Well, if you want to have your social network app preinstalled on a lot of phones, I guess there's either paying for it or offering up your users. iPhone doesn't have it preinstalled, no, but if memory serves, there were integrati

Far be it from me to question the distrust, but I'd say in recent years, since around the time they started open sourcing ASP.NET a while back, they've been pretty decent. I mean, some people dislike Windows for various reasons, b

Since the Core era, not all .NET applications are built for Windows either. Considering you bring up the second part, it makes me wonder if maybe outside of the obvious (owning GitHub), perhaps they're after the extra talent to bolster

Are you talking about the LinusTechTips guy? I watched the recent video where he was using Optane and the results didn't seem like a major competitor to RAM unless I was misjudging it. Of course, it could be in that 1:1 RAM wins out, b

This is the worst GDPR or whatever implementation I’ve seen yet on mobile where the button to accept (I assume it is to accept) renders under (depth) the fixed social buttons at the bottom. And the modal is fixed, too, so no matter of scrol

If he's discussing with his group of friends behind closed doors either at the White House, a dinner, or the like, there is no expectation that he must share it publicly (but there's the possibility of leaks). If he does so on a p

He should probably talk about Rocket Man, directions he intends to take, and new agendas via @POTUS then. But the thing is, though, he never will beyond boiler plate stuff that most likely someone else is posting for him. Reason being is th

I hope they do something with it though. Whether sell it to someone who can be a good caretaker to it, share lessons and designs with other companies that could then build upon it, spinning it off, whatever they choose. Just abandoning it o

@PurbleBoxDragon - that seems more of a case that the government is leveraging a platform for purposes they should not. That isn't Twitter's fault.

there are requirements government officials must honor in the Constitution due to their role, a judge can force them to honor it. a judge doesn't have the capability, however, to force a private entity unrelated to the government to ho

In the modern era, people bemoan that officials are extra protective of quarterbacks relative to previous generations due to and specifically for Tom Brady. Common refrain, right? But the thing is: they still watch. Yeah, there'd be ca

Racing is the closest, but with climbing and endurance, you're battling the environment and yourself. In football, the person going after you provides a factor you really can't plan for.

Anecdotal, but from what I've heard it tends to be that at the high school and earlier levels hitting is done in a more chaotic manner. Yes, they're not 300-plus pound athletes hitting people, but seems that even in the earlier st

Valid points, but it doesn’t appear like you’re forced to allow scripts out of sequence. I was using the Obamacare one and everything flowed okay. Not something I’d leverage per se, but not bad.

So I like this concept based off what I can see (basically like a RSA or similar w/o the generated token, or rather having to enter said token manually). Question: Microsoft was pushing hard that they're going towards passwordless

> ten paid downloads equates to an album download. But it gets fuzzy here. If the album has 10 tracks, it makes sense, but for ones with less than that or more than that, it doesn't hash out. I'm just saying for these kind of m

per the comments section, it appears that the engineer is open sourcing or maybe has already open sourced (discussion was 6 months ago) their testing setup so perhaps someone can check his work? Maybe the lack of notice of investment should

At this stage, I think as far as for metrics of this nature, it is time to stop quantifying album streams and focus on streams of tracks within the albums (in the example you gave, someone streaming the entire album should count 20x). I, my

Can't speak to the greying as I have no part in that. That said, while I agree to a point, to me, adware is where ads are being served that are impacting the UI proper. Because of where it happens, apparently in a new tab/window,

This is kind of depressing. Per the stats here if I'm reading it correctly, it appears WD Red disks have pretty high failure rates relative to competitors and that is what I've been buying to put in my NAS. Why is there such a gen

But if the US units went away, you wouldn’t have to worry about those conversions once everything “legacy” was handled. And even then, it wouldn’t require knowledge of both systems beyond having a calculator for the conversions to get them
