I would say that snapping is definitely an incidental gesture for some people, and it's also highly inaccessible (while many gesture controls aren't perfectly accessible, audibly snapping is difficult for many more people than tho

But as other comments have pointed out, Get-Command let's you search by module, noun, or verb. It's certainly not the most intuitive if you're used to normal linear autocomplete, but once you get used to it I find it works we

At least in azure, the "platform" that azure runs on doesn't have anything like a managed sql database or a distributed queue service. It's strictly a compute platform. I'd imagine GP is suggesting that only the thi

Large tech companies have the resources to clone any single piece of software engineering or hardware engineering. The marginal cost of developing a new "feature" of their existing "product" is so small in the grand sche

Because to Apple and Microsoft, the OS is the experience, not just the kernel and some runtime bits of userland. It's more accurate to compare a macOS release to a new Ubuntu release (which updates a bunch of apps in the process), but

And for additional context, I believe every major OS vendor and many apps that bundle their own locale data have modifications on top of the stock CLDR database. Those modifications are mostly handled by legal teams, not by engineering.

It's usually more, actually. We have seen 100+ GB build directories when building the "all" target and a non-GOMA build easily takes multiple hours on a desktop i7

Unfortunately no, though I believe there are other attempts at cross platform GUIs whose names I can't remember at the moment...

I've never used AWS so perhaps I'm mistaken, but api gateways normally provide extra functionality on top of just proxying the request. You can still set up a server listening on port 80 or 443 with a public IP and make requests t

Because c++ without OOP still gives you RAII (which is neutered a bit if you don't write your own classes but still), safe pointers, references, lambda, and an immense standard library, to name a few.

Many compiled languages might have breaking changes at the language level but are still compatible at the dll/binary level. Java 1.0 and C# 1.0 code can still be compiled and run on modern JVMs and CLRs, and rust 2015 and 2018 work tog

Perhaps a better analogy is that your company is giving you a Dell/HP/Apple laptop, not a clevo or ibuypower (or even an inspiron vs a latitude)

Im confused... Why doesn't Push-Location (aliased to pushd by default), Pop-Location (aliased to popd by default), and Get-Location -Stack (trivially aliasable to dirs) not work? You can even have multiple location stacks and, if you c

Just like so many other comments in this thread, you're describing powershell. There's autocomplete for parameter names in the basic powershell.exe prompt, but VS Code, VS, and PowerShell ISE (integrated script environment) all sh

If you manually rename a resource and refer to it by resource ID, I don't think ARM understands anything about it and assumes it's a new resource. That's just from using ARM, though, I don't know it's internals. The

This looks similar to Azure Event Grid, which I'm more familiar with. If that's true, the value prop is that one event handler can be webhook based while another handler can be queue based, and you can add and remove these differe

Except many of those stores haven't fostered distrust in their market place with fake products. I found myself buying Amazon basics because I felt like I could trust them in ways I couldn't trust anything else on the site.

Well, this has existed, but it's been internal to Microsoft (perhaps only internal to the windows team? That's the only place I've seen it). It's just taken a while to slowly open source more and more internal tools
