Why? It's certainly imaginable Obama's cell phone was targeted.

Unless Amazon decided that they want to give DropBox a huge discounted rate for the PR, it would simply cost too much to have stayed on the Amazon cloud.

The problem is it worked extremely well on older Macs.

People assume since it worked great on their old Mac, they can do it on their new one.

Yes, tearing off a small piece of a post-it note seems ideal.

Both S3 and Google offer file storage where you can set that it can't be overwritten or deleted until a certain date. So you get the best of offline and online storage.

I have no idea for System 76, but for less than the cost of AppleCare, you can get next business day onsite service for your ThinkPad.

I find that more convenient than taking your laptop to the store.

But perhaps the manufacturing costs do reflect it? In which case the profits would be much, much higher than normal drives.

You employ licensed caregivers to yell at you in the morning?

Can you explain more? Are you implying you are paying a nurse to open your door and yell at you "get out of bed sleepyhead?" Or is your insurance paying?

Do they actually drive to your house and do this? Do they do anything else for you?

For a bunch of reasons, but one of the most important was it had Google's backing.

You're eating raw meat? Like high quality beef carpaccio? Or supermarket meat you don't cook, or?

Ironically your best bet to get it fixed is almost certainly to post your real address here as part of this thread.

If awk's syntax was a subset of either python or JS, wouldn't it be better to just use python or JS?

Or use a uuid4 for the suffix.

What do you use instead of Google Keep?

What 4k kvm switch do you use? Do you like it?

Luckily Android has that mode. They call it "Lockdown".

Here's some info on it: https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/how-to-use-android-9-pi...

I don't know how many stores they currently have worldwide, but 160 new stores across the entire world is nothing.

That's less than one new store per country on average.

To put it in perspective there are 37,000 McDonald's and 11,766 Wal-Marts in the world. Even Levi's has 750 of their own stores worldwide.

Google has to be careful giving too much favoritism to their own products, because it invites regulation for abusing their monopoly.

So it's often better to just play the same SEO games for their own products that everyone else has to play.

I think it can be simplified even more: "we sell non-alcoholic beverages".

Especially because they own Minute Maid, and Minute Maid concentrated orange juice is still a thing.

In fact Minute Maid's very name alludes to it not being ready-to-drink.

Apple sold 2.2 billion iPhones and 360 million iPads before they stopped reporting numbers.

Assume for every phone or iPad they sell, they average one extra cable (for work, for the car, because it breaks, whatever..)

Apple charges $19 for an extra cable. Assume it costs them $2 to make the cable (and it probably costs much less).

That's 43.5 billion right there. Which even for Apple is not small potatoes. Especially because cables are probably their highest margin product.

USB-C is rated for at least 10,000 disconnects. That's four connects/disconnects a day for more than six and a half years.

Why the MPL license? Have you thought about releasing under the same license as Go instead/in addition?

The desktop version is free and open source. You'll want to start with the desktop version anyway, because it's easier to make your cards on a computer than a phone.

After a while you'll know if it's for you or not. Then you can buy the iOS version.

The Android version is made by a different set of people, and it's completely free as well. It's called AnkiDroid.

I don't see why an original battery would be a fire hazard.

But many laptops will run without a battery just fine.

Thanks for posting this. I'm hoping now that Esperanto is on Duolingo, we will see an uptick in Esperanto speakers.

Definitely empty space!

That's not minor, it's an order of magnitude difference! ;)

Sure, if you have a reliable internet connection, and a desktop computer and a server that you both control, you probably don't need this or mosh.

But mosh (and presumably this program as well) really, really shine with a laptop that you might hibernate for days, and then boot back up, and it's just as you left it.

I don't have any suggestion for an iPhone. But Humble Bundle has had fantastic ad-free bundles of games, where you pay what you want.

Maybe get your four year old a cheap Android phone or tablet and some Humble Bundled games? Then you won't have ads, and if your child breaks the device, at least it wasn't your iPhone.

Why would you think Marissa would be a good fit?
