How do you know those sweepstakes are illegal? Have you verified that the Paul brothers either have bad legal teams or no legal teams?

As a longtime iOS engineer trying to prototype something on Windows, I did not realize how good I've had it while working with UIKit. I just want Microsoft to give me the one true Blessed Way to write Windows apps. Instead it seems lik

I'm bothered that more people aren't upset about 2 payment providers effectively controlling all non-cash commerce. I assume we'll wake up a few years from now and say "oh, yeah, probably wasn't a good idea to let p

How have switchers resolved video calls with extended family? FaceTime seems to be the standard now. I'd have to convince everyone to create a Google account for Meet or similar free video calls.

Another aspect is that most of the people in working low wage jobs who may have been living on their own or with roommates eventually had to abandon them and move back in with their parents, or find more roommates. The people who worked the

Yet Apple gave up on Safari on Windows and isn't present on Android phones. Unless Macs and iOS devices take over the world (which may happen years from now), Safari will continue to be outnumbered and pushed aside.
