I haven't looked too much into the differences, but I suspect DE since it seems to support Linux better.

I don't even want to count how many compressed air bottles I'm through. Most of the time it fixes the problem, but (so far) three times I had to take it to the Apple Store and claim Consumer Law because the key mechanism broke.

Actually, the current version is v3, found on 2017 MBPs. v2 appeared on 2016 MBPs, and v1 on the first 12" MacBook. I have the v2 version, and this is my third top case, if it were not for consumer laws here, I would have moved to anot

While you’re right, this is a point to me which made me choose PIA over competitors. I like when companies give back to open source communities.

I've used BackBlaze for a long while, it works without issues and saved me a lot of times. A cool feature about BackBlaze is that you can browse your files online, this became extremely useful when I traveled with my iPad and I forgot

What I also like about PIA is their continued support of Open Source projects. I have been a PIA customer for a while now and will remain for the time to come.

Adding to this, it now seems that monitor.gitlab.net that's linked in the top post is sending "502 Bad Gateway".

Interesting article with interesting results! I see there is a pull request to test the Erlang BEAM (via Elixir) with seemingly similar results to Go. To me that's pretty interesting given that Erlang's BEAM is a Virtual Machine a

This is the same at Imperial College London (my university) and while some students complain (mostly those who are already familiar with programming before coming to college), some are very interested; in fact, every year we have about 2-3

Even if I am not presently outside the EU, I might want to browse your products so that when I do go outside the EU, I will be able to buy such a product from you. A website that would do this is a huge sign that I should look for the said

Interesting project! Can this be used to potentially include JavaScript in resulting PDF files and use them to animate images in the PDF? This would be useful for some presentations I think.

I think if you are interested in research what matters at the end of the day is that you do something that interests you (with a professor that shares your interest and is willing to take you on). If your school has a research group where y

I am not an ML person by all means, but when I played with GPUs, I found that the time it takes to get something done using CUDA is substantially lower than with OpenCL, nota bene I have not yet tried Metal. The barrier to entry also seems
