Most probably are

Waze is pretty cool, especially with alerting to the presence of nearby speedgunning cops, but the battery drain is too much for me to tolerate, not to mention the obnoxious "integration" with Spotify.

Did you use any server or client game or rendering framework? eg. Phaser, pixi or the like. And when you say the simulation is running on the client, do you mean it is client authoritative and the server just acts as relay? What sort of actions do you send?

One of the main benefits being reported here is the instant purchase, however with Amazon Prime Now (1-2 hour delivery of some items in metropolitan areas), this somewhat goes away. I recently used Amazon to buy new computer parts to upgrade my PC, and when they arrived and I started assembling it, I realized I had gotten the wrong RAM. So even at 9pm I was able to order 2 sticks of decent 8GB ddr4 ram and get it delivered that same night by 10pm and finish the build.

What I prefer about Amazon are the reviews and selection. Even when I'm in Best buy, I'm on my phone reading Amazon reviews for the products I'm considering and exploring alternatives.

Any source for this?

Maybe you also didn't notice you can scroll down on the slides to get more info on the headlining topic (I missed it at first).

Got a pretty strange one:

> Question: When was Julius Caesar executed?

> Aristo is not sure about this one...

> Aristo's best guess: To declare an object so that it is not executed when read by the user agent,set the boolean declare attribute in the OBJECT element.

> Confidence: 2.58%

I guess it's not much of a history buff, but likes computers.

> assuming they control equal stakes in GitHub

That seems like a pretty big assumption. And as mentioned in other comments, what about the employee stock pool? That must account for some chunk of it also.

That sounds very intrusive. We should consider the privacy ramifications before tracking our users like that.

Shhhh... Or my boss will hear you

Good book about exactly this is Orwell's Animal Farm which is an allegory to the Russian revolution itself

I see middle-school kids biking home from school in my suburb and when approaching the intersection (not a very busy one, mind you), they all dismount their bikes and walk across the street. I know that's what you're supposed to do, but c'mon, they're kids.. When I was that age my friends and I would race across the street without helmets flipping the bird to the crossing guard, so it's a bit unsettling to see them all obediently get off their bikes and single-file across the street, even when there are no crossing guards in sight.

Soon we'll be bartering again, except this time for user data and other ultimately useless things.

What about Tuesday?

Just curious, why do you use a mechanical disk?

You know Slack, VSCode, and Spotify are all built on Electron? Better leave it at that if anything.

I'm familiar with the case, that's why I mentioned it. My point was that although they lost the civil suit, there weren't any criminal proceedings against C-levels. I understand the argument of negligence being as guilty as malicious intent but it creates a sweeping blanket that's hardly fair or enforceable.

I agree with your principles in theory but it's just impractical.

By that extension if a McDonald's drive thru employee accidentally spills hot coffee on a customer, the CEO is responsible and should be charged with assault?

Not a landing page but generally good advice here: https://goodui.org

Which might be seen as a provocation by the Chinese Government of the US to destabilize it's citizens.

To wit it was not "driverless" as there was a supposed "safety driver" behind the wheel.

This is great advice. Thanks for the anecdotes.

I'm a native English/Russian speaker who took a few Spanish courses in high school and college, and recently decided it would be a waste if I didn't finally learn to speak it fluently, at least like a child. In some sense, I suppose I already do. I can read many things and spoken slowly enough can understand partially -- but there is some mental block, mostly in the smaller, connecting words and other "minor" details that are actually major and completely central to the language. So I drill duolingo from time to time but it seems like mostly a waste of time since I know a majority of the words, and the ones I don't know such as "curtain" aren't critical for me. I always had the idea to visit Spain for several months to force myself to adapt to the language but that's been impractical thus far. I knew reading would be good too and your story of learning Japanese is inspiring, so I think I will find some children's books or Mexican menus. Thank you

FYI, if you are interested in the gramatical explanation of a level, you could log into the web version of Duolingo (your same account will work) and they are all there for many languages, as well as several other features (depending on the language) such as a full dictionary of words you've studied, and each has its own "health bar". There are also flash cards although now Duolingo has a separate app for that called TinyCards.

I'm not affiliated with them in any way but with the number of people I've convinced to use it, I should be getting commission.

Live in NYC and can confirm these exist. A buddy of mine actually has acquired several, and doesn't always use them on traffic stops, waiting for a "better occasion".

I think the developer was "lazy" too which is why he didn't spend days and weeks rewriting the wheel instead of using react.

As far as floppies, I think that's why we don't use them anymore.

These days, that might also be a crime.

If your Product Designer can't draw rectangles then I don't think these stamps are gonna help them.

GitHub?

When I read this, I first thought you meant a fence for keeping drones in (or out). Maybe it zaps them when they get too close. Another idea for OP.
