I don't think there's any question the pilots would describe it as "a guy in a jetpack" if they weren't sure that's what they were looking at. Spotting traffic around the plane is part of pilot training. With t

It's in the article. Because these are the kind of customers who provide no loyalty back. They'll drive an hour to get a part from a different shop because it's cheaper. There's nothing you can do to attract this kind of

That's what Apple's CPUs do. They have high-power cores for expensive tasks and low-power cores for background tasks and to run the device while it is locked. It's unclear at this point if they'll keep using asymmetric c

Every android phone in that page has a score lower or equal to all the iPhones. This has to be a joke, right? Example: Galaxy S20 Ultra [3/10]: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+S20+Ultra+Tea... iPhon

You can’t monetize an app in test flight. All purchases are fake and collect no money. This argument is bullshit. I know a bunch of apps that have been in TestFlight for ages, and they’re all up and well.

“I’m skeptical of a CPU change because of a bunch of things unrelated to CPU architectures” Don’t forget Apple has done this twice already, and it’s the only company that has done this at this scale and succeeded. If there is a company in t

Now imagine how it feels for black folks. Imagine then that this is how it's been for them for 400 years. Then you start to get a little bit of the anger and desperation they feel right now.

Books, under normal conditions, will not decay by themselves either. However a librarian is still very much needed to preserve and organize them. The main issue is that HTTPS as it is developing right now is the antithesis of HTTP1. Everyth

I agree with the author's points entirely, but I'm going to be the devil's advocate here and argue that this is fine. Sure, old websites will stop working, but just as we shut down our FM radio and analog TV to make room for

Not only that, but also: "He died by poisoning in 1954." No account of the motive of his poisoning, or his prosecution. When activists protest against erasure, this is what they're talking about.
