Amusingly enough, the standard menu position for Quit on the Mac is at the bottom of the menu… _now_ the Uninstall Zoom option is at the bottom of the menu, making it easy to accidentally invoke if you're used to selecting the last ite

+1 to everything you said. I can see the features of this site supporting a quick view into stuff that's going on, but the design needs a lot of work. One thing I wish: I don't want to go to a separate page to see the few facts, e

I don’t know... this seems likely easy to get going, but limited by the cards. And then you can jump to JS, so it may be a good gateway?

Just like Stackdriver (acquired in 2014)? Seriously, it seems like Looker is filling a specific hole in the Google Cloud offering.

iPhone is Apple's biggest product by a large margin and it's in a super competitive space. There's no way they'll hold back features that reasonably work on it.

I've got no stake in this, but I'll note that from the claims Wolfram has made, they've got a 30 year track record in which notebooks going back to 1.0 still run in the latest version.

Okay, I see where you're coming from and appreciate you taking the time to clarify. There is evidence that there has always been a homosexual subset of the population. One can say that this is part of the "fallen" nature of t

This year's macOS update is expected to include a framework which makes it easy to port iOS apps. That will likely be exciting for developers, because there are _a lot_ more iOS developers than Mac developers. The Mac is already a unix

Thanks for the link, though the exact nature of the inquiry into Galileo was not my point. It was accepted _as truth_ that the sun went around Earth by a great many people back then. Going back up the chain in this thread, pesmhey said: &gt

I launched Firefox about 10 minutes ago and saw no change. I looked up at the window again a minute or so ago and saw that my addons were back. I'm guessing there's a timer for it to check for new studies?

For people worried about Audible's dominance here, there's _starting_ to be a countermovement among indie publishers, and I assume big publishers would also support competition. * Chirp, from Bookbub: https://www.chirpb

If you're in the Apple ecosystem, there's an app called Grocery[1]. It uses the built-in reminders database, but does lots of excellent grocery-specific things (remembering the order of items in the store, using geofencing to know

Congrats on your retirement! And enjoy your opportunity to work with whatever languages you like. The variety of tools available today is so much greater than it was in the 80s.

Evernote has an export format and a bunch of other tools can import Evernote exports, given how popular Evernote is. It's not perfect, but it's pretty good.

Yeah, that's fair that the individual podcast pricing may not scale for the consumer the way the Spotify model does. I write fiction on the side and am able to put my ebooks (and print books, for that matter) into a variety of stores.

Indeed, that's true. While I'm not saying they're good for everything, one thing I like about SPAs is that the server can just serve up an API that is usable by both web and mobile clients. No duplication of templating/v
