Crow are the full embodiment of "evil genius".

I did about 10 surf road trips last summer in a concerted effort to really "get" it. To provide some context - and at the risk of sounding like a jackass - I typically take to a ne…

I lol'd at "[...] they think I'm psychic". Nice one.

Not. Even. I felt forced to upgrade my 6 because it was unbearably slow. The battery? Excellent. In fact, at the time of trade-in, it was lasting longer than my iPhone X does brand…

N/m, found it in your profile. I'll be in touch!

Hi DenisM, what's your contact info? Are you hiring a lead role? The industry is very intriguing and would love to learn more.

It's "super simple". There's one pricing policy and it's hardcoded. As layers of abstraction are added in support of richer features, so too is complexity and hence "not-so super s…

Absolutely. I was investigating this last week. Most articles have suffered bit rot where nearly all linked sites that once allowed non-verified accounts now require verification.

Signed up and ... it's a news letter. sigh

The client can hold onto the token indefinitely, the server doesn't care. But next time a request comes in with that token it will be expired. The server validates the timestamp wh…

Web tokens, for example, don't necessarily include just a session ID. Some include the full session details within its payload. This can be quite useful, actually, because it offlo…

"Space race is warming up" - You verbalized perfectly what I've been feeling lately. So exciting!

Are we supposed to congratulate WhatsApp for doing something that should be expected with 1.0? Furthermore, your default is incorrect; sharing info is opt-in.

This is the same spin that Über employs themselves. It's clear the ultimate goal is to remove human drivers completely. Their rhetoric otherwise is so transparent it's insulting.

At the risk of sounding flippant ... shouldn't you be dogfooding to find your engineers?

I just moved myself, wife, and toddler out of Cole Valley to Seattle. We had to leave because - you guessed it - cost of living. My position is head of engineering for a small SaaS…

Wow wow wow indeed! This is a gem of a way to experience a most heralding moment of "mankind".

Late to the party but ... Google Maps. So buttery, extremely reliable, and so many form factors where the experience is the same: superb. I'm afraid it has become such a daily util…

There must be 1000s of places along train tracks in the US alone where a strategically-placed derailing device[1] could wreak the same, if not more, terror. I'm unconvinced planes …

My point was we shouldn't have to wait for security checks at all. There are many other high-human density targets for terrorism (buses, trains, buildings, etc.) none of which requ…

And yet this is still abysmal. Talk to me when my plane onboarding experience is exactly that of a train. A recent study showed something like 90% of threats are missed. So remove …

Yeah, I didn't agree with the name criticism either. For the small sample of us techies, sure, it has some negative associations (but even still not significantly so). For most, ho…

I've completely switched to ScriptCs[0] for my scripting needs. Works on all platforms that Core supports. [0]: http://scriptcs.net

@garrett I beg to differ. At first I thought it was a terrific service. After using it twice, their true business was revealed. They leave advertisement cards on vehicles with tick…
