Not great honestly, the only redeeming factor was the onsite delivery eta logic (since SKU locations and customers location was internal) and the lift from displaying that on the site ("get it by tomorrow"). The costs, receiving S

SFN was just deliverr anyway so it will likely continue in that sense under flexports banner. Since Shopify sold it as an equity swap they still have an interest in promoting it and keeping it in house. The bigger picture here is that Shopi

I think it would be meaningful to introspect that data since clearly it's not encrypted using https - this would be trivial with a MITM proxy on the gateway. All of this to push your own platform without any data backing it up aside fr

The sales of the Maverick have really made a compelling case for an even-smaller truck that is one size down. I don't even think ford thought it would sell that well. The Maverick is still a giant truck compared to these.

I see these all over the place in asiapac, especially at resorts for staff and maintenance to get around on smaller pathways in lieu of golf carts or runabouts. It makes a lot of sense when you consider that they are easy to move around on

I remain confident that it is impossible for a "startup" or properly competitive standalone org to exist under the roof of Google. From reading these comments, it looks like this is at best mitigating some internal conflict.

The privacy policy alone on whatsapp is what is keeping everyone I know off of it. It's egregious. FB is 100% snooping on what is being discussed, and if they are now moving to fully client-to-client encrypted on ALL chats (not just

Glad that Pat is making good on his strategy to offer IFS to everyone, even bleeding edge process nodes. I really think this is the only way to truly mitigate the dependance on fabs that are entirely in the East China Sea region. If Intel

High efficiency heat pumps with built-in defrosters (or "heating strips") can often provide full heating capacity (ie: 48,000btu for a 4 ton unit) down to -12f, with reduced output at even lower temps. The COP efficiency drops qu

Most ultra high efficiency heat pumps are already using DC inverter technology which allows the compressor, fans and pumps to run on fully variable speed. If Electric Air is planning on using DC components for their heat pumps, they could

You can upload a custom ISO and run it - as long as your OS supports virtio and the defacto virtual newtork cards it should be fine. I recall running a windows vm from an iso that was uploaded.

Yeah the CS isn't excellent but it is mostly for self-supported workloads. Like OVH - if you need support for anything beyond provisioning/troubleshooting things outside of the VM, it's not the best choice. If you compare it

The way their DR is setup is that clients of NYSE (brokerages, OTC systems, firms, banks) all have IP (not dns) connections to the primary NYSE production datacenter and a full second set of IPs for the DR site. It's not a "dns a
