I prefer physical as well but my problem is I'm hitting a shelf limit. My plan is to donate the books I don't care about to friends or the library to open up space.

It's not total stagnation. Sometimes you need to lay back and play some mindless game. Other times it's fun to team up with friends/coworkers and play a co-op game. Or maybe you just want to play some visual novel, which can

My then-roommate got one and I remember being impressed at the lack of branding. All laptops until then have had a company logo.

Didn't Tesla push the boundaries on EV, though, whereas traditional car companies were just fine with continuing production of gas based vehicles? I guess there were hybrids but it felt like Toyota was the only big player there.

You also have to trust the source code, or trust a recent audit, then also make sure the build you have kept it's integrity and matches the audit build.

Keybase was acquired by Zoom, and the statement from Keybase reflects that they'll mostly be focusing on Zoom products rather than Keybase product line, hinting it may get abandoned.

I'm curious where Keybase refugees are going to end up. Matrix? Telegram?

To be fair, that seems a common question to ask Keybase prior to the acquisition :P

Depends, are you on a Apple device or no? :D I'm leaning towards it being free of charge but we'll see.

Managers can contribute to this but in my opinion it's a cultural inclination and we've all been thrust into it due to the pandemic. The forced move to WFH will be eye opening to everyone, managers included, and will also give cre

Kind of, but you don't necessarily have to blog about work-related hobbies. You can blog on other interests!

Is your business non-tech related? I've had ideas to leave, myself, but with the times we're in with small businesses getting hit hard it seems it'll take extra courage to do so.

Maybe bring it up to him with constructive criticism? Tell him the wind tends to change direction and one shouldn't typecast themselves in this field.

My guess is because many employers had contracts with them and if you're using it at work, it's likely your go-to for leisure at least if you don't know any better about other options. It bothers me that people are willing to

Due to extreme partisan politics, I have to agree that there doesn't seem to have been any good debates on Senate floor. COVID19 has finally broken the dam of it but doesn't seem long lasting. For the most part the majority party

This doesn't make sense assuming Apple doesn't have visibility of the app development, especially if OP is developing while not enrolled to the Apple dev program.

Perhaps start a small business, get a DUNNs number and separate AppleID, and enroll that way. If the app is going to be making money this may be what you want in the long run. Also, I'm a bit skeptical how you aren't enrolled alre

I think it's a hot topic and the definition is divisive. Having 1 "secret" that end users share and use is technically end to end encryption, I'd say, but it's kind of like sending messages to yourself. It's ki

If it's any reassurance, I believe CS degrees do make us better programmers than those without them. At the least, we picked up concepts that "just programmers" would have had to learn on the side. As for the whole school cos

Got it. So cool, though! Never thought of looking it up so I'm extra pleased to see its successor on HN. Going to have to rewatch it soon!

As a sidenote: If you have an Android phone and your work uses Gsuite, you may want to double check privileges you're giving your company by being signed into your Android phone. Your employer may be able to wipe your phone, track it,

Deep fakes can only work for so long. When it becomes ubiquitous people will naturally learn that anything can be deep faked. We would need some process of verification, then.

Not true. Apple's redesigned keyboard where keys bricked when a small crumb got wedged in impacted not just keyboard fans.

Would be nice to get a survey of current Linux kernel maintainer demographics (age) and see where we're at. Can be good data for a call to arms and potential company backing via charitable funds.

Seems a simple fix would be to add hand sanitizer stations either in the bathrooms or right outside of it.
