Maybe its a typo and they mean the Magsafe3 connector? I though the USB-C standard was limited to 100 watts.

This is just MBA speak. They wanted to build a new format that would take a while for the competitor to figure out how to copy. And they wanted that new format to help them gain market share against a key competitor.

Keep it stupid simple. Use tech that you understand and minimize the layers of complexity between deploying, starting and troubleshooting an instance. For me, I like digital ocean droplet(s). Stupid simple IAM. SSH scripts for CI deployme

I bet you're right--Apple would prefer to have Fortnite and and corresponding revenue and userbase back on their platform. But this case isn't over. There's almost certain to be an appealed. Apple wants to maximize their po

I doubt OnlyFans ever intended to actually do this. Just a creative marketing blitz to drum up awareness. Next up, McDonald's to stop selling Cheeseburgers and Tesla to stop making cars.

Yet, the outcome was a thriving country of South Korea and a net territorial gain for the south as well. This is a successful war by the standards of how most wars are measured.

Yes and its exactly like this for our slightly less sapient animal siblings. "I'm hungry. You look like food. "I don't want to be food. I'm running away". The outcome is boolean. And an order emerges in for

I think if you look at the history of the worlds current democracies you'll find that most came about through armed revolution. America, for example, was armed by the French during their revolutionary war. I'd say that result was

Completely agree. The problem is the population never owned the country. They didn't liberate themselves. And they're at home as conquered populace. Someday the west will learn that Democracy can't be "gifted". P

The Korean war was a defensive war. The goal was not to annihilate an opponent. It was to defend an ally. This result was achieved, thus a successful war.

The Korean war was a defensive war where the North Koreans with the help of the Chinese almost pushed the South Koreans into the ocean. American intervention resulted in heavy NK losses. Although a defensive war, it also resulted in a net

World War 2 and the Korean War. Modern US war doctrine is garbage. They believe a fallacy that war can be fought with precision weapons directed only at enemy combatants. Leaving most civilians and their infrastructure unharmed. The best

I follow this pattern as well along with one caveat: I refuse to cut and paste code while learning. I require myself to retype any examples, stack overflows, and so on in the process of learning. Along the way, I get a handle on the patte

My mind immediately went to trying to match a screenshot of the article that someone posted. The USA Today website does a little bit of localization in the navigation bar. If that's visible together with the system clock its probably

Completely agree. Even better as a constitutional amendment. Imagine if finger print matching and other sorts of identifying methods were so opaque?

Great ideas. Sadly not the direction being taken by the EU.

The problem is that this is one company in the EU. It won't change how America, Russia, the middle east, or anyone else produces fossil fuels. Shell will desiccate from this action. And people will declare victory. But EU member st

I'm a long time DO customer (and recent shareholder). And I received a copy of this email from DO this morning. I'm beyond frustrated by this. Among other things, this leak correlates my email address to billing location. AKA,

According to protagonists in WSB, some of that volume are hedge funds covering the shorts coming due tomorrow morning. Regarding price, I wouldn’t be surprised to see GME hold a super premium price for years to come. T
