I really appreciate focused news sites like avherald. Just the facts, a collection of photos and videos, straightforward. The video of the landing & the passengers cheering—- that huge sigh of relief. Brings a smile to my face.

I spend many hours of each day ~programming~ wrangling text files and I use macos + zsh + textmate2 for my daily drivers. I see shell as an important proficiency because it helps maintain a lower-level understanding of how the "magica

Is this a new method for Google to keep tracking cookies active? I know many people who leave tabs open for months. Using tabs for “read later” seems questionable, performance wise.

I still think agile has a place as a focus for discussion when you're taking a large organization from a waterfall model (or any model that tries to commit to delivering a set of uncertain features by a specific deadline) to a more rea

I switched from Acuvue to CIBA vision (now Alcon) Air Optix about a decade ago. I completely forget that I’m wearing them. They are monthly contacts that are approved for multi-day wear. I usually take them out every night, but if I’m on a

That seems like a serious diagnosis for anyone to make based off of news coverage alone. I don’t think we are helping the dialog when we propagate such ideas.

IMO, 1) early users feel the most connected with your technology and are the most hurt when you screw them over. At that stage, it can sink your company. 2) fixing this when you have 10k users prevents you from leaking the data of the next

An early stage company doesn’t have much to pay you with, but they’re thankful for the help. From my perspective, protecting the data of 10k users was just as important as— or more important than— protecting the data of 1.5m users. I feel b

I’ve reported a bug like this in an application that deals with a similarly sensitive topic— They managed to call me back in 30 minutes (I never gave them my number) and had it fixed in a few hours. I did contact them via every medium I cou

I think an interesting point to keep an eye on is recommendations with negative side effects, e.g. amazons choice for a high security lock has a terrible flaw. https://youtu.be/kJ1_P5oqf6Y

This recognizes the struggle behind the recent re-licensing of Redis Lab's addons for Redis, as well as the public tit-for-tat of Amazon vs Elastic resulting in the "Open" ElasticSearch distro. Instead of developing their own

I don’t believe this author understands the issue here. His description of the force feedback on the wheel is not correct. The automatic trim adjustment from the MCAS would not be detected if the pilot is trimmed in and at neutral stick. Th

It seems to me that the hardproblem here is reliably measuring breasts, and then reliably (and repeatably!) manufacturing the perfect bra. It is not a question of designing the perfect bra given a set of measurements. It’s more “can we make

VueJS will replace a subset of our Angular 1.x usage, and we will remove Angular 1.x, but it's not fair to describe it as a "swap": they do different things.

Correct-- there are other components of a ground data system which handle the space link and and other services, but that is outside the scope of Open MCT. We integrate with a large number of those systems via plugins although it is diffic

This is quite true. At the end of the day, you've got to meet the requirements, and there are design choices you can make so that the solution for one customer is clean and elegant and yet completely unusable for another customer.

Still angular 1.4 on master, with all the problems of large watch count and high digest rates causing a lot of cpu usage just to make a clock tick. We’re in progress on refactors to remove angular, which is no small feat given the number of
