For what its worth, I just picked up the latest gen and the keyboard seems like a real improvement in both feel and noise. The Touch Bar still sucks, but I am happy with the keyboard.

I have taken probably 15 Acela rounds trips in the last 3 years between Boston and NYC for work and I personally find it more convenient than flight travel. In my case, it's easier for me to get to South Station in Boston than to get t

I saw a report on twitter with serial numbers showing build dates of September and November, along with old copyright dates on the boxes on the new AirPods. Combine that with the "Hey Siri" being shown in "Gather Round"

There are some sketchy chicken dishes, like the subway chicken, who have claimed to be about half soy, although subway disputes it. But at least in terms of beef, I couldn't find a company in the top 5-6 fast food burgers that don&#x2

I can understand not wanting a CC if you don't trust yourself to be responsible, but if you are responsible its effectively the same as debit card + better perks. I have never paid any interest in the 14 years of using CCs and use them

I feel like you editorialized kevin_b_er. Obviously they were talking about Apple preventing this software with working with the new airplay system. Where were they saying it's impossible to come up open source streaming protocol?

I don't think its that easy in this day and age, at least in the US. I graduated from college with almost no student debt because my parents (teacher dad, mom didn't work, three kids) were super frugal and helped me a lot. 10 year

I see my doctor every 6 months and until recently was seeing the same doctor for about 10 years. I have been refilling a 10 pill .5mg prescription of Ativan for about 6 of those years. I took them infrequently at the beginning, like you now

So it looks like the requests go to profile.localytics.com which is the API used for https://www.localytics.com/profiles/ . So not used for performance, but instead "A people-centered and personalized approach to a

I almost didn't believe you because their own password page says to use mix case, but I just tried it... and flipping case totally works. Crazy!

No. Despite it being a defense, sometimes its not worth shining a light on yourself or maybe they just don't feel comfortable speaking out.

It's fine, although its amazing how long it took to get native async testing (iOS 8?).

I am talking specifically about unit testing, ui testing, integration testing and then supporting those tools in some type of ci system. And to be clear, they provide these things in the form of XCTest, XCUITest, and Xcode bots, but they ar

I think it has more to do with the complete lack of testing infrastructure and tooling that Apple has produced over the years, despite the explosion of APIs and developers on their platforms. Even on iOS, which rumors have being more of a f

Ubiquiti does NOT outperform consumer oriented routers in the market. It doesn't even perform as well as some of its commercial competitors. Ubiquitis work great and have a lot of great features, but range and throughput are not where

For what its worth, most benchmarks and tests back up the OP was saying, that Ubiquiti stuff just doesn't have the range and speed of mid to high end consumer routers. edit: And I am not trying to say they are bad, just that they were

I could be wrong, but I think you only need the Verizon modem if you also get TV from them. If you don't, you have to have them activate the ethernet port on the ONT and you can use whatever router you want.

I do the same thing, but still end up with extra at the end of the weekend. When traveling in Europe I noticed a lot of places have small tablespoon servings of UHT milk in little cartons. I wish we had something like that here, but all I c
