More than a few developers have spoken up on the issue here on HN. The escape key is commonly used, as are many other function keys. Other vendors have rolled out similar gadgets to apple and they've been rejected by the development

I wouldn't consider ProtonMail a competitor of Google. I would assume they got penalized in search rankings like everyone else. The fact that they went through Matt Cutts to get this resolved is telling - since he's the public fa

Frankly I'm extraordinarily disappointed. I went to aliexpress.com and I don't see anything in their "Today's Deals" that looks anything like a deal. Add in the fact that I'd have to wait who knows how long f

AP and Reuters pay people to check the results locally. Between them, they feed a LOT of outlets. A significant amount of the data is available online pretty quickly, but some states and localities simply don't publish the data in a

For certain languages, the IDE of choice is great. For what seems like the majority of languages, it isn't. In the last week, I've edited javascript, html, python2, python3, sql, json, yaml, graphviz, markdown, and docker files.

I've heard of two or three people in my lifetime that had a company try to enforce a non-compete. Two were during a Microsoft/Google fight, and one was in the late 60s with a scientist. Has anybody around here been sued after lea

I use an external keyboard with my mbp mostly, but I use my escape key more regularly than all my F-keys and the fn/command buttons. I really don't think I'd buy a laptop that was missing what I consider to be a key componen

I don't think you'll have a problem finding a poker room in the US that allows phones on the table, but finding one that didn't realize you were lighting up the cards with IR light would be pretty impossible.

That's interesting. I dealt roulette occasionally in my younger years ('90s) and we had 3 different sized balls to work with if we sensed someone getting a little too lucky. I don't know the inner workings of casinos in the

Was somebody under the impression that there are no conservatives involved in funding and creating startups? If you live in a world where you think you only have to deal with people who follow your political ideology, I feel sorry for you.
