Apple hasn't given any examples of removing APIs without a deprecation lasting at least a few years... on iOS. If it's deprecated on macOS, it's going to be around for a lot longer. They can certainly make things hellish for

> this is why Network Kernel Extensions (NKEs) are deprecated (which started last year). I wouldn't be surprised if macOS uses the user-space stack starting next year and NKEs are fully gone (this also corresponds with 32-bit proces

I gotta ask, because I've used MBPs for the last 10 years, and I'm surrounding by dozens of people using the same: but what is your setup? Are you on High Sierra? Sleep used to be a problem for me and a lot of others... back in 20

Aside from Steve Jobs surprising the Facetime team with his open source announcement (and honestly, any Steve Jobs claims in general), what are you referring to?

Yeah, I'm a little torn on this. The OP's claim makes sense on its face, but then I think about my own household, where we're solidly upper-middle class, and my wife and I refuse to keep sugary cereals (and most other junks l

Why is there an assumption that competence is lost by allowing for equal opportunity? We can prioritize equal opportunity and then meritocracy within that. There's no need for all this handwringing about loss of quality, when there&#x2

Just anecdotal of course, but I live in a decent-sized-but-unimportant city and Bay Area recruiters have been hitting my LinkedIn inbox quite a bit in the last few months, when the last time I heard something from them was when I graduated

Facebook needs to start treating their video platform more like a YouTube competitor, that pays content-creators real dollars. If they stay on this path where they try to force all consumers and creators to be on their platform without ince

Yeah, I really miss this. It doesn't help that I moved across the country in my early 20s and never developed any decent friendships since then.

Here's where I let armchair "back in my day" parents down: I don't trust the drivers here. We also have massive elevation diffs and no sidewalks anywhere. Some ditches are basically cliffs.

I think this might have contributed, but a larger contributor is likely the explosion of housing developments with larger lot sizes and suburbs-of-suburbs/exurbs, which prevent a kid from knowing any other kids living within a mile rad

I believe it's accurate for a subset of middle class fams, and more higher class stay-at-home moms and families who can afford nannies. They exist, but most families don't have the time and money.

Prior to my knee injury I was a happy runner, and I definitely found that just going for longer than 15 minutes would completely clear out my nose if I was at the congestion stage of a cold. Of course, my nose would be congested again a few

People have already hammered you for this, but a Merciless Judge actively looking over shoulder while you're working is a completely different kind of stress than trying to get a fix out the door ASAP.

> And a popular videogame can be wildly more expensive. MLB The Show 2018 for instance is $60 in the US and $100 in AU That's actually easily explained by manufacturers tying their product to the US dollar. We're getting fucked

They have been relevant, yes, but that doesn't mean their primary audience isn't aging. If you truly believe the Beatles and AC/DC are gaining more followers than they are losing, you are woefully out of touch. Spotify was ex

This sounds like a process problem, not a gradle problem. I don't think there's inherent readability to maven, and I'd love to share my previous employer's pom files with you.

Not as easy as using gradle. I've written a couple maven plugins in my time, and I'm so very glad we have gradle now.

Some "players" like Stitcher are trying their best to get away from that, though. And they're seeing moderate success, too. I feel like podcasts have simply been overlooked by big media types, and the day is coming where enou
