I have been driving a Model 3 for the past almost two years, and I can't charge at home. It isn't all that inconvenient, as I can charge often while stopping at restaurants, and I almost never have to charge for "30-40 minute

Those same phishing emails can just ask you to install some random non-browser software or activate any number of other insecure things. If you are trying to protect a user from going far out of their way to follow instructions they are han

It sounds like you just dislike magazines. The entire point of a magazine is to spend more time and make an enjoyable read with a longer form article. Just because you prefer newspapers doesn't mean it makes sense to shit on magazines:

But that isn't the problem from the article--the ethical issue of how to deal with a ton of people who are being kept alive on a "bridge to nowhere" when the machines might could be used in the interim to save many more peopl

Yeah, because Mac used to : as the separator... but, : is also an extremely commonly-used character that I have off wanted to put in a filename.

Nothing that requires the user to keep knowing your new URL is ever going to be peer-to-peer: the domain name system is fundamentally and irretrievably a hierarchical system; the ramification of this, of course, being that it supports your

FWIW, I have never wanted to put a \ in a filename, but I have often wanted to put a / in a (pretty) filename, as / is used in standard English all the time; I then find myself using "-" instead and that makes me unhappy

I don't think the point is they have to spend their time writing more rules if they don't feel they have to, but they are the ones who would do it: with respect to the rules and policies and procedures of our government, we have a

Right, and there I would say we even agree, per my first sentence; however, I wanted to reply not to you, but to doctor_phil, who was explicitly disagreeing about speed.

While I personally find the if statements harder to immediately mentally parse/grok--as I have to prove to myself that they are all using the same variable and are all chained correctly in a way that is visually obvious for the switch

Smalltalk and C both came out in 1972 and it really isn't clear to me that C's crazy for-loop design -- one that actually isn't used by many programming languages -- is somehow better than the one used by Algol, so I am strug

I wouldn't expect this to be a very good test as I'd think the camera could easily tell the difference between taking a picture of a screen and taking a picture of a jacket.

Oh wow, I'd forgotten about Front Row... presumably named after how if you say with a Mac in the front row of an auditorium the people behind you could pull out any Apple remote and use it to make your laptop fade to black and enter so

I guess, to me, the defining characteristic of a "store" is that you can buy things at a store... it just feels awkward to say that a store is just a place that has things and lets you get them on request ;P. AppTapp Installer was

Ok, but we don't have to talk about this "depends" idea: that's not how reddit did it and I thought we were talking about reddit ;P.

So, I would use the term "pixel-perfect" to mean that the person making it can target some specific layout, choosing all aspects such as the sizes and fonts and exact colors and such. However, even without that, you can still say

The problem is you can't trust it: people can modify that part of the URL arbitrarily and so you think the URL has meaning, but it doesn't.

I don't think you have to have a "pixel-perfect" rendering system to support centering things correctly?

(I'd argue that wasn't a "store".)

Like the other reply, I also find movies in IMDB and it is also my "primary" source, though I use it differently: I generally want to watch movies in clusters of who's involved, so I will watch a movie I ended up thinking was

It is not "illegal" to violate an EULA, at least in the United States.

At least on Linux and macOS, the "OS" never was responsible for this and I at least do not believe that it should become responsible for this; the kernel merely parses the header to see if it lists an "interpreter" and,
