A bit trigger-happy to publish this just a few days ahead of Apple's annual developer conference. The article would have more merit after WWDC. Anyway, Apple is rarely the first mover in a given technology space, so I wouldn't be

All browsers break sites. In the past few months we've had our stuff broken due to bugs in Safari, Chromium and even Firefox. But the situation is nothing like when IE was alive. Webdevelopment is much more pleasant now. If I had to pi

Yes, it would be great to have the best of both worlds.

To be fair I think it is a proof that the person can learn all of the leetcode stuff and therefore they might be clever/disciplined enough to learn new tech as well. Although I don't find it very relevant. When I was fresh out of

I once had an interview that I really liked. It was for a bank. They give the candidate some messy, done-in-a-hurry code (but not purposefully obfuscated) and ask them to refactor it to the best of their ability. The interviewer sits next t

Both Steve and Elon made stubborn decisions, some of which benefited and some of which hindered their companies' products.

"Elons whim that resulted in great innovation" as ghostcluster put it referred to gigacasting as three pieces, not gigacasting as one. sho_hn's comment could have been read as gigacasting being a failure. It is not.

That article states that they are retracting to their previous method of gigacasting. The one that other carmakers are starting to use too, inspired by Tesla.

I don't mind most of the common Tesla complaints, but this one I can agree with 100%. The auto-wipers work ridiculously bad for me and it would be a non-issue if they had just used a dedicated $2 part, like everyone else does. It is a

I have an app and I'm trying to figure out the pricing. I’m offering a one-time in app purchase of life-time subscription. Currently it costs 6x the monthly subscription cost. I'm worried that makes it too expensive for a simple a

by yreg 2y ago
Unfortunately the freemium + subscription model usually works so much better money-wise that it's difficult to justify publishing a simple paid app with upfront cost.

They are supposed to disclose the vulnerability after fixing it, so their users know they need to take action. That's what the original commenter rightly complained about.

by yreg 2y ago
No it doesn't. What kind of an excuse is that? When a password manager maker finds a vulnerability they should absolutely tell their users to regenerate their passwords!

Sure, there's a lot of valuable information and I often append my web searches with “reddit”. But I no longer go to reddit to spend time there, without looking for specific information.

For me, search is the least of reddit's problems since it is easily worked around by using a search engine. The changes to the API pricing were the final nail in the coffin for me, but the content has been going downhill for a decade a

I think they did answer it. Streamlining means that they no longer want to spend resources on this. They don't mind that their customers paid them for it.
