I just bought a used iPhone X and have disabled the face-scanning and use code to unlock instead.

Haha I have for the past few months wondered where the "update" list had gone in the new App Store. Thanks for the help :) That is of course the most natural place to put that information - said no one ever.

Yes and as a side-effect some of the brighest minds in the world may end up working on more pressing issues than getting people to click on links.

Thanks a lot for the recommendation! I have been a little annoyed with Evernote not having an app for Ubuntu, which I recently started using quite heavily. So this looks very interesting!

Debt: The First 5000 years by David Graeber. One of the most interesting books I have read in years. It goes really deep into how money appeared, how debt not always have to be payed back etc. A really interesting read! The Wright Brothers

It is probably a stretch to keep it within "Information and Communications Technology" but when I think about what should be taught and is not, then I cannot help but think "tools"/mindsets on how to be and act in t

They absolutely were. But I have to say that in recent years competitors have caught up and surpassed in some aspects. The newest models from Sony, Sennheiser, B&W, B&O have really stepped up and is on par with the QC35 or above.

I have tried quite a few different as I value th sound quality as high as the noise cancelling. I originally had Sennheiser Momentum Wireless 2. They had amazing sound, connected quickly and quite good battery life. They were however not th

Quite the coincidence as I was just contemplating writing a bit about enterprise sales. So a few points after having been on both the buyer and seller side of the table. People generally never understands: "This can be configured&quo

Thanks a lot for that video. Watched the whole thing on the spot. He is actually quite a good presenter and really gets the points across.

Looks like a very beautiful place! Of course everything mellows out and becomes "normal" with time.

Completely off topic, but somehow I find a daily commute via boat seem like a nice and cosy way of going to work. Where did you go from and to, if you mind sharing?

Yeah I am not sure of the advantages of going the manager-path either. Unless perhaps you break above a certain threshold after some years. Because at a lot of managerial roles you get to work a hell of a lot more, without much more compens

Not really giving an alternative. But I have just bought a fully specced Mid 2014 MBP. I already have a T460s which I cannot decide whether to replace with a X1 Carbon or wait for a new scissor-style keyboard for MBP. But as I ran into the

Perhaps you are just better in US? I am in Denmark, Europe. I used the weather app from Apple, DMI (Official danish weather forecast) and finally a Norwegian called YR. But over and over again I find that none of them can even just tell me

I am very much a proponent of simple and pragmatic design. It should be the default, especially for small - midsize companies. I do however have my doubts once you get to very large financial institutions for instance, where you have a vast

I researched a lot as I liked the feel of the wired Apple keyboard and wanted something similar for my pc at work. I ended up going with the Dell KM717. I comes with a mouse that I cannot stand using for too long, but the keyboard is absolu

Don't quit your job. Work on your project in your spare time. First of all your idea will probably take minimum 3-4x longer to gain traction than your most pessimistic guess. If/once it gains traction it will probably take signifi

If they operate in Europe then I am pretty sure that the GDPR legislation is pretty straight forward here. If you can de-anonymize the data then it is by definition not anonymized.

The Mastermind from The Atavist needs a mention here as well. The best series of articles I have read in a long, long time. Beware that they may take a lot of your time if you start. https://magazine.atavist.com/the-mastermi

How is the keyboard on the T490? I have a T460s at home where I like the keyboard a lot. I have a T470s at work, where the keyboard is a little less to my liking and I tried a colleagues T480s where it felt awesome again - so how about the

I think part of it can be explained or attributed to a life of people "catering" to you. Higher social class will in a lot of circles mean that a lot of people look up to you or wants to be your friend. One way of doing that is al

Solve problems and create value. Look at the entire flow of the product you are a part of. Get to know as much about it as possible and get a deep understanding of the full picture. You will probably be surprised at how many people, permane

Yes. Working as a freelancer/contractor. A big part of it due to sought-after skills in a market that values native speakers. A small part of it probably to do with my experience and the way I conduct my work and finally a pinch of alw

Thanks a lot for this! I am really wanting to change my WordPress site to something more simple. Been fascinated for a while about different minimalist static sites, but never found a good way to get started. This looks like an easy way to
