My only concern with VW is whether they'll be able to produce those battery packs as fast as the cars. They're certainly ambitious, they want to make 100k the first year and the plant they're using can make 1,500 a day which sounds insane when you hear Tesla is only making 5,000 a month.

I think we're very close. You can already tap and hold on the spacebar in iOS 12 and it turns into a trackpad like control for moving the cursor in textfields.

True at some point that will happen, but not in the foreseeable future. Web developers also need to take in account that there are large rounded corners cut out on the screen which will most likely remain even when the notch finally goes away.

The WebKit folks had a great blog post on how to do all of this and use the new env variable in CSS. It was proprietary back then, but I believe it's on the standards track now Android is copying the notch.

The fact Google is making a search engine specific to China to meet their requirements for censorship opens the door for that very specific thing. First it's hiding results that the government doesn't want seen. Next it will be reporting who's looking for censored topics. It's a slippery slope.

They have both SaaS and self-hosting options which cost considerable amount of cash ($99/mo per user for the most expensive option) for any large scale deployment. They're earning plenty and they need to fix what is valuable to their customers.

Especially when technologies like E4X came out to make writing and reading XML in JS so much easier. Although I don't miss SOAP at all.

Mac users don't even have an official client anymore.

It looks like it would help prevent the recent incident, but the confirmation screen at the end doesn't make it clear whether it's a test or a real thing. I know there was that big screen at the front, but if you're confirming something you need all the options presented again to double check.

I literally just typed in "Ferry Building" on Apple Maps and it took me to the correct location. Also One Ferry Building San Francisco, CA 94111 the correct address listed on their own website took me to the right place.

With a few exceptions its not legal to bring foreign drugs or re-import drugs (made here and sent overseas and brought back) into the USA.

YouTube defaults to serving WebM on Firefox, but on a Mac there is no hardware support for video decoding WebMs like there is for h.264. BUT there is an awesome plugin called h264ify that will force YouTube to use the h.264 codec. I've been running it a while and it stops my fan from kicking on when visiting YouTube.

AdTech firms have been tracking you for a long time and in some pretty ingenious ways. One of the most recent was using the Battery Status API. Just imagine if they focused their efforts on something useful.

As a side note DoubleClick has been own by Google since 2007.

I fixed his bug by changing the height on panel from 100% to 100vh. No need for extra markup like his fix plus as someone else mention iOS 11 doesn't have this problem and that most likely means the next desktop version will that fix also.

Really surprised by the specs and cost of this thing compared to what's out there. Might be the reason Google is making their Jamboard.

I had this same issue on XP running in a VM that wasn't set to grow on a Mac.

If you want to get technically Atom is their largest open source project, its just happens to be under its own organization name. Plus there are quite a few people who don't work at Github that contribute to it. The same can be said about Google and Angular.

A lot of the research papers linked in that sources of that article are comparing reading a book vs a computer screen, not specifically on a kindle like device. A kindle would given you more multi-sensory input just by the fact you're holding it like the book compared to a 80s computer monitors in the research papers.

You got some rendering issues in Firefox and I'm going to assume non-webkit based browsers. The Linear gradient in the text doesn't show. And the animation has a glitch when its done.
