    Dial up into an air gapped network defeats the purpose of being air gapped. I would think the bare minimum standard is that there is no way to change anything in the control system…

    It can definitely be confusing. For example, traditionally still film cameras used 35mm film, but cinema cameras also used 35mm film. However the cinema cameras capture the image v…

    Those could just be individual commits on a branch. Why does it need to be a stacked PR? That concept really only exists within the interfaces of these kinds of tools.

    For the longest time I could not stream YouTube on my Google fiber connection without constant buffering unless I ran my browser through a socks proxy to a server outside of the IS…

    It's not all sunshine and rainbows though. I've been lucky to have Google Fiber for a number of years and I still get buffering issues with YouTube and YouTube TV.

    1) I'm not the sole user of these TVs. 2) If I wanted a "dumb monitor" I would have bought one. 3) When I sit down to watch something, I put my phone away and in a different room s…

    I also own a TCL Roku TV and the interface is easily twice as slow as my Roku Ultra. Right on the home screen is a giant ad(unless you have network adblocking). Over the years Roku…

    Well I've had my free gsuite account for almost 15 years so you still have some time before you get to Google levels of screwed over.

    I believe there is a technical challenge they are not willing to overcome. My Google Apps account has long had broken integrations with almost all of the "new" google services. The…

    The downside of that system is that the 10% at one school is definitely not equivalent to the top 10% in another school. When you compare rural school districts to the suburbs of t…

    The city of Austin has a chilled water loop and more. It's pretty neat how it all works. https://austinenergy.com/ae/commercial/commercial-services/d...

    I can relate to this. My parents lived in a 22 story building that had water leaks throughout the entire building from construction defects. Until my mom literally got herself elec…

    Signing doesn't keep Gatekeeper away, you need to also get your app notarized, which involves uploading the app to Apple's servers.

    It's not just big tech. I've seen multiple startups struggle and fail because ultimately they are building things to build things, not to solve the problem they set out to solve.
