Many, many people have been calling for MS to clean up their store since it was launched. It has been full of crapware for its entire existence; most devs have only used it to install WSL.

That's a completely different sentence? This is like arguing that passive voice is always correct and one should never use active voice under any circumstance.

Whelp, that's enough for us to discontinue Retool usage org-wide. Thanks for the write-up, Marak. We've been using Faker for years (?) and will look into supporting you via GitHub ASAP.

I go to a restaurant for food and drinks, not silverware. I'm not smart enough to make an argument about food pricing but some restaurants let you bring your own bottle of wine as long as you pay a 'corkage fee'

Fascinating that the research was judged not to involve human subjects.... As someone not part of academia, how could this research be judged to not involve people? It _seems_ obvious to me that the entire premise is based around tricking&#

You better hope that the judge handling your case doesn't stumble upon this comment thread. Your lack of Mens Rea isn't going to fly if you're caught meta-discussing the whole thing. Also, manslaughter?

OVH wiped my server a couple weeks ago for non-payment while I was in the middle of a support ticket to sort out a billing issue with my invoice. Was asked for more information from a support rep. Server was auto-wiped less than an hour lat

Not that my company will produce anything as controversial as Parler but I now use this example to explain why we go the extra mile with things (e.g. scrubbing headers). Sometimes the worst-case scenario really does come true.

Seems to me that proper DPI detection might lead to a better experience across all "unique" monitor setups, not just this one. Is it extra work? Sure. I thought we referred to that as polish.

This was debunked pretty quickly -- it's not at all what happened.

Should have clarified: Apple Inc sells me on a closed up device, which is fine. Some Apple loyalists explain to me that I don't know what I want and that Apple Inc's ideology is the one true way. Personally I have both an iPhone a

Exactly this :) I should have used a word that carried less weight than "narcissist". Parent comment seemed like an obvious joke but it sucked most of the oxygen out of the thread.

Wasn't my take -- just found it odd how many people wrote back as if they'd been personally attacked by the parent comment.

Incredible -- "Our digital usher is finding you a seat in the cloud" slapped on a screen might just save us months of planning and millions on infrastructure.

pro-tip: loop your legs and arms through the handles or straps of the bags you're traveling with to prevent people from stealing them while you sleep e.g. put your backpack on your lap against your chest and cross your arms through the

It's convenient that Digital Ocean has a scapegoat for 2020 but his video doesn't explain the previous years of spammy pull requests.

I know few people that use "realtime" to mean it in the "realtime OS" sense. It's usually used in layman's terms to mean "happening live". RxDB isn't being misleading, it's another valid usa
