Without Prime the free shipping averages something like 2-3 week delivery times. It’s not like years ago before they made Prime. I tried ditching Prime; it’s painful. I still try to prioritize Target, Best Buy, etc. because I like having the option of the physical stores and easier returns.
Seems to hinge on the definition/degree of imprisonment. From what I have read they aren't really in the same ballpark. What's going on in Gaza does seem unethical.
Haven’t read the article yet but I will be surprised if it claims that. I would imagine it’s more about using your primary means (password) of authn which has worse consequences than using a secondary, revocable means (token) upon compromise.
No status code system is ever perfect or you wouldn’t get the benefit of the status codes. I feel like this problem is solved higher up by doing exactly what you say via OAuth, etc.
If you have a spouse and/or kids, and you want them to use FastMail for the same reason you do, consider putting pressure on FastMail to offer a (reasonable) family plan. I’ve been a happy customer for a decade but they’ve raised their prices (which would affect new accounts) and do not offer a family plan so this year be my last year with them.
One aspect is having to maintain double dictionaries. Back in the early Mac OS X days the system-wide dictionary was one of the little features that made me happy.
Those surgical masks may not be doing much either due to improper use. As they get wet due to moisture in the breath they become less permeable causing more of the air to be vented out the sides rather than through the membrane. Perhaps this could still decrease the radius of infection even in this suboptimal state.
I second this. It's an awful experience. Especially they're "all you can eat" kids buffet, FreeTime Unlimited. Constantly having to manage disk space. Searching and getting no/missing results for terms as basic as "dinosaurs". I bought three, for the price of one iPad, and after a few months just bought iPads because it was so ridiculous for the kids and for me to have to manage.
In my experience (most) exceptions also cause people to forget about their own failure state, i.e. "always on the “happy path”", so they leave a mess behind when something they call throws an exception. Often they don't haven't handled failure state even when their own code throws an exception.
Not only that but increased regulation often favors incumbents because it increases the cost of competing which has a higher burden on a lean, new entrant.
They measured long enough in this specific example that they avoided the problem but something I see people repeated forget is to establish a baseline before making a change. If you don't know how variable something is before you make your change you might naively think you made something better or worse when it's within normal variability.
Some of the upgrades to High Sierra in my company failed and left the laptop unbootable. Unfortunately, I wasn't involved in the repair so I only have been told it was due to the APFS conversion and that the solution was to wipe and install.
Seems like you should have froze publishing instead of saying, "Please do not attempt to republish packages, as this will hinder our progress in restoring them." Especially, to prevent, even temporary, hijacking.
I took mine iPhone 6 in last night, was told about the $29 program, and asked if I wanted to wait. I said to go ahead and when I picked it up today I was only charged the $29.
