I love D3 but my biggest complaint is that many of the examples floating around appear to have been coded by people who don't care about reusability (and in some cases, ability for others to understand the code). Nowadays if I need to

It’s also like looking at the iPhone in 2007 and saying Nokia can do x/y/z to keep the upstart out. Fact is, mis-placed corporate focus and the sense of superiority kicks these companies off top spot. Intel, as it stands this minu

I'd point out it was deployed to iPhones - devices where the underlying physical disk won't get smaller so this bug would not have appeared. iOS devices are extremely constrained in a number of ways that MacOS isn't - who kno

So if enough automated miners hit Packet.net's spot market does that mean that it'll take the cheap supply away so that non-miners will be competing for cost-effective instances?

If the MBP without TouchBar that they are currently selling came with the same SSD/CPU options and 32Gb of RAM I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I also know I'm far from alone in that. Argument #2 is parrotting what Apple said. Lap

So sorry, my experience with Apple from 2004 until Sierra was totally positive - hardware and software. I'm sure Apple will be rectifying this 'dropped ball' moment soon and I pray they'll learn from it.

- Being a finite resource, control would seemingly belong to whoever holds the largest amount. The point isn't that the ordinary citizen is going to control it, it is that whatever quantity you have is fixed and can't be debased.

Yea but a case like this doesn't need high-powered lawyers. Usually a high-street solicitor will write a letter outlining what's happened, objecting to the legal threat and asking for information on how to return the merchandise.
