"Take back"?

> ceteris paribus I enjoy googling a new phrase as much as the next person... but really? From WP: Ceteris paribus or caeteris paribus is a Latin phrase meaning "other things equal…

Developers are undervalued quite a bit in most places outside SV. (And maybe overvalued a bit in SV.) I agree about your main point though. It's time to put up (salaries in this ca…

Special-sized keys like up/down and backspace are more problematic. Mine is going back for warranty repair next week.

I guess Samsung is just not at their top of their game in terms of pushing differentiated product lines for their M.2 SSDs. Perhaps (or perhaps not) they should learn from Taiwanes…
