Sure, it's a minor annoyance to have to hold down a pane to be able to close apps, but in the end, closing an app is only necessary when an app is malfunctioning, which doesn't happen that often. (Yes, it's happening more rig

This article is bullshit. There is a reason that insurance companies pay for chiropractic visits but not for faith healers.

Line speed has nothing to do with it. The speed of the transmission from card to reader is dwarfed by the latency of the transaction as a whole.

Your design is very nice, and has much to recommend it. But in my opinion, it kills the advantage Live has over many of its competitors. It takes up too much space, and is too busy. Live's UI is busy, but not as busy as many other DAWs

That is only relevant if there is no significant professional Python 3.x development taking place. There is, in fact, significant 3.x development taking place, and that number is growing - exactly as one would expect. And by significant, I

Thank you! How did anyone think it was a valid metric to lump goat's milk in with fake milks (plant-based milk substitutes)? Did they break this down further?

I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I agree that they are approaching this the right way. It's just not the "Finder for iOS" that many are calling it. The president of my company is one such person as you describe. He

The Files App does not exactly work like Finder. It gives you access to a central file store that an application must support before your files show up there. It does NOT give you the ability to browse the iOS filesystem.

It isn't just realtors that Zillow hurts. Their zestimate is nothing but the roughest of guidelines. It is little better than a general market trend in a geographical area. I am not a realtor, but a homeowner who learned, from experien

I would imagine the easiest way to steal a Tesla is to create a make-shift faraday cage in a truck bed and then disconnect the power.

A lot of the move to requiring laptops, particularly district-supplied Chromebooks, is not driven by an effort to improve education per-se, but to improve the education workflow for teachers, and to go paperless. Students are given a Chrome

A while back I purged my Facebook account of all content. This was a long and tedious process, deleting things one-at-a-time, as there appears to be no way to do this in bulk. My account is now a blank page, no photos, tags, profile informa

I'm the wrong person to answer that, perhaps, but with OTP you get a task broker / monitor for free. With Go we would be back to piecing together a system using other tools such as AMPQ or similar. It also isn't as easy to wr

Correct. Not saying anything more than that. The BeamVM/OTP is a better fit for long-running high-concurrency fault-tollerant systems. That's what it was designed for. I have not switched to Elixir/Phoenix for my other web de

Serum is the easiest synth I have ever used. There are a lot of controls, but they all make sense. And if one is just starting out, they can ignore most of the controls and focus on just the basics: Waveform, envelop, filter. Then move to m

Well, technically some DAWs have a notation view (Logic and Sonar, for example), but it's pretty much useless.

Yes, thank you. This is particularly frustrating when you play with an alternate tuning such as DADGAD. Tabs are pretty much useless then.

What surprised me was how he makes melody lines: Playing with chords until he likes the progression, and then pulling notes out of the chords to form a melody. And of course it makes sense on one level. But I think melodically and tend to d

There are certainly people who have natural ability, and compose melodically, applying varying levels of knowledge in music theory. There are other people who can't make heads or tails out of a keyboard, compose a tune in their head, o
