   Because anyone who is smart or has competent security teams have been looking to drop them like a sack of potatoes. I work with a ton of customers that have/had SolarWinds and the general sentiment with them is that they are ripping it

   Anyone who is talking about how much of a loss this is means they haven't been to a Frys in the last 3 or 4 years. I have fond memories of them from 95-05, but this is literally a textbook case of a business that got ran into the groun

   I absolutely love it when people talk about failures, it is so nice to be able to learn about stuff without having to make the mistake myself.

   Sounds like no amount of evidence will convince you, even with evidence that contradicts your opinion. The stuff you are talking about was the strategy for most big software vendors in the 90's/early 2000's. They sold softw

   You act as though Open Source is somehow mutually exclusive with profits and a sustainable business. > Otherwise, it's like "free" google products; here today, gone tomorrow. Respectfully, I disagree... google products are

   Microsoft is a completely different company than it was even just 5 or 10 years ago. Saying that MS is an enemy of open source is uninformed at best and idiotic at worse. Do me a favor, look at Facebook [1], Apple [2], Amazon [3], Netflix [

   This also looks like they are comparing running Windows versions of software to the OSX version of the software on M1. So there are 2 MAJOR variables, which they combined... performance of OSX vs Windows and performance of M1 vs i7. IMHO th

   Core modules are a bit better laid out, meaning you will have a more unified experience across different dev boards. Additionally, there are more boards that appear to be supported, but don't quote me on it. Things like os/time&#x

   While yes, its forked from MicroPython, saying it is just rebranded is almost like saying Ubuntu is just rebranded Debian. The biggest difference is how they handle core modules... rather than having a per-port/board they have a common

    <3 That will be awesome. You could almost have it as a Download w/ caret dropdown for SVG, PNG, ... and then have a Copy, with options of SVG, or Icon class like for example if they do it as a font/class.

    Can you add a Copy SVG button to them? HeroIcons [1] has this and I didn't know what I was missing until I started using it. I can basically just copy and paste directly into html pages rather than download the icon and either view the

    Also, with tech companies... growth is such a huge part of valuation and business plan that they will focus on acquiring new customers rather than retaining existing ones. If you are growing 5-10% quarter over quarter, loosing the 2.5% isn&

    Because they didn't have nearly the developed economy that they do now? They probably also didn't have as much influence and maybe weren't really seen as a regional player?

    There is a HUGE difference between doing analytics/business intelligence (albeit a bit of a sketchy app, though users consented) and directly hacking into competitors with the express intent on stealing IP, which is more of the issue

    They most definitely are not available to the public. For example, all the Apple documentation on board layouts are literally stolen and smuggled out. In fact, many of the large companies have exclusive agreements with OEM chip manufacturer

    Not sure if you know this or not, but I assume you aren't willingly misrepresenting the situation. People will ship GENUINE/ORIGINAL apple parts, with lets say a cracked piece of glass, but otherwise good screen assembly, back t

    Average IT spend runs between 2 and 5% of revenue for fortune 500s. For reference... GM makes 166 billion/year in revenue, and on the low end their IT spend is probably more than 2 billion/year. In 2004 they were making the news
