I have a generic Intel card on a laptop and forced WebRender to be on via config and wow - it really feel very snappy. Congrats, Firefox team! Fantastic results.

Nonetheless, this has been done in many places and it led to ridiculous results. For instance, if you have a booth at a convention center in Las Vegas somewhere, just try carrying your own box from your car to your booth. Just try! You w

Well, that's a hit piece if I've ever seen one. They even manage to paint spending time with his ailing father in the UK as a sign he was neglecting Apple.

The decision to no longer have political cartoons reminds me of something from earlier days. Someone at the multinational I worked at did a prod a deployment and it went pretty badly. There was downtime of about 15-20 minutes. So immediat

My experience exactly. The dev tools have caught up to chrome and in some ways surpassed it.

That's not what he said. He stated that people contact the company via many different methods: email, twitter, Instagram, etc... GDPR mandates that when the user demands it the company must delete all associated records. This small co

That is a straight up dumb thing to say. Care to explain why "Brent Ozar, IT consulting services" (first company on the list) deserves to die?

I would like to buy this app but having hard time understanding why it requires iOS 12.1 or later. What new API call had to be in the app to justify this limitation? I am on iOS 12.0.1 and plan on remaining there for the foreseeable future

Note the 3 pane layout vs Chrome's 2 pane. I can see more at a glance and more effective use of the monitor - plus I can see the Box Model (or Flex model) without having to scroll down. https://i.imgur.com/Ts3Ygk5.png

I've experienced the same. Sometimes inexplicable things occur in the debugger and I have to switch to Chrome. The superior layout of the tools + handy way to quickly locate events keep me coming back. Hopefully, the tools improve in v

VB6 forms designer was actually really good. I don't there is still anything that rivals it in terms of stability, customization, speed and round-tripping.

NYT certainly doesn't have the same credibility as Infowars, but their name has certainly been tarnished. Just look at Pulitzers awarded for the Collusion story that's been proven to be fake. Or the anti-semitic cartoon they were

I gave up on chasing every new shiny thing MS produces. Winforms work great. They are stable - there are a million packages for it out there and it can work with the version of the framework that's installed with every copy of Window

My were usually gone by 6 months to a year, which isn't great. But then they cost $20. I'd usually buy 2 pairs. I think they were worth their cost.

That's exactly right. And even if they do, it'll be some small article on page 20 equivalent of the web. For Guardian (or others) to really regain the trust, they should have a WE WERE WRONG article on their front page for as lon

I've recently "seen the light" as well. Had been forced to work from home due to an injury - and it's pretty great. The PC setup is what I make of it. My chair is the one I like, not the allocated one. The coffee I dr

Salesforce's Dreamforce conferences are similar. There were 120k attendees the year I went. No developer (or not a lot) would knowingly choose Salesforce as a tool, yet all these folks are at the conference because the employer paid t

In what way is it less performant? The start up is faster on Firefox on both PCs that I use. When there are a ton of tabs, both browsers eat on all RAM, but I wouldn't say that Firefox drags the system down anymore than Chrome. I am

I did, but I am not sure the use case was right. Inherited an old web forms project and tried switching from Memcached to Redis. It didn't work out due to a large number of serialization/deserialization of object stores. The .n
