Competing services should ironically be somewhat happy about this news. Apples entry into this space might help to legitimize it and quell at least some of the outrage.

Which is odd because Slack was the leader in this space just a few years ago.

They're gonna print even more money. You literally don't get a much more captive audience than macOS/iOS users.

OT: I chose to listen to the article rather than read it. Was slightly amused that the TTS option read the sentence "8MK from Detroit, Michigan" as "8 Malawian Kwacha from Detroit, Michigan" Would have thought these engi

Ok that's fair. My biggest annoyances with Teams are slow startup and a bizarre implementation of copy and paste. But in general it pretty much stays out of the way, and has enabled us to fairly seamlessly transition the org to WFH.

I work for a very large insurance company. Pretty much the whole company is on Teams. If Teams was as bad as this thread suggests we would have heard about it (I know this because company-wide we complain bitterly about the anti-malware cru

Is there any scenario from this point onwards, any at all that results in Russia coming out stronger once the smoke clears? Because I can't see any. Seems to me like the Russian govt are now in a situation where they have no choice but

I'm confused about this story. Are the South Korean authorities claiming Kwon is no longer in South Korea? He has a young family (with a child less than a year old) as far as I know, where are they?

I do it often and am comfortable with it. The only awkwardness about it lasts all of 5 seconds when the wait staff ask you if you need a table for two or are expecting company.

So I'm from Zambia and like in most black African cultures we carry our babies in swaddles across the back of the caregiver (like a backpack). [1] I'm not exaggerating when I say that right this minute I can't think of a sing

It's quite interesting that the term "elevator music" is still commonly used to negatively describe otherwise newly released music that one finds boring. I wonder if younger people who have never experienced elevator music ev

Sadly, I get a CPanel error page visiting the website of the profiled company. I'm mulling over building a little office detached from my house so this stuff is super interesting to me.

Indeed. From what I've read, Chinese Tik Tok looks nothing at all like what gets served up in the West. I'd imagine that for China, US/Western Tik Tok is a literal treasure trove of useful information on the state of practica

Does the fact that he tried to flee have any bearing on this or can it plausibly be argued away is irrelevant?

If the will (and financial muscle) was there, this might have actually been the spark needed for a tenacious 3rd player in the mobile OS space.

Very surprised to hear about this actually. Maybe I live in a bubble, but the likes of Google/StackOverflow have been part and parcel of a developers toolbox for many years now. And in any case I wonder how that is enforced. Eg, Someon

So when you google a problem and it leads you to a code snippet that solves it that just happens to be OSS, you immediately scrub your brain and pretend you never saw it and instead instead come up with your own completely independent solut

I get the feeling this entire debate would have been non-existent had this been a Jetbrains product instead. The whole thing is just bizarre when the vast majority of developers constantly look at OSS code daily and lift ideas/patterns
