The article should be titled "Life Before the Invention of CAD." There were lots of CAD applications before AutoCAD, and plenty since, as well.

My experience largely mirrors the OP's. I find reading and writing in darkness to be very pleasant with the new backlight, but YMMV. Lack of backwards compatibility with my existing RM2 styli is somewhat annoying, but I'll deal. T

It's called phased array. Pretty mature tech now.

I didn't pay for Clear so that I could bask in my social status at the airport. I paid for it so I don't have to go through the PornoScanner™, which is ridiculous, demeaning, and unnecessary. For the life of me I don't know w

I can relate. I had wanted to write my own version of Asteroids for 40 years. Maybe not as ambitious as an RPG, but then again, I didn't write a straight clone; I made it my own way, and I finally did ship it. So hats off to this guy,

Spot on. The question is whether Vision Pro is the next iPhone or the next Newton, and I have no clue.

Some editor should be told that "Elon Musk says" is not the click generator it may once have been.

One of the best, most original, innovative, and fun games ever made. M.U.L.E. was a work of art, and I'm so happy that somebody has kept it alive.

So Gradle is not a build tool, it's a tool for building build tools? That's wonderful, but that's not what I want. I am trying to solve problems in my particular domain. I want to spend my time solving those problems, not wre

He doesn't name names. It's just "the woke left." I'm pretty left, and I have a big problem with China's treatment of the Uyghurs. I don't buy that this piece, or its author, is serious.

What he picked up was that he didn't even have to hide his contempt for the law any more. He can't just flaunt it, yet, but he doesn't have to bother working hard to hide it, either. Laws are for little people and Democrats.

Wunderlist lives on, rebranded as Microsoft ToDo. As far as I can tell it's the exact same product, same feature set, etc. I think they made the transition unnecessarily clunky, but it's all there.

I love Org Mode too, but I still haven't pried myself entirely away from OneNote. There is still just too much stuff in my OneNote silo, and Office Lens is too convenient for capturing paper-bound information. I've settled into a

The article has been disappeared from archive.org, due to "content." Whatever that means.
