Yeah, I'm in a similar boat to you. Unfortunately we're not the majority of the users in the Apple ecosystem, so our use cases aren't really what the design changes focus on. The only changes I've noticed in the last few

Install some GFCI outlets everywhere and the risk is gone. Also you are very, very, very unlikely to be electrocuted in this way even if you do touch the metal and get voltage passed through you. Like, it is possible, if one finger in a han

I feel like I missed something, and now everywhere I look we have headlines like this. What's wrong with "CRISPR gene editing shown to cure Transthyretin amyloidosis in patient study" Maybe I'm now one of the old people

And the pendulum swings yet again. Eventually, with scale, I feel this approach will realize why the code reviews were implemented in the first place. I love experimenting with new approaches and challenging old processes that everyone seem

I'd say a lot of that stuff increases with value to an individual over time, but has less demand. Some of those SO discussions are the only references to ancient legacy code that is useful, when asking any questions about it today woul

It really does matter to the customer if the junior understands it when the code fails though. Easy to understand code can be more quickly patched and repaired by anyone on the team. If you don't need to call in the senior who built it

I don't think they "feel" that way more as it is an economical decision. If you have more work coming in than you have allocated resources for, there are decisions that have to get made. Summed up and very simplified obviousl

It wasn't really lack of jump training that killed the men in Operation Squatter, it was one of the planes getting shot down with 15 men in it, and then fighting the enemy.

None of what you listed are similar cases. Farming produced food to eat. Mining produces minerals to build things with. Factories produce goods. Bitcoin produces... A series of bits that some people will pay money for? It seems like bitcoin

I disagree with your idea that lack of diversity is only a problem for liberals. It is a problem for everyone is young white males are the ones building all the technology, because then the only problems we'll be solving is that of you

Having 4 weaker motors is generally safer than one big one if something were to hit it, and you can shorten the blades because the lift is spread across 4x as many blades. Multiple motors is good as well for any motor failures, as quads (if

What is the difference between what you are describing and a helicopter? Obviously comparing quad drones to fixed wing aircraft is going to make it seem that the quad drones thrown out 100 years of innovation and theory, but they are very d

How accurately can you compare these numbers against country populations? Do iProducts have an equal distribution around the world in various countries?

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. This reply seems very similar to "global warming isn't happening, it still n degrees in winter". Things are just starting to change now. Our food production levels are the result o

The captions for Google meetings are frighteningly good and accurate. We use a lot of acronyms, and made up words that it turns into acronyms. I sometimes get spooked because even with it off, I know all those meetings and social calls are

I think there is a difference in kind over rules that govern paid employees, and rules that govern developers who are paying to be on the platform, and told to design and innovate, but if you step over a line we're not going to write d

Don't the utility companies have the same issues with infrastructure placement and land though? Or is there some eminent domain thing for power utilities that doesn't apply to telecom?

Using it on all of our services, we all love it. Troubleshooting and optimizations are ridiculously simply, there isn't much investigation, APM just tells you what is wrong, saves a lot of Dev time and we'll worth the money IMO

Seeing how fond the Dead were about dosing people without their knowledge (which is horrible and despite being a deadhead, I find abhorrent), I'm sure Bear would be glad he got someone tripping from beyond the grave.
