the next step has already been announced. the holdup is regulatory approval for less-conventional vehicles. https://insideevs.com/photos/802937/waymo-zeekr-robotaxi/#69...

yeah, this whole post feels super revisionist to me - HP was a bad company making bad decisions and awful consumer technology products for a long time before the touchpad disaster. everybody knew HP buying palm was going to be the death of

is it? i feel like file storage and cdn delivery is a pretty solved problem. and you're promoting your "much much superior developer experience" but you've got no docs on your site? that's not a superior developer

unfortunately, building a second NYC for the purposes of A/B testing isn't feasible. but we have before and after data to compare - that's what this article is about. and the congestion pricing plan included requirements to

60/hr is not the same as 1/min, unless you're trying to continually make as many requests as possible, like a crawler. and if that is for your use case, then your traffic is probably exactly what they're trying to block

the article seems to conclude that this is because of tesla's repair or manufacturing practices. but anecdotally, white model 3s are the scariest cars on the road, driven by the worst drivers, most likely to do dangerous and unpredict

the important part of populism isn't the fear and discontent, it's the pandering. some fear and discontent is valid, some isn't, that's not relevant to whether something is populist or not. populism is telling people th

>yes but the bug is writing f instead of t and I assume f will just work but it will not. f-strings and t-strings are not compatible types, they will not "just work". not unless somebody changes a library to make it just work

the verge has always identified themselves as reporting on the intersection of tech and culture. sometimes that swings more towards culture than tech, but this feels completely outside technology.

The key point is that t-strings are not strings. Db.execute(t”…”) would throw an exception, because t”…” is not a string and cannot be interpreted as one. In order for a library to accept t-strings, they need to make a new function. Or el

perhaps a better headline would have been "why the PS3 architecture failed". if it was a success, they wouldn't have abandoned it for the next generation.

if you're a web developer, it's always a good idea to keep a copy of the beta release installed to test your sites on, so you can see these changes before it hits the stable release.
