   Ok, then you can get a good DSLR/mirrorless camera with exchangeable lenses, set it to auto and ignore all the buttons? Anyway we're beating a dead horse, you're longing for something I don't fully understand, I hope som

   What you're describing is basically a modern phone. Just get an iPhone pro, done.

   Yeah, but typically your kids don't die if you can't afford a new iPhone.

   This comes as a surprise to whom exactly? Seems like the ideal scenario for ... insurance. Good health almost always costs nothing, but when an intervention is required, it's crazy expensive. -> everybody pays a negligible amount in

   The publication date is unclear, but the latest citation is 2011. It doesn't make economic sense anymore to use seven segment displays in new products, small TFT/LCD and even OLEDs are cheaper. It probably does make sense to use t

   Isn't Theia just yet another VS Code clone built on top of the ~VS Code platform? Also, it's a true shame that all the usable names have been used up.

   Wasn't the main issue with MLS that they got patent trolled/sued by Skyhook? Anyone know the patents involved and how beacon DB is avoiding the issues?

    Bullshit du jour. In the context of health care a hospital could have digital twins of heart monitors and patients. You can then manage which heart monitors are attached to which patient using a "computer". If you have ever done a

    I'm so glad to find some sane voices here! I mean, sure, if you're really serving a lot of traffic to Mombasa, akamai will reduce latency. You could also try to avoid multi megabyte downloads for a simple page.

    You're saying they intented to piss off easily triggered fans of a second rate 90ies sci-fi show? That would be hilarious, but I'm afraid you're giving Popular Mechanic too much credit.

    Amazes me how people pass judgement without having read the article or considered the meaning of "portal"...

    The article is not referring to an "alien conspiracy time travel portal" but to an entrance.

    I think it's safe to say at this point that it hasn't gained a lot of traction, at least outside of google. If you are making a forward looking business decision, I'd probably avoid it. OTOH people are actively working on it

    I believe there's a general consensus that you shouldn't operate heavy machinery if you are impaired in any way, be it alcohol, pot or OTC antihistamines.

    The Quakers base all their decisions on consensus. First time I heard this it seemed ridiculous, they'll never get anything done! But it usually works out well. It especially helps prioritizing: finding a consensus on whether to fix th

    If that's your paranoia level: How do you know the "offline" tool you're using is not uploading to a server? Possibly inadvertently in the course of bug reports, or surreptitiously while contacting the license server...?

    Ironically, suicide rates are typically fairly low among people dealing with actual existential problems. Depression is not very prevalent until all basic needs are taken care of.

    That may be correct -- depending on the degree to which you agree with Pinker's (I assume) interpretation of statistics. But it probably does not reflect the reality of the people contemplating or committing suicide. They may also not
