Likewise! Been running the snap version on a $5 DO droplet for half a year now and there's been nothing making me want to go back.

Sure the UX can be improved a bit, but it's been rock solid so far and gets the job done.

I got another one for you!

It's 2019, and Office for Windows still uses Internet Explorer to render add-ins built with OfficeJS.

This is slated to be switched to Edge (regular edge, not the Chromium-based build) with Windows 1903 and a newer Office version, but damnit if my life isn't going to be hell debugging IE for a couple months.

This supports what I've always wanted in a markdown note taking app...

being able to directly copy and paste an image from the clipboard.

We don't live in that time period anymore. Our current Era is tough in its own ways, without people like you invalidating someone else's troubles. Done be a one-upper.

Any title that's posed as a question can simply be answered with "No".

"#10 Recruiting: Gets involved with the recruiting process, such as outreach, screening, and interviews. Gives referrals to potential hires. Takes an active interest in new hires and onboarding. Is part of screening calls, interviews and code tests."

I can get behind taking an interest in new hires and helping out with the screening/interview process, but outreach?

No, that's the job that recruiters are paid to do.

I'm annoyed how the author never actually explained what Corium was. Just described it as "the most toxic substance" and hoped readers would go along with the ride thinking it's some new material.

All it is is an amalgamation of melted fission materials and reactor components like control rods.

Sorry for asking the obvious question, but this website seems like a play on words for McAfee.com

"This study, as well as other research on the connection between diet beverages and vascular disease, is observational and cannot show cause and effect."

And there we have it. The entire article written around what is actually not a study at all.

In my opinion, it seems to be the case that people who consume diet soda do so because they are trying to be healthier, but don't want to do the real healthy thing of giving up soda altogether.

That lack of discipline would surface in other aspects of their life and contribute to a unhealthy lifestyle as a whole.

What upstanding parents.

HelpScout's login is anothrt good example! Definitely echoing other's thoughts that it's the correct way to handle it

And I'm sure that Apple or Samsung could rebrand and have that become the fastest growing smartphone.

The Pixel line is literally a new name for the same Nexus line, which was stagnant for years. Forbes is cancer.

Thanks for helping to ruin the world through advertising.

Then don't buy an iPhone?

I don't understand why people keep bringing up this point.

Yes, it's your phone but it's not your app store. One can use an iPhone without ever opening the app store.

I am.

I'd suggest getting a Pixel or other Android device if Apple's privacy stance bothers you. They will act on behalf of the consumer, regardless if you feel like "but it's my phone!".

Yes, it's your phone. But not your app store. You can use your iPhone perfectly well without ever having opened the app store.

“He said he went up to a police officer and they didn’t help him. So, then he called me."

This is my case with most police officers I've encountered in my area. One isn't going to be taken seriously unless you have information on a cop that's been killed, or blood gushing from a wound on your body.

Not sure how I feel about MS hijacking 7-10GB of a system as a “reserved space” to download Windows updates to.

I mean, if that’s what they need to do to get Windows Updates to function with any degree of reliability then their OS is truly fucked.

Almost every one of your paragraphs had some form of "don't ask me, look it up".

Doesn't make a very compelling argument.

+1 for Tooth fairy. I use it to quickly switch between multiple different Bluetooth headsets when at work

Got a personal Nextcloud instance going with DO and your documentation has been an amazing help.

Hats off to you and the rest of the team.

Looks like Google is finally discovering they are just a SCUMMY advertising company and shouldn't be building consumer products that don't directly feed into that advertising.

They are scapegoats.

The person who ordered the murder, commonly believed to be the Crown Prince, isn't going to face a thing.

In my anecdotal experience from growing up in California's Central Valley, not one person I knew who became a cop _wanted_ to become a cop.

It was always their last "honorable" job choice. As such, they aren't mentally prepared to handle dealing with the shittier parts of society which shortens their fuse tremendously. No tolerance situations like this are a symptom.

Starting to become a bit annoying how orgmode is immediately linked whenever a notes app is posted on HN.

Emacs is a beast of a program in the same way Vim is. One has to sit down, bear through the pain, and force themself to be slow as hell while they "learn" the program. This culminates in a experience that arguably is only slightly better than something that a person can get immediately through installing any other modern notes app.

A majority of people don't want to have to do that.

Powershell Core has allowed me to do 90% of the Office 365 administration I need to do from MacOS and has reduced my time in a Windows VM substantially.

Very happy that Microsoft is making this effort.

10%? I don't think any scooter (via a share company) will have the torque needed to get up at a reasonable speed.

It appears the Xiomi M365 had a rated motor of 250W with a max of 500W.

I cycle with a power meter, and going up a 10% grade requires 300 or so watts. Bear in mind the bike has gears that allow going up hills with lower torque. The scooters have a single ratio.

Two years? That's it?

The iPhone 6 has been getting both feature and security updates for about 4 years, with the EOL not being for another year or two.

Google needs to do better.

Just another run off the mill "I'm not getting another mac" complaint article.

1) Introduce myself by explaining how emotionally attached I was to the first Macs I bought

2) Complain about price

3) Complain about price some more

4) Did I mention price?

5) Windows has caught up to MacOS (which assumes Mac was ever ahead of Windows to begin with)

6) I'm an "x", and I do "y". I can do "y" just as well on Windows

7) Since I can "y" on Windows, let me bring up again how Macs are expensive and how I shouldn't have to drop that kinda of money for one

Somewhere Putin is laughing historically. This is all so easy for him

"As part of that effort, Google says it’s “pausing” work on its most recent entry into the messaging space, Allo."

Oh hey look, another app Google is going to neglect and then abandon. What a surprise.
