Oh, there'll be photos of themselves, all posed in the same way and always with the same smiles, straight off the factory line. I let people enjoy what they want, I swear, but rote instagram portraits are as bland as wet newspaper.

There are compact designs that I find reasonable, though I'm sure not everyone will agree, which is fine! I'm using a Leopold fc-980m right now. It and it's variants are my favorite layout that I've used so far. But I do

Ah, the usual flip replies of how you can expect nothing from open source. Software projects, naturally, wanting for neither goodwill nor users.

I'd really, genuinely be interested in reading more about this theory, and what your criticisms of kotlin are. No, really, I'm interested!

These are all fair points for Java on the JVM or Android, but Kotlin Multiplatform does things that are well beyond the purview of the JCP. It has downsides to be sure but it's not as simple as evaluating it as just another option for

There have been lots of double blinds over the years. So far as I know, the only people that reliably score above chance are those with defective hearing such that they hear mostly frequencies that lossy codecs aren't tuned for. Lots o

Startling number of people who either don't know how to or reject on principle actually cooking food (as opposed to merely reheating it) in their microwave, too. And a few classist remarks and at least one usage of "white trash&qu

Emergencies happen. Were inappropriate or flawed repairs ever a significant problem? Are there other solutions to that problem? Could there exist a third-party repair service or parts manufacturer competent enough to be authorized? Even bes

> forcing me to use an MFI chip to get access to the microphone port. How does this work? We are talking about the now-deceased analogue minijack, right?

I'm completely of the mind that it should be banned. With recent (though deeply flawed) efforts toward transparency in pricing, we might even see it some day!

Truly, they could put up any roadblock---a time delay, requiring a phone call, MFA up one side and down the other---and it would be a much better look for them. I don't buy the anti-theft angle that can only be solved by buying a brand

See, that requires some argument of who it's for. Legally, copyright is established the moment something is created. (Hope you have proof.) I don't think you'd be able to claim _damages_ by sneaking your copyrighted code into

Ethically, I'm not sure how to slice it. I'm operating on what you wrote here rather than this specific story. Some contracts stipulate that anything you write while employed is owned by your employer. (I'm settled in that th

These are companies that dominate markets like pet food, infant formula, and personal hygiene products. (Did you forget that you can't make laundry detergent or toothpaste from whole foods?) They are hard to avoid. And anyway, remarks

Up to that point, their marketing had long been derisive of Intel parts and overstating the supremacy of PowerPC. (Supercomputers, anyone?) It's marketing, that's what it does, but an about-face like that is eyebrow-raising.

There do seem to be "churners" out there subscribing to services only for as long as they need to watch the show they want to see, and I'd guess a wide middle of customers who are at least prepared to cancel if they feel that

But it does do some good? You can use any power adapter and cable that are up to the task of charging a laptop. And some devices do get it right anyway, all the ports can be used for charging. And they can all be used to charge something el

Unfortunately I suspect they will just keep trying it out over and over until the public gets too exhausted to rally against it anymore.

The curried example actually could only ever add one to the call stack, no matter how many times you do it. And another thing, currying is one way of decomposing functions. Either your first example is decomposed too much or your second too

In the era you mentioned, most new PCs came bundled with Microsoft Works. A basic word processor feels like a sensible inclusion in any OS that is useful to consumers out of the box, it was Works that was more problematic for the competitio

I'm not sure why historical relevance is being talked about. Rail in the US failed to keep pace and has become largely irrelevant despite appearing that it could stand to benefit even more from modernized passenger rail because of ofte

If and when everyone is running AI workloads, then all of the competition will need to have proper support for it. Or at least we hope Nvidia wouldn't be left as the only vendor of modern GPUs in that case. That would be very unfortuna
