I've been driven to the store and told to pick out my own computer and accessories and nobody ever had it in their hands for any length of time other than the employee who carried it to me. This has happened in two of my seven or so jo

I'm glad that the favorite son could do the right thing for the state of NY, particularly when their positive cases are exploding.

We run almost all of our UIs on S3 static hosting behind CloudFront. Works like a champ. I'm a bit stumped on why they say to avoid using local indices in DynamoDB, though.

It's a bit hyperbolic to call it a "grift." Impose enough constraints on the idea of a flying car and sure, you can achieve it without swindling. The responses here are enough to tell me that people have very different ideas

His surgeon general has echoed his sentiment although not so tersely. Yes, they are only two people, but if you can't believe either of these two people, who can you trust, particularly when they are making exclusive claims? Besides, h

The president himself severely downplayed it and gave the opposite advice as his own health officials (including [paraphrasing] "it's just the flu" and "go to work.")

I fly Frontier very regularly by quality choice and not by price. The fares are great, but the only other people flying the routes are United (awful awful) and Southwest (great but also pricey). More generally, I am not impressed by any U.S

+1, this is what we do in many of our tens-of-thousands of LoC codebases where I work and it works out great. I can't think of a single downside since we switched, actually.

Agreed. I tried to make it work (for a mix of systems and web development) and although it's possible, it's ham-fisted at best. I would love to see some first-class developer support for the iPad (or Pro only, not picky, although

How can/does a consumer know if the shop they are visiting is illicit? I believe the shops I patronize operate legally, or at least for the most part - the prices are still much lower than the black market prices where I came from. How

This is more of a regulatory issue than anything. Airspace is very strictly controlled in both countries. Further, outside of NA and Europe, GA is simply not as commonplace and in many cases like China/Russia, it's because it&#x27

Good point. For purposes over a quite-small space, it's not a huge difference. However, I was quite surprised the first time I saw a magnetic declination map. Before flying I had never really considered the difference at all.

Yeah...I will not miss their infrastructure at all. If you live in a moderately-populated area (anywhere on the west coast), the stations have been laughable. They're overcrowded and many stalls are VERY OFTEN broken. I may wait up to

Is there evidence to suggest China sees '89 as a miscalculation? Seems like their ultimate goal was successful.

This is great news! Thanks for sharing. We've been pulling in moment-tz where needed but using date-fns in projects where timezones weren't needed.

Surely this is good for everyone save airline operators. Less planes on busy routes, more options for those don't want to fly, etc.

I wasn't really asserting that the two were equal but that it likely will not be viewed as unequal by a layperson. Comparing just these two specific policies, maybe it is, but if you look at China's actions on a large scale, it ch

Huawei and China will have a hard time finding any sympathy here, considering the companies they outright ban or block, or even just cut the legs off. Have any such US companies responded like this? It feels childish/immature to me, pa
