    Double seems more like a feature than a product. I feel like Copilot could easily implement those value-adds and obsolete this product. I also don't understand why I can't bring my…

    Hey, sure, let's destroy the Earth and its inhabitants with zero regard for anything! As long as we get to take vacations to the moon! Right? This is preventable, and should be pre…

    Nope. Greed. It costs way more to build out physical ergonomic interior controls when they are permanent fixtures for several model years and any changes require new physical eleme…

    This gets into hairy territory of derivative works. I think this will be an uphill battle for content creators until laws are updated for the new state of the art. Prior to the unf…

    Amprius has 400+Wh/kg that are commercially available. I'm sure they ain't cheap, but the tech exists. https://amprius.com/products/ Edit: well, I'm a dummy and OP said mass-produc…

    Fun exploration and exceptionally impractical. Love it.

    The parent commenter said this: > People [..] freak out about this because [..] in 99.9% of companies, running code on an engineer's workstation would immediately be the highest po…

    I've never had Windows Defender use a noticable amount of CPU. It is, by far, the least intrusive antivirus/anti-malware that I've used (and I've used them all). Unfortunately, I c…

    The refactored version is doing what pipes would do in a language that doesn't support pipes; it's reordering the statements into execution order rather than having to use a mental…

    The point is that the "tree" is not exposed to the user. I feel the author makes this extremely clear.

    The only person that made this about the CISOs gender is you. OPs point was about the lack of credentials, which would apply to anyone. I think it's a reasonable conclusion to draw…

    The same could be said about the use of images on a site. The solution is to develop sites with accessibility in mind. Use a screen reader; experience what ALL your users will expe…

    I think it's important to remember that candidates should evaluating the viability of the company as a potential future employer. This seems like a reason to look elsewhere. They d…

    I'm not sure why this is being shared if the site is wholly incomplete. Outside of the TODO links and bogus videos, two of the listed libraries point to invalid or archived repos i…

    Agreed that Apple should be consistent in their enforcement of their rules. However, you can opt not to use the App Store. If you think that will impact your product, then this con…

    I am a software engineer and I was once asked during an interview at a large hedge fund to pick a side and debate why war is justified. When I pressed them about the relevance, the…

    I wonder, for a container plant, if you can reliably use weight as a measure of soil saturation. Of course plant growth would add to the weight, but I suspect that could be account…

    Could it be argued that the knowledge of which finger (or part of your finger) you use for authentication is equivalent to a passcode?

    These anecdotes seem a little light on detail, so it's hard to really see how Fred was treated poorly. Through the course of my career there have been personality conflicts. I thin…

    The iPad is a tool for consumption rather than production. For those without an iPhone, I think the iPad is a terrific device for consuming content. I think that if the iPad could …

    I find the thought of communicating directly with someone a bit anxiety-inducing, but I would really love to volunteer for something like this. I would be happy to transcribe a let…

    When the app is forced to coexist with cheap/freemium applications in the App Store, it can be easy for consumers to make an apples-to-oranges comparison. That is, Angry Birds offe…
