My mum is in her late 70s and can type faster than anybody I've ever seen. No idea how to use a computer, though.

IIRC you could do something similar with Action Replay, you would load into the Action Replay UI, swap out the disc and then boot into a pirated game

Why do I feel like the author was the employee in question?

Awesome work, I'd love to be able to dual boot Windows on my M1 machine Hopefully Microsoft just hires you and gives you the resources you need to do this properly

I have the M1 13” Pro, honestly I love it. 13” is the perfect size of laptop IMO, the battery life is insane, the performance is great, the screen is good enough for me (I don’t care about higher refresh rates etc) If the M2 is just more of

Try Northern Ireland :) Why? * Anybody from Northern Ireland is entitles to both UK and Irish passports, meaning they can live and work in both the UK and EU * Booming tech industry, 3 Universities all with a strong focus on tech * Can trad

I’m working with ionic at the moment on an Angular app, it’s brilliant

In the UK, there is no shortage of work for Angular contractors. Enterprise and Government are particularly keen on it.

Overtime is fine if it's optional, but the line: > This is less than we ask of factory workers Implies it's maybe not so optional
432.
by jmkni 4y ago
I think that part is fair enough. But reading between the lines, factory workers are expected to do more than 40 hours a week? That's less fair.

I worry about putting people like this under the spotlight, especially if their mental health might not be the best.

Wouldn't they be more likely to vote for the pro-United Ireland party? If they don't vote, then they are content with how things are, no?

by jmkni 4y ago
That's changing, there's a growing number of people who identify as 'Northern Irish', as opposed to Irish/British. I would argue that we do have our own identity, Northern Irish culture/sense of humour/foo

Well only 60% of the population actually voted, so arguably ~50% of those who took the time to vote.

That's incorrect. We just had an election, 35/90 assembly seats went to Nationalist (NI should not exist) candidates, the rest went either to Unionist (NI should remain part of the UK) or 'Other' (there are more importan

Agreed, needs a big disclaimer at the top imo

Stupid question, but could this guy end up in some sort of legal trouble? He's obviously a hero and saved the lives of everyone on board, but it's still illegal to fly a plane while unqualified, right?

Microsoft entirely remade Goldeneye for the XBOX 360 and had to can it for this exact reason

Maybe this is different based on where you are, I'm in the UK and get emailed about different Angular contracts every few days, it's in use everywhere here.

Interesting article, but weird that it basically ignores Angular2+, it's only mentioned once: > and rewriting them entirely, like Angular did with Angular 2, killed a ton of their community’s momentum. I don't think this is acc

I don't think banning them is the right move, but making it easy to clearly identify who is a real human and who is a robot/fake account would improve things a lot imo I think there is value in robots on Twitter, and there is valu

I have my own domain and a catch-all setup, so when I sign up for a service, it's the-service-name@my-domain-name.com, if I give someone my email address, it's their-name@my-domain-name.com It makes it easy for me to keep track of

Similar to the date filtering, you used to be able to see results between two dates, this doesn't seem to work at all anymore. As an example, if I search for 'gilbert gottfried' and set the date filter 1 apr -> 3 apr, I st

I think Twitter's CEO summed it up well, and I agree: > He’s both a passionate believer and intense critic of the service which is exactly what we need on @Twitter, and in the boardroom, to make us stronger in the long-term. Welcome

The really stupid part is that the new Edge is actually great. Letting people figure that out for themselves word spread organically would be more effective than trying to shove it down everyone’s throats.
