With VirtioFS on the scene I just don’t have this experience anymore. Docker for Mac is significantly faster than it used to be, particularly when using named volumes. Mutagen also improved the experience but I prefer VirtioFS as it’s “buil

US sports are already headed there. Proprietary apps help them control (eliminate) the secondary market in two ways: they broker transactions between people (app-to-app) and prevent scalpers from transacting paper tickets. MLB, NFL, NBA, an

Book series targeted at young readers benefit from this composition. My 8yo son follows a few series and he laughs about it when "the formula" reveals itself, but still enjoys the stories. You have to remember a novel – even a sho

Correct. The json data type is less performant and stores the data more or less as lightly indexed text. jsonb optimizes the storage format and allows for more JSON operations, such as extracting individual keys. For this product, if the su

An acknowledgment of what? Apple does not owe you anything. You chose to buy their products, with or without the need for dongles. They have allowed feedback and the market to correct this by offering revised products.

This is a slick tool. I like how the thumbnail and PDF preview is live updating with changes. It'd be a really nice addition if the tool could output the resume data in other supporting formats (plain text, Markdown, JSON, etc.)
