The article doesn't mention creating a national identification card in the USA nor does it talk about implementing any kind of nationwide identifier. Instead the on-boarding process for ID.me is described. In my opinion the poster is c

The larger issue, in my opinion, is that people seem to be looking less for clear and understandable information about current events and more for skewed (possibly even false) information that they find entertaining, comforting, etc. I can

I think it's worth mentioning that the executive branch of the US government, including the president of the US, were supporting the rioters. In my opinion, this is part of the reason why the capital was not more secure. It may be more

With limits on how long they can hold the office, there will be a much shorter time span in which they can collect and act on inside information. There will also be a much shorter time span in which they can form relationships with these co

I have to disagree. While the common thread is consumption and sustainability I found the article about moving away from new laptops to be interesting.

When I bought a DVR, some cable networks were starting to speed up scenes of shows in order to fit in all of commercials.[0] I think this started in the late 90's but that's just my personal recollection. I did spot a Reddit threa

In my opinion, these two quoted sentences are doing pretty much all the work in this article. I'm kind of surprised this article is on the front page, given the lack of detail.

When I read it, my first thought was that "an API" in this case was SQL. Understanding why we should use database transactions is not the same, to my mind, as understanding database internals. When the author said they can treat t

I'm not sure anyone really enjoys working with Visual Studio anymore. It was compelling, back in the day, when I was doing desktop apps. But for web development I just don't think it has any real edge over other tools in this spac

I don't think people will swap out VS Code for the full fledged Visual Studio. The people using Code for .Net Core work will likely spend the money on Rider. Everyone else will be kind of puzzled at the comparison; it seems pretty heav

Having worked with a lot of managers, it can cut both ways. Perhaps it's the lessons these managers learned (or chose to learn) when they were more directly involved in the development process that really matters. The people who came a

I think the line is little more muddled and mushier than that. Where I work, the product manager runs the stand-ups and is responsible for writing and prioritizing stories as well as grooming the backlog. They seem a lot like the project ma

When I'm feeling generous, I would guess the company doesn't want to spend the money required to compensate people with that level of experience.

I don't think people are all that interested in native UI widgets anymore. I think Electron has shown that a web-like UI is more than good enough.

My personal experience has been that I need a referral from my primary physician before I can get physical therapy covered under my insurance. So far, when I express to my physician my interest in PT they are happy to provide the referral.

That is a good point, it's still Emacs after all. These distributions do provide the ability to add the features you might need (Org-Mode, python or ruby support, etc.) without having to download a bunch of files of Elisp and code up a

Aside from editing on mobile devices, I think Emacs isn't as hard to pick up as it once was. It's certainly not easy but tools like Spacemacs or Doom make it much simpler to get started and really limit the need to create and edit

As the unit aged, more and more I would also leave the wireless on my DX disabled. I would turn it on when I needed it which, as you mention, has become more and more rare. My real use-case for the DX was textbooks because the screen was la

I have a DX, as far as I can tell it does not have any WiFi capability. It's only network connectivity is cellular.

I don't really get dizzy or disoriented unless it's a game where you move with the joystick control or something. Games where you move around a table or teleport from place to place haven't bothered me at all.

I'm skeptical that this claim is true. Even a cursory look at news articles related to Robin Hood shows that these concerns are way more than boilerplate legalese.

I disagree that most PC vendors are capable or good at helping consumers reset passwords of local Windows accounts. This is not a trivial process, take a look at the HP support page on this issue. https://support.hp.com/us-e

Password recovery seems like another big reason to push this. Many consumers don't really have any tech support, aside from vendors like Dell or HP. With an MS account, Microsoft can manage this process.

As ludicrous as it may be to blame Apple, they have said many times that the cut they take on apps and in-app sales is part of how they keep the platform secure and ensure the privacy of their customers.[0] While it's clear to me that

The biggest gain is the security of all of the code running on someone else's hardware. The biggest loss is also security: all of your keystrokes, passwords, traffic, etc. are stored on someone else's hardware.
