It baffles me how German manufacturers continue to put more and more models on the market each year. VW for example is actively offering more than 30 different base models right now, each with 4-6 additional variations. Plus new updates and

From a technical point of view, i think all the big German manufacturers are perfectly capable of building full EV models. It's not technology that is stoping them. It's the stale, inflexible, slow moving corporate culture that co

That is what they seem to be doing, so yes. Generally speaking, if it has a all-intel (CPU, GPU, WiFi) chipset, chances are it will work with OSX.

How on earth does a shady, newly founded company with a handful of people manage to hire 8(!) H-1B workers from China? I really feel bad for those workers. Essentially they are obeying coding slaves for the company until they eventually get

I prefer Python over Ruby as a language, but you are correct gem ist superior to pip. Take a look at "pip-tools" if you haven't already, it eases some of the pain. For web-dev Rails is more stable, more modern and has better

Would you consider it difficult to pass? Are there any numbers what the failure rate is? Just for comparison, here in Germany, you have to take a 14 hours of theory lessons and then do a theoretical test (which has a 25%+ failure rate). Onc

This. Or any other product for that matter. I understand that all organisations with a certain size tend to develop some sort of silly politics and bureaucratic workflows. But Mozilla seams to have a awful lot of nonsense going on in the la

I do see the Nvidia dual-graphics chip causing problems on Linux. They should have dropped the Nvidia chip all the way, it is a shitty compromise. Nobody is going to play games on this machine and the Intel IGP handles all other workloads j
