Very happy with my M1 MacBook Air (16GB RAM) so far. Web programming is a breeze. Xcode is great. Surprisingly good at running games. However Android development is still a ways off. Android Studios is not officially supporter, neither is

This is a biased article. I would not let another company handle authentication or notifications for my apps. Payments, yes.

Great article and I think there should be more discussion around the usage of anti-depression medication. Imagine you have a bullet in your arm. It's causing a lot of pain. Using anti-depressants is like putting a Band-Aid over the b

I just wanna say I'm glad I quit OSRS 4 years ago. I shudder to think what my life would look like today if I didn't...

Is it "China" or "Chinese Company"? The title makes it sound like the Chinese government is making GPUs.

I agree with that. I think what gave me the motivation to continue with the project that succeeded was the fact that the product got ~200 daily users immediately after launch. I still remember the many, many times I wanted to give up on th

The world is run and shaped by "jerks". Whether you like it or not. If we look past 21st century culture and look back upon history... - Caesar (killed/enslaved 1 million+ gauls) - Augustus (killed anyone who posed a politic

According to the example you gave (which isn't the fairest, since you started at June 2020, which is the peak of the Internet bubble), the stock market still did manage to recover. It took 12 years but it did recover, and now SPY is j

Government printing money is not a bad thing. Printing money can be a bad thing if used improperly. But generally having the government be able to print money in an emergency has many benefits.

There are going to be both competent and incompetent people in any sizable organization. I don't think it's fair to use extreme examples like that EMT getting killed as a generalization of the incompetence of "authority"

Banks, especially big established ones that have been around for hundreds of years, are well established businesses that work hand-in-hand with the government to ensure safety of both a country's economy as well as the bank account of

Imagine you are a manager/executive - would you rather be the manager of a stable happy ship, or would you rather be a manager on the Titanic while it's sinking? A sinking ship needs a better captain than a stable ship. A big comp

Yeah I didn't like much before. Then he went out and tweeted "tesla stock too high imo" and I was like yo. Paid more attention to him and began liking him more and more.

You know that the alternative is that the workers lose their jobs, and can't pay rent and feed their kids. A lot of people in USA are living paycheck to paycheck, and it's reasonable to say blue collar workers are more likely to b

1). I believe that Musk is treating this as it should be. The problem is that nearly everyone is over-reacting. A year from now, I believe that the world will realize that this was one giant over-reaction. 2). Is there really a need to ov

So my website is running Django 1.11 on Digitalocean. I'm potentially interested in using your software but I'll need some convincing. Right now updating the site is very easy. I use FileZilla to upload the new files and I would

The author's website is an example of a product that is "done in a weekend". It is very annoying to this post on a 28" monitor... the text runs from left to right with no margin spacing.

I wish I ate healthier during this period of time... Unfortunately I'm finding it impossible to order a grocery delivery right now (I use Walmart). So I just end up ordering Uber Eats twice a day. I cringe when I think about how much

In the US alone, hundreds of thousands of people die a premature death due to obesity. In fact, obesity is so bad in most first world countries, people are calling it an obesity pandemic (sounds familiar). Does that mean the government shou

Some feedback for you. Personally I'm not very comfortable with inputting all of my finances into an app. Maybe others see it differently. I personally think it's a bit of a taboo topic and would prefer to keep it private in my o

I personally am very interested in a browser extension. Right now it's almost instinct for me to open a new tab in Chrome and start typing "red" to go to reddit. I don't want to use a site blocker to completely block off

I'm in Toronto. I used Foodora for the longest time because their delivery fees were great ($0.99 and no "service" fees). 6 months ago, Uber Eats seriously stepped up their game and I have been only using Uber Eats. The de
