I recently found my Dad still uses the Picasa library I setup on a home PC maybe 15 years ago.

In fairness the Google list looks similar. - Hangouts - Wave - Plus - Duo - Meet - Chat

This was my immediate thought as well. Sounds like it might become a full time job to hang all the maliciously donated A1 posters.

Same, I thought for an occasional gamer like myself it was a good value service with a very low cost of entry. I am now pretty reluctant to pay to keep any games though with this rumour alive.

Where do Fuji feature in size? IMO their products are exceptional - coming from Nikon DSLRs at least.

Not really, it's almost like the negative correlation makes this possible. America has very high rates of violent crime, and because of that, assassinating a former president would be really difficult.

I think the high price actually means that is a typical user. The original casual user type this has been designed for likely use iPads or Chromebooks at this point.

> bad configuration I briefly worked at a company with 1,000+ devs. They all used a single locked down Jira configuration. It had something like 30 columns - it was almost totally unreadable.

You've missed my main one, which is really hard to copy and paste issue numbers. Normally have to ctrl+click to open an issue in a new window, then select the key from the browser's URL field.

What's your experience of Numbers? Because for my occasional use Pages has been fine, but Numbers breaks almost every existing spreadsheet I've tried, and doesn't seem nearly as capable as even Google Sheets.

However, most energy you burn in a gym is converted into heat energy, which the gym then burns extra electricity trying to air condition.

Which is a very short lived behaviour change. Our smart display went missing during a house move, and hasn't been compatible with most of the energy suppliers we've had since moving in. It was probably the worst energy scheme they

You jest, but imagine how time consuming it would be if every app we used was setup like CloudFlare, where only the one super admin can deal with billing. Also in these days of remote work, it's a problem if the credit card details nee

Cloudflare's pricing has issues. My company was paying $20 a month. We were heavily depended on CF, we'd have been happy to pay more. But... the one feature we wanted was for our accounts team to have their own login so the ops te

I want to know... do the people working in this space talk much about it? Like are there industry conferences, working groups, slack channels for hostage negotiators?

The account wasn't critical, mostly just me learning AWS. I'm not sure there is / was a way to pay an arbitrary amount - unless you mean just turning on an instance for a while to generate a full $1 of costs in order to be ab

Similar happened with me on AWS about 10 years ago - ended up with my account being shut down. I managed to exceed a free tier and get charged $0.01 USD for S3 storage. They kept trying to take the payment from my card, but my bank couldn&#

I would have thought electrification might work well on very specialist machinery - perhaps around horticulture, vinyards, greenhouses, etc. But part of the appeal of a big powerful tractor is their huge versatility - you'd loose a lot

They do, and this is fairly common on vast machines like combine harvesters. However they are a lot more expensive to run and maintain - eg. just think about the additional moving parts and friction. Also it's possible they do differen

Yeah I had Lotus SmartSuite - I remember it had quite nice skeuomorphic design in a lot of areas. You're probably right about the competition, Wordperfect was the market leader at one point, and Adobe also had FrameMaker - perhaps more

Interesting. I remember seeing 1/3 of fatalities involved a signalised intersection, although in fairness I can't find an international comparison.

Even just 4 way stops. Staggering the exits, oblique angles, or roundabouts would be far safer than trusting that every driver pays attention to every red light.

Isn't it the other way around - Trello has been around and used for informal project planning for years before Notion became trendy.

I wonder if that's because they were unclean by association, or did they just have to do practical stuff like cook / go to the market / make hot water bottles?

Or maybe it's just the common viewpoint among most computer-literate, non-retired Brits.

A co-pilot is still a pilot, and nobody willingly ejects from a healthy aircraft. Ejecting can still go wrong, and subjects your body to huge compressive forces - it's not uncommon to fracture your spine. Interesting point about non pi
