These food delivery apps tend to execute it poorly, but multiples orders in a single run is pretty standard fare in food delivery. If you order delivery from a pizza place during lunch or dinner rush, the vast majority of the time the resta

I'm curious to see what happens with the new installs, which terminate the fiber directly at the gateway using the SFP port on the new BGW320 gateways, rather than using a separate ONT like they have historically. The UDM Pro has an SF

If you're using a sweetener to cut the bitterness (rather than to add sweetness), then you may enjoy cold-brewed coffee. Cold water is far less effective than hot water at extracting tannins from coffee grounds, which are the primary

As far as I recall, Yelp predates Google having any of those features at all. So in one sense, the "value in Yelp" was in being successful enough to get Google to emulate their feature-set directly within the search results. Which

Doubtful as the law would likely need updated to allow for that. They'd basically have no way to enforce the punitive counter-measures. They could certainly hit a company with an invoice, but that company could just ignore it. As Githu

For the purposes of intrusion detection, even metadata about an encrypted connection can be helpful. You get the (potentially unencrypted) metadata about the connection at the beginning of it, but also a host of other metadata such as time

Yes. It's like finding a security vulnerability without any evidence it was exploited. Just because an AP clerk could embezzle money that way, doesn't mean that they've identified evidence of that happening. But now they&#x

Not the individual you replied to, but my company uses both internally. We used to use Skype (for softphones, video meetings, and IM), which sucked for group messaging. Slack unofficially picked up steam to fill the void, among some teams.
