I wasn’t talking about industrial but your usual Ivan. Just think about how many garbage is produced by a family every day. As for your article, I don’t have access to the PDF, so I cannot verify it. The place I grew up sometimes I could se

These are not fountains but glorified watercoolers with sparkling water and, sometimes, lemonade. Most of the time they were not free although very cheap: 1 copeck. These survived up to the 1995, several years after the fall. And yes, most

iPhone is not only 1cm thick, it’s actually more: 1.275cm to be precise with the bump. Also camera hole has a diameter of 1.6cm.

It’s not about the chip or sensor for that matter: it’s about the lens. That’s why macbook from 2010-2013 has better camera quality: it has thicker display and more space for camera module.

You do understand that larger sensor means not only thicker package but also larger width? Would you like 1cm black border around your display like it’s a pc from 2010? Short answer: all this would make an ugly laptop. That’s why they creat

The idea of FaceId is to minimize the use of a passcode so that wouldn’t be stolen in the first place. In if you worry about that, then probably disable faceid for banking apps :-) Apple also recently implemented optional stolen device prot

Do you want your laptop screen be as thick as an iPhone? It’s just basic physics: you cannot have 1-inch sensor with a lens right on top of it in 3-5mm of total thickness. Just the same way your eye is not flat but 2cm long.

The notion of most top talent leaving is very much opposite of true. Some reasons for better than ever demand in IT are the creation of alternatives to some gone paid western products like SAP or migration of the existing solutions to open-

I would say the article is about Pax Americana. Anywhere else — like Russia, Asia, Africa — IT is booming with stronger demand than ever. Probably, one of the main reasons for layoffs in “US and what have you” is new wave of deglobalization

How should it be related to sanctions, ie what specific sanctions? If Apple keeps working and taking payments on App Store (even Apple TV+), HomeKit is working, etc. there’s no reason that Netatmo should not. This was out of the blue. No wa
