What you describe is called defensive driving, and it should be front-of-mind for everyone who gets behind the wheel. My family always said about all the assholes on the road, you might be in the right, but you'll be dead right.

I don't know how you draw the conclusion that Reddit is all gaming and gaming-adjacent unless you dilute the definition of "gaming-adjacent" past all meaning. There's never been greater diversity in defiance of the gamer

Personally, I find it more helpful to move the locus of control inwards and teach myself how to be productive in a diversity of circumstances. In this case, that would mean being more intentional about how I use Slack, and managing others’

Braze bundles uninstall tracking with marketing push notification campaigns. Frankly, I think it's wonderful to be able to show marketing people how their spam affects our install base.

I find inescapable the conclusion that Bloomberg was a patsy in all this, somehow. Their story is panning out to be a more and more bald-faced lie by the day, and the accusations they made weren't exactly quiet or ignorable either. I a

We had eMacs, each with an Apple "Mighty" Mouse (yes they really called them that at first). I eventually figured out that you could map anything you wanted to the scroll ball click in the Mouse preferences pane, and it subverted

If you're really interested in owning your own content, it's never been easier to spin up a site. What all these Twitter clones appear to actually be is political statements against the social media machine that miss the point ent

Am I missing something or is this like exactly the same as the Hero 6, just with a new number? EDIT: By my eyes it looks like they improved the stabilization algorithm and added live streaming? Still though, pretty light release. I was hopi

Yes, every feature is a marketing consideration. Marketing involves everything about how your potential and existing customers view your products, and privacy is a huge subject of interest. That being said, there's nothing wrong with

Video of the Barclays elevator in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rm19yMKVqOs Amazing how you can be totally unaware of so much neat engineering going on literally beneath your feet.

Yes, I read the article. I'm wondering how they catch those new to the game, how that record gets started. If you're telling me that all they need to do is rotate out the cast, sounds pretty simple, but I naturally doubt that it

Great read, two things I found interesting: 1. The whole mental gymnastics of tournaments’ attempts to depict courtsiding as illegal, it feels reminiscent of many moral outrage arguments these days. It’s not enough to say that a certain beh

How many people in the US can actually prove their citizenship after their birth certificate is deemed invalid and torn up? Especially if you weren’t born in a hospital. I’d wager not many, regardless of how far from the border you are.

Indeed, the article complains about names 'just being made up' but fails to provide any evidence of that actually happening. Instead, all the other odd names they call out actually originated somewhere in the community, albeit per

This is only happening to charter because it was a clause written into their recent large merger with TWC. I don't think the state would have such broad latitude to revoke any other ISPs license to operate. Verizon was at least smarter

Good. This was a flagrant and deliberate violation. To argue Apple is overstepping here is to suggest Apple employees are exempt from the law.

The only level of private API use that Apple will accept is 'none', so this question is at best immaterial. All of the private API use needs to be removed.

I'm guessing you're objecting to my questioning of the pomodoro technique, based on your mention of flow state. To me, it's pretty obvious that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to productivity. There's plenty o

I agree and have the same feelings, but there should at least be an option for people who don’t want to prioritize size over performance. Apple is the worlds biggest company, they can do better than ‘one size fits all’. Yes, that mantra is
