App Store search is so bad that I won't use their search at all anymore. I search the web and grab the link from the app maker's website.

I do the same, but I switched from cert-per-subdomain a couple of years ago. They're either using Passive DNS logs or a historical dataset.

36 bays and only 24T of storage? Can't you get that in a single disk that costs less than a kilodollar?

I have a pool heater and an air conditioner, and I'm running both at the same time. They're fifty feet apart, but this thought crosses my mind constantly.

What do you mean? I ask because I find Apple's wired EarPods to be less... selective than AirPods are—by that I mean they'll pick up more background noise whereas AirPods seem to only transmit my voice—but EarPods' clarity ex

I was looking at roughly the same, m5 max, 128G with 4T. It was ~$6000 out the door. The same config on their site is now $8000 before taxes and AppleCare. A couple weeks' notice would've been nice.

I get that, but I don't care. I want the PDF (or CSV) emailed to me as an attachment because that's the workflow that doesn't suck. Everything else sucks in one way or another, and much of it is security theater.

That'd be nice, but I'd even settle for the plain pdf attached to the email.

That was the point as I read it. Payload signature verification is a good and sometimes desirable alternative to transport encryption when the payload itself isn't secret. Highly-cacheable resources like game and OS updates are often i

I saw a helpful ad once. The organic search results didn't offer what I needed at all, but the ad took me straight to an e-commerce site that sold what I wanted. I had it in my hands at a reasonable price about 5 days. It was for a Nin

That is absolutely fascinating. I'm gonna have to pay attention the next time I open an iPhone box. I'd bet they're sitting on their faces in the box. I really wonder how the wireless data transfer works.

I thought it really excelled at displaying the timeline—it was quite novel to see a timeline for a video I was watching that didn't occlude any part of the screen—but quite annoyingly it would go black due to inactivity. And of course

I've wondered for a while if it would be possible to do that with a USB FXS adapter[1], and something like a Pi, but you'd basically need a soft modem of some kind to make it work and the only module for Asterisk isn't up to

I don't remember my ipv4 addresses either, but I recognize them as mine when I see them. I've never recognized an IPv6 address or prefix used in my networks.

There needs to be a happy medium. I don't like reduce motion because it amputates many of the spatial arrangement metaphors inherent in the iOS UI. My biggest problem with authoring shortcuts is that the editor goes out of its way to o

You can get close with a VM, but there's overhead in device emulation that slows things down. Consider a VM where that kind of stuff has been removed, like the firecracker hypervisor used for AWS Lambda. You're talking millisecond

That device was explicitly made with "not enough" memory, because if it had enough, it'd cannibalize a significant portion of their higher-margin products' sales. I'd argue that if memory and storage were still cust
