I have that omnibus edition. Bought it for my then newborn daughter when it came out (and have them all in eBook format as well), but have yet to convince her to read it, or The Hobbit. It is available as an eBook in the UK for a ridiculous

At one of my previous companies we made a moderately popular mobile app SDK that app developers would embed in their apps. We were approached by a company that claimed they had a MIT developed (or was it Bell Labs?) audio recognition techno

My little brother had one, circa 1985. I don't think the educational content was all that great, compared to our Apple II+.

A good way to accuse a widow of murder by poison, since the poison was undetectable and unfalsifiable by the feeble forensics of the day, and get hold of the inheritance.

Yes, an OpenSolaris fork. I thought that was the "it" you were referring to, as that was what the parent was talking about. There are quite a few AOSP forks, like LineageOS and GrapheneOS to cite the most famous ones, but with thi

I moved from the US to the UK. I ported my US mobile number to Twilio, but that service is incredibly unreliable even for basic things like forwarding a call or a SMS. I had another number on Google Voice, and moved all my US accounts to it

The DOJ's proposed remedy is structural separation, which is really the only way to prevent malicious compliance. I'm actually surprised they went for it, given how thoroughly neutered American antitrust has become under assault f
