   You're probably going to get more bang for your buck if you go with a Windows machine. Windows 10 + Windows Subsystem for Linux is a great setup for learning to code. You can use VS Code and the remote plugins to do your work in the WS

   I'm guessing Google has a very wide-ranging non-compete and/or IP ownership agreement that'd keep him from doing this. He works for Google, and I bet Google would say "we own your work, all of it".

   I've been wanting to get some kind of fitness tracker to go with my Pixel 3XL, but it seems like nothing can touch the Apple Watch at this point. So I keep my iPhone around. If Apple would play nice with PCs and let you type texts from

    I came here to say this. Parenting is the hardest thing I’ve ever put my hands to. Something that works one day might be a disaster the next day. You have a multitude of well-meaning friends with gobs of parenting advice. Everyone knows wha

    Question, because I don’t know how this works. Who sets the valuation on a company? Does a CEO have anything to do with that, or is it wholly external?

    I would much rather use Firefox full time, but many sites (like youtube.com, for example) just don't render well/speedily/at all on FF. Open Chrome and everything is fine. I get TFA said some devs don't write/test

    I could not be more opposed to the abolishment of the Electoral College. The founders had a very good rationale for putting it in. That said... I think there's a solution for this. Hard term limits for everyone, in all the branches. It

    Is the protocol itself important to users? or is it mostly important just to developers? If it makes a practical difference to a user, how so?

    I'm not a professional email administrator, but I thought this was more than just a function of the client, but you had to configure things on the back end too? When you set it up in Gmail, it doesn't just let you add an alias and

    I'm not trying to make it sound easy. It definitely took some getting used to. It took me about a month. Now, I can't imagine going without it.

    At some point that goes away. Your future educational history eclipses and sort of "hides" all that. I got a GED in 1991, in lieu of traditional high school graduation. I'd been in foster care. Once I'd been in college,

    I think that even standing a lot is A Bad Idea. You're trading one mobility problem (sitting with little/no motion) for another (standing with little/no motion). Moving is better, all the way around. I'm biased I admit..

    To discount the sweeping changes in the company culture because they haven't yet worked on what you want them to, don't you think that's a little short-sighted? I wanted Microsoft to release a new terminal. It took 2 years. N

    I have Linux-on-the-Windows-Desktop. WSL, that is. For my use case, it's fucking amazing. I've come full circle. I switched from Windows to Linux in 1999. I switched from Linux to Mac in 2003. I've used Linux natively, it tur
