Why would Verizon want to keep a minority stake in Yahoo? Seems useless to me.

How is this possible when other reporting suggests that Yahoo just sold to Apollo for $5B?

Everytime I see an article like this I think "wow I need to utilize the potential of console.log() more". But then when I get into debugging that all goes out the window and I just use what I'm most comfortable with, which is

$1000/month is actually really impressive. I have seen a couple of others that offer some free credit but not nearly as much. For example Azure only gives $200 for your first 30 days https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us&#x

AirTable is also a relational database editor with a nice UI. I don't know if you could compare the two though.

Does anyone know what company she is referring to? Seems like Facebook could be likely.

You're right and I think people have tried but nobody has made a killer product yet. Everyone is either trying to copy Salesforce or too niche.

I'm just waiting for Salesforce to be disrupted. It has become so large and all encompassing that it is hard to get into for the lower end. Seems like a ripe area for a low end competitor but I haven't seen anything great yet.

This is really cool! I wonder what the restrictions are and if we would ever be able to write to a SQLite db like this in the future. This could push more to the front end without needing to write apis.

After reading your comment I think I agree with you. Most software nowadays requires you to update if you want it to keep working. You cannot play an online videogame without updating to the latest version. There is typically no way to use

The same is happening with automobile UX design. Everything is going to touch screen interfaces when physical buttons are so much more practical. I want a car manufacturer to buck the trend and go full Cherry-MX on all of their buttons. It

Personally I agree with this youtube video by Linus Tech Tips https://youtu.be/ljApzn9YWmk I think the M series chips could be the new standard. However, I am skipping this generation. The Gen 1 products by Apple have histo

My first reaction was "oh no..". Audacity has to be one of the most beloved and widely recommended software of all time. It's not often that an aquisition like this goes well for very long. After looking at MuseScore and Ulti

Thanks for reading! The search portal is in Vue but there was an additional Wordpress site mostly for marketing.

Azure is lacking a lot of usability when compared to other cloud providers. But free money is enough incentive for me to try and push though some clunky interfaces. I've learned a ton with these projects and wanted to share.

Really good write up. If you've ever listened to an episode of "How I Built This" from NPR, this is the opposite of that. But still equally informative and useful.

You are comparing crypto currencies to stocks. In that case what you said is true. But I think the fairer comparison is crypto currency to a fiat currency. There is more friction involved in using crypto currency to make a purchase. It does

How does your iMessage integration compare to AirMessage? I've been using AirMessage for a couple months now on my new Android phone and it is about 80% reliable. Images and videos also take significantly longer to processes than if I

This makes me feel gross. I know what they're doing is totally legal, but it just feels wrong in this circumstance.

This is really cool. I lived in Cambodia for a couple years and everyone has a phone number. Question: are there any possible issues with multi-sim card phones? It seems like everyone had 2 sim cards over there. Could you somehow link them
