think that's the norm, really. Usually it is more a rubber stamping formality (Russia / Trump's US-to-Russia diplomat pick), but I imagine a country could reject a diplomat, especially if said the host country has a previous

I saw a more detailed article a bit ago on it and it said that Ecuador gave him citizenship on December 12th and then sent a request on December 20th for the UK to treat Assange as an Ecuadorian diplomat and all of the protections that enta

I'm looking at the contributors in crystal-lang/crystal and I don't see "tbrand" there. That said, the repositories they do create seem predominantly crystal related, so they're certainly a user of it.

didn't know about that one, thanks. Seems there are different ways to go about it with this being less steps than the tap up, tap down, hold lock I've been using and doesn't interfere with screenshot.

I imagine it is like anything else: they don't know, but if they do an audit or another agency is investigating you for something else and they notice, then they start investigating it. I do think it is fair to say that there are more

to emodendroket's point, I recall reading an article that in the previous year (2016) that the IRS stated that very few people were claiming bitcoins in their taxes. I'm not versed on cryptocurrencies so I don't know how plau

well, as a developer they're giving you additional hardware to develop against so there's that case. But I think from the business standpoint, it probably doesn't make sense to have specific configurations for DE when being a

I'm confused in the color options. I went with the top spec one, Silver is only option. I go back to New XPS 13 (non-developer) and go top spec again. Silver and Rose Gold available. What happened to black/carbon fiber? Is it just

The biggest issue I've seen personally was when a vendor we were using would append query strings to filter data. On the second filter add, it would just break in Internet Explorer, but Chrome and I think Firefox would work fine. Com

for me, volume up + lock button typically fires off a screenshot even if unintended. I use tap volume up -> tap volume down -> hold lock button.

All in all, I'm pleased with the phone. There are some things that are pretty rough, though, and that compensating for the removal of the home button has caused a glaring problem. Shutdown being the biggest one so far for me. The Konam

I hear you. I upgraded my iPhone 6 Plus to the iPhone X due to how laggy my device had become. Siri was slow now (to the point that it began to provide little/no benefit over manual), navigation became slow, etc. I do wish they'd

while that first part is most likely true where competition is concerned, once you get outside of the bigger cities, you run into cases where you have one, maybe two, competitors in the space that will service your area. I'm not saying

Isn't that to your benefit though? There are tons of companies that are going to do certain things you aren't going to be a fan of. Isn't it better to find out they're not that into mature platforms and prefer the latest

I know this is probably more of a shared bad behavior situation, it really frustrates me as Google did more or less the same thing against Microsoft. Dunno, feels like if they could silo their services away from every other platform at this

While I agree with your main point, I find it odd that you'd even factor in the non-LTS/bleeding edge releases of Ubuntu vs Windows (10). The closest I can think of in the Windows world would be Windows Insider builds but those ar

I think you both are right: historically, Vudu was a bit of a mess to use, but eventually it became pretty good/decent. However, if you had that initial clunky experience, you may've never come back to find out that it is okay now
