My interpretation was simply painting the picture of who helped him, and not commentary about muslim beliefs. As another commenter said—humanizing the part of the locked deodorant, and that they did not mind because at the end of the day “w

Webworkers run on their own thread. The point of this is to run low-priority tasks without impacting the main loop, and without the complexity of separate threads.

In defense of the documentation, this is a convenience wrapper around “requestIdleCallback” which from MDN: “queues a function to be called during a browser's idle periods.” https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs

I hope I don’t find myself with a bunch of smarthome solutions that are no longer supported. Amazon is nixing CloudCam, which rendered my Kwikset Amazon Key front door lock relatively useless.

It’s gonna take time. Don’t lose hope. And all the 5-7 year devs who no-hire senior folks, will eventually find themselves being no-hired when they hit the 15 year mark.

Apple's fortunes changed largely due to making the ipod PC compatible. It was effectively the trojan horse of the Apple eco-system. Secondarily it was due to Apple switching from PowerPC to Intel chips, allowing it to compete more broa
