Recently I’ve been using my iPad as a transcription “keyboard” for my laptop when writing documents in Dropbox paper. Open the document on both computers, then use dictate to enter all text, and then correct if necessary with the laptop. I’

The right solution really depends on your use case. I'm perfectly happy with how tabs work, hardly every have more than 10 open. Tabs are for pages i'm going to use in the next 30 minutes (or that have state i want to keep), bookm

You’ll be able to connect you’re mobile devices to large screens soon, see the M1/M2 iPads. A lot of professional content creation is already moving to mobile devices like music, 3D design, writing, painting, video shooting and editing

With iPadOS 16.2 you’ll be able to connect your M1/M2 iPad to a big monitor via usb-c, use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and it’ll be just like using a laptop.

There are alternative ways to deal with a downturn, in the past German companies have successfully introduced part-time employment for all employees to avoid having to layoff employees. This avoids employee knowledge and experience from lea

There are enough studies that will prepare you for a job, it's just that most young people are more interested in doing something interesting or fulfilling, and make economically unwise decisions.

I think the real value goes beyond a single individual: without proper education a society cannot succeed. Even from a purely economic perspective: you need smart and educated people to start and run companies, you need more smart and educa

Completely agree, and that is also the reason I think education should be in a large part socially/government funded: I benefit from other people around me being educated. I’d expect there must be some research that indicates that for

Something similar happened to me as well, kite dropped in on shore winds in fairly small surf (max 2 meters), but pretty soon the lines were around my legs. Tried to cut the lines using the knive in my harness, but couldn’t get loose. Lucki

It's not the car designers, it's the consumers that voted with their wallets by mostly buying angry cars. Apparently car drivers feel a need to intimidate the road users around them...

Same here, block 60 minutes for lunch. Either 30 minutes lunch and 30 minutes walk, or just bring some sandwiches to eat during walk. If i'm lucky i can take 120 minutes lunch, will go surfing for 60 minutes.

Since this is an IDE I wonder what your idea is for version control? In my opinion a database should be considered a deployment container, not a place where you’d normally do live development.

It should ignore "almost monospace". Most projects have multiple developers, you should assume different developers have different IDE/font preferences, so your formatting shouldn't try to cater for it.

I stopped manually formatting code long ago, just accept what the code formatter tool decides is good enough. Saves a lot of time.

There are plenty of startups that focus on enterprise (integration) software, don't see how these are mutually exclusive. And you can be both a hacker at night and an enterprise software engineer by day.

Problem is that renters often don’t have alternatives. They don’t like the contract, but they’re kind of forced to sign for lack of better options.

You’re probably better off buying at 7% than at 2.75% if housing prices are adjusted. You get the house for less, more room for profit when you sell. Also, if you’re force to sell, it’s better to do this on a loan of 750k rather than 1m.

Housing prices are mostly supply and demand driven, but it's the supply and demand of location, not of the building itself. Next to that, the maximum price is largely defined by how much people can and are willing to borrow with a typi

The zoning laws are easier to work with, they’re basically summarizing a large number of anti-nuisance laws. In practice, it shouldn’t really matter if you have one or the other for the resulting city.

I don’t think that first statement is pointless, it just shows you have the ability to learn and to admit you’re not perfect. And regret just means you made a choice in the past, that you’d done differently being the person you are today, a
