2018 MBP is Intel unless you're referring to the T2 chip?

Reading The Book of the New Sun atm. It's quite a dense read, and you may find this useful: Lexicon Urthus: A Dictionary for the Urth Cycle. I find myself having to refer to the le…

Full disclosure, I know the author Bernard, as an ex-colleague and a good friend. We've been using the author's product (Gist) for about a year at my current company, mainly for ma…

Unless it's carbon monoxide poisoning...

As it turns out, Malta did just that - the referendum result was not accepted by the opposition party, and it was settled by an early general election.

Paradox Games, Football Manager (not FIFA), etc - I don't think the market has died at all. There will always be a lot more players who play the mass-market games of course.

Instead of restarting Xcode you can also flip the file target, changing it will trigger an index.

I've often wished this feature actually, especially when submitting pull requests, and you'd like to showcase the new features. I've often had to either embed a video link or conve…

I wear CIC (Completely-In-Canal) hearing aids all day, about 16 hours - it does impact wax in the ear canal, but otherwise no adverse effects. Thinking about it, this functionality…

Seconded - this really should be a top priority. I know there are some good apps out there, and I use them, but it would be so much better to have a responsive design.

Just curious - did you think of using an in-browser emulator? E.g. http://bellard.org/jslinux/ ?

Perhaps Pluto's gravitational field is not strong enough to trap meteors?

That's WordPress for you ;)

Humans have been building stuff for millennia. Software, on the other hand is still a relatively new field.

I know I can use an adapter, but it's one more thing to carry around, lose, or get stolen. It's an extra cost to the user, and one more device dangling off my laptop.

The problem with the current Apple approach is that it forces you to make the decision about how much RAM you may need beforehand, and charges you extra for the privilege. Making t…

I'd like to buy a rMBP, but the non expandibility annoys me. I have mid 2012 MBP 4GB RAM, 512GB HDD, and I was able to gradually upgrade it to 16GB together with 960GB SSD. It is c…

Until you're missing an ingredient and need to go all the way to the supermarket. Multiple times. With a binary, you're just reheating a frozen pizza.

I am from Malta, where students get paid to attend University, in the form of stipends and government grants. It can stand to improve, but I see nothing wrong with the idea. You st…

Quite right, but you are sharing the service and hardware with thousands of other users.

I don't use Linode, but isn't this essentially what you expect when you're using shared hosting on a budget? If there's an issue with the hardware, they need to migrate the VMs.

Looks like you're describing reddit + subreddits :)

Given that ssl certificates are free nowadays (e.g. https://www.startssl.com/ ), how was this not an issue before?
