There are mitigations though. Assuming you have sensors in every segment, you could detect the vacuum ahead deteriorating and brake. Equally, if the train stopped in an emergency, the valves around it could fail safe to open and let the atm

You can do all of that with a properly tailored suit. If it’s expensive you probably don’t want to roll around in the dust, but if you look at images of workers from hundreds of years ago they were essentially wearing suits (trousers, shirt

Same! Tech job, my co-founder and I are only a 5 minute drive or bike ride from the office. It’s nice to get dressed and have that separation from home. I feel like the commute is what people are actually feeling the worst, because it’s unp

I'm not close to these deals, but my understanding is you have to have some existing connection to the CEO or at least very senior VP's for it to be an actual reality. So I wouldn't feel too bad!

That's new. Previously there was a setting, but they removed it, and it would even throw a warning in settings.json that the property no longer existed. They must have reintroduced the telemetry setting. I can't remember if I dele

Yep I did see some kind of top level graph, with a few items in it (maybe 5?), but that wasn't very useful. It was also quite small as it was in the left panel of vscode, so nothing of value at that point. This was with a pretty vanill

Is pretty great if these features are constrained to a utility function or library though. Being able to put your types in as an arg and keep the other parts in sync in the editor without having to write a bunch of boilerplate just to defin

Requiring Chrome and the search widget to be uninstallable on Android in exchange for access to the GMail app is definitely a step too far, straight out of Microsoft's playbook. At least Android allows sideloading apps though. We know

Olympics is boring, it should become the World's Fair once again. More break dancing, more Starcraft II, launch a starship at the height of it all.

When you use Apple Pay, Apple has agreements with the issuing banks for those cards and they get a % of every transaction you make. Having to give up monopoly control over NFC API means the banking apps will probably offer tap to pay direct

Worse how? It just means devs can access the API, if the customer installs their app and consents that that's what they want to happen. Apple still gets to be the default wallet, which is a huge, huge advantage, plus they make a boatlo

I think you're onto something. I'm not sure what you mean by 'components' on the roadmap, but if it's the ability to bring react components back into the editor, and have the designer WYSIWYG modify the props - that

I would honestly love this, so that users don't even have to think about AI. - Massively broaden the input for forms because the AI can accept or validate inputs better - Prefill forms from other known data, at the application level -

It depends how you define the market. If there is one market for phone hardware, and a separate market for app stores, then they’re illegally bundling them and using their position in the phone market to anti-competitively win in the app st

How does Tesla FSD fair against the Waymo self driving taxis? I'm curious about whether self driving is still an impossible task right now, or if it's just a matter of quality between companies - in which case it's possibly a

Ok I'm calling it. If NVIDIA releases a phone, and allows you to buy the hardware for the off-device processing too, I'll fully ditch Apple in a heartbeat. I'm quite creeped out that it uses off-device processing for a person

For this reason, I really hope we can self-host our "private cloud" for use with apple devices. That would truly, properly allow end to end privacy. I don't trust Apple given the legislation you've just linked to, both c
