When Samsung says "that's all folks" the user can install one of the alternative distributions and continue to use the device. The problem is that a tiny percentage of users actually do that. It leaves the rest vulnerable t

That's the base salary. Amazon has a cap on the salary. The rest of the compensation comes from bonuses and RSUs.

Prepare for the performance review from day one. Create a folder in your mail client or google doc to keep quotes providing feedback to you, or to keep track of what you have to say about others.

With the level of just-in-time inventory systems used in the auto industries, I'm surprised the manufacturers could actually build this many cars. I'd imagine the whole line would be down if they are waiting for the bluetooth mod

Another issue with iPhone 6 was the amount of RAM it had. With the newer iOS and updated apps, the memory consumption went up and the device would run out of memory, slowing down everything.

This is just the modern day version of what happened more than a century ago: In 1914, US Marines broke into the central bank of Haiti, stole half a million dollars in gold, and brought it to New York. https://twitter.com/Ka

I think, in this case, you underestimate the probability of that happening randomly. The birthday problem [0] can explain that. Imagine you have conversations with your spouse about hundreds of things. And then you see ads about hundreds of

The real business world is not atomic. The idea is to keep track of things that you've done, and do compensating things to roll their effect back if something goes wrong. See the Saga pattern for an example. I also found Gregor Hohpe&#

I switch regularly between the 2018 15" MBP from work and the personal 2012 retina 15" MBP. The most obvious difference I see immediately is that the CPU in the 2018 model is substantially faster. And boy the the bigger trackpad i

I wonder what it takes to have more than 16GB of RAM in these "for developers" laptops. I really like the form factor and the fact that it works well with Linux out of the box, but I am sure I will regret buying a laptop with 16G

I just want to add another angle. Apple, as well as other tech companies, have many employees in China, and a lot of non-Chinese employees that travel to China regularly. Many of these changes are demanded by the PRC government and not abid

I used to work as an SDE for Amazon at their Vancouver, BC office. The door desk was the default desk you would get. And they were, as Amazonians call it, the "frupid" option. There was a long wait time, and they were shipped from

That's because you are not supposed to rebase other people's code on top of a changed base. That can effectively modify the behaviour of their code change. So it's good that the resulting commit won't be signed anymore.

Sure, autopilot does better than the average car on the road. But there are parameters to control for. For example, the average car on the road is 10 years old, it's probably not very well maintained, and on average costs <$20k. Yo

If you're looking for a graph that shows more than a projected minimum/maximum for every day, take a look at Foreca's 15-day forecast page [0]. It shows percentile lines for the forecasted minimum and maximum, which give a mu

It's not like the old headphones can't be used without a headphone jack. The 3.5mm-to-lightning or 3.5mm-to-usb-c dongles are small and relatively cheap. I just keep mine hooked up to my wired headphones.
