    Unfortunately not out of the box but the demo runs really well on M4 chips. It can be enabled as such (I'm on Sequoia): 1. Safari > Settings > Advanced > Show features for web deve…

    My biggest concern with an online service is privacy (either bad actors or the web app getting hacked). I used an online mortgage service that was fully paperless with the exceptio…

    I would say Roughgarden's four CS Algorithms courses on Coursera are somewhat more advanced than CS50: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/algorithms It covers foundational to…

    One trick is to apply as a specialist for a given role. During the interviews ask questions that give you a sense for how easy it is to generalize internally. You can automate your…

    Here are a few notation resources I've found helpful when teaching myself computer science: - Mathematics for Computer Science: https://courses.csail.mit.edu/6.042/spring17/mcs.pdf…

    Curious if you're being facetious or genuinely flummoxed but it looks like a poetry periodical published in the format of industrial freight.

    The purchasing analysis is interesting as it doesn't seem to take into account ads on mobile games. Here's a direct link to the press release: http://www.theesa.com/article/65-amer…

    Here's how I use this forecasting tool which has made it great for planning my bicycling commute in the Bay Area these past smoky days: 1) Enable the Near Surface Smoke layer under…

    I used to rely heavily on pinboard.in but I noticed two things: most of my devices are iOS & MacOS (Safari & iCloud everywhere) and I almost never went back to re-read articles I h…

    I do ask myself this every time I use one. Often, for me, the reward (convenience of getting home quickly or making the bus on time) is worth the risk (minor chance of getting tick…

    Totally agree. I live in the South Bay and occasionally ride a Bird scooter between the work bus and home. There's no way I'm riding on the bike lane without a helmet and I can't c…
