This is the most dystopian thing I've heard about in awhile. It's sad this happened but it's even more sad the judge hasn't been disbarred and charged with assault.

If you are using flutter, dart is statically typed. So your code will run faster on dart. OTOH RN has RN-web. I haven't used either but I get the impression that dart probably looks more android-y and RN probably looks more ios-y. So t

Why don't they make flutter for the web too? It seems like a strange omission.

I hope they rebadge an android phone the way Fairphone has. Signal would only need to make a small profit to keep it sustainable and that would bring down the handset retail cost pretty significantly. It would be like the Raspberry PI of ph

Since Excel is a pure functional programming paradigm, I suppose this will make FP people happy to see FP taken so far without mixing in any imperative constructs. It's the Übermensch of functional 3d engines.

Do you have a mobile phone factory that would be willing to give up their BSP/SDK/ROM source code for a ~$40 android phone? The last time I checked on alibaba no OEM/ODMs were willing to do this yet but it seems like it'

The lawyers did such a bad job. They bungled the litigation. Now it seems like they have endorsed a strategic option (settlement) that was way too risk averse. Alphabet had already won the PR war. They had alot to gain by grinding Uber into

Recently a graphene manufacturing process has been discovered that involved taking sheets of a high carbon wood (elm iirc) and shining a laser at it inside an argon atmosphere to make a surface layer of graphene. When I first heard about it

I think of outsourcing marketing as a competitive process. The goal is to find the marketer that can get you the lowest customer acquisition cost per marketing dollar spent. That is the only thing that matters. So I typically get a group of

Yep, a better approach would have been to enforce a labelling standard for the efficiency of the panels, furthering the cause of commodifying them. Then when the dumpers finally jack up the price (their long term strategy), people just swit
