It probably lasted long enough to get a replacement fan installed the next morning.

I think this is a great idea. In fact, I would like to see Google partner with things like Craigslist or FB Marketplace to list items from anyone and then use USPS to ship them. It would be like the worlds largest yard sale. 1. Dig

I think it can be for both giving less data to Google and to get you to re-engage at Amazon.

In the past, S3 buckets were created with much less sane defaults and you didn't have the ability to unilaterally forbid any public access that you do today. Also, configuring Bucket Profiles is a confusing and hard to test situation.

I've done two Segway tours at Disney World and it was awesome. The first one was at Epcot with my son. We got into the part before it opened and we were the only ones on the tour so we got to see and do some things that bigger groups

I kinda agree with you on the "bubbly" look. However, I'm pretty excited about the Widgets stuff. I really like(d) the Widgets in OS X and even built one to show weather radar. Even though it's kinda silly and not sup

Yea, I wonder what the Mac Pro is going to look like in a couple of years. Then again, they could stuff it with 100 A19z processors and have a 1024 thread machine (or something equally outrageous).

Maybe it depends on the pricing for the x86 vs. ARM macs. If the ARM machines are significantly cheaper the x86 sales will probably suffer quite a bit. As someone else in this thread said, most people have no idea what processor is in the

I think that the current world situation is going to be a large boost for VR (Virtual Reality). Before the pandemic I was much more in favour of AR (Augmented Reality) as a form of entertainment. VR requires so much more precision to get

Would this verification feature be similar to how keybase works? You post a "fingerprint" message to a host of public web sites (ie. Twitter, Facebook, GitHub Gist, etc.) that anyone use to verify your identity. The idea is that

I'm guessing that shipping companies have some procedures in place today for dealing with packages with damaged labels. Even paper labels can be ripped, scarred, or otherwise damaged beyond a readable state.

I think you can add using the same 720p camera on the MacBook (Pro) line for the last n years. At the same time the iPhone's camera has seen dramatic updates almost continually. Heck, they could probably just replace the camera in an

This seems like the perfect place to use InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) ( https://ipfs.io/ ). You can store and distribute files (including videos) using IPFS without worrying that someone could remove them. The only thi

Unfortunately, it's my understanding that Speed Queen has also succumbed to the cost-cutting measures of plastic parts and things that can't be replaced / repaired easily.

This is interesting because they are using Java. The article mentions some sort of Java Image File but I have been out of the Java world for quite a while and don't know much about it. Does it have it's own JVM? Are you safe if

I was just wondering if GitHub Classroom could be used as an interview step. I've not looked at Classroom very closely but I have a couple of questions; how do you handle the interviewees? Do they have to create their own user or do

Is this similar to how the phone company operates? As long as they just transmit your voice to the other party they can't be prosecuted for anything you say. But, as soon as they start listening in and commenting on your words they h

I agree, but I thought it was just a factor of me getting older. 25 years ago we used to sit around at lunch and discuss the latest CPU technology and argue which one was better. Now it just doesn't matter (for the most part) apart f

I can't believe that no one has brought up a Lotus Notes comparison yet. The Notion sales pitch feels very similar to the Notes one; everything in one place. Notes itself was actually not that bad but it was very complex and usually t

It would be extra great if it had a battery charging outlet instead of a regular 120v AC outlet. I'm not sure how you would standardize a battery outlet but it has to be more efficient that going from DC->AC-DC.

This reminds me of an old attempt by Apple (and IBM?) to do the same thing, but I can't remember the name. Taligent?

You are correct. Several members of my family are teachers and they too get little respect, low pay, and some authority.
