Internships are very competitive at places like Google. At less prestigious companies, they're less likely to be paid well and are easier to get.

I recently finished reading We Are the Nerds , which is about the history of Reddit (the company) and its community. One of the interesting parts was about the moderator of a bunch of subreddits that were full of all kinds of borderline il

Java’s GC and lack of pointer arithmetic should push it a little further to the right, no?

Sign In with Apple and Google’s equivalent are supposed to be the solution to both passwords and 2FA.

I find that about half of my DNS requests hit the network cache and not upstream, which makes it worth it for me.

Other OEMs want to grow up to be able to make mistakes and still retain a loyal following.

The market for indie apps is far better on Apple devices in general. More people are willing to pay for an ad free, nicely integrated app than on Android.

Yes. Every state has treated it slightly different. Many high-population states are under restrictive rules right now.

Users want to be able to log in and see their data from any device. If the whole idea is that there is no server that the data is stored on, then you can't have a sync function, can you? Do any of you have an example of a good offline-

UA strings have never been an accurate indication. If you're not using JS, then you probably have no reason to be sniffing the UA string to detect browser features, since most of those features are JS-related anyway. It's an upgra

Safari is WebKit. The trouble probably isn't the engine, it's ITP messing with some analytics thing.

I think the reason that C++ and Rust are compared less often is because the advantages and disadvantages of each are clearer. Rust has better memory safety and concurrency, is less focused on backwards compatibility and so doesn't brin

Regardless of whether the parent comment is wrong, you'd be much better received if you started your reply less dismissively.

lobste.rs does “What are you doing this week[end]?” posts every week or weekend, which are nice for that smaller community. I think once a month would be perfect for a community the size of HN.

Aren't the AP tests far more difficult than the SAT subject tests? That's what I remember at least for chemistry (maybe?) back when I took both exams.

Most of the people I call are willing to use FaceTime Audio or Signal (in the case of FaceTime Audio they probably don't even notice that they're using it). Since everyone who calls me is usually on a cell phone anyway, I don&#x27

Fair enough. What are you using yours for that requires it be so light? Apple is probably trying to market the iPad Air in that space.

Ummm... iPhones? iOS and macOS share almost completely the same kernel ( https://github.com/apple/darwin-xnu ).

The 2016 MBP (the only one I've used) has very poor thermals too. The much lower TDP/benchmark point of the A series means that they're surprisingly competitive with the poorly-cooled MacBooks. If MacBooks of that era had bet

I think this is a decently unpopular opinion---6 hours of battery life is atrocious for the use case the Air is competing in.

Is that at all comparable in speed to a SATA SSD? I know that Apple uses NVMe SSDs in MacBooks, but if something over the SD card bus were anywhere near the speed of any internal SSD that would be very impressive.

For the kinds of people who wouldn’t be running Linux on the other laptops, maybe they just like macOS better than Windows? It’s not like Hackintoshing is trivial. It’s not necessarily a developer machine.
