But you don't help fixing problems by telling a lie about them, you just make it more difficult for those trying to tell the truth about the issue. It does not seem Daisey understands that he has hurt the cause he claims he was trying to h

In my user support days at the university I studied at, I remember receiving many students on the brink of crying and with a corrupt 3.5" disk in hand. They had their only copy of their thesis on this floppy and were desperate for help. Mo

Maybe, but one year you might not need the kind of complete change of direction that he managed to pull off earlier and which made the company what it is today. While Apple could probably be very successful with their current direction for

But they are also a very easy target. Immigration services do a job that is never going to be popular, but in the end their actions and decisions are mandated by a political leadership. It's too easy to single out these agencies in a hatef

I tried setting IntelliJ IDEA to Emacs key bindings, but I had to switch back to the default bindings. With the Emacs-like key bindings my fingers automatically expected a lot of things to work that IDEA plainly did not support (like kill
