My wife and I have Google maps location sharing turned on all the time. It's not stepping because we agreed to it. Last night I got home from a motorcycle ride and the garage door opened as I pulled up because my wife knew I was coming

I thought vs code ran natively as a Windows app and just used a remote connection to wsl to do file management and run cli commands ? I don't think vs code is running inside the wsl environment directly.

"better"? Every tool has pros and cons and tradeoffs. I run Linux, Windows, and MacOS. Each one has it's pros and cons. Each is the "better" tool depending on the need. The same goes for programming languages and en

Is it common for jobs to restrict your choice in development environment? In 15 years I've never been required to use any particular operating system.

I agree. It's not wise to encode business rules into the database. However, there are certain kinds of constraints that are still valid, specifically if they are data structure constraints (like a value must be >= 0).

For some reason these days I just expect "support" for large tech companies to mean a page of FAQs or maybe a chatbot. Maybe it's just all the bad press about bad support experiences.

I'm curious about iPhones but not enough to actually switch. Android phones suck in two areas: performance and upgrades. The fastest Android SoC is as fast as the A12, a three year old chip. Android phones are lucky to get 1 major vers

From other comments it sounds like a free developer account expires builds after a few days. Otherwise you have to pay $100/yr for the privilege. That's a lot of money to run an open source emulator.

In what way are they different? Hardware wise, the iPhone has a touchscreen and a cellular radio, some additional sensors and no keyboard. At the center of each is a CPU, GPU, and storage. Software is the primary differentiator.

Side loading doesn't magically give apps access to APIs that don't exist. The operating system controls privacy, not the app store.

Can't Apple close a developer account if it's never used to submit an app to the app store?

The Amazon pre-screener questions are not FizzBuzz. They are more complicated algorithms with a 45 minute time limit.

I got thrown into an existing application. The best way to learn React was really just to work inside an existing code base so you can see existing patterns.

As a software engineer, one the reasons I like to write tests is because it forces me to think about everything that could go wrong. Once I write tests for all the things that could go wrong and verify the correct behavior, I feel a lot bet

I was forced into frontend development a few years due to a priority shift at my company (I was a backend dev) and these tools were extremely helpful. I highly recommend them to anyone getting into frontend development.

If that's the case, why do they continue to reject candidates based on their automated algorithm test as the first step in the interview? If they had too many candidates and not enough positions, it makes sense, but in the opposite sce

That just shows that Apple doesn't have to have a monopoly to compete. They can offer better features, services, etc that people may be willing to pay more for. Not everyone pays for the extended warranty when they buy electronics&#x2F

The point is well taken, but a lot of people on r/halo do complain about the vehicle physics, so I think there is still room for improvement even if the goal isn't mathematically precise physics.
