My theory is - it's probably on purpose. If you spent $100 to reach your audience, your ROI would be pretty good for the $100. What if you spent $200 for the same audience reach? You still get results, albeit it's a bit more expen

Even as a vocal Apple critic, I'm not sure I understand the support for Facebook here. Apple isn't blocking anything w.r.t Facebook. All they're simply doing is exposing to the user what Facebook are trying to collect about t

Blame the new hipster driven development with Javascript where it's ok to shove down a 100s of mb worth of assets into your user's browser whether they consent to it or not, all because you can load some fancy animations and write

I am not attacking any individual developer or project here, but in recent times, there's been a trend I've been observing and what you're pointing out. I call it the Hipster Driven Development phenomena* and it's just g

WTF! The entire purpose of a webpage is to describe to an end user what it is about. I understand the need to support a social cause, but this is just ridiculous to mask your entire site with a label to the point where no one knows what the

Always a huge fan of Thomas Fuch's tweet: ~15 years trying to make everyone separate HTML, JS & CSS. And then suddenly everything went south and we’re writing code like this. https://twitter.com/thomasfuchs

No hardware vendor would actually design that way. Pretty sure there are some driver ICs for those motors which take care of those spikes. Besides, controlling voltage limits via software is pretty expensive to do compared to just slapping

Not speaking in support of Apple here, but just like any other manufacturer, their support quality varies with location. I was in Singapore, took my broken screen Macbook Pro for repair and I was quoted something that costed half the price
