Salt Lake City is a 4.5-5 hour drive from Boise. If you want a better example, there are no cities in Texas in the list, and Chicago is a lot further away than Boise is from Salt Lake City!

It would not remotely surprise me to discover that either Google or Samsung were doing something untoward that Apple is not willing to do. In fact, that would be one of the least surprising things I'd ever heard.

I find this semi-often, and typically just write a fixed-output derivation to pull down the vendor- or project-offered binary. I do use `nix-homebrew` for macOS apps though.

This would be an excellent outcome overall. If C# had sum types and exhaustive pattern matching, it would be a great language with top notch tooling (largely thanks to JetBrains, to be fair).

What you’re describing is how it _should_ work. Instead every server feels entitled to 20% regardless of how bad their service is and it is frequently atrocious. Besides, I’d rather have efficient and impersonal than (at best) fake nice.

I doubt it. Navigating the Paris Metro (or the London Underground) with a _suitcase_ is a shit show - even in relatively new stations. Whoever decided to put stairs in St Pancras with only a lift as an alternative should be condemned to ste

Likely no dependency hell in pip or npm. Likely fast and well thought out. Not sure fire things, but given the choice between a program written in Rust (or Go) vs one written in JavaScript or (especially) Python, the former two win every ti

London Taxis have been configured this way since at least the 1950s and people don't seem to have any problem with it?

Interestingly Vegas is the only place I will use a cab over Uber or Lyft or (preferably) Waymo. Using the Curb app to pay electronically you avoid most of the BS with cash and "their card machine being broken", and once you'v

We don't need to imagine, it was actually the case not that long ago, and for the most part still is. The MO of corporations is to just bend over when a Microsoft rep walks into the room.

Homeschooling (in particular) has a bimodal distribution of outcomes depending on the reasons the parents do it.

I don't know if "how to pray" is covered, but Texas passed legislation requiring the display of the Ten Commandments in public schools.

The complication is not physically how to do it, but that the timing is not arranged to line up well, resulting in excessive waits.

Why does the hardware refresh schedule matter? What you appear to be referring to is the _operating system_ refresh schedule, which should be every year even at enterprises where corporate IT is problematic.
