It is both, to some degree. If our society was willing, for example, to pay $14 for a Big Mac, it's possible a McDonald's cashier working in San Francisco could be paid a livable wage. When a Big Mac sets you back only $4 in a nea

Sorry if I misunderstood. There's certainly a lot of room for discussion and debate about what terms are binding/enforceable and what aren't. Terms of service and automatic user consent are pretty legally wishy-washy concepts

Her face is also peppered liberally in murals and street art in Los Angeles. It's unusual, because no other artist in Los Angeles seems to be particularly celebrated in that way — it's Kahlo's image that seems to be important

Outline's servers are not a public space. The idea that discoverability by protocol implies ownership or a grant of license seems faulty. With respect to Outline's terms, I'm not a lawyer, so I can't speak to whether the

The iPhone SE is primarily aimed at emerging markets, isn’t it? In such markets, a $600 (base price) computer without any peripherals is a comparatively much more difficult sell. The iPad at $329 is an odd exception to Apple’s typical rules

I still really like the iMac. While it doesn’t quite get the attention it deserves, it’s still a legitimately great machine. Overall, it may be the best machine Apple makes right now. I’m not all that fond of the Magic Keyboard (mine failed

"Cheap" and "entry-level" are two terms Apple is particularly unfond of, however. The reason why the Mac mini is no longer being updated may be because it's simply too cheap.

It's a bit of a chicken-and-egg scenario in that you can't get past that 10% unless you really devote the energy to it, and you can't justify the energy when it seems to contribute so little to your revenue. At one time Apple

Dust or debris can get under the keys and cause them to fail. There are also complaints that some keys don't register as well as others, and that some keys have a different feel than others (in terms of sponginess, etc.)

It can't be deduced from the footage alone whether the Model S is braking or not, but it's clear that it decelerates and stops after it impacts the dummy car. In the U.S. at least, it's highly unlikely that the driver in fron

The driver in front also knew about the stationary ‘car’ well ahead of time and was instructed to avoid it by merging into another lane. An actual human driver in a real scenario may perform better than the Tesla, as well as the Tesla or wo

I don't think any of the projects will compile on macOS as-is. You'll want to look at project forks if you're looking for something that'll compile out of the box.

While there’s truth to this, there’s no real discussion here about deprecating or removing BSD sockets. UNIX, POSIX and OpenGL are very, very different things to discuss, and Apple deprecating one doesn’t speak to any real expectation of de

Counter-argument: two-finger gestures are unergonomic for single-handed use. Sometimes that’s an unreasonable trade off; sometimes not.

Those aren’t the issues the commenter to which I responded claims to be concerned with. You’re making an argument based on separate concerns, which is valid, but those aren’t the things that we were discussing.

A part of this is also attempting to capitalize on GitLab being integrated with the new Xcode, as the blog post mentions.

If it's any comfort, GitLab's intention is to go IPO rather than to be acquired. Granted, what they intend and what actually transpires at some point may change.
