In step 46 of the demo walkthrough, the little popup bubble says "Viola!.". The word you're looking for there is "Voilà!" (minus the extraneous period) Seems like an interesting project and I can see the appeal to m

Oof, certainly sounds like a miserable train wreck. These are the sort of ideas that, at best, seem like they should be explored with an isolated R&D approach, or simply left to academics. And, if they are executed realtime with a compa

It sounds like you're making the kind of choices that will undoubtedly hone your writing, and for that I sincerely commend you. (This is certainly an area I could improve in myself.) A concern I have would be that someone is too eagerl

The primary goal of any aspiring writer on any medium should first and foremost be to write. Recommending certain guidelines or approaches is certainly fine. Self-reflection and self-improvement is usually an admirable goal but not at the

It's funny because I read "executive reaction" as pertaining to an individual's physiological response, not as "the actions taken by the organization's leadership", which then gave "Executive Dysfunct

But at what point does it become no longer "blog" and just generic "content"? Personally , I'd strongly insist that the whole point of blogs was to do whatever the fuck you want. Because that was the point when the

I'm ardently in favor of making code human readable as practically as possible. Personally it follows on my personal Rule #1: Be kind (i.e., in this case, to others and your future self.) However, searchable =/= greppable. > Fl

That seems like a highly presumptive gamble. And, as referenced elsewhere, it isn't the right argument against pushing for progress in pay equity. I'll admit up front that I'm simply not going to see eye-to-eye with anyone wh

And that's good! But it can't be assumed that everyone had the benefit of that experience.

Of all the things Zuckerberg could have cited, he chose arguing FOR allowing information that could have materially detrimental effects on living human beings?? Or did I misread?

I know this is probably going to land with a thud in this venue, but as a counterpoint to the predictable "why do toothbrushes need an app?!", it should at least be acknowledged that these apps might be the first and only place so

Exactly: sorry that you might potentially lose a benefit that was gained only by an arguably broken system but them's the breaks, kid. Deal with it.

I've never worked full-time since I was 16 but never a job where tipping was the norm (I'm in the US) so maybe I'm missing something obvious but isn't a stable income preferable? And where is the assumption coming from t

One thing to bear in mind is that the iPhone based satellite connection is highly directional, meaning whoever is using it needs to be conscious and able to follow the on-screen instructions to align the phone with a certain point in the sk

When you're in SOS mode, you can use the satellite connection to manually update your location—separate of the emergency response service—so anyone who you've chosen to share that with can see it, as well as in Find My. I'm o

Personally, I don't think it has to hold up. At least not necessarily in the way that this is generally meant, i.e., a timeless classic that more or less transcends the historical context that produced it and, probably most important

On first blush, this is an interesting premise. And it would seem to make sense once there is no need for human attendants, nor any potential accommodation for them.

And I want to be clear that I am not suggesting that alternatives are superior, nor that Google, et al, are obligated to use them. Just that they exist and have been widely and long used. So just to counter the idea that the advertising-sup

There's a number of alternative business models that have been employed by organizations large and small for decades. More information can be readily found online which will be better than I could provide.

It is a faulty assertion that those things must include advertising to be free.

While this seems like a legal (and moral/ethical) win, I can't help assume there will be no meaningful justice for anyone directly affected by the conspiracy. At best there might eventually be a class action lawsuit filed on behal
