Google Forms now requires you to sign in with a Google Account before you can use a public form. Total pain in the ass.

Sadly, didn’t fix it. I was asked for my Apple password again, but then it put me back in the same spot where I’m just stuck on the iCloud window. Ugh.

Thanks. Frustrating to have to do this. Nothing like paying $4500 for a laptop only to have it be a pain to upgrade 2 weeks in... I’ll have to force power off... little hesitant to do that mid-upgrade but seems like the install is done an

I bought an SE as a burner phone. I got sick of switching SIM cards when I traveled. Anyway, grew to really love it. The size is perfect. It's flat and perfect without a case. Biggest feature: It has Apple Pay, a home button, and a th

Privacy vs. security... it's a complicated. Nobody cares that the police can tap a phone line... so by that logic, why can't they tap any other communication medium? But... what I do know is that the Australian government is not

Glad they rolled back the redesign. Hopefully they will work to improve "Skype for Business" to work more like Skype. Skype for Business is just horrible. 1) Messages appear grouped by who I send them to, but there are multiple me

So, we should limit discussions on HN to people with WSJ subscriptions? I feel like anything posted here shouldn't be behind a pay wall. Especially such an easy to bypass pay wall. Kind of tempted to write a plugin that would change t

But CA still has to have a 1.8 GPM shower head?! Yeah, makes sense. =P Pre-1994 all shower heads were like 6 GPM -- those were nice showers. Not sure we've really saved any water by making people take longer, crappier showers. Sydney

This is so creepy, but expected. Banks will say they are only handing over antonimized data... and Facebook will find away to pair spending with location and de-anonymize the data —- a move the banks anticipated and agreed to all along. So

Most taxis have videos... just a matter of who watches it. Is it less creepy if it's just some guy watching old surveillance videos if he works for a security company? Or the NSA? Because... well, look, if you find this creepy you&#x

Notice no pictures of the horribly unreliable keyboard, useless touch bar, and ridiculously over-sized track pad in the marketing release. I hope my personal MBP 2013 never dies... it's still a better machine than anything Apple has do

Job gave me a MBP with a touch bar. In the past I've been able to grab an older MBP 15" but they were out of them. So... a small slice of electrical tape solved the issue. Ugh, it's ghetto. It's the worst invention.

CPU usage seems lower. Especially on streaming videos. Am I seeing things or is that intended? Nice though, my MBP fans don't spin nearly as much when surfing today.
