Considering that preorders just started last week and it goes on sale tomorrow, I doubt it had much of an impact. More will probably show up next quarter. I'd guess that less 8 and 8 Plus were sold due to people waiting on X. That'

IMO the difference in the quantity and quality of packages available for React more than makes up for that difference.

A more interesting debate for me would be the strengths and weaknesses of gradual/external typing systems like TypeScript/Flow and MyPy vs something like clojure.spec. Especially since there are still dynamic languages like Ruby t

My understanding is that it wasn't working particularly well anyways. The concept may have been ahead of it's time.

That it's essentially legal for "the intelligence community" to do this sort of thing is insane.

I wish I could actually take advantage of the great stuff they're doing, but it's still just too unstable and I have issues on too many websites. Every time I try to use Edge I end up switching back to Chrome within a week.

People believing it did is probably even more damaging than the ads themselves. Undermining confidence in our democracy == undermining our democracy.

Yes, but way less. Turbolinks in particular basically just requires you to add the library, which is very lightweight, and then you get page changes without the bad visuals of the whole screen flashing white, and it's not too difficult

Even the full page loads aren't necessary with Turbolinks or PJAX. If I had a choice, thats definitely what I'd be using for what I'm working on now at an ecommerce company. But the boss insists on microservices, and the once

It was just made up BS. An ex-MI6 guy was paid through Fusion GPS to make it, nothing in it was verified, and the news ran with it like crazy anyways. Fusion GPS has gone after people with basically slanderous claims in the past too. They a

This looks pretty awesome. I haven't used JavaFX before, but if it's easy enough to deliver high quality UX with it, I'll be using this for any side project desktop apps I end up working on.

I'm using JetBrains IDEs now instead. They're definitely not lightweight, but it's built in functionality is generally a lot more stable than what I get with text editors + a lot of plugins.

It's not a small gain for me, it's basically a necessity for keeping RAM low enough. I have 16GB on my work machine, and that's barely enough.

Agreed. Even if I were going to spend that much on a car, it wouldn't be this car at that price point. I got a lightly used Fiesta ST for around $15k, and I'm very happy with it and probably wouldn't even want the Bolt for th

I don't even know if it was that, honestly. I think the whole Waymo thing had more to do with it, or it would have happened sooner.

The article specifically portrays women as less superficial, which OP was saying didn't match personal experiences (in America) but that it could be because it was done in the UK. Cultural differences could definitely cause something l

Yeah...based on what I've actually seen in studies about this topic before that weren't Tinder specific, there's essentially no chance that this is true.

You could blame them as well, it's just a lot less relevant to the U.S. smartphone market (where iPhone has the highest market share AFAIK) since everyone is on Snapdragon here. As for Qualcomm and Apple being on different release cycl

Unfortunately there's a lot of software that only runs on nvidia GPUs (anything that depends on CUDA, including tensorflow), so some of us really don't have a choice at the moment.

Older devices are probably on much older kernels that most distros stopped using a long time ago. It's not really practical to try and bridge that gap.

If they only used it in their own devices, it would probably be too expensive. If they sold those devices to other manufacturers, they could probably get enough volume to at least avoid taking big losses. It's less about making money f

Maybe Google should start designing it's own CPUs/SoCs as well, since Qualcomm doesn't really seem capable of keeping up with what Apple is doing. Snapdragon 835 came out 6 months after the A10, and scored about 2/3 as w
