Compared to the office buildings leaving their entire office illuminated all night even though the parking lot is empty, this is less than miniscule. In the grand scheme of things, yes, it matters. But start with the big fish and you'l

I work for a tech company (healthcare related, but everything is tech), and we have staff positions. They're mostly meant as someone who has a decent understanding of the entire system they're working on... even have Staff Archite

I just tried this myself and can't replicate on a 2019 i7 running Big Sur. I wonder if it's related to the number of Wifi networks in range (mine is the only one)... Also, the Apple Maps thing didn't seem to change anything f

I came here looking for this comment; it seems prototype is always forgotten about as part of the "before frameworks" discussion. I remember bringing up using prototype to my coworkers in 2006/2007 (the director was a stickle

With the advent of streaming music as popular as it is (and surely Apple had to see that becoming the trend), this seems largely like a non-issue from a storage perspective. In fact, it's really only costing Apple more money in bandwid

Microsoft was forced around Internet Explorer not "just" because theirs was pre-installed. It was more that Internet Explorer had become so baked in to the system that it literally could not be removed without breaking Windows. T

I remember setting up AudioGalaxy on my home machine and using their UI so that I could download stuff "from work" and have it available when I got home. It was great for my use!

Do I want to know how they get mice with severe spinal cord injuries to test on? I'm guessing it's exactly what I think it is, but I'm wondering if there's another way that it happens.

I had an AWS manager reach out to me last year to discuss working some Rust related stuff (and they knew that my Rust experience was very limited even before reaching out to me). They decided after an interview or two not to go ahead with

I haven't played Factorio, so maybe I'm missing something... but if you don't have buffers and suddenly whatever that produces something essentially goes away, what happens to all your just in time pieces? Seems pretty certai

Unless there's a way to share the files from Windows in to WSL, then I can't do that. We need to be able to edit the files from within Windows (people want their VSCode/Sublime Text/Notepad++). I've tried to tell th

Recently we've been suggested to stop using Docker, so I've been on the lookout for alternatives. One of the biggest problems we have is that some of our in-house tooling is written with Windows as an afterthought, and so it'

One of my coworkers uses datagrip. Needing to install mysql specific tooling so that they can take a full database dump is kind of frustrating. Many other tools can do it out of the box, why not datagrip?

Until you think about people that have devices that don't use headphone ports, or don't have bluetooth on their phones (both, IIRC, are very small counts, but potentially a problem). Not to mention if you're sharing headsets

It seems that the MapMetrics data mentioned either isn't available everywhere or (less likely) their site is being crushed. The data only loads for California and Colorado.

Looking at the code I can't see why it wouldn't work. It's an extra || condition. Can someone enlighten me?

If his team is anything like the one I work for, the backlog isn't prioritized until the day before the sprint starts... something we're trying to change, but still a long way away from.

In the post or comments, they claimed using canary; perhaps their canary simply didn't die in the coalmine?

A previous job had several Herman Miller Embody's and several Sayl's. The Embody was honestly an amazing chair. Plenty of adjustments, and the back would "move" with you if you twisted against it. I miss that chair.
