Now that's how you write a title.

Thanks. But expecting end users to go online and perform a search to find out where the filters are stored on their platform (or platforms, if the source and destination are different) and copy them is pretty inexcusable at this point. I do

Is there still no way to export and import your filters in Thunderbird? This is why I shunned it 20 years ago. The absurd idea that you're going to manually run around to all your computers all the time and manually set up (and maintai

I think you nailed it. You can't even buy this bike bell, as far as I can see.

I don't see why this would become an "arms race." There's no particular competitive value in filtering out this ONE sound.

No, Google, I do NOT mean "skoda doorbell." Morons. Meanwhile... you apparently can't buy this thing anywhere.

Yeah, it was pretty good, even without the "tight integration." The most important integration I can think of is answering texts on my computer. This is a huge win. And it does suck that Android still lacks a central syncing facil

iOS is a POS too, now.

It's not even an edge case. It should have been considered an inevitable case. Really depressing design dereliction and/or incompetence.

Are pixels really the best way to encode position at this point?

Good observations. The question is what's going on with the mass "re-mastering" of entire back catalogs. I very much doubt that labels are going back to source material and crafting a judicious result. Aren't they, in mo

Depends on what you mean by "published." If I'm shopping a script around, it's copyrighted when I'm done writing it. People may start seeing it right way, but it could take years to find a home and then get made.

That does seem cool. So there are sufficient functions to iterate through collections that might be stored in a single row of a JSON column?

"As part of a settlement... will be prohibited from misrepresenting its privacy policies." Did I miss it, or were there no other parts to this settlement mentioned? In other words: no punishment at all.

Sure, compressing individual elements judiciously is a valid and even necessary choice. But the so-called "remastering" that has ruined our whole pop/rock heritage as represented today on streaming services is a heinous, lazy

From my observations and from industry people I've read opinions from, the early '90s were the peak for mastering quality. Digital was well-understood, but wasn't being abused. Listen to the original pressings of songs like &

Disagree on the decade. There are plenty of examples of great movies or other works that took longer than a decade to bring to the public. Those projects would have been completely non-viable if their content could have been stolen after cr

Whatever that means.

The high-frequency "swishiness" the usual giveaway. But sadly today most popular music is ruined beyond repair with dynamic compression, not data compression. The craven stupidity of the loudness war may be unequaled in the histor

Alt-Tab does two things that Apple messed up: 1. Restores minimized apps when you tab to them (Apple leaves them minimized, defeating the whole purpose of the hotkey) 2. Creates a new window if the app you're tabbing to lacks one (prim

Hey, at least we're finally spared the infantile "MY this" and "MY that" nonsense that dominated the early 2000s.

A couple iOS versions ago, Apple broke self-signed certificates... crippling mobile development by preventing the use of HTTPS to communicate with a local server. It makes you wonder why they were messing around in these areas at all at thi

It's just a bunch of text and maybe some horizontal lines. It manages to take "flat" design and make it even worse. The list of regressions is seemingly endless. Where are the menus? Oh... scattered all over each application&

I figured it was a typical no-info HN title; I was happy to discover it actually conveyed some meaning.
