This happened to me today! I was using my phone and then it went all weird with no haptic feedback when typing. I finally figured out that battery saver was on and disabled it... This really bothers me... I am starting to think we need a tr

This is cool, but TC's site is shit. THis seems to be just a article to push you to a iPhone advertisement that loads once you scroll down.

Don't forget, the lot of ideas that Apple took to make the iPhone where mostly built off a bunch of other ideas them self. I find us in a strange new era of people using the past as a way to diminish the now. I grow tired of people pus

Both copyrights and patents are stupid in a digital age. If you don't want people to make copies of bits and bytes (large numbers) you found to be interesting or even arranged to be interesting don't upload them to the internet. O

There was before the government got its hands in it. Before guaranteed loans students had to be verified based off their merritt to get a loan. Lenders took a real risk and had incentives in the person being successful so they would have ho

Yeah like iSCSI backed by the cloud but with local cache for recently used data. And the ability to roll the entire device back to a state in the past (depending on how big you want your S3 bill to be).

by mbrumlow 8y ago
Just wondering. Would anybody want a block devise backed by s3 or other object storage? Local cache with snapshots that can be rolled back ? Maybe giving you a exobyte of addrisable storage ? This would be a actual block device not a fuse

> racist outcomes Its not racist if race was not the driving factor. I think that is the big part of why there is so much push back. On this topic. You appear to be viewing the outcome as raciest, but are not willing to see how other fac

You are right, the result may be the same. But it is important to properly label and address the issues. This is part of the entire issue as a whole. And partly why I think the there are better solutions to the problem. Intent matters. If y

I am done replying directly to this topic. I feel that we could disagree forever. Thank you for a honest debate on this issue. As I constantly reevaluate my position on any stance I take; I will consider the arguments you made in combinati

You are being completely dishonest. Don't put words in my mouth. I never said such a thing or implied it. All I am doing is pointing out the difference between that and selcting somebody based off color. This is the second time you hav

I have actually read that paper and it is fairly old at this point, and other studies like it more recently have concluded different results. While your quote mentions class, and asserts that they were not getting signals from class -- one

That is where I take issue. You are wrapping up the measure of raw potential based off gender and skin color. You can't make any assumptions about that based off those two things. You don't know if you are looking at a wealthy bla

My understanding is they filled the need of work being done while the men were off at war. But again. Just because there were women doing a job that is very different than today's or the last 40 years of programming and now there is no

What historic wrongs kept these people out of programming? Last I checked most of programming came from the once persecuted nerd and geeks. Things have changed for sure, but every time I hear this statement with relation to programming I ca

You can but at the risk of deviding people. And most definitely alienating some people. The the entire men vs women is toxic. Every man can't be held responsible for for what some man did in the past. We are different people and not id

When you start pointing out genders you automatically make something that was "inclusive" into a bunch of smaller exclusionary groups. In today's age women can be just as offense as man can to groups who don't identify a

That maybe the books focus on some of the topics. But maybe it would have been a better book had it just focused on the code breakers and how imoortnant they were. Society has changed alot. And all this setting the score right stuff is goin
