I had MBP's from 2010 onwards and re-sold/upgraded every year or so. Last year the touch bar debacle started and I also wasn't happy with the 16GB memory limitation when others were offering 32GB. Also I need to do a lot of W

The lack of Slack on-prem over HipChat is a deal killer for major Enterprise. You can justify "cloud" when Microsoft is running it and has millions of dollars to put into feasibility and security studies and audits. Letting a stra

I've only used make a very little bit... but pretty much anyone can understand it for basic use. This looks like you're writing source code in another language that follows a kind of template, which you then compile and run, and t

Is this going to be a massive maintenance problem in ten years time? I thought that’s the lifespan of panels. Usually the problem with building lots of infrastructure is it gets expensive to maintain. It happens with roads and buildings. Wi

I felt sorry for the author. But then I reached the bottom of the article and see that site has that most awful and obnoxious banner advertising there. Now I don’t feel bad.

Do you feel it’s technically superior or just people following the fancy new tech dragon (or something else like because it also lets you spy on employees, if it does, I don’t know)? (Not that it’s really fancy new tech - checksum AV have b

You’ll get half the value and it remains stable - versus you get twice the value and then it suddenly nosedives and everyone questions your performance as CEO because “you must have made it happen”. Is that possible?

Works on MacOS 10.13.2. Looking back, the Mac patches were to address KPTI (Meltdown) which is separate to Spectre.

I guess after a year of slaving and treating coworkers like garbage they don’t want to bond especially over non alcoholic drinks.

We may need some clarity in the problem are you experiencing. If the problem is that you can’t focus long enough to do non-operations work whats the problem with that? Are you unhappy you’re not coding? If so then ask for a new hire to take

I think I'm equally innovative as when I was young. But when I was young I was working for young small companies that didn't have any rules and you could do anything. Every company I work for now is absolutely groaning under the w

My favourite was LSL2 because it was so absurd and LSL3 because it was so complex for a game at that time (and also absurd). But yes LSL6 was a masterpiece. Finding the “Where’s Dildo?” items was a stroke of genius.

Is it possible that data isn't getting bigger - but that the people who work with it just want to process larger data sets than before? I mean before they'd train a model of 1,000 inputs and then test it against another 50 and cal
