gnrlbzik··on Verge Redesign
certainly something off...

was busy before, but manageable, this is taking it to next level, removed all the extra space : )

Some elements are growing on me, but still...

gnrlbzik··on Mall real estate company collected 5M images of shoppers
indeed, I almost fell off my chair : ) If we do not read it in comfort of our home, why would one do so walking into the mall.... and there is not even a precedent to do so....
gnrlbzik··on Whose Computer Is It?
fascinating... at least you could still remove these from the list : )
gnrlbzik··on Wisconsin report confirms Foxconn’s so-called LCD factory isn’t real
yes, but just may be it take bit more time to show some sort of turn around. But otherwise yes you are right, and that part of my comment should of been rephrased : )
gnrlbzik··on I made a Tesla Accessory brand
All the good luck to you sir. Maybe reach out to people like Rich Rebuilds and such, to market your stuff.
gnrlbzik··on Wisconsin report confirms Foxconn’s so-called LCD factory isn’t real
Not sure how to react. Mostly very pessimistic about this whole thing. When I originally learned about this years ago, I assumed this just going to be some sort of stunt to pump money out of local economy. I guess time will show.
gnrlbzik··on AMC Theaters will no longer play Universal movies after on-demand success
Always wanted movies to be available right away on-demand, sometimes you just do not want to go to theaters...

Also not sure if AMC in position to do stuff like this right now..

gnrlbzik··on Why are Soviet math textbooks so hardcore in comparison to US textbooks? (2017)
When I moved to Canada in 98 from Belarus, I had minimal language knowledge. I was also half way through school year. After my testing was done I was put in to next grade.

Even though I was not the best student in my home country, prolly mediocre at best. With some subjects being better than others, still it was surprising to me.

By next school year I also felt that science classes were way behind what I was used to, and even though I could only read and barely understood instructions, I still was able to do very well in all of my stem classes despite lack of language knowledge. Honestly it was kind of annoying that I had to do things that I already have done in previous grades.

As I have started getting better with English and started paying less attention in class and less to my homework, eventually I fell somewhat behind.

gnrlbzik··on Small business rescue earned banks $10B in fees

gnrlbzik··on US Constitution – A Git repo with history of edits

gnrlbzik··on Edward Snowden on The Joe Rogan Experience [video]
And i think he would take this path, but i do not think he can get a fair trial right now.
gnrlbzik··on MacBook Pro with i9 chip is throttled due to thermal issues, claims YouTuber
Is this due to their focus on iphone and ipad? Probably and very likely, if I remember, most of their hardware talent had been pulled at some point to work on things that bring more money, these products get less attention. Looks like mac line upgrade cycles suffers due to that, don't quote me though....

But on the other hand this is good that it a came out, should be fixed in next upgrade I would assume, no wonder we got huge bump spec, people voiced their concerns loudly.

gnrlbzik··on The relationship between social media use and well-being
I have quit facebook for most part, use messenger to sometime send messages to friends, it opened up lot's of free time. I still use Instagram, but that is so much more manageable and less invasive.
gnrlbzik··on 2016 Stack Overflow Developer Survey Results

gnrlbzik··on SoundCloud could be forced to close after $44m losses
I do not upload any music on to sound cloud, but never the less, it is one of my primary ways of discovery. I would happily pay $2-4 a month to so called get rid of "ADs" and support them.

gnrlbzik··on RegExr: A website for interactive regex prototyping with syntax highlighting
I've been looking for something like this on mac since I moved away from windows long time ago, no RegEx Buddy, such a great tool too. I think that I discovered regexr a year ago. This is such a great tool. Much appreciated work from @gskinner and community.
