I've been with Fastmail for almost 10 years now. No fuss, just works, good price for what they deliver. Never had any issues.

Glad it's not just me thinking that. The amount of UI bugs I encountered in the last few macOS versions is fairly annoying. Very often, when I switch input keyboards between English/Mandarin, the popup that appears to indicate the

I have no idea what they can even do at this point. I have young Japanese friends (early 20s) and they all tell me the same thing: the cost of raising a child is too high in Japan (considering the wages). When I talk to people it seems that

That's not going away at all though. But I am glad we now have more paid options available. Tooling is important and people that do good work should be able to charge for high quality tools. I would be much happier in a world full of t

why shouldn't they? they had to take the time to make the app and get it up on the App Store. it's totally fair to charge for work you've done. the fact it's simple is irrelevant. what matters is the value it brings to t

Does anyone understand what a channel file is? Some sort of patch/dll that a driver loads?

MS could've leaned more towards user-space kernel drivers though. Apple has been going in that direction for a while and I haven't seem much of that (if anything) coming from MS. That would have prevented a bad driver from taking

I really wanted to like open library but last time I tried it (over a year ago tbf), the UI was extremely slow and frustrating to use. I just gave up and started tracking things in a csv file.

That would actually be seriously cool though. Even with a full-sized VR headset I'd be willing to spring for it.

Yeah, they somewhat hinted at it in their WWDC announcement about private AI. They are running models on apple hardware. If you look up their jobs portal you can see some roles that also seem to hint at that (OS and kernel teams)

None. Just schedule the work you need to do and have some standards for yourself and keep working on it. If you feel tired after a while you can train yourself to push through it if you really want to. Anyone who's ever run, lifted wei

It would be nice if Mozilla would add more context around it. That said, it’s freaking exhausting how these dumb actions keep being taken by governments all over the world. It seems like every month there’s some new crap going on

If you're just focusing in the European Union, it's definitely Ireland. Stripe, Square, Microsoft, Google, etc will all pay more in Ireland than they pay in any other EU country. The problem with Ireland is that you will get no re

This comment really rubs me the wrong way. Striving to maximize productivity should be a core value for anyone that works. We should always be looking to improve and to make things more efficient. This is a core value of capitalism that peo

I don't get your point here. What's the problem with high refresh rates? Games deal with it no problem, and they do way more complicated stuff than a UI with a bunch of buttons and text. > Are immediate-mode GUIs up to the task
