They are a huge tech company. They should have a checkbox in the checkout flow that lets you add a free cable if you need one.

Hope they don’t share this technology with Israel.

Neo Nazis need gold coins too!

YouTube is terrible without an ad blocker. The current business model is: bait users with free entertaining content, insert reasonable level of ads, stockholders get mad there isn’t exponential growth, really annoy users until they subscribe. I get that companies need to make money, but this cycle seems to be faster than ever now.

They will certainly succeed at driving some people away. I was a lifetime Windows user and I currently don’t have it installed on any of my machines now. I think the average Joe is blissfully unaware other than the occasional dialog about a new feature coming their way.

I think they are going to lose more of the hardcore tech community with decisions like these, but I don’t know that they care.

When I hear about ram being soldered, I think of cheap computers with the memory permanently attached to the motherboard for planned obsolescence and/or cost.

The current mac silicon has memory integrated into the one chip that houses the cpu, gpu, cache, and memory. This approach has pros and cons, one of the biggest cons being upgradability.

It would be great if something like 64gb was stock for the prices they charge, but the fact I can run my laptop for days without it getting hot gives them a pass in my book.

Brand reputation?

So many apps use sqlite or json files for storage without encryption; this doesn’t seem like much of a discovery.

In any case, don’t share PII or any of your deepest, darkest secrets with it.

I get on my VPN to provide less data to Google. Routing my traffic through an advertising company always felt like a bad idea to me.

I think “breaks” is appropriate if you own a Chrysler.

It’s not very sexy, but I just use SFTP and filezilla. Filezilla is available for all the major operating systems, and an ssh server is basically required anyways.

The red squiggle instantly caught my eye, followed by the terrible indentation. Then I noticed the class is called Main without a public static void main method, odd. Wait and Love is a string now?

Then I realized I too was saddened like Biden at this code snippet, so I guess in the end it redeemed itself

I enjoy Ubuntu server. At the end of the day I just want something simple. I run most of my services in docker compose, and zfs for the filesystem.

Oh, eclipse. I’m still happy I don’t have to save in intellij .

This idea is bad and whoever came up with it should feel bad.

SQL has been around and evolving since the 70s. It is an ISO/IEC standard and is portable across a multitude of databases.

SQL is a great tool to have in your toolbox. From creating adhoc reports to building any kind of backend, it always seems to come in handy.

There are obviously non relational databases available and other approaches to persisting information, but there are some desirable characteristics of traditional relational databases.

Oftentimes I find if I’m struggling it is because of a missing abstraction. Views, functions, etc. are available to extract higher level ideas and remove duplication.

So, uhh… what did the print(money) part look like? Asking for a friend.
