If there is a tech backlash, I don't see how more tech is the solution.
I downloaded WeCroak, after reading an Atlantic article about it being an anti-app to remind you about your impending death, and it works as advertised. By which I mean, after reading a quote about death, I feel less inclined to pick up my phone for a couple hours!
Be warned of the time sink that is trying to get mods running on desktop Minecraft.
Each version update breaks compatibility and your kids have a hard time understanding why they can’t use that cool mod their friend told them about at school where they portal to the moon!
I was thinking that too, then I realized he was wrapping the code in `DB.transaction` blocks, which rollback on any type of exception, so that all those staged/checkpoint entries only persistent if the block cleanly executes.
Really, the iPhone 7 was just the 6SS. The 'S' revision was spec and camera bumps, but no major case changes and the 7 made no case differences over the 6S.
But probably a 6SS or whatever wouldn't have sold as well, so they shipped a 7, and now the 8 actually does change the case significantly (glass back) and so thats not a 'S' revision.
No product cycle will play out perfectly in a versioning scheme, and your only surprised about the missing 'S' because they have had a naming scheme that has been surprisingly consistent for this long!
There is definitely a changing Rust definition of good code hygiene in terms of how to write code in the most "Rustic" way, but in terms of code formatting, there is already rustfmt[0]
My first thought is are they adding enough value to take a 30% cut off a digital subscription service?
But then I flipped the question to whether as a consumer, I would be more likely to be a digital subscription with a "Subscribe with Amazon" button.
Hell yes!
I just logged into my Economist account to try and cancel my subscription and failed to find any way to do that. Emailed support, they said "we would be happy to help you, call us during business hours...".
I would love all my subscriptions to be managed by Amazon under a single interface.
I would also be more likely to "try out a subscription" knowing I could easily get out of it without dancing through hoops.
I have been using Exponent (Expo) on a side project for 5 months and love it.
Can I ask what editor this is built on? I've been considering for another project having a "live editor" for writing extensions, and this is the best ES6 + linter I've seen!
Very cool that their "Mobile Center" SDK has React Native support. [0]
This looks very feature competitive with the "AWS Mobile Hub", even going beyond it with its CI app build integration with GitHub and device simulators!
Also, although they announced Amazon Pinpoint in December, there is still no support for it in their "beta" React Native Mobile SDK [0] (Which has had no commits in 5 months)
I had two OnHub devices (different models) do this during business hours at two different places that ran on WiFi today.
The first I took as a complete fluke, but the second made me realize this was a Google issue.
They say it wasn't related to a software update, so what the hell resets a device into setup mode?
Power cycling did nothing, I had to re-configure the devices from scratch: switch to its setup network, use the Google WiFi (renamed from OnHub) app to set network name password, reset to bridge mode etc.
Were those not acquisitions that withered as opposed to Dropbox new product ventures?
To be honest, I read through that whole page and I really am not sure I understand what "Paper" is.
I'm guessing it's like slack + specialized components (lists/document snippets) and file sharing designed around collaborating on a product or more generally a project...
The killer feature I still keep Google Voice around for is transcription of voicemail sent to your inbox, even for direct calls to your cell (non GV #).
I stopped giving out my GV number, but you can set up your Verizon cell phone to use Google Voice as your voice mail service, and I love getting transcriptions to my email inbox of missed phone calls!
The app update is welcome, as you still have to use the app to listen to the voice message on the rare occasion when the transcription didn't pick it up.
It's a bookend to the recurring point that building a business requires a good understanding of markets and how companies fight for their place in them.
The Economist covers a lot of macro-economic news and frames the world in terms of market forces.
I think Slava is saying the type of biz-savy "personal development" he experienced (belatedly) could have been accelerated by more of this perspective.
Between this and eslint+flycheck I will feel less envious of Visual Studio Code's editor environment (if only there were a way to leverage some of its fantastic IntelliSense from emacs...)
