Try Pluto TV, their content isn’t as good as the paid offerings but I love the mindless channel surfing experience.

Other researchers don’t have free access to the same data, so their own research is industry leading by default :) Anyway, the term is intended to be used as PR to appeal to the media, I assume, than to be really accurate.

GPS trackers with LTE radios have battery limitations. AirTags are only communicating with local iPhones so they can be smaller and last longer.

And to complete their viewpoint, it is the legislature’s job to patch “exploits” by rewriting the code (laws).

This probably explains why only 5M doses of J&J vaccine were allocated for the week of April 5 as opposed to the 11+M that were anticipated. Emergent was also supposed to be approved to ramp up the full supply chain but that hasn’t hap

This is not true, you can set your host to trust a self signed certificate without much difficulty. Check out this tool for example https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert (prev discussion at https://news.ycom

No, that's not how subsets work. If a subset of features that is part of "full self driving" cannot ever reach level 4/5, then "full self driving" is not possible. "full" is a marketing terminology bu

It depends on your role. Many people regularly maintain or interact with prod deployments which cannot be customized to your liking. So it may be "somewhere" or occasional in your case but not in all cases. Switching back and for

All of the above are suitable for deployment on your cloud servers but not as distribution mechanisms to end users. End users cannot set up virtual envs and pip install stuff into them (which sometimes needs external tools like make). The c

Agree the UX is poor but I prefer this because there are tradeoffs involved in some of these choices. Auto filling, for example, caused a bunch of critical bugs with LastPass. As an extension, there’s always going to be limitations that I’d

On that note, this feature - https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-iOS/issues/1567 - to allow bulk saving of media to iOS photos also hasn’t been addressed. Whatsapp allows media from specific chats to be aut

It doesn’t need to tell them apart individually, just high level demographics or geography are already useful. If your website suddenly got 99% of traffic from Tibet (random example), you would probably discount those impressions/click

The counter point from an application developer point of view is that it requires a lot of resources to distribute an application across the many Linux distros. Given it is just one of the 3 major desktop operating systems an application is

Does the process use "chicken stem cells" or presumably cells from eggs as the input to the reaction? Wonder what is the ratio of stem cells to nutrients to make this chicken? For economic feasibility, I would guess it needs to be

It was a persuasive documentary but I felt it conflates two issues which happened together - the rise of mobile phones and the rise of social media. The rise of smartphones has an important role in making social media more addictive. Some p

You can’t keep looking at everything through the narrow definition of local choice. By that count, no anti trust action was necessary against Microsoft - users were always free to install Netscape. Comcast does not stop users from laying fi

Don’t think it can be an MCU box. You can select an individual stream from the grid to make it larger almost instantly. The individual feeds can display both as grid and a horizontal row. I’m assuming they send individual feeds and the clie

Afaik, Postgres flavored Aurora has a single master for writes and doesn't allow horizontally scaling writes[1]. I believe reads can scale by bringing up multiple read replicas. Cockroach DB is "distributed SQL" so writes are

Common sense says that any kind of barrier between cough or sneeze droplets and my nose or mouth will reduce the probability of me breathing it in. I could tie a scarf around my mouth. It may not be perfect but even if it reduces transmissi

Mask shortage is a red herring. I can tie a bandana or a scarf around my mouth. If it reduces my chances of breathing in a cough droplet by even 5%, that’s great. Why not?
