ubreakifixit is the only place that can do a glass replacement and keep it with warranty. If your screen is dead, and not just your glass cracked, I don't know. A screen replacement was $160.

I had a Pixel which literally slipped half an inch to the floor and the screen cracked. Verizon told me that it was damage that I did and thus they wouldn't replace it. I complained that no phone should just crack from such a small fal

Because many of the base infrastructure libraries are compatible as long as they used interfaces ( grumble grumble os.File ). I would be very surprised if this doesn't implement net/http/ServeHTTP

This. It's actually more idiomatic to use the same name, then you can often just sub out one library for another without any hassle.

a) Big US enterprises are under attack from state-sponsored actors on a daily basis, so it's not that weird. It's not like the NSA weren't caught with their hands in the cookie jar either. b) If you name the state you think i

I'm not entirely convinced that people who have a bad experience with Windows support would then assume Azure support was poor, similarly with Amazon and AWS... Why should Google [Product Area X] and Google Cloud be any different?

FWIW Google Cloud Support != Google support in general. My interactions with Cloud Support on the other side of the fence has led me to believe they are very committed and working very hard. Yes, you have to pay for it. But once you do, reg

Can you point me to instructions for this setup? I'd love to try F# (having dabbled in Haskell) on macOS, but I keep getting the feeling that F# really needs Visual Studio to shine... which is a feeling which may or may not be accurate

I'm surprised people can use Iron at all. I tried really really hard to use it and found the complete lack of documentation (or, worse, outdated blog posts) made it impossible. Is there some magic necronomicon I'm missing? I had b

"Putting all this nice stuff into practice" is the kicker. I'd really like to do FP work, but I'm not willing to leave my current employer to do it. I think there's basically a skunk works deal of Haskell at Faceboo

Bad programmers are always going to be bad programmers, no matter what their age. Bad programmers are inflexible and unadaptable; unable to keep up with new languages or idioms. Ken Thompson is about as old school as they come and he wrote

Fair enough; some more noodling over the signature made it a bit more obvious than it seemed banged out at the back of an OSCON presentation. I think the point still holds. Maybe just not for that one.

Yeah, once you actually get to the text, it's really good and clearly improved from 12 months ago when I last got the free time to play around significantly. Thanks for the bug ticket :)

I'd say rustdoc is pretty rough. It's very hard to navigate the rust stdlib vs, say, Go, and when you do find what you want, it's often specified in some very cryptic manner that seems to require a PL PhD. It is a really big

I was really excited, then very disappointed to see the code I type is sent to your servers. This immediately prevents it from being used by many businesses, including my employers. Super bummer :( Please get the on-prem sorted out pronto!

Do some Googling around the idea of "procedural literacy". Coding is like reading, maths, other sciences, in that while you don't need to be very good at it, you really do need to know what computers are and are not capable

I think Google thought that the software patent issue was going to go the other way, where some sort of unwritten agreement of "Let's not screw this up for everyone" would be reached. So the idea of paying $4B just for patent
