To be fair the standard of coffee in New Zealand and Australia is substantially better than North America and much of Europe. I could only find on-par coffee in specialty cafes in Portland, Vancouver and San Fran on the west coast. You were

But Kik Interactive wouldn't have taken them to court over this. It's a 100-person company. No one has the time, or the motivation to go on a tangent like that. Especially since they'll be paying hundreds or low-thousands in

I think Azer should have just said no, waited for npm to force the rename/removal and then pulled all of the repo's. To me, this thread reeks of corporate damage control. Also it should be stated that mproberts spent the last 6 ye

I'm legitimately looking forward to a "bird cam". If I can run it locally, I'm setting it up for Ultra-High with HighDef textures and leaving it streaming in the office. I love the GTA V cityscape.

It seems they're disabling network/official support for older firmware. The latest "required" version is 8 month ago which included some base Kindle feature upgrades, they're likely running two systems side-by-side

Usability. I don't think Hexchat is "good enough". Slack is vastly superior from a usability perspective in my opinion. I don't have to use commands for the most part, I can customize my interface as much as I "need

"companies", not services. Aside from tech companies, IRC was never adopted by wider industries. We've been using it amongst a primarily operations-based company which relied on Email and Lync previously.

I agree it's "Slacky", but the interface itself is very much traditional IRC.

What can we expect to see from Apple? Would they comply, if not what consequences would we see them face? Fines or jail-time for those making the decision to not comply?

This is whack-a-mole with VPN's. We'll start to see VPN companies setup auto-rotating IPv6-only networks registered to residential addresses and pseudonyms shortly (if they haven't already) with 2-3 customers per/IP. VPN

If law was adopted to require backdoors - those who are privacy conscious would simply move their data to countries that allow for strong encryption as well as deniability. It'd still pose an issue for when people are accessing their d

The app made it onto the OSX App Store and the author's certs were revoked. This isn't a case of verify source, verify application. This is a case of anything can be infected and it's damn near impossible to check everything.

I can only hope the integrated version is >= ScreenHero.

I found the usability of Hipchat pretty subpar vs Slack as well. Things like editing or deleting messages, extensibility with integration, alerts and syncing across devices.. Snippets!? Come on! These should be basic, foundation features. O

This is my biggest gripe when it comes to implementing self-driving vehicles. Once it gets to the 80%ish range and a lot of people can spot an self-driving car from a pedestrian-driving car, I just know there'll be so many people that

This has been in the pipeline since they bought Screenhero. I think they're just fully integrating it now.

The ELK stack is also good but will require some config - you'll need to pay for a subscription for alerts however there are free alternatives like Yelp's ElastAlert on Github.

Talia's article enrages me. I've been off worse than her (similar ages, lower pay, higher portion of income to living costs and MUCH longer hours), but the way she's gone about it screams of oh-poor-me. The fact of the matter

We should really compare "like with like". Yes, you're adding perspective to the argument. Perspective though fair, does not add value to the argument. It simply dismisses it altogether. Example: John works a median job, earn

I agree this is scaremongering at Uber's expense. I'd like them to be transparent about their interview/hire/employ process. I understand they do a criminal "background check" and they have a formal interview,

I upgrade every 2 years. It costs me about $1-2K for the "next" model's difference (after selling the old one on Craiglist/Ebay), however averaging the usage out over those 2 years I'm still getting really good bang

Agreed. I don't think Apple creates their applications for power users though. We switch to VLC because we handle a wide range of file formats, QuickTime is "good enough" for the average user (perhaps not anymore considering
