Probably just the simple economics of cost of land vs cost of construction of a new building + ongoing maintenance. I'm sure if they ever saw need to place this in a city they would construct a building. But for now,…
Thanks for taking the time to respond!
I believe the usual answer to this is that you need a certain percentage of working poor to do the types of menial tasks we haven't been able to automate yet. If they could make more money elsewhere who would do those…
That is an interesting take on it. I guess my problem with debloating is two fold. One, when I bothered trying to debloat my Windows gaming machine in the past, many of the changes would be undone when windows updated…
If you're in Canada, and want to stop supporting TurboTax, I recommend giving SimpleTax.ca a try. It's free for everyone, but you can donate after you file your taxes if you want. I was also very impressed with their…
I actually work on a JS project that needed to heavily rely on macros to reduce build file size (the project is from before ES6 and rollup.js). I ended up going to MetaScript [1] as all of its syntax was based on…
Possibly Expensify? There was that news that came out a bit ago that their "SmartScan" actually fell back on Mechanical Turk [1] even though it was sold as a AI-type thing. [1]…
Yeah, I have to agree here. If this is a build server, I'd argue that they should be running Windows Server and just disable the UI all together.
It's weird that this is being talked about as if it's not something that companies/sellers have been offering for ages. This "special" car vinyl with the air channels is 3M's Controltac product. You can find many…
There is quite a bit that can be done. IANAL, but I can point to this episode of Planet Money that has a similar situation: https://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?stor...
Based on the information in the article, the following items would have been required to stage something like this: - Foreknowledge of the bombing by the Syrian/Russian coalition, including time and place. - A high…
Heh. Someone should have reconsidered that title given the recent controversy with Nest devices having hidden microphones.
Not to be a cynic for the sake of being a cynic, but with a service like this, how can they guarantee that they will continue to respect privacy moving forward? What's to prevent changes in policy within the platform?
>Not sure this is the type of article for juniors. Most definitely. I worded that poorly. I meant "my juniors" as in those with less experience than I, but not fresh out of the oven devs.
Wow, this article does such a good job of concisely explaining these concepts I've been trying to put into words for so long! Definitely going to be sharing with some of the juniors.
