Doesn't the money has to go back into the "real" economy at some point, i.e. fill a need besides having a bigger number in the bank account/Forbes list? Or are the recipients of all this wealth already so rich they don&#

Do you think it can be done? I mean realistically, not theoretically? I see this as far too demanding for everyone, and far too short for viable alternatives to come up to be a realistic target. On the other hand, this year has shown that p

I don't think it's an issue on iOS, Apple is able and willing to update old devices if needs be. My 5S still receives the odd security update in iOS 12 from time to time (basically when something really big comes up). If it would

I assume this is something which is going to be very region/industry dependant. I have done the exact same thing multiple times, never had an answer. When they answer "no, we want you to give a number first", I'm at lo

There's a lot to be said about France and other European powers treatment of their colonial troops, but North Africa certainly wasn't the main provider of soldiers. From Wikipedia: "At the end of the war on November 11, 1918,

Is jaywalking illegal all the time? Here it's only illegal if there's a crossing less than 50 m away.

Because we have had millennia to observe the effects of physical attacks, but the other 2 are much more recent? We haven't yet learnt the hard way.

I have a hard finding new fantasy books these days, because the synopsis are so boring. It usually goes "Yada yada presentation but bigger picture (usually about how the fate of the world is at stake and only the hero can save it)&quot

Companies have other concerns than the immediate revenues though. Consumers are very sensitive to price fluctuations, it might makes sense short term to raise the price when demand outstrips supply, but consumers will remember the companies

But the bootloader is already open as far as I know, the real issue is drivers. You probably can't force them to write the drivers for other OS, but you could presumably force them to document the hardware.

Convenience? There's the Channel to cross so you have to go through Paris and Dover. A <1h flight becomes a 7+h train ride.

Rail infrastructures are massively subsidised though. Apparently subsidies for rail in Germany were €17B in 2014.

by Leherenn 6y ago
That's a general issue with trains, the infrastructure costs are massive and don't scale very well compared to planes.

We used to do it at my previous company, maybe 30-40 engineers, but only 10%. It didn't really work, in the sense that no project went anywhere. Based on the feedback here, it seems to work if you can contribute to external projects,

I'm not sure that's particularly great for confidence. It will feel like a test, and they will feel dreadful if they don't find it. The whole process will be very stressful.

Windows on ARM is just not particularly compelling. You have a lot more to lose compatibility wise, and likely less performance to gain given that Apple has the better chip and control over both the hardware and software.

I think the 35% on top is the expected improvements of the 888 compared to the 865. On Geekbench, the top 865 is at 887 for single thread compared to 1585 for the A12. If we add 35% to the 865, the expected 888 score is ~1200, still quite b

What makes it less of an issue for black hats? Do they have access to symbols/source code that security researchers do not/are not willing to use? I certainly understand the frustration for legitimate researchers, and there's

by Leherenn 6y ago
Well your anecdote doesn't seem to support your argument. Google is the one paying all those researchers at Project Zero, Apple doesn't seem to have that kind of security group, and yet you still buy/recommend Apple instead o

But doesn't it work in some ways? It's not going to save them, but it seems to significantly increase the time/cost of exploiting the vulnerability. One more layer to the security system.

Several Swiss cantons have minimum wage (Geneva starting from this month for instance). Also collective bargaining is pretty common as well (e,g, in the watch industry).

Is Austrian like Swiss German where "gg" is "k"? If so the pronunciation might have not/barely changed for locals, but is no longer funny for English speakers.

On the face of it, it seems like a market ripe for disruption. Is it that hard to make a decent guitar, or is branding so import to customers that a new brand with a decent product at a cheaper price has basically no chance?

I have to admit I don't understand this, all those numbers are completely arbitrary and seem to be based on what you think is right and not on any economic data. It seems to me the real question is whether the Apple App Store should be

It's especially surprising given Dijkstra wasn't a native English speaker.
