News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Why is this being downvoted? I’ve seen similar behavior, and it’s not outside the realm of possibility that MS would choose meager context windows and API limits in favor of profit.
Yeah, but this completely ignores the relative access to resources as others at the same time. That’s kind of the point at specifying a date for these discussions. If a cure for cancer existed during the time Musa was alive, you can rest assured he would have had access to that information and those services.

Not that anyone asked, but after using and enjoying Inconsolata for the last decade I’ve come to really love Söhne Mono in the last few months.

Brilliant idea! I recently had a difficult time trying to get a cashiers check at a few nearby banks/credit unions I wasn’t a member of. It’s incomprehensible to me they weren’t willing to accept a fee in order to charge my debit card for the amount of the check + fee ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
From the press release: "The complaint separately alleges that RealPage has unlawfully maintained its monopoly over commercial revenue management software for multi-family dwellings in the United States, in which RealPage commands approximately 80% market share."

I've been using this (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/awake#co...) on my work computer for a few months and it works similarly to caffeinate.
I don’t have personal experience with Deft, but the folks at Basecamp/37signals/HEY wrote an article about their move off the cloud, using Deft as their colo provider: https://world.hey.com/dhh/we-have-left-the-cloud-251760fb

I have the same suspicion. There doesn't seem to be anything meaningful added.

Are there any fundamental differences between this and the fork (https://github.com/timdavies/hnprofile)?

Strange to be getting a "Page Not Found" error on this link: https://www.apple.com/us/shop/go/macbook_pro/select

Usually they put up the splash page prior to new Macs being available.

I’d say quite a lot when you consider local municipalities, churches (at least in the south), and small businesses. Historically, high positions in those places have been held by predominantly men. This isn’t news and it’s irrefutable.

Why does it feel like people are combatant to historical facts?

It probably comes from the fact that “Men’s rights activists” are somewhat extreme considering men have dominated every aspect of society (e.g. politics, religion, sports, etc.).

The idea of “Men’s rights” seems redundant to most people in my estimation.

The iPod touch and iPad were not released when iOS was called iPhone OS.
