an erosion abatement/remediation plan and got the right review and approvals, they wouldn't then be forced to clear the rocks away.
