I had always thought this is where the term “bug” came from, but the log says “First actual case of bug being found”, which to me implies misperforming routines were called bugs prior to the “bug” being found.

I haven’t transferred data over a usb cable in at least a decade. This means nothing to me.

Yes. Please help us learn how to get more sports in our feed!

Just to second this take: My experience is that initial app review gets failed for random reasons that you have to be ready to argue about. Then in updates to the app, the developer can do pretty much whatever you want without any consequences.

I use Magic Trackpad for work, and mouse for gaming. The Magic Trackpad is the superior input device for productivity work.

Interesting? How so?

I would love to have multiple Mac monitors, and hopefully this limitation is overcome at some point. But I think the short term solution might be using native apps for safari, slack, teams, and whatever else has a native app available, and using the singular Mac window for the IDE.

If they did not setup Legacy contacts (people who can access their account after their death), you will need to either gain access by resetting passwords, or via court order.

The attorney handling the probate might help you, or you can try the legal aids that work with that courthouse.

And as an aside, don’t forget to setup your own legacy contacts now and possibly get your parents to do it now. Having gone through this a couple times recently, it was very nice to have the legacy contact access. Made everything simple.

Some Minivans share the same chassis as sedans. I’m not starting to call sedans “Minivans” just because the chassis is shared.

Senior developer here. It is hard to overstate just how useful AI has been for me.

It’s like having a junior programmer on standby that I can send small tasks to–and just like the junior developer I have to review it and send it back with a clarification or comment about something that needs to be corrected. The difference is instead of making a ticket for a junior dev and waiting 3 days for it to come back, just to need corrections and wait another 3 days–I get it back in seconds.

Like most things, it’s not as bad as some people say, and it’s not the miracle others say.

This current generation was such a leap forward from previous AI’s in terms of usefulness, that I think a lot of people were looking to the future with that current rate of gains–which can be scary. But it turns out that’s not what happened. We got a big leap and now are back at a plateau again. Which honestly is a good thing, I think. This gives the world time to slowly adjust.

As far as similarities with crypto. Like crypto there are some ventures out there just slapping the word AI on something and calling it novel. This didn’t work for crypto and likely won’t work for AI. But unlike crypto there is actually real value being derived from AI right now, not some wild claims of a blockchain is the right DB for everything–which it was obviously not, and most people could see that, but hey investors are spending money so lets get some of it kind of mentality.

I’m the total opposite. I pay up to double the fare sometimes to fly Delta.

Hopefully this bad press on this incident causes some policy changes at Delta on tarmac delays. That sounds miserable and dangerous.

That txt from ATT about the paperless discount was so poorly worded. Took me forever to realize I can still get the $10 discount if I switch the autopay to a debit card. It’s only the credit card autopay/paperless that is getting reduced to $5.

I think it is way more likely they just bought imagery from existing sources. There are tons of high res imagery out there that you can purchase. Price is usually determined by how old it is. This seems way more likely than an insurance company hiring a drone operator and going door to door. Secondly, companies never share the details of things like this. Wherever the source, they are unlikely to share it. Companies don’t give details because they don’t want to fight you. They just want to cancel your account and move on.

That isn’t to say this is right.

Do we want insurance companies peering into our backyards from imagery? I don’t. Regardless of if it’s a drone or not.

I assume this is fake, but still very funny.

It is, which is why I avoid it. The amount of power VSCode consumes vs others is significant. Jetbrains products even have a low power mode which turns off indexing. Can run that thing all day long without plugging in.

I also use Ripcord for slack instead of that electron client.

I always avoid electron apps so I don’t have to have a separate flow when I am on battery vs plugged in.
