I've been railing about all the spying Microsoft Teams is doing across corporate networks for the last year or so, to nothing but shrugs, 'I'm sure Microsoft isn't using our business data' or similar responses. Peop

Doyle's inspiration for his stories was always based in his own experiences and people he knew. Hound of the Baskervilles was written after Doyle visited Devonshire. He admitted in his later years that the most glaring mistakes were

Do you even read what you post links to? You are posting ONE quarter results from winter of 2018 that completely backs up what I just wrote. You need to at least review what you are randomly Googling.

That report is EXACTLY what I mean. Apple is having to push the narrative based on segmented data in order to appear to have market dominance. 'Early 2018' is when they released their last model - and prior to the S9 release. Even

I'll bet they can't hear you as well as you think. I've gotten many calls from people who fade in/out no matter how many times I tell them I'm having trouble hearing them. It's because they can hear themselves

There is almost no scenario where interrupting a developer in person is better than sending them an IM that they can respond to later. The only reason would be actual urgency (not the pretend emergencies that businesses claim, either).

Quite a few over the years. .NET, Java mostly in the early days. Sometimes I would just write a parser in whatever language I needed.

I had zero issues with SOAP. I had zero issues with REST, although I couldn't quite understand the proposed benefit. When people started moving to JSON, I thought, okay, this is literally taking everything that already works and just d

That's because they have generations of narrative dialog that is only intended to be used in academia. They use superfluous and oftentimes nonsensical language because they are attempting to create an environment of pseudo intellect, w

I agree. What he means is, it should work first, as simply as possible. Then you worry about correctness- correctness is not referring to working/no working. Correctness means, 'how SHOULD this work?' or 'How should this

They're not upset about privacy, they're upset the election was stolen. They didn't care when those of us with experience in election issues brought this up 20 years ago, they didn't care in 2000, they didn't care

I've already beaten them out in some niche markets where we went head to head, so, yes.

That's what they are selling people. I've been thinking of renting out some space to local startups, but my approach is completely different - barebones for people who want to just pay a low amount but have a spot to actually wor

You show me any company with beer on tap, and I'll show you a company that I will run over if we are competing against each other.

When I was younger, I read the Bible from cover to cover, twice. Now I am much older and as an atheist, I wish I hadn't wasted my time on such simplistic themes written by simplistic men. There are much deeper and more profound books a

The issue with Quora, on the other hand, is they want access to one of your accounts - like Gmail - in order to log you in. Nope.

I read that as well, and I'm pretty sure that's still the case in the US as well. You never pay "debts" unless you're sure it's legitimate. NEVER . And I say that as a person who has actually done some of th

And advertiser ROI - which was never good - is dropping. Twitter's market share of the advertising world is not enough to sustain it. Hence their attempts to move over into video, for better ROI. But it seems like it could be a move t
