I would agree if they only ask once, but on a lot of apps nowadays it's a daily or weekly occurrence. That's annoying. If I already said that I do not wish to rate/review your app, don't ask again.

The same thing is happening here in Austin. Developers are buying up older properties, demolishing them, and then splitting the lot into 2 or 3 sections and building smaller "modern" homes/condos.

Has anyone come out with a reason for the size? I mean they seem to reuse a lot of the same textures throughout the game so I have a hard time understanding how it managed to swell to that.

I bought my device. I own it outright. It should be up to me, not Apple, what software I would like to run on my device. It is extremely unethical for a company to dictate what software I am allowed to run on hardware that I own. It is even

Based on the fact that the article mentioned the IRS being involved and the fact that the IRS has been more attentive to cryptocurrencies, my assumption is that they found some way to tie him to the wallets he was using. I would be surprise

Why is that? C remains an immensely popular language (especially as you get closer to the metal). I also don't see Linux being rewritten in something else anytime soon.

Same issues apply to digital ICs as well. The design is much more than just the rules encoded into the logic. What size node are you targeting? Is there an integrated clock? What frequency? What I/O does the IC have? What are the elect

I think the underlying issue here is that IC design is one or two orders of magnitude more complex than software. In my experience, the bar for entry into actual IC design is generally a masters or PhD in electrical engineering. There is a
