Third paragraph: "I think I see a path to Twitter exceeding a billion monthly users in 12 to 18 months," Musk said on Twitter in...
Which you would know IF YOU READ THE ARTICLE?
A certain amount of artistic license is allowed in headlines and sub-headlines. The facts were fully presented in the article.
But you don;t want to read the article you just want to be a childish twat. Fuck off back to the Daily Wail or Fox.
> But I bet your diabetes app has been built with a copy of the SDK that - pointlessly - demands a newer version of the OS
Pointlessly, like being allowed to actually publish the app? You must build with a current SDK (or within the last 1 - 2 years depending on Android / iOS) or you can't publish your app.
Pointless, yeah sure.
That is not the fault of the diabetes app. That is the fault of Google or Apple, depending on which type of phone you own, and the way they designed that feature.
The manufacturer will be confused as to why you are questioning them about how Bluetooth works on your mobile device and point you back to Goople.
And yet she was only found guilty on 4/11 charges whiole the man involved was convicted on all 12 depite the fact that the company, technology and product were all her idea long before she mwt him. The entire scam was started and perpetuated by the pretty white blonde but the brown man is taking most of the rap.
> just one of many, many, delays to the launch, which was first scheduled for August 29th
Actually SLS & Orion was originally scheduled to launch in 2015!
And, the members of congress who started the project said "if we can't build it for $11.5B by 2015 then we should shut up shop." More than twice the cost and 7 years late is not a success.
Sending my data to Palantir is a deal breaker for me when it comes to using NHS England services.
But hey, that's what the Tories are after isn't it. If they can persuade people like me to avoid using the NHS that would cut waiting times and costs with the added benefit of probably reducing my lifetime and removing a non-Tory voter from the register sooner than otherwise.
You can obfuscate code in any language, compiled or interpreted does not matter.
Also this is about Android apps which are mostly written in Java or Kotlin, both of which are compiled to IL so again the compilation of Javascript has no bearing on the matter.
I have never voted for any member of the current UK government.
In fact I've never voted for any member of any UK government in the 30+ years I've been voting because the UK government is always decided by the voters in another country. If you don't live in England (or vote for the same party as the majority of English voters) you don't have a say.
I have to ask what the hell is the point? Presumably Tesla engineers work in C, maybe C++ and perhaps some Python or similar for AI.
Twitter engineers will work in Javascript.
It is absolutely sensible and useful for one of these groups to check the code of the other. Oh yes.
(For the sarcasm impaired, I doubt either group can understand the other's code.)
> Gaming may take off, he conceded, and "I'm led to believe there's a target audience for adult entertainment, perhaps"
Lol. Gaming has been doing the metaverse for at least 3 decades (anyone remember MUDs and MUSHes?) and cam sites now have VR support so I'd suggest the adult industry is also already doing the metaverse. Maybe its time to do some research before writing your report mister chief analyst.
While I applaud your efforts it will not change my opinion of The Register deciding to fail at English for the forseeable future.
You don't see American publications wondering if it makes them sound provincial when they assume we all understand their crappy sports that no-one else plays, politics, school system, etc.
As a student in the UK back in the 90s I had a data entry job in the evenings. Most of the other workers were women who worked as secretaries during the day and did data entry at night for some extra money. The speed some of them could type was astounding.
That's about 20 years before COVID and WfH.
> a sign that you just don't care about the success of the company paying your salary
Why should I give a shit about the sucess of any company? I won't see any extra money and they do not care about me.
Most CEOs should be kept far, far away from the rank & file employees because they make you want to actively harm the company. Many managers also fall into that category.
You could be a teacher and a lady / man of the night with no issue.
You could be a barrister and a YouTube influencer at the same time.
You could be a surgeon and a Twitch... whatever they call people on Twitch.
Ans so on.
Why would you assume the second job is the same as the first?
