   Great stuff but .net core copied most of its best features. You can make a very light self hosted web API without IIS now.

   ASP.NET web API. It's amazingly simple and fast. With .NET Core it even runs on Mac & Linux now.

   I can't tell you how many iOS users are tricked by "Oh, I can get Chrome and Firefox on iOS" that don't realize it's just skinned webkit. Totally dishonest.

   I came here looking for it and had to search for "assage" past 24 hours to find it. Something is up. There are things on the front page that are older with less votes.

   My guess is that it's some other manufacturing defect and they were just in such a hurry to say "Yay we fixed it!" that they completely overlooked it before they shipped the replacement devices. While the stories are all over

   Those .vscode files are where it stores the per-project settings that the poster you replied to said they really liked.

   I'm in the same boat. VS Code is also much faster in loading and scrolling, at least on Windows.

    Whenever any censorship is done in the USA is the last few years, it's always under the guise of "stopping hate speech". They just take it upon themselves to define what hate speech is, of course. Many, many people have call

    No, but it's pro-Apple bias that makes you think that this only happens to Samsung. https://bgr.com/2016/10/04/iphone-6s-battery-explosion-fire/ https://bgr.com/2016/09/30&

    Hold your 6S Plus up next to a Note 7 viewing the same photograph or high resolution video. If you don't see a large difference, head immediately to the optometrist.

    The f/2.0 aperture on the Pixel is the widest yet for a smartphone, if I'm not mistaken.

    Retina in this sense is an Apple marketing buzzword for high DPI anything. Back in the day they used to have higher DPI items, but today they still put 1080p displays on their 5.5" phones while most other flagships use 1440p in the sa

    Android is Linux on the phone. It's Linux kernel with stuff on top. Check out Replicant. It removes most of the stuff you might find objectionable.

    Will this work on Windows Home editions (that ship on almost every laptop you buy at MicroCenter / Best Buy / etc) or will it require Pro versions because it has some underlying dependency on Hyper-V?

    This exactly. Too many people make Chrome sites and Chrome apps instead of WEB apps.

    You forgot: - It's very easy to hire / train C# developers. Finding someone with a decent amount of F# experience is much more rare, at least in my area.

    If only there were some kind of HUB that people could use for their FOSS projects that provided free hosting on giant piles of bandwidth! It would be nice if it used GIT too! Man, that would be pretty sweet.

    I'm not sure that syncing to cloud is really the best for most personal users, at least not anymore. If you have multiple devices and use SyncThing / etc to sync between them, you're protected against device loss and damage

    Features / usability over perceived improvements to privacy / security. If you had actually used both, it would be clear why people use Telegram over Signal. Signal doesn't even have a desktop client for any OS!
