To a certain degree I don't care. If we build feature A instead of my preferred feature B I'll still get paid the same. I'm professional enough to put the same effort into decisions I disagree with. Everyone will experienc

The key element is the poster was essentially _representing_ their employer at a tech conference. This would be no different than wearing the uniform of a supermarket and going on a political rant with a megaphone.

Arrogance got them fired, nothing else. If you are at a tech conference, likely on company time, then you are in effect representing your employer. This includes the content of the constant stream of tweets.

Musi on iOS [0] is a fantastic YouTube client which removes ads. The trick, albeit slightly inconvenient, is to copy/paste the exact YT title you wish to view. The search functionality isn’t that good. Some things live like streams d

Integration is the primary reason I enjoy using Apple ecosystem. My phone, laptop, tablet and watch all work seamlessly together. I use most of Apple's "built in" applications like Mail, Notes, Photos, etc. with Firefox (ins

Similar think in NL. Every quarter our boss would apologise and ask us to fill out timesheets (to the best of our knowledge). Something like 20% of a FTE position could be "R&D" and this is what they claimed back.

My mk1 TT is based on the mk4 "platform" so can use spare parts from Golf, Jetta, Ibiza, etc. Plenty of cars used the 1.8T engine too which is handy.

The selling off of communities _dedicated_ to IP (Disney is an excellent example you give) is a genius move imho, and perhaps was part of the strategy for going IPO. Not only does Reddit slurp up more user data via official Apps, they have
