One problem is that your user agent is matched against all tested user agents from all times. This includes very old ones. If the user agent was used to track you online, they would account for that it frequently updates and for a lot of us

But real estate debt is only good if you can afford it and you buy smart. I know a lot of people who bought a house and sold it later for less even after all the payments because they bought it high and sold it low. Furthermore, if you pay

But does this also include negative wealth? Especially in the US, it seems to me that many people have a lot of debt – staring from credit card debt to a too expensive car lease (and a new one ever 3 years) to the house they have payments o

Apple probably planned that long before the announcement of Microsoft's acquisition was made because a lot of customers requested gitlab/bitbucket integration after they added the github integration. But they could only tell that

But how do you tell a spell script to be a multi staged build? You can't just write `set OS=macos` and suddenly your OS changes from debian to macos. The best you could do is to ssh into that machine but how do you tell your build syst

I believe that would put apple in an awkward position because they also offer an ad platform to developers. This would put them in a situation similar to adblock plus where they allow a few websites to use ads (mostly if they are paid money

Well, git status doesn’t show unpushed changes from other branches but when I deploy, I normally go into the deployment branch and run git status there. So the unpushed changes in other branches would be quite insignificant. But everyone’s

Thank you, I had somewhat around .2% in mind but I wasn’t too sure. Obviously that depends a lot. For a small business (a one or two person shop), those fees can be essentially 0 because they can just bring it to the bank themselves. I an a

We are not talking about crypto currencies. We are talking about visa and MasterCard which use a centralized network to process those payments. That is as cheap as it can get. The power requirements for crypto currencies are the main reason

I agree with your first three points but the last ones are not true. Case doesn’t have payments fees but it gets mishandled. You give away too much or a customer said I gave you 50, not 20, etc. Furthermore, unless you are a small business,

Im pretty sure Apple does the same for their device — they have to be activated by Apple after they have left the factory so that they can be used.

Why would you not want to take about that? Did the insurance company have a very bad reputation? Because I certainly would not be embarrassed to work for some insurance companies because they can be fair and quite reasonable (while others

Wow, the design is amazing -- I am really not good with design but it is very simple and extremely very clean. I might steal it at some point. I also really like the no javascript approach. You even have a RSS reader, which is really helpfu

Consumers demanded slimmer designs over glued in batteries, soldered RAM chips, etc. So the market responded by gluing in batteries and soldering ram. In a way, the consumers did demand that.

Do you have any source for that information? I am very interested in that as well but couldn't find any information regarding that so far. I have always thought (though without any source) that they re-flashed the iPhone by putting it

I think it is a reddit thing. I’m pretty sure I observed the same behavior when I used chrome (thought this was almost a year ago) and this still happens on my iPad using safari.

You can use old.reddit.com to load the old design or can also change it in your settings (if you are logged in). I have found their new design quite confusing so I reverted back to the old one for now. Tbh I sometimes wish there was a websi

Couldn’t this be seen as identify theft? It is like saying. I am John Doe from Bakers Street except that a complete DNA sample would be even more conclusive (I.e. impossible to accidentally to use to hide one’s identity).

It will probably be an SQL query and if software development has thought us anything is that testing is not enough. Proper testing can be very helpful and prevent many errors but it can never prevent all because you just cannot test for all
