I have no clue, as I don't use it. I imagine most people use it for sharing pictures and use other apps for chatting.

Kind of besides the point, but Facebook Messenger, Snapchat and iMessage has very good penetration, people usually have two of the three. And everyone just fall back on SMS when if they need to.

I don't know a single person that uses WhatsApp, and I live in Europe. We have a tendency to think that everyone adopts the same things, especially when it comes to technology. This has been demonstrated to not be true multiple times.

I think the short answer: It depends. In some cases it's not enough to register the domain on a legal entity, it needs to be a person, and that person needs to exist in the company and needs to be contactable. You cannot get around thi

If you want EV certs you definitively need more information than that, part of the idea is that there is public verifiable information that only the owner can change.

That's just shy of the cost of building (drilling?) the longest road tunnel in the world, in Norway, which has really high labour costs. So I'd guess it goes a long way (pun intended). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

I bet they just connect (or rather, emulate) a physical keyboard connected via Lightning/USB, and use it as an input device.

Simple, it's easier to pocket some money when you do it in cash. Going on a limb here, the cafes and bars you've frequented aren't the well established with a long history-kind.

Except for emergency systems. If you have two or more independent systems that are able to stop, should any of them should detect an anomaly, you are far more likely to survive a partial system failure. The end result of all systems identif

Your breaks will always work, regardless of any electrical systems. You might lose boosters, but I doubt it, given that the car still has electrical power. Some newer cars come with electrical parking break, and those will refuse to engage

This is complete nonsense, go into any car without starting it and pump the breaks.

Give it a few minutes and it will start to complain, and then you will lose engine, but not electrical power.

There is no such thing as "manual break override". You will always be able to use breaks in any car, regardless of what systems they're running. You might be without a booster, but still. You can also just shut the engine dow

Lots of stuff is completely off with this. If you're stuck in cruise control at 120km/h for an hour you will drive 120km, not 100km. Also, what about just turning the engine off? Or... break.

There are lots of legal implications when one company buys another, even if they don't merge. But these implications go both ways, so it can get funny with things like GDPR.

This law only affects "allmennaksjeselskap" (ASA), which there was less than 300 of in Norway last time I checked. In short they are listed on Oslo Børs (OSE) and are publicly traded. For smaller companies, also called "aksje

You can't really do anything else than suppress symptoms on a chronic illness. ADHD is a chronic illness. You don't use SSRIs to treat ADHD. Full stop. I'm not sure what your point about SSRIs is, it's used to treat enti

It's satire, and a little funny. They have the correct pronunciation for Norwegian at least, it's similar enough in Danish and Swedish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f488uJAQgmw

If only Apple and Google engineers would understand that it's almost impossible to mistype A and Å on a qwerty-keyboard, it would be awesome.

I know that it's quite common to have your own geothermal heat exchanger on the country side in Denmark. You don't have to do it at a large scale. However I imagine it's better to do large installation if cost is an issue.

Maybe they can even get around to fix the issue for more or less every non-US ASCII keyboard where they seem to think character that look the same, are the same, or that they are often mistyped. In Norwegian we have "a" and &qu

Just tried it out, and it looks very good. It was a perfect way to demonstrate ARKit to colleagues. But for some reason it flips the board upside down.

You just have to be within the EU/EEA to be covered by the GDPR. How this will be enforced in the future is hard to tell, but you should still be covered by it.

They seem to have intentionally done this, by setting ::selection to transparent. I don't understand why some people think this is a good ideal, for colorblind people this is a real nuisance.

You're not limited to just browsers, and a perfect use-case for dnssec would be in combination with sshfp records for ssh, incidentally something GitHub heavily relies on, and where support is much better. Adoption is slow, nobody argu
