Bollocks it is!
MS got told they had to stop pushing their browser and promote others. No-one's going to stop Google promoting Chrome on every search page they render in a non-chrome browser.
MS were distributing a paid product, Google give theirs away.
MS didn't own the means of searching for a different browser. Do you trust Google to honestly search for "Chrome replacement"?
MS didn't own loads of the internet and cripple it when running on other browsers. Google fucked with Youtube until MS stopped developing their own rendering engine.
When MS were trying to own the browser they weren't also running the internet.
I fail to see how the current situation is preferable. Care to elaborate?
... that the world is moving away from legacy databases and towards Postgres."
So, extending your db to support SqlServer syntax is a sign that everyone is using Postgres.
I know sales droids don't have to make sense, but surely a basic grasp of logic would be helpful?
You put tests around the lines that do something that you want to happen. You take out the lines that don't need tests around them.
Why wouldn't you have 100% code coverage? How many lines have you put in that don't need testing but have to be there? And what are they doing that's important enough to warrant inclusion but not important enough to verify with a test?
No, not in the slightest. It's about keeping the wealth with the wealthy. You can argue about it as much as you like but the facts speak for themselves. Who made loads of cash out of the misery that was the pandemic? And who put the effort in to keep us going and got offered a 1% pay rise?
Spend some time on planet earth.
A couple of years ago there weren't the millions of homeworkers the pandemics created. "You can use your own phone and laptop" is not the same as "You can plug in any internet enabled tat". 10% of people bringing computing devices onto your network is not the same as 50% of people connecting their home lan to your corporate lan.
Well done, you understood that BYOD was stupid. Not so clever if you can't see that this poses much bigger risks.
So, this isn't to do with "identification", it's to do with maintaining personal relationships.
So, I was right to call this as bullshit, humans are not restricted to identifying 150 people, they can only maintain effective personal relationships with 150 people.
Thanks for clarifying!
Fuck me, the bullshit is strong on this site today!
What a load of bollocks. I stopped using Amazon a number of years ago. Get tat off Ebay, get non-tat from specific online dealers.
You are the reason Bezos doesn't have to give a shit about his warehouse workers, only concerned about your own inconvenience, never mind the working conditions you knowingly encourage.
This attitude is why we're fucked.
So you didn't get to the first section of the article, the bit under: What are the new security features?
Despite not reading the article you're still livid?
Oh, an article about a new release of Windows? I can't wait for the balanced and thoughtful comments of the regtards....
Your post is still up.
Neutral on what, whether racism is good? I'm happy for them to come right out and say it's bad!
You seem to have a problem with the content of the article, surely you're not suggesting they censor themselves.....
It did, well sterescopic like the display in this piece. The new 3ds even did it properly, by tracking your eyes and adjusting itself to keep you in the sweet spot.
Great feature, worked well on most games that used it, but it's just not enough of a wow to make people buy. By the end of it's life, the last pokemon game for example, they'd stopped bothering with the 3d render.
You need true depth of field for 3d display to be a system seller.
From the comments in here it's clear that being "fully aware of the Agile manifesto" and understanding how to build software using the Agile manifesto are two completely different things.
Yes, every waterfall project now has a veneer of Agile. That doesn't make Agile bad, it means management are stupid. We don't have to join them.
citation needed. Posting AC doesn't mean you just get to make shit up. I've got many, many chargers that are just a block with a wire coming out with a device specific connector on the end.
Are you sure "most" chargers are pluggable? As a business, why would I spend money building a socket into my device charger if I don't need to?
I did, It's an ok phone, charges in about an hour, lasts about 3 days (I seldom use the internet on it, it's a comms device), completely free of Google. If you can be arsed to get it setup and know the apks you need are available outside the play store I'd say go fo it!
But if the next one requires the output from the first one (we're writing code like it's synchhronous) then it can't start.
I think you're right, but the other tasks that are getting processor aren't in this thread, it's letting other threads get a bit of the pie. So it helps you scale and parallelise but doesn't magically run two of those awaited statements at once. They have to complete before the next one can start.
How clueless do you have to be to think that the goverment of the country you live in gives two shits about you if you're not super rich?
Inventing external enemies is a great way of turning focus away from terrible domestic policy. Notice that we're not discussing taxing the poor so the rich can keep their inheritances.
