Why the downvote? Is it such heresy to say that many users care more about performance than security? I’m not suggesting that security is unimportant, just that it’s not very compelling if it’s at the expense of performance. For example see

Anyone notice any major downsides, regressions, feature removals? The original app was powerful but quite complicated to use, I imagine Apple dumbed it down a bit for widespread adoption.

Maybe in theory security updates are worth it, but in practice if an update slows down my day-to-day usage that’s a bigger deal than some theoretical security vulnerabilities which I’ve never actually experienced on any iPhone. Especially i

I’ve been running the beta on my SE and my main complaint is much of the UI seems optimized for the newer, larger screens. So expect additional scrolling, etc (even with the os text size set to minimum). Feels kinda like how Gmail/Goog

So they have an actual class dedicated to teaching you about this, and that class fails to enumerate all of your options? That seems like a sub-optimal situation. Sounds like my sex-ed class in Georgia which never even discussed birth contr

I don't see pricing or a download/demo link on your website. "Please contact us for a facial recognition demo or to discuss your requirements for a facial recognition technology solution." My assumption from that is the

This was true when I lived in Georgia, but in San Francisco the farmer's markets are easily double the price of grocery stores like Safeway and Costco.

It’s a 10 inch screen, what kind of resolution do you really need? I’d prefer a lower dpi to save battery life. I just got a new ThinkPad laptop with a 13 inch screen at 1080p, which is perfect. Enough screen resolution to do my work comfor

Windows has been attempting to get this working well for years, and for the most part it was horrible. But over the last year or so I've found arbitrary DPI scaling on Windows has worked very well, at least meeting my expectations and

That’s fair, I’m probably being too harsh on it. It was my first job out of college so my first time interacting with professional-scale source control. I don’t remember specifically what I didn’t like about it, I think mostly that it was s

Yes, I used that internal Source Depot (based on Perforce I think, or at least something old and convoluted) when I worked on Windows Phone 7 back in 2010, it was not fun. There were a few teams within Microsoft at the time using the visual

I agree in theory, but have you ever actually tried to use Azure? The management interface is ridiculously overcomplicated. It feels very “Microsofty”

I keep hearing this about Chinese companies but I've never actually met someone who has done this or have any concrete example beyond "oh I've heard that people do that", and I've talked to a lot of white expats in

Of course that’s a problem with all of Google, not just VR. The last major top-down strategic direction they had was social, and that didn’t go very well.

Interesting concept. It might be good to have some info on how this works in different countries, especially countries where people tend to have medical expenses covered without buying private insurance. What am I actually getting in a sp

Well it's also my first foray into Android development since Google Glass years ago, so not much good source to share. Maybe someday if I get it in a state where it works and isn't too embarrassing, I may open source it. Regardle

But Cellebrite apparently makes millions off of its service, so the economic incentives are still on their side.

I’m not entirely sure, maybe I will do that someday, but I’m certainly not comfortable with the idea. And I find it interesting how normal that is and how people don’t seem to think it’s a big deal.

It's been a while since my last discreet math class so take this with a grain of salt, but in a combination you only care about selecting the correct members of a set, so order does not mater. In a permutation problem you care about s

by OkGoDoIt 9y ago
In theory kerning differences would make letter ordering significant, so this becomes a permutation problem not a combination problem, and therefore much harder to brute force.

Every job I've had in recent years has required I use an overcomplicated toolchain involving React or Angular. For personal projects I avoid them like the plague but unfortunately I don't have that luxury when working on a team a

Likewise in San Francisco. I like to take very long all-day or late night walks and bathrooms are very hard to come by. Sure as long as it’s daytime and I look presentable I can usually find a cafe/store that will let me use the bathro

I mainly used it for brainstorming projects with remote friends. It was great for that! But I never figured out any other practical use. And Google docs or Microsoft onenote solve this almost as well nowadays, or at least well enough that I

Yes, Google would love for you to mark up your data so that they can better consume it. But good luck trying to get Google to make any of their data more interoperable. Google Plus, YouTube, Google Photos... they do have somewhat limited AP
