I upgraded from an iPhone 12 Pro to an iPhone 15 Pro for the camera. I've got some large upcoming trips and felt the improvement was worth it. I love that now I only need a USB-C cable—that simplifies things a lot. Day-to-day it doesn&

It’s been a smashing success for ford. The reason it was impossible to buy is the Ford sold the entire year’s production in a few days. Ford misjudging demand is a screw up, but it’s definitely a been a success.

I gave a measured reply given what the poster provided. "Unbelievable nonsense" is a pretty harsh response. If they are working for a 10-person business burning cash, that is very different than a profitable 1,000-person one. The

There's a lot of "it depends" here. As both a former founder and early startup employee these are the things that come to mind— How far out did you discuss this with your employer? Were they aware of it when you joined? There

Canoo is trying something like that. It's a pretty utilitarian looking vehicle. Deliveries are supposed to begin by the end of this year. Not sure if that's still the case. https://www.canoo.com/pickup/

Honestly, I'm pretty disappointed. I'm in the market for a small hybrid pickup and was hoping the Toyota Stout revival was going to be a solid competitor to the Maverick. I felt like certainly this would be built on the existing R

I have a hard time believing that he didn't realize gains on the Tesla stock he sold to cover part of the purchase. Twitter, the company, took out a loan as part of the financing to help Musk close. That is why Twitter desperately need

He coined the term and wrote a lot of the early guidance for designing responsively for the web. Most of that is common knowledge now, but back in 2010 he was definitely on the cutting edge.

I get what you're saying, but I don't really think this counts as living paycheck to paycheck. This is just reverse budgeting. Heck, I do the same thing. I have a predefined amount that goes into my various accounts each paycheck.

I tried using Apple Weather for months—I really wanted to like it. There's just too many different charts going different directions and it adds a bunch of cognitive overhead to understand the weather. * Current conditions take up almo

Sounds like y'all might have a lot of large images or raster files? That I have files with enormous thousands of components and Figma doesn't miss a beat. If you're able to get vector versions of those, then the speed shouldn

I think the animosity is geared towards the forced RTO. I would be surprised if anyone here would hold heading to the office against you. The problem is when someone doesn't want to go into the office, but is being forced.

There are some reliable manufactures, but the cost is significantly different. I had someone come out and give me a quote for an AprilAire dehumidifier system. The dehumidifier was $2,000, plus $1,000 installation. But they also needed an e

Initially I felt the same way about Gutenberg, but it’s starting to grow on me. There’s a setting that understands markdown—so it’s easy to copy over posts from Obsidian when they are close to being ready. Plus the layout does just about ev

Love the font choice! Never heard of Rubik, but I like stocky letters with a tall x-height. Kind of reminds me of Colfax. https://processtypefoundry.com/fonts/colfax/ I might add the following for a slightly crisp

Not sure you’ve been in the truck market lately, but the only Tacomas under $10k have almost 300,000 miles on it. $20k will get you one with 200,000 miles on it. It’s amazing how well they hold value.
