It isn't the best written piece, but your snippet feels taken grossly out of context. The rest of it: "A common response is to invent new work, ask for status reports, and add bure…

That would be an aside, or a comment, not the point of the article.

Recently learned that one of Ben Franklin's sons was a loyalist. He fled to England after the war.

I didn't get the impression this was totally replacing static routes. Seemed to be augmenting it. But also, while your concerns are valid, I don't think they are large enough to no…

Fairly misleading wording with such lines like "Most of the funding for all of the major browsers is going away"... it makes it sound like it goes directly towards the individual b…

Dig deeper. Use a shovel instead of a spade.

There is an art to communicating that I think people learn around their college years...

On iOS, you can break through dnd with repeated calls (unless you turn that off, too).

That's still awful. We've all become complicit of sites spamming popups after first load. It's so annoying.

A VPN should help with that. E.g. for the Mac folks, Private Relay on vs off was a delta of about 100 city blocks for me.

Agree there was a lot of filler, but to be fair, your odd out-of-place zinger is just as annoying as the podcast. Fairly unattractive. And the cycle continues.

I tried them for awhile, but there was always just enough false positives to make it too intrusive for normal work flow, especially if you're normally a fast typer. In the end, it …

I'm a bit out of the loop but wouldn't hosts have the original source material that they uploaded? Similar to how users have the source images/videos to whatever they upload to Tik…

The child in me is excited, but the adult in me is skeptical of the stairs mode. Unless there's some very obvious physical signal that the skates are in stairs mode, I can see some…

Maybe it was capped in gold or something

Unlike Windows, there's a separation of concepts between "application" and "windows" on Mac. Closing all the windows of an app doesn't imply closing the app. I actually think the W…

I think he's saying sane businesses will stay away from GCP, leaving the hobbyists, and there aren't enough of them to sustain GCP.

I do get excited when I happen to find a mmWave hotspot and can pull 2 gigabit on my phone (for what purpose, I don't know), but after that, life proceeds as normal.

Yep, much of this experiment already happened: Android, Windows, etc. If it is so easy / steady-state to have both experiences simultaneously on one platform, why didn't it happen …

They're not enforcing it, they're simply incentivizing tip offs. Not much different than any other crime tip system the government has run. It's still up to the government to actua…

I have never witnessed anything like his comment. If it happens, it hasn't directly impacted my living here. Still my first choice city in the US.

Police are everywhere in Manhattan. Pre-pandemic, it would be odd not to see several per day on patrol on a normal day to day. In SoCal, I can go days without seeing one. Having sa…
