   Maybe they should do a startup that offers apologies for screwing up fundamentals of a business project instead. That seems to be the tangible thing they can deliver.

   There is no way to do any kind of science without putting trust in people. Science is not the universe as it is presented. Science is the human interpretation of observation. People are who carry out and interpret experiments. There is

   The update is in your favor. If it were the other way around you'd want to start a class action suit. (I am assuming you're not an arbitration lawyer that priced themselves out of the market)

   CNN has been in decline since they started. ca 2000 their content was a shocking amount of what we call clickbait now with the wording and often misrepresentation we've come to expect. They've surprisingly improved but I abandon

   I don't understand what I'm supposed to take from this. Someone committed a useless comment?

   Yes, that's my understanding and why I asked. I disagree about "in this context", though, which is a pitch. If I was going to buy hardware that claimed ns resolution for something I was building I would expect 1ns resolutio

   Can someone explain how this achieves nanosecond resolution? That's an extremely difficult target to reach on computing hardware due to inherent clock resolutions and interrupt timing.

   If you think the GDPR is enforceable in the US you should let the surveillance capitalism industry know. You won't have to report back when you're done. We'll hear the laughing.

    I don't think you read the article at all. The order was explicitly only for Argentinians.

    Yes. They proactively do this if you try to sideload versions of "official" apps they won't want you to use https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/09/android-now-allows-a...

    You are aware the United States laws do not extend outside its jurisdiction? Why do you believe 4th amendment protections are enforceable in Argentina?

    Docker Desktop has different and obnoxious licensing requirements. If you are using Desktop and are unaware of them, you absolutely should be especially if you work for any company of meaningful size.

    Yeah, to be fair Gandi was excellent until the buyout. That free email was such a nice perk

    porkbun is good and I felt much the same way until I started working with them. I've also heard good things about AWS Route 53

    porkbun is still a classic "good" company of "we just want to do this one thing and only this one thing and it's clear what you're getting"

    gandi has steadily been moving to unusable pickpocketing since they were bought out by Total Webhosting Solutions, which immediately did the standard venture capital thing of charging the maximum for everything possible and burn any amount

    I'm not sure how you can expect an answer or even meaningful discussion when you don't specify any parameters on what anything you're asking about means. What does "good" mean? What does "productivity" &q

    Any research should be taken seriously based on the facts and methods within the research. If you can't do that yourself you need to become sufficiently educated to evaluate it yourself or identify someone who can and ask them to do i

    I'm sure they're saving that one for the version of Windows that is actually just Teams + Cortana

    I'm confused by your question because this isn't anything new. They just renamed the old Remote Desktop App which was already available for alternate platforms like MacOS. I don't see how that changes anything for developer

    by drpossum 2y ago

    It is not "new". In the Mac space it was called "Microsoft Remote Desktop Client" and that client had messages saying it was going to be renamed in the near future for the last few weeks. It's just largely a UI fa
