When did they not allow SSH apps? I remember using an AppStore SSH app on a first gen iPad about when it came out.

To be more pedantic, it's probably safe to assume this is not even 0dB. Most people would probably consider a computer under 25dB-30dB as "silent" since most rooms background noise are around there. Linus did a silent PC buil

Using the same algorithm I got 0.175 or so seconds in Java. Sample code: https://pastebin.com/duYF2QfE This was on a "Early 2015" rMBP with a 3.1 GHz i7.

Just arm chair speculation, but it seems like any religion that promised happiness or how to be happy wouldn't be wildly successful. Not many people turn to religion when they're happy, and promising happiness to a bunch of sad pe

Have you tried taking your phone to the Apple Store? I haven't noticed issues like that with mine.

They also happen to be a sponsor of the podcast, so I could understand why he hasn't written a glowing review on DF.

I think that this can be a fundamental shift for the iPhone and iOS without being a paradigm shift that puts apple years ahead of the competition. I also didn't pick up an implication that this puts iOS years ahead of android while rea

I loved that gesture, but I was shocked how many of my friends/coworkers didn't know about it. I think the iPhone X up and over arc is more reliable to trigger(once you figure out not to do up and hold).

How was Apple late to the game with edge to edge displays? They only started appearing on flagships in 2017, this is their first phone release since then. Not to mention most of the "edge-to-edge" android phones are not edge to ed

Getting rid of a physical button is hardly a decent hardware feature. I would've been massively disappointed if apple had gone the android route and just slapped a virtual button i can tap onto the screen. If you want to say apple ripp

You can also wake the phone up now by tapping the display(similar to the watch). Also it might be configurable in settings but the notification content is hidden on the X when the phone is locked, after FaceID they become visible.

That's not entirely true. The way kitchens are set up/configured, what goes into dishes, how stations are set up, etc can change quite a bit from place to place. Additionally there's usually kitchen slang/words for most

Before the AirPods came out I had a pair of Jaybird X2's. For me at least being able to hang them around my neck when not in use did not help keep from losing them, it's the REASON I lost them. I lost my Jaybirds in about a month

Treating people different based on their gender(or race) is kind of the definition of descrimination. That said, equality shouldn't mean a loss of civility, politeness, or hell even being romantic. It also doesn't mean treating ev

As some one who took a sociology 101 class in junior college... nothing in his memo is original/new/insightful. This is a classic nature vs nurture argument.

Your article states 87.7% efficiency in gasoline refining. Energy density of gasoline is 34.2 MJ/L: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_density This means there was 4.8 MJ of energy spent to create 1L of gasoline

A lot of these I don't think are different phrasings, they're different in meaning as well. A closer rephrasing with similar sentiment is: "No one cares" All the phrasing you provided are combinations of: 1) not applicab

It's not just about wether a machine can do something better than a human. Firstly you need to account for costs. If a machine can do it perfectly, but a human can do it 80% as well for 40% the cost, the human still has a job. The cost

"Compare that to the modern AIs outperforming highly trained doctors in diagnosis." This sounds exactly the same as automation replacing skilled labour. Lots of things today that we take for granted used to highly skilled markets.

I think you're correct. Pure gold is extremely hard to dissolve or oxidize. There's three common methods, using a mercury amalgam(which is an alloying, so the gold is still unreacted), cyanide, or a mixture of hydrochloric and nit

This analogy works pretty well. The door gives both secrecy and privacy. If you want to keep people from doing drugs in the bathroom (their secret) you'll have to give up some privacy(people seeing things they know you're doing).

To use your example, portrait painting was essentially killed by photography. If you were a painter, or are trying to be a painter today, things don't look great. However what you haven't addressed is the impact of reducing the hu
