It is not switching from Angular 2+. It truly is still AngularJS. Very different and an incredible leap.

On a single PC it probably wouldn’t matter that much, but if distributed at scale, the savings in bandwidth could be enormous. Electron is quite large after all. Teams shipped with incredibly outdated versions of Electron for a very long ti

Would be interesting how much worse it is if you upgrade in-place. Or is that what this test did? Overlaying SPECTRE etc. mitigations could also provide some insight.

What is the alternative then? How would you have created a new Windows desktop application in 2015? 2018? And yes, since 2012 there were no major changes to WPF. And even these changes were small. The last truly major change came with .NET

Well, yes and no. We can certainly agree that neither WPF nor WinForms are dead . How could they be? There’s simply no alternative. However, they sure aren’t alive either. Development has been stalled for many years and both are very old.

What's wrong with WPF or WinForms? It's not cross-platform, of course. Or is that not sane enough? :-D

Everything. There isn't a single first-party desktop GUI framework left that is actively supported and developed. UWP is of course still available but modern apps have failed. You can still use WPF and WinForms, but they have serious l

If using the self-contained deployment isn't an option then this is the correct solution. I don't see what the problem is. You can't always use the latest and greatest. I often had to use .NET 4.0 because it had to run on som

Sure. However: This is wrong. Pair programming is not always feasible. Pair programming in its many forms is great and all, but not everyone can do it and neither can it be applied to every problem. So again: FORCING people to pair is

What is a “task”? A single unit of work that cannot be reduced further? Forcing multiple people to work on that is just a waste. If it’s about bigger packages like user stories I agree that usually multiple people should work on it in paral

It’s difficult to strike a balance between hysteria and justified skepticism. Especially with topics like electric cars. However, I believe this isn’t really about the environment. It’s about corruption, real or imaginary. People are afraid

Hm that depends on the country though. The local TLD (.us, .fr, .hr, …) would be rather common I’d say. Apart from that, it’s mostly what people browse to, yes. So .com, .net, .org.

I think Yammer takes first place. It's required reading at work (the main feed). It loads incredibly slowly (I think it's like 5 redirects for auth and whatnot) and the default "What's new" view is entirely useless.

Ah but you see, all the core details remained the same since Windows 95. Some from even earlier. Flat buttons, raised buttons, buttons with round corners, they all had the same dimensions, margins, padding. Same goes for all the other detai

I think your problem is that many things don’t have to be a state machine. And you’re right. It’s simply not a good idea to create a confirmation dialog like that. However, some things just _are_ state machines. You don’t usually see them i

No new hardware revision needed. Just a new on-card BIOS requiring a newer driver with a more fine-tuned mining detection. Should be trivial for manufacturers.

It really isn’t subjective. There can only ever be one primary button. Still, it could’ve been a regular gray button, not some text that just happened to be clickable.

Yeah, sure, same here. However, at least in Germany, you have „Unterlassungsanspruch“ (injunctive relief). That means if you lawyer up (often free if have legal protection insurance) you can easily get an injunction against the distribution

Similar in Germany. I do wonder though if that just makes the trash collect elsewhere or if they actually print less spam.

Funny thing is, it still works on my iPhone, but stopped working on my iPad. Strange stuff. Either way, it was a great app and I very much disagree with their reasons for discontinuing it.

Education applications are exempt from this policy. They are allowed to execute code that did not come in the bundle, provided the user can fully edit it. What is an education app? Well, that is up to Apple.

I don't see how they compete. Tailwind CSS is all utilities. Bootstrap offers components. It also has utilities, yes, but those aren't really the main offering. Tailwind UI is not free.

The same way lane assist worked before: using the actuator that is already present in virtually all modern cars for the power steering system. You can easily fight against it by holding the steering wheel.

Ah, indeed. I always thought this was not possible due to silly security requirements. Could’ve sworn this wasn’t possible back on my old iPhone 7.
