If my company is any indication, they're going to make more money since everyone will simply check the multi-AZ or multi-region checkboxes they didn't before and throw more money at the problem instead of doing proper resiliency e

From what I can see, many cities are much more open to commercial zones being rezoned to high density mixed-use. There's quite a lot of empty strip malls and big box retailer spaces these days. Nearby businesses don't mind the cha

I've found a laptop cooling pad works wonders, even without the fan on. Just letting ambient air reach the laptop bottom was enough passive cooling to keep the laptop fans off most of the time. But if the bottom of the laptop is touchi

Toyota got a foreshock of the chip shortage during the 2011 earthquake/tsunami/nuclear disaster. So they started stockpiling chips then; from their standard 3-month supply to 6-month supply. They figured that would've been en

Within gaming, there's Unity, Unreal, Crytek, and the like which I would classify as tech, but otherwise, most gaming companies are far more creative-focused much like film.

I'm running the latest developer build and it still has this. It only shows number of cookies by domain and allows deletion by domain, and you'd have to use dev tools if you wanted to look at or delete a single individual cookie.

Google Maps navigation can't even reliably call out which lane to use for turning in major metro areas, and that's kinda the basic best case scenario: clear images/footage, unlimited compute time, static road markers, common

I think it explains why the established automakers don't take any of the aspiring automakers from tech seriously. They know how hard it is to supply, assemble, and mass produce a car, and they know how little investment to desire there

The big one is if you still work for a company that only has Californian offices that requires you to visit for work. That's the leash a lot of tech workers will find hard to break.

It's probably preferable than continuing to use the JVM-clone like it's an OS, while porting Linux to be the actual OS to run their JVM-clone OS.

Having used my PS4's remote play a handful of times to stream play games while I'm on the other side of town using my own unremarkable consumer grade networking on both ends, it can work surprisingly well for many types of games.

Because it's the state right next to Canada with a major tech hub. We can compare NY to Quebec where at $125k/$100k respectively Quebec has a slight tax advantage (33.65%NY vs 32.70%QC) that goes back in favor of NY with +$20k (34

A 90th percentile Canadian in BC would make ~$100k and pay 25.37% to taxes. A 90th percentile American in Washington right across the boarder would make $125k and pay 24.53% to taxes.

Agreed, it's way too easy for most locks to be interesting as a hobby, but to jump to pick-resistant locks is a huge increase in skill that I never made it past. So I just treat it as a useful skill to have in emergencies. I leave a se

I used to scratch my head at who would pay a $500-1000 premium for a Sony when it just uses an LG panel. But after owning an LG for several years now and seeing it get more and more ads with every update, I think the premium on the Sony is

That's not really a problem with electric car manufacturers going forward. There's only going to be two standards: Tesla's proprietary one, and, CCS that everyone else agreed to standardize on.

I wouldn't put much weight on Stellantis' opinion for car tech. They're the furthest behind in both ICE and EV technology and innovations. So of course they're going to resist regulations for better anything.
