I’d be interested to know from someone knowledgeable whether Apple can recognize the revenue from a sale before the product has been delivered to the customer. It’s not clear to me that they can/do.

FWIW I see the corollary of this fairly often in commit messages, where the author "teaches" the code how to do something.

I just needed one peek at that crazy diagram to agree with your point.

Entrapment by what, reverse psychology? He didn’t walk into a sting set up by FBI agents; he went to a real conference in the real North Korea despite official warnings not to do so.

Not really too bizarre. Header files should include or declare everything they need; they should not introduce include-order dependencies. Listing your includes in lexicographic order is a good way to enforce header completeness.

He doesn’t know, hence the “probably”. It’s a good guess though, based on the known reliability of the wireless Magic Keyboard.

I believe it's controlled by a sort of dead man's switch, i.e. you must continuously hold down a button for the car to move.

Via an optical sensor that can perform photoplethysmography.

It's alleged that they made misleading claims, but it's not like the whole operation was a complete fabrication. There were plants and machines and whatnot, as can be seen in several articles on tis topic.

So it's plausible that they illegally dumped wastewater as part of whatever it is they're doing that isn't working as advertised.

According to Snopes [1], Belgium did eventually offer him residency — which he declined — after a ridiculous 7-year impasse where Belgium said he could only retrieve his lost refugee documents in person but France said he couldn’t leave the airport without said documents.

Wow. The walker kicks and whips the dog until it vomits blood and Wag offers a refund and a $100 credit as settlement.

Who in the world wants Wag credits after an experience like that. If Wag wants to buy these folks’ silence, shouldn’t they at least make a non-insulting offer?

Yes for ESPP but no for RSUs, which is what folks are talking about here. Selling RSUs when they vest incurs $0 capital gains.

But in both Apple's and Amazon's denials they claim to have already done extensive investigations.

There's a cost to damaging your credibility.

>It’s kind of like deleting a Facebook account then logging back in.

It’s not like that, though. You pay for MoviePass up front each month. Cancelling means you don’t want to pay for next month, but you are still able to use it for this month. Deleting the app would just be throwing money away.

They’re exploiting users who want to get fair value from their existing purchase.

But not necessarily as a sequential read.

What product do they have on the market?

So many features are broken in this orientation that I doubt anyone would be surprised by this.

Overall the file does appear to contain various autofill quirks, but the expanded dictionary in the screenshot is literally named “PasswordGenerationRequirements”. It’s definitely about password generation rules.

>If you backup your iPhone, apps and their data don't actually get backed up. Instead, your computer just stores a list of the apps installed and where the icons were, and app data only gets backed up if the developers have used special APIs or whatever to opt-in to having the app's data be part of the backup process.

Not at all true [1].

Everything in the app's container gets backed up with the exception of the app bundle, Library/Caches/, tmp/, and other things the developer explicitly opted out.

They have FDA approval. It’s stated in the first paragraph of the article.

How do you install a third-party browser in ChromeOS?

Pretty sure the parent was talking about USS Zumwalt specifically, not the Zumwalt class as a whole. It's not unreasonable to consider the first hull a demonstrator at this point. There'd be countless improvements made as the class design matured over the course of a 32 hull production run.

> Does Safari utilize XPC for rendering?

Web content and plug-in processes are XPC services, yes.

> Safari just sandboxes plugins

That hasn't been true for at least 5 years. Safari has used a sandboxed, multi-process architecture for Web content since version 5.1.

$0.125/mile seems pretty low. For comparison, the US Government reimburses employees $0.545/mile [1] for official travel in a personal vehicle. I wonder how many miles/day it would take for the cost of wear and tear to exceed the savings in parking fees.

A 64-bit virtual address space also makes for much more effective address space layout randomization.

That's demonstrating an HTTP client, not a server. I don't think there's a way to make /dev/tcp accept incoming connections.

I have to agree, at least in terms of these Trek sites. The latest versions of Safari, Firefox, and Chrome constantly use 50%+ of my CPU to render these pages, without me having to scroll or interact at all. For a site that doesn't use any plug-ins, it sure heats up my laptop like a plug-in would.

* Edit: I only meant to agree that these specific Trek sites feel very slow, not "all Google services."
