So that would be the software companies' liability. And such business practice can differentiate good ones from the bad ones. I'm seeing a new business market here even.

Until Firefox address privacy concerns, I'm not going back. Try opening private tabs and going some where. Now close it and reopen it with Ctrl+Shift+T. All the browsing history is still there. Safaria dna Chrome doesn't do this.

It's interesting they mentioned "...navigating 3D space in VR..." Because this leads me to think that Waymo's driving simations are written in Unity. As oppose to say Uber whose simulation appears to be written in Unreal

There's a public library system that gives everyone in their city the entitlement to do so. There's nothing you can do or say to stop it too. It will be bought once and watched over 100+ times.

You mean like ISPs? Oh wait, it can't. Please stop throwing this impression of Google's invincibility around. You know there are forces that Google can't even come close to defeating.

Have you ever need do a merge from master on your PR in GitHub? Well that workflow is crap because the UI and editor is atrocious. So I welcome any competition to move GitHub to improve that experience.

But Linus is still respected. Maybe not by you and some others but by a lot of people. There's no such thing as unanimous respect.

The average consumer may just buy a smartphone over a PC. The average tech savvy consumer may just build the PC over buying off the shelf ones. In either case most people won't be buying these 28 core chips unless they are reps for ent

For porting maybe, but after the initial framework is released, new apps will just be built with both platforms in mind. Newer versions of UI Kit will probably shift people in the Apple Kit direction and then slowly deprecate all no compati

The dock can have cooling capabilities which is something that haven't been attempted yet. It can be similar to Laptop Cooling Pads. Just like when I put my phone in front of the air ventilation with AC on, it doesn't get hot even

It's only a matter of time for the convergence of phones and Dex like docking functionality. I'm actually surprised Google isn't exploring this area more because it will really kick up the versality of phones. I guess Google

So what I'm getting from this statistic is that in China, if you get old and sick, that's probably the end. In US, if you get old and sick, you might have a few more years. Albeit with lower QoL. I'm actually ok with that.

I know this is an Amazon PR piece but I need to point to their more recent aggressive behavior of growing revenue at the expense of user experience. My grips on their non refundable charges is a great example. Amazon will secretly renew you

For such a privacy minded browser, it still preserves closed tabs in Private Mode. If you do (in OSX) cmd+shift+T, you can reopen the closed tabs from earlier. This does not happen in Chrome nor Safari.

If more people start using GCP, then in the near future, GCP's prices will go up. In contrast, AWS prices may come down to compete with GCP. And when they reach close parity, things will begin to commoditize and get even cheaper across

From experience, a signature in the checkout line usually takes about 5-10 seconds. Removing it may seem like a small negligible change for users, but for retailers, it most likely adds up. Imagine being able to pick up your receipt and lea
