Especially when they kinda target different markets. Jobs set up Apple to completely ignore the enterprise space.

I think that writing projects should be done in school while students have access to their educational resources, yes. This is purely my own experience so there's a huge grain of salt, but I have to believe that learning how to compose

I agree for things like writing papers having access to a computer for research and word proccessing is a net positive, but I still believe that this is better handled by shared equipment contained within the classroom or lab. I may be a bi

The immediate rebuttal I can think of is of course you need a Chromebook; your school is now vendor locked to Google's platform. They did this by offering deep discounts to their cloud offerings. The point about writing is a good one t

There's something core to this discussion that I feel like everyone misses. Yes, kids annihilate computers. Yes, Chromebooks have an expiration date that's pretty arbitrary. Yes, Chromebooks generally have lower end hardware that

Group chats are fine as long as other people in the group are using Android. Yes, this is how ridiculous the Apple ecosystem sounds from the outside.

I moved to Outlook with a Microsoft 365 subscription after I found out you could have a custom domain tied to your email (via GoDaddy only, but you can still do it with the right DNS entries) and then made my Google account a free Gmail acc

Too bad it's unwanted tracking instead of an industry standard for Tile-like trackers.

Yeah, there's quite a few smaller municipalities that hold a hazard day or a e-waste collection day. But yeah, they're normally crazy. I wish there were more common collection areas, especially for batteries. Post offices or libra

I think they're missing the point that the ban is for New York. You know, one of the most densely populated areas in the country?

Yes, but natural gas isn't pure methane and CO2 isn't good for the brain. Burning something without a vented hood in a closed space can be incredibly dangerous. Especially if you're talking about high rise apartment buildings

I drive regularly from Milwaukee to Kenosha county and I have a Mini Cooper. I love it. It's not super comfortable for passengers and it's hard to do long road trips due to lack of storage space, but whenever we need more space we

At this point it makes the language/platform a complete non-starter for me. var_dump or echo or print is just not proper debugging. Especially once you level up your debugger skills and utilize more of the functionality rather than jus

I went from a WP/Laravel dev to .NET Framework and now .NET 5+. For me PHP has always suffered from two primary camps: ancient codebases that people don't dare touch, and poor tooling. The former came mostly from the PHP camp. The

Agreed, it's good in small chunks. Sometimes I'll feed it a prompt to generate new code to double check my approach is valid. Sometimes it's shown I am the better architect, other times it's made me aware of parts of an

I'd suggest checking out "Half-Life 2: Raising the Bar" to learn about their design process. It's fascinating. There can absolutely be visionaries out there... Miyazaki, Kojima, Miyamoto are probably the top three right

Powershell has grown on me. Over time I've worn down and started utilizing my Windows install in the Windows way. I think Powershell is a well overlooked feature of the platform, to the point where I now have moved a lot of my scripts&

The only point I would raise is that #1 isn't reliable on any system that has stdout/stderr. For most of the MS-created modules this is implemented correctly. You also have the ability to catch and throw exceptions... foreign to p

I might be an outlier, but I'm extremely attached to the Half-Life series and while it's difficult to not get HL3, I'm also not currently disappointed in any game in the series. If the only thing I have to be disappointed in

They've been taking the shotgun approach for a while. Their product isn't any individual component, it's the platform as a whole. Why people want a company that sells: - Phones - Computers - Tablets - Headphones - AR headsets

These people I'm referencing generally lean more towards libertarian or anarcho-capital.

There are a few people in my circle that are overburdened by conspiracy theories to the point where they think that humans are corrupt and everyone is out to get them. It's exhausting to live like that. My goal is to be my 13 yr old se

I only know a bit about color profiling, but I don't understand why you'd want a color profile on a per app basis? I see it for device-level... like a printer would have a profile, a camera would have a differently calibrated one,

I didn't say that? I was saying that any platform without good third party support could affect sales of that platform. Apple decided to take on this large architecture shift and they decided to go all at once instead of doing it piece

Nope, just continuing your thought process. "Most don't" should probably be "Most [work] doesn't."

Hell, the Adobe suite still lacks a bit on Apple Silicon. Entire industries are built on the marriage of Adobe and Apple products. I'm not going to say that Apple Silicon sucks or that it isn't the better choice in a lot of workfl

Most don't. Some audio workflows require it, and if you're locked into a certain applications like... uh... Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Xcode? Then you have articles like these: https://techjourneyman.com/blog/g

The iPhone 7 had a flaw in its assembly where the radio IC was not epoxied to the PCB correctly. Overtime due to heat stress the chip would get fractures in its solder joints and the phone would lose the ability to get on cell networks. I t
