We now also have sign-in modal appearing after clicking on a button labelled "Generate 4 images". There are clear contextual clues that images will appear on the side after clicking on the button. Where do designers learn to be so

Thanks for digging this up. It is quite a bit slower than I expected. At 2.4kbps, it might be enough for ssh.

Updates need network access. If the phone isn't on a network, then it won't reboot. Police can't really pop out e-sims, that means the police needs to keep the phone in an RF proof bag/work in an RF proof room.

The Mozilla Foundation has no members. The directors elect the next set of directors, so the current group sets the future direction of the foundation. There isn't really a way to recover the original spirit of the foundation unless th

They seem to believe that the extra battery life of the Snapdragon when running ARM software justifies the price premium, when most consumers would be mostly running x86/x64 software in emulation. The reviewers pick up on that point, c

Starlink seems to be protected by the fact that it could launch satalites cheaper than the adversary. That advantage will hold until the opponent gains the ability to launch small satalites at a low cost. Eg. Opponents launches and pre-posi

It would be much simpler creating a walkable area as part of a large scale urban renewal/redevelopment project than trying to retrofit an existing area. I wonder why there is so much focus on transforming an existing area. People shoul

Looking at the screenshot, I noticed that JetBrains has started using an underline to denote selected tab. Could someone explain the reason for this, instead of say, drawing the shape of the tab in the background?

When they rebuild my local IKEA a few years ago, they replaced the large maps with the line map as described in the article. So it's interesting to know they kept the large maps in some IKEAs.

Google also likes to provide a feature flag to re-enable the old feature for a few versions. Parts of the community happily re-enable the feature, hence the media doesn't pick up on any outrage. By the time the feature flag is removed,

I actually wish programs do not put content in the Title bar area. The title bar area is meant for users to move the Window around. Try opening Microsoft Word, make the window narrow and drag the window. You have to hunt for a small bit of
