Are bodily orifices covered by the 4th amendment?

Makes sense, thanks! I love reading about how other cultures do software.

Privacy issues aside, it's kinda cool reading about how Indians use their phones, and also how they use English. I'd never heard "beyond the pale" before, and I'm still not sure what the idea of "multiple India

It's probably mostly videos. Upload the ones you don't really care about to a private YouTube channel, which doesn't charge you for storage, and delete them from iCloud. Keep the ones you really want to keep on both (it'

Damn, sorry OP. I think it's terrible that they won't tell you why they suspect you of phishing and won't let you access the backups. I hope your legal action succeeds and you get your backups back. That said, I think it shou

That site says it's still Chrome only. On Firefox I get this: (maybe it's mobile Firefox) > If you are reading this it means that your browser does not support the WebMIDI extension. > This is a real pity, but with some luck

Sounds like it's learning The Javascript Way just fine, then.

Of course. In the same way that Stackoverflow has for years, or asking a coworker, or a teacher. Programming is much easier now because of all these resources, but that only means the job gets busier and ever more productivity is expected b

I don't agree that a voting system inherently prevents contrarian viewpoints. Discourages them, perhaps, but there's still plenty of disagreements that happen here. It helps that the points are hidden to other viewers, so they s

IMHO: The average US tech worker is overpaid relative to other professions of similar training and difficulty. I don't mean your superstar geniuses that singlehandedly design new algorithms and invent new fields, but just your standard

Then take a look at how Nvidia markets a similar product (GeForce Now). It not only works way better (much better GPU) but also is growing by leaps and bounds every year and adding hundreds of games. And it uses your existing steam library

I don't even know which is which anymore. Like what is the difference between all of those and Google Assistant and Bard and the GCP AI services? Are they all just different models or different products altogether? Maybe I'll ask

Even Crossover doesn't work all that well. It has a small list of supported games, many hundreds of untested games, and even on the games it supports, there are frequently glitches, significant slowdowns while loading new textures &amp

Can't you perform an auth hold on them to verify whether the card has enough funds, without actually charging it? Shouldn't matter if the number was temporary?

I don't think the two are separate concerns, though. Part of the "unionize or not" question is weighing the costs and benefits, and whether the union is likely to succeed is a huge part of that question. In a unionization att

I don't think an industry wide tech union would work. There are way too many people who think of themselves as unicorns (and some may very well be) and don't care about what happens to the rest of us. No one would hire from the un

Find an Astro template you like, ask AI to help you customize it, deploy it to Vercel. Probably would take you half an hour for the first draft. PS The flip side of this is that nobody will be impressed by it. If it just looks like a generi

It's also huge in web dev, graphics, marketing, etc. Every single web dev I know uses a Mac. The hardware guys prefer some Linux variant or another, though. Windows has WSL, but otherwise it's a lot easier to run a lot of the CLI

I didn't realize there were still companies doing this. What sort of use case is it where a cross platform desktop app is chosen over a web app or a webview?

There's just not a big gaming market for Macs (and I say that as both a gamer and a Mac user). It's a chicken and egg problem. Apple historically has not cared about desktop gaming much, and don't provide an easy way to port

Ah, I didn't realize that was a different executable altogether. Thanks for clarifying!

I really hope they don't do this. Apple never cared about desktop gaming and I hope they don't sacrifice the amazing gains that Apple Silicon made in power and efficiency just to support a niche use case that's often better s

Does that put you in a situation where the builder/bundler is made by a different vendor than the router & cache management layer? That was one of the nice benefits of Next when it first came out, vs Frankensteining these basic con

I don't think there's anything quite as featureful. For basic sites, Astro is fine, but it's not as powerful. Vite can be used for basic client or server side renders. Nuxt and SvelteKit have some of the basic features. But I
