Leaving the store with items you didn't pay for is theft on any level, and bad for business.

I think sometimes people get too hung up on arbitrary numbers. Will another ~2.5% of elapsed time really make much of a difference? Also, why shouldn't the people who discovered it get to open it at this point?

I can't wait to show up to the next election with some ESP32's configured to create networks like "Diebold System 1" or "Vote Reorganizer".

Yes, but you shouldn't extrapolate from that. In many cases "startups" are much much easier to manage remotely. You often have a much smaller, and more focused, employee base. There is much less room for unproductive employe

Yeah, it's a real shit show when you get down to actually trying to utilize IPv6 in any scenario that needs legacy IPv4 access in a straight-forward way. I'm somewhat happy in that I've moved away from being way down at the l

(assuming you are in the US). Go to Amazon, buy an ESP32 beginner kit, which should come with an ESP32 dev board, a handful of different sensors and components, and a breadboard and some wires. It will also have some sample code. Go throug

But Dropbox made rsync more user friendly and available to people who weren't techies. The concept of a starter interrupter has been around almost as long as the automobile itself. Ways to engage and disengage that interrupter have evo

It is obvious in retrospect because this concept has been around for 30 years. A common killswitch mechanism that I remember being implemented in the early 90's was a system that tied into accessory devices. On my friends car you had t

I think the point is that "all modern software" has all kinds of delays and buffering before playing, in contrast to this site where the audio just plays instantly and reliably.

Agreed, this feels like a propaganda pushback against rising concerns and restrictions over DJI drones.

I feel like the whole "Make" brand/site/magazine/everything transitioned too much from Hacker to Hipster. As another comment pointed out, it become more craft-y, almost like "tech crafts". Probably a large

But this is not really an accurate comparison. "Code" is really a much much much smaller and much much much more structured output than "English words". Presumably, the system was trained with a very small amount of &quo

I don't think that is correct, many vehicles now have the auto start/stop as a way of meeting emissions requirements.

All McMansions are ultimately delivered on a bunch of trailers. It's just a matter of how much of it is pre-assembled. But I understand what you are saying, it looks more impressive to have it built onsite instead of having a handful o

If a software startup assembles a bunch of open source hardware together and packages it as a product, would you say they don't "make" software? No, I'd say they are more of a software company than a hardware company t

For any rating system, I tend to reserve the top-tier ranking for something that exceeds normal or reasonable expectations. So the average Uber trip gets 4 stars when I rate it. 4 means it met my expectations, nothing went wrong, but also n

Your observation is certainly true, but it is also based on the premise that Apple never makes a wrong move, which seems statistically unlikely. I think this could be considered the first major post-Jobs product launch. We are coming up on
