Technically, those utilities were originally BSD, but Apple took them and modified them and did not release the sources back into BSD. So they're not really BSD anymore.

Does the Mavic pro have a detachable camera stabilizer? That's the reason I would buy GoPro's drone.

You mean iMovie? How can it get easier than "drag and drop your video, hit share button"

If only they made crappier products that break more often, at least then their stock shareholders would think it's a good company. This exemplifies everything that's wrong with capitalism and planned obsolescence.

The problem is, in some states, you HAVE to show separate shipping and sales tax, otherwise you are not allowed to deduct them from your taxes. Found that out after doing a Kickstarter (can't charge shipping + tax), and California&#x27

First of all, that's Windows only. Says so right there in the listing. Second of all, it's yet another dongle I have to carry around and potentially lose. There's often not a whole lot of room on stage, so space is precious.

They gave it to you for free on the assumption you would look at the ads. They didn't have to give it to you. You didn't have to take it. It's called freedom.

I'm a VJ. You absolutely need that many ports when doing visuals at a concert or venue. That was the whole reason I bought a MBP. Now it looks like PC might be a better choice; Apple has abandoned the professional "workhorse"

Two USB ports PLUS two thunderbolt/mini display PLUS an HDMI and 1/8 analog, all while charging. That's 6 vs. 3 available ports.

A web framework that doesn't work on actual web browsers? What is the point of that? Supporting older browsers is like half the job.

Is it just me, or is $50,000 out of $600,000 not that big of a deal?

Google's IoT solution offers this. But no one seems to want to use it.

You're abusing the law of averages though. Yes, productivity might be fine for the most "economically productive" members of society (e.g. programmers, middle managers, aka the privileged.) For everyone else, aka the people o

What? Samsung comes with a copyrighted background image by default on their phones. The modder took that background image, modified it, and redistributed it. That's illegal. > can Samsung assert copyright over any real-world photogr

This is why the Distributed Web is so important. We need to be sharing all our videos/content in a P2P manner so it can't get censored.

hmmm... already I don't like them because they recommend Scott Weiner. He's the jerkweed who sponsored the bill making it legal for police to steal homeless people's possessions. What a cold human trashbag. Homeless or not, t

Exactly. If you can write a vulnerability in Angular, you can write it in vanilla Javascript as well. Unless Angular is using `eval()` or something and Firefox bans any use of `eval()`, which is reasonable...

I've seen bendable batteries that can even be cut in half without danger (and they still work!) I even have some samples in my closet somewhere: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx08CGcyuAE

If by "well-defined rules" you mean normal "Copyright Law", then yes. But it extends no protections or permissions beyond what copyright law already gives you.

Own in the very legal sense that it is your Intellectual Property, even though you have no real control over it once it gets into their hands.

Then he's not a very good programmer. This is technology: at the rate it's advancing, even tools from 5 years ago are out of date. You have to constantly keep up with the latest advances in programming if you want to stay relevant

Yeah, this is like the main reason I love npm: ability to use a Github repo as a package repo.

npm is the bazooka. Covers a lot more area with a single tool, but sometimes dangerous if you use it wrong. C/C++ tooling is a plastic butterknife you get with airplane food.

Compared to C/C++ tooling and package managers, npm is like taking a bazooka to a knife fight.
