I've been riding a Micro Falcon X3 for a few months now. Almost all electric scooters are illegal here in The Netherlands, but Micro sells two models which were adjusted to be legal; the throttle has been disabled and you have to actua

I think (hope) they intentionally avoid tight integration with Microsoft branded stuff. Even at the slightest indication of such a thing happening, I bet it would lead to an exodus and outrage among developers, however irrational that might

It’s great that there are a lot of cross platform solutions today. On the other hand it’s also the reason why we put up with shit apps like Slack’s desktop and mobile clients. As a macOS and iOS user I’m sad because both platforms have a fa

The iPod does not compete with cheap non-Apple smartphones. It’s a cheap alternative to an iPhone.

Did GitHub just activate this without confirmation or notification? I'm suddenly receiving PR's on my repo's from dependabot without ever activating this tool. Edit: looks like they defaulted to enable "Automated securit

My 2018 13" mbp has been in repair (for the keyboard ofcourse) for weeks now and they told me it won't be finished until somewhere in june, so this might explain why it's taking so long, perhaps it was on hold for a 4th gen k

Fantastic service. We've moved some of our SPA's out of our Heroku infrastructure and into Netlify. The integration with GitHub (and Slack), automated builds and deploys, together with the built-in support for rewrites and a rever

I think it’s a balance. At the other end of the spectrum are the “cowboys” who are productive by writing sloppy code with bad architecture and are either oblivious of or just ignore the huge pile of technical debt they pass along to the peo

When will HN learn that convenience beats security every single time? All posts that mention Telegram get the same tiring comments about security and they're all utterly pointless and preaching to the choir. Yes, we know there are more

We’ve been slowly moving away from enterprise certificates at our customers and using the “Custom Business Apps” route in Apple’s app store instead. It is a much more streamlined experience, no certificates to worry about and easier distrib

I wish I could share this sentiment because Flutter really does look great, but I don't think it will succeed as long as it's based on Dart and not JavaScript.

It's not just robocalls, but any app that uses CallKit. It annoys me to no end that apps like WhatsApp can take over my entire phone with a call and I am unable to disable that like I can with notifications.

Using this release with Vagrant and the ubuntu/bionic64 (20181214.0.0) box resulted in a very slow boot process which caused Vagrant to abort due to the boot timeout. It looks like this was caused by a workaround I had implemented for

There is a bigger problem here and that is a lot of parents either ignore or simply don’t see the problem. Friends think I’m weird because I carefully curate apps for my 3yo son and have banned youtube. This problem also exists on iOS but I

> you should just be able to do deleteItem={() => this.deleteItem(key)} Don’t do this. Arrow functions (and bind) are reallocated on every render, so this can result in a lot of useless re-renders.
