Eh. I regularly update my Windows gaming PC and every time it takes a long time to restart and apply updates. Far more than macOS and Ubuntu. And this is not new behaviour.

Not OP but it could be very much possible and that's what OP is trying to say. Just taking it on Intel's word that they haven't done it is not the correct way to go. For the truly privacy minded, it's better to err on th

Do you guys hire remotely from all over the world or only US/Canada? I've been following the careers page for a few months anxiously and have been totally afraid to apply. Few days ago I checked, you guys had updated the remote op

React and Angular can get very confusing for a first timer in front end. The official tutorials leave out a lot of magic happening behind the scenes. I tried to complete the official angular tutorial and even after completing it, though I c

Honest question. Not to ignore any flame wars I have been following this surveillance and privacy debate. I understand that encryption cannot go both ways. We cannot create back doors that are only available to the good guys. Add to this th
