Its 100% this. “lets you create the file directly where you want it, saving you the trouble of having to navigate through the Save As dialog just to get back to where you started.”

It’s snake oil that is effective to a degree only so that it can be even more effective at convincing others to buy it. Nobody is going to circumvent the power of government. I can show you proof that you don’t need to pay income tax, but I

Just curious has anyone ever turned signups around and asked for the person to send an email instead? Something like send an email to signup@someservice.com Then send a follow up confirmation email, no captcha required.

You don't shoot in any direction where missing the target is a problem. If there a a house near-by or a busy road and the path of a bullet not hitting its target may encroach that space you don't even point your gun let alone shoo

What % of students struggle and never really get the maths? What % do fine with the maths but never need them in their adult lives? I would argue this is far more than 75% of all people. Same can be argued probably with higher %s for foreig

The tests are designed to have high false positives because they have to bias toward few false negatives and there are no perfect tests. What gets me is that the negative result is the one bearing meaningful information but not the positive

Having felt the pain of maintaining my own instances, deploying, updating, dockering, when all I wanted was to have a function deployed out there somewhere I was stoked when serverless functions were announced at AWS Re:Invent. I never felt

I wanted to teach, I went to school to teach art. I wanted to change how the system worked. I saw so many things wrong with my experience, which was demonstrably well above average. In the end I found out I'm horrible at classroom mana

This point is totally valid but in the case at my work it is actually both. The old saying in marketing is "I know i'm wasting 50% of my marketing budget I just don't know which 50%." It still holds true for companies wi

The most obvious answer to me is PsyOp. Don’t need any advanced tech to produce pixels and compelling testimony. Why would any military allow something as top secret as such evidence and then confirm its veracity to the point of allowing pi

Interesting to me how the mainstream media is running with this now. Why? There are tons of UFO reports from military eye witnesses going back to WWII. Why are we now getting this wave of, ok it’s reasonable to elevate this topic to nightly

There are legitimate uses for such things. We are currently implementing a processing rules configurator UI and backend that must ultimately be executed in sql. It must support arbitrary nested boolean logic and comparison expressions. Las

I don’t think the demise of 3rd party cookies is going to be the boon for privacy some think it will be. Marketers still want to advertise and track performance of ads and are all moving to first party cookies with Facebook and Google and o

The difference is a fantasy at least in the US. Your online activity even if protected by the company and not sold on the open market is subject to the subpoena powers of the state. These powers apply to all "business records" and

“Because here's something else that's weird but true: in the day-to day trenches of adult life, there is actually no such thing as atheism. There is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships. The only choice we get is w

my solution to version changes in a rest api is to sent a version header with every response, the app checks it and if it does not match reloads the page, thus loading the new js.

Another aspect of this db file per client configuration that is fantastic is the ability to offer data ownership and portability by allowing users to download the database file for themselves. No sql dump or service needed just a signed dow

This is fantastic. I have hemmed and hawed in doing similar things to build a serverless database. (both in the embedded sense and the FaaS sense) I could have a file or more per client and pay nothing until they load the app. There are a l

1000% yes to all points. I also wish there were gpu options in serverless compute and shared attached ssd or other fast storage, not to mention cross function communication.

The length of this dual language transition period is a travesty and an incalculable waste of money and time. They dragged this out for more than a decade. That’s the problem, people just got used to there being two versions. Should have ju

Came here to make a similar point. Both political sides in the US can point to the observations in the excerpt as chilling historical illustrations of current and potential near-term events. That illustrates in my mind what is so terrifying
