What is incredible is that this makes the opposite point Gruber thinks he's making. 1. For legalese, the definition of "trader" is incredibly simple. 2. The definition of "trader" is a broad definition. It's u

If he said "use Erlang" then that eliminates the actual message he's trying to convey, which is message passing is good. I bet if he simply said "use Erlang", 99% of headlines and discussion would be "Alan Kay

Yes, because Apple can do no wrong. You ask any long time macOS/OSX user and they will point to Apple software quality worsening well before anything comes up in the news media. Heck, I'm in the camp that thinks Apple OSX software

Funny how MS comes out of its regulatory probationary period and immediately Windows turns into a massive ad for MS services that go out of their way to make your life miserable. Something to keep in mind when complaining about the highly l

This combined with states making child labor (including hard labor on farms and in slaughterhouses) legal makes me wonder what century I'm living in.

I think this is a really nice idea. I suspect I will continue using mod + {num} but I love the implementation. I've always liked OS X's distinction between Alt + Tab which switches between App, and then Alt + ~ to switch between t

You still have that available. This is for when you might not remember which workspace the stuff you're looking for or are just more visual in recognizing the workspace you need.

Right...but before they were happy they were complaining about the awful EU (and they still are). Here's John Gruber (who I like a lot, but you know when his Apple blinders are blinding him). https://daringfireball.net/

I'm quite torn on this (to be fair, I rarely use voice commands at all...I've found it's usually more effort to fix things when it gets it wrong than the cumulative sum of all the times it may save me any time whatsoever). 1.

Companies usually avoid laying off people before the holidays. My company did that once and despite not being a company that's ever really in the news, made the news for that reason.

Part of it is that Netflix is trash. There is no benefit for Netflix to make great shows. They don't need to attract new viewers. In fact, high quality shows with intricate and difficult story lines are a detriment to the slow drip sug

I have been primarily a Mac user, but Windows 7 was pretty good. Windows 8 was awful and I refused to use it. However, Windows 10 was really good relative to Windows 8 primarily because it continued some of the good underlying tech Windows

Apparently JFK called in for a favor as well. That's the rumor. Maybe it's untrue, but I wouldn't be too surprised at this point in the fiasco.

They're short for different phrases. "How many times does 2 go into 20" is 20/2, which is shortened to "2 into 20". "20 divided by 2" is also 20/2, which is shortened to "20 by 2". I&#x

Britain has been one of the highest trading nations in the world for centuries. That's what their colonies were for. So I don't think it's as simple as British manufacturing all having moved overseas. A lot of British consump

Citbike in NYC, a bike share program, saw record usage during and post COVID. If COVID really hurt Bird, what it might be indicating is that Bird's primary user was tourists rather than locals using it as a mode of transportation.

Over a 100 years the 4.5mm is 450mm pounds. Less than half a billion. What do you expect the liability to the state would be for all the wills getting wiped out, or modified, etc. Another way to think about it is, what would a private compa

There is an easy way to get around the "reported crimes" issue. Look at murders. Dead bodies will not be hidden. And murders are also showing returns close to historic lows. Also, the cities people are moving to have much higher p
