The source that gave the material to the journalist is the one breaking the law, not the journalist who is given and disseminates the information.

I eat more than my fair share of dark chocolate, so I took a look at that. The toxic levels are _a lot_ of chocolate, and I can't even imagine consuming anywhere near the lethal levels. That said, I think the black licorice case here a

Carmack's Facebook Connect talk last week[1] sure made him sound very plugged into what's happening at Oculus. I was surprised, given that I, too, thought he had essentially left for AI research. [1]: https://www.youtub

I haven't looked at the Shorts feature, but I think the fact that both Reels and Shorts are being integrated into bigger, well-established interfaces will make a big difference (quite possibly negative). TikTok is just TikToks. Reels h

I've had an Oculus Quest for the past ~15 months (essentially since it came out). It doesn't have the power for high-end PC levels of detail, but being able to just strap on the headset and start playing is delightful. It works qu

FWIW, I have owned _a lot_ of Apple products over the past decade. They have been almost universally reliable and overall pretty great to use. I _did_ have to send my 2018 MacBook Pro in for the dreaded & common keyboard repair. We also

I disagree with the reality you present. There are a lot of people, myself included, with a considerable amount of experience who found that maintaining jQuery/Backbone code to be complex and error-prone and React presented a solution

I wonder if it's related to the size of the codebase you have right now, but compiler speed is one thing I've noticed from other comparisons. OCaml is said to have a much faster compiler than Rust.

2020 is very different from 2008. Palm and PocketPC devices were "organizers" and not primary computing devices (as smartphones are today, for some users), so there was a lot less at stake back then. Additionally, companies like S

While I agree that GCP's deprecation policy is painful, I don't think he's painting a compelling picture that the deprecation policy, specifically, is the reason GCP isn't ranked higher. Taking two of the examples of &qu

Many organizations have non-technical founders in addition to the technical ones. IIRC, Mitchell has been the chairperson of the board for ages (if not the whole time) and has moved into and out of the CEO role as needs dictated, including
