Both POP and IMAP can work offline. Point of data - iOS mail works perfectly when you’re offline and syncs the changes when you get back online. These protocols were designed during the days when data was at a huge premium. Fastmail’s own a

Every one of these large enterprises, including the cloud providers themselves, like stability. So they sign multi-year multi-million dollar contracts that expect a minimum spending and offers a negotiated discounted price. It’s also not ju

It is an issue in all fields. The reason why we have delays in major infrastructure projects and why software projects are notoriously hard to plan both boil down to unplanned and unexpected changes to requirements. The fact that it’s easy

I use this a lot in my scripts - handy when you want to capture the output or execute a command in a different directory.

All we need is one interviewer who absolutely hates interviewing to ruin the experience for the candidate and probably throw them off balance. It happens in Big Tech much more often than people are willing to admit. I get where you are comi

They did shut it down before it took off though. And made a half hearted attempt to merge the features.

India probably uses a lot of foreign expertise. It’s either the French or the Russians that supply the reactor. That would change in the future I suppose and cost would drop. Also, corruption.

May be that’s where the problem is. Interviewing skills should be part of the responsibility. There could be a committee that can set and evaluate the process and questions. However, this will hurt the ego of a typical engineer so much. No

I have to make a list of it sometime. My primary issues are with how apple deal with multiple devices in somewhat close proximity. The HomePod always picks up the request irrespective of how close or far I’m from it. My phone might be right

Not disagreeing but you can't just give up and coast along either. Don't get me wrong, I've been doing it for a couple of years and getting ready to quit my job because of it. It gets frustrating and a tool that's not us

Well, if a spec has no validation procedure, compatibility enforcement or certification, what’s even the point? If the switch isn’t actually working as intended they shouldn’t be allowed to call it usb-c. There should be some minimum mandat

Not to mention Palo Alto is extremely anti-density and housing. No choice but to live in San Jose or SF and commute.

That might change. They’ve launched a new autonomous landing system and seems like more is coming https://discover.garmin.com/en-US/autonomi/

Is it though? I’m not even a designer but I can see the color coordination isn’t ideal and a bit harsh. Sections are not delineated clearly. There’s isn’t a clear separation between heading and body in styling. These things are designer 101

The reason for the fear is the possibility of bias against the consumer. If companies pay for the cost of arbitration and everything is behind closed doors, how do we know we can trust the process to be fair? I’m not a lawyer or a legal exp

How did a home rental company or a media rental company become a tech company?

This was true in the US. I don’t know about Europe. But it wasn’t true anywhere else. Even in the US it was dominated by Motorola (and BB) as a result. Motorola didn’t have much success outside of Razr in the rest of the world and Nokia and

This particular sequel is really bad. Plenty of issues with the script and cast but to me the disconnect between a character that doesn’t age and the actor that does made it really hard to watch

More like half of that. I did web development in 2012. We couldn't have done it without jQuery.

For everyone of these "grey beard" stories I can point you to a "young gun" story involving a fad of the week framework that's just over complicated and over engineered and doesn't even solve anything. A long t

Apple already has the SE for the low cost market. They have positioned the mini as the mid-range. What they're missing is a high-end small phone. I'd happily pay for it.

That was always the case. This simply alters who can enforce it.

There's rule by majority and then there's individual rights. Pure democracy prioritizes majority rule and does not guarantee any right to individuals. A Republic has a constitution that usually lays out the fundamental rights of a

Based on the cancellations of some beloved shows, I’d also say they give a disproportionate weight age to binging.

I’d recommend checking your local library for their DVDs. Mine has a pretty good collection.

I don’t think that’s how they’d view it at all. In their eyes it’s all these “spurious” lawsuits they’re protecting their client from within legal means. Arbitration is expedient and much cheaper.

You don’t get a lot of spam when you give a different email address to different companies. They can’t correlate with other data to tie your accounts together. The value of spam marketing is being able to cross sell taking advantage of the
