I doubt it. An estimate for the iPad puts the cost of the touchscreen controller at 2$[1]. I'm not sure that actually includes the capacitive sensors but I doubt they add much more cost. [1] https://www.macobserver.com/

Absolutely. It may be true that people look less at glass buildings than concrete ones, but the evidence they present is worthless. That doesn't mean it ISN'T true - that would be just as bad a fallacy - it just means this article

The second image doesn't have anything else in the image to look at, whereas the first has multiple buildings and plenty of sky space. This article is bollocks. They've worked backwards from a conclusion to find (bad) evidence.

No. And I would expect anti monopoly laws legislation to outlaw this in any halfway civilised country (altho I wouldn't hold out much hope for America). "The toaster oven will only accept certain co-branded bread and other marked-

It's a corporate communication tool. Harassment, etc. should be dealt with at the corporate (or legal, if required) level. It doesn't make sense to allow people to block their workmates. It's for work, not a dating app. Tinde

I am affected strongly by association. I concentrate fine at work, but in my bedroom, my brain can't get out of relaxation mode. It's constantly going "this is the room we sleep in, it must be time for sleep" And I have

Clever. I would have gone with 'Select all images related to set'. If I recall correctly, 'set' has the most definitions of any English word, plus it could lead to some interesting contradictions, paradoxes, and confusio

My favourite sites are Hacker News, and similarly reddit with the old design and custom themes turned off. Functional, clean, content focused, and high - but not too high - information density. There are changes I would make to both, but th

I have no special knowledge of this field or of academia but it sounds like a classic case of Impostor Syndrome to me. You sound very accomplished - two Master's!? Most people only have one or zero when they start a PhD. I'm sure

I became so frustrated with this that recently I setup a Task Scheduler item to overwrite the group policy display settings to "Never sleep", every 1 minute, forever. I still have to move them back once in the morning when I unhib
