Is it just me, or does the writer need to learn how to properly weave sarcasm into a story? I found it hard to read, for some reason. And really, he was able to learn that much from one code review? That the guy keeps to himself, is competi

Someone just had a soapbox moment. Anyway, from my personal experience, my personal wealth rate of change was definitely negatively affected by the housing market, due to increase in valuations, which turned into a significant increase in r

I use it as well, the UI is a little cheesy and windows XPish (at least to my eyes). Maybe there is a technical limitation preventing it from inheriting the browser theme. But so far, it's worked ok.

I thought cnn was already free to stream on networks such as plutotv. ( https://pluto.tv/en/live-tv/cnn ). I don’t know if it is a full stream or highlights though, since I never actually watched it. I use Pluto mos

The advice on typography may have been good, but it was an even better example on how NOT to implement web navigation.

The problem is, you are only "this" far away from Apple engineers and third parties perusing your private photos due to a photo that triggers false positives.

Our family was like that. We had every single device version up to iPhone 11. Then Apple bent to the will of the Chinese government and removed apps used by HK protesters. I don't live in Hong Kong, and I'm not affected, but it wa

Depending on the code, it can be freaking hard to track down what that 'i' means, especially when someone writes a coding standard (or a language) where it requires all variables to be defined at the beginning of the function inst

I like colourlovers.com as well. Feels more organic, less engineered. And those palettes are easier to use, since they are reduced down to a theme, rather than having a 20 color palette with no overarching theme. That is just me speaking as

I have a few requirements when I choose my distro: 1. Ubuntu based, since I know where everything is. I don't mean to knock other great distros like Arch, etc.. but I'd rather do my stuff than try to figure out another package man

That article doesn't even pass the standards of a college newspaper. "Windows 10 is no more secure than Windows 7 — which is to say it is a profoundly insecure operating system. " You are going to back up your statement with

Opened 3 years ago. And I would argue forcing a light FF theme while using a dark GTK theme is not a "fix". Oh, and, why doesn't it "just work"?

Apparently they still didn't fix the issue with edit boxes and dark themes on linux. There are two things that keep me on Chromium - that, and the ability to appify a website.

I am not sure where it's established that Stonehenge was built by hunters/gatherers. But if it is true, it would be pretty impressive, given the absence of long distance communication and a low population density per mile (you nee

But the amount of resources required to build that type of structure is not present in a H&G society. Those societies tend to be small groups. Quarrying large stones requires a lot of resources, which is only present in a settled societ

What proof is there that they were hunter and gatherers (aside from an assumption based on timeline)? Isn't building an extensive permanent structure a signature of settled people?
