Bring back the whole cast including TJ Miller (sober or not, he brings it) ... but not Middleditch. https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/celebrities/202...

Do they work 12 hours every day (mon-fri), every week?

I think the main takeaway is that India (well, in the state of Karnataka, population 64M) now allows 60 hour work weeks for non-salaried people of both genders. Not as an exception, but as an average. And that Apple was behind this. It&#x27

A Swedish white collar pension fund (Alecta) was the 4th largest owner of SVB. It's been big news over here today. I think I have some pension savings there. Their investment in SVB represented 0.6-0.7% of their total fund. I assume th

More likely, TBH, in this case: Just one random person with a strong conviction and sub-par execution. There is a meta-effect going on here: Your complaining about the now vastly downvoted comments is now filling the top of this topic.

In first few the years following the 2000/2001 dotcom crash the Swedish Tax Agency realized they had a golden opportunity to move away from expensive and fickle consultants to a competent in-house team of long-term employed developers.

Do government agencies generally have that kind of liability in the first place?

The cost of an IPv4 address is around $50. Annualized it's a few dollars. So, that's the baseline for where CGNAT makes financial sense. That's a lot less than the cost of an Apple TV.

Perhaps they have a limited development team and chose to focus on matters that bring in the most dough and/or make their average customer the happiest.

Prediction: CGNAT processing costs for gigabit subscribers will become neglible in the medium term (3-5 years). Not that it's wildly expensive today...

Yeah. I meant from an antitrust perspective.

Hi! Do you remember what the limit was that prompted this costly measure? Addressable code space from the CPU? How could there be a limit in the megabytes, not gigabytes? I don't get it.

Antitrust laws in US/EU make that unlikely. Maybe they could buy Samsung Display though, if Samsung the conglomerate got desperate enough?

In general, Apple suppliers have to take the “financial risk of storing and absorbing the cost of unneeded parts,” but that’s not the case for Samsung. Good job standing up to a bully, Samsung! I imagine TSMC is the one other supplier tha

Now you're making me uncertain. I was pretty certain it was the code/binary footprint. I remember suggesting they look into using any MMU for doing code overlaying/swapping [and the DS doesn't appear to have one...]. The

This article doesn't give Microsoft enough credit for funding the whole thing. I was going to write that the Internet remembers, but apparently that has its generational limitations. :(
