This is an absolutely mind-blowing quote, thanks for sharing.
Easier to do in some places than others. Public transport is nonexistent in several places here in Texas for example - you have to have a car (or know someone who does) to get to your job in the first place. But…
Local software != map data, necessarily.
One might begin to wonder if there's more than mere correlation between those who adopt socially conservative beliefs and those who seem unable to paint their environment in anything other than such broad strokes...
That still leaves unanswered questions: What encoding - ASCII or Unicode? UTF-8, or UTF-16? What type of filesystem - FAT32, exFAT, ext4? What physical medium - HDD or SSD? OP's question goes deeper than just the file…
Do you have a source to cite for "the approach that the vast majority of purchasers prefer"? That seems pretty speculative. The market can be manipulated or directed by more than simply consumer choice, e.g. by business…
`self`, `this`, `$1`, etc. are also fun to sprinkle in there.
The problem is that this wasn't the only way they were gathering this info, and that they misled consumers by allowing them to turn off a setting that supposedly stopped this kind of tracking, while still continuing to…
Definitely worse, but also the next logical step given that an ad company has achieved relative browser dominance and has such weight to throw around in defining web standards. Moves like this were inevitable. Writing's…
Please read TFA. It answers this question.
"What about $otherthing?" Neither is good, but that doesn't necessarily make the topic you're attempting to pivot to relevant in this situation. Also, Cloudflare (provider of the external service you mention, assuming…
> but it is objectively the best selection system one could possibly devise Your determination of objectivity seems a little... subjective. Maybe this was objectively best at the time but at minimum the race part seems…
Can anyone cite a source for this? I don't doubt the legitimacy, but would like to know more about it.
"Expected" != "Acceptable" though, IMHO.
Having worked in a call center myself at one point, I'd say the primary difference is the directly-customer-facing nature of that work. When a call comes in (and there are often a large number of simultaneous calls)…
You could use grep with vim or nano for quick searches and viewing without even leaving your terminal. Why bother with a GUI at all for that use case?
Unless they have a carefully-worded Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Useful as well to overreaching governments and law enforcement. Certainly not the type of thing you could legally inform your customers of, either.
This comment sounds like something Linus Torvalds would say - completely eviscerating but entirely accurate.
How would you change the date if you can't get around the prompt?
A better option may simply be to fork and add the additional features, not necessarily create a new client.
Oof. I would not want to be the bystander whose house an entire engine fell on, even with a parachute haha
I bought a non-M1 Macbook a decade ago and there were absolutely zero issues wiping it from stock. That was one of the first things I did, and everything performed as expected each time. How did things progress so far…
You might be underestimating the percentage of the population for whom the internet is Facebook. Just like AOL a few decades ago, there are still plenty of uneducated people who genuinely don't know how to navigate the…
The hardware is open-source, you can theoretically update the firmware so you're not vulnerable if a researcher finds a bug after your purchase, there's currently no support for getting it to act as a keyboard and type…
