They used to stand for protecting constitutional freedom, even if that conflicted with other leftist causes. Now they don't stand for protecting freedoms per se, rather advancing a more general progressive agenda. i.e. they used to pro

Looks like about 4% of all cases of cancer can be attributed to alcohol consumption: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanonc/article/PIIS1470-2... Not the leading cause, but significant, especially when con

Equating anti-CCP sentiment with anti Asian propaganda is gaslighting. That’s like anti-Putin sentiment being equal to being racist against Slavs.

Most interesting choice is the capacitive replacement of the function keys. Looks like it may be equally as disruptive to touch typing (especially the escape key) as the MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar was.

Yep, Unifi + bridge mode for the win. Make wireless as dead simple as possible and move your intelligence to your router/firewall.

It's good journalism when you can get a feel for the logical complexities of a situation through the narration while retaining the humanity. I wish more of today's journalism retained this kind of storytelling instead of the opini

When a company makes the previously impossible, possible, carping about them having some kind of 'monopoly' on their newly created market is the worst kind of carping.

Interesting perspective, though I'd like some detail around the 'worry about getting shot' comment. I'm in my 50s and have lived in the US all but 2 of my years, and have never been concerned about getting shot (in the U

Yep- though I'm leaving to be closer to family, Austin suburbs are a nice in pretty much every axis other than commute, which hasn't been an issue since going remote.

I just took a job that specifically allowed remote but I'm flying onsite a (work) week a month. To me that is a great compromise, especially since I don't have to pay for the flights/hotel/car.

So the virtualization hooks aren't just in MacOS? I could compile your app on my M1 iPad and run full MacOS virtually?

Sure, but plenty of those jobs still around. In fact they've been struggling with the rest of the market in filling positions. AmEx travel is constantly recruiting.

Why would a current company need to be a reference? The fact of your continuing employment should be sufficient. I never use my current employer as a reference and never give notice till the background check fully clears.

Anyone like me who can ‘see’ images in dreams and in near sleep, but almost no voluntary ability to visually imagine when fully awake? Sometimes I sleep deprevate on purpose if I need an extra kick of creativity…
