What could be the best possible way for Malaysia to commemorate the tragic event of MH17 on its 10th anniversary? Joining the terrorists who shot it down, right?

I mean, if the words “Israel” and “interrogation” are in it, it pretty clearly conveys what you just described.
The amount of people not knowing what a “web app” is, is seriously concerning.
Anyway, I tried “old” and Alexandrite, but I just ended up sticking with the default. I find “old” ugly, and on Alexandrite, I couldn’t find my saved posts. Maybe it has been fixed since, but the default one works for me best.
I’ve switched to Gboard on Android back in the days, when it was the only one with proper multilingual features, and been using it ever since.
I’ve experienced the opposite: I actually found it rather more helpful than not, despite the occasional errors like you mentioned. But nowadays it’s quite rare that it “mispredicts” a word. And what I’ve found extremely helpful is, that nowadays it doesn’t only correct individual words, but it picks up other grammatical errors as well in the sentence. So it’s working for me.
Luckily I’m not involved in this smart-TV saga in any way, as I haven’t been watching TV since my childhood (there were no smart-TVs back then, but TV shows in my country were shit).
Now my biggest fear is, if enough people realize that smart-TVs are shit, then desktop monitors will start to become “smart” too. My life will be doomed if that happens.
I don’t understand the motivation in these kinds of attacks.
It’s easy: Houthi terrorists are backed by Iranian terrorists and Muscovy terrorists, and all they want is more chaos in the world. That’s what terrorists do.
1000 Terabytes (TB) = 1 Petabyte (PB).
Or: 1024 Tebibytes (TiB) = 1 Pebibyte (PiB)
Or: 1024 Terabytes (TB) = 1.024 Petabytes (PB)
Or: 1024 Terabytes (TB) = 1 Petabyte (TB), 24 Terabytes (TB)
But: 1024 Terabytes (TB) != 1 Petabyte (PB)
Hmm that’s unfortunate. Wherever I worked so far, ThinkPads didn’t break, even after the warranty expired.
Well, I wish you better luck with your Framework laptop(s) then.
Check again.
At least the T580 I worked on was the best quality laptop I’ve laid my hands on. My current M1 MacBook Pro is close, to some extent. It’s a great machine too, and obviously better in performance as it’s newer, but in laptop keyboards, ThinkPad’s is still no.1, not to talk about the track point that, to this day, no other manufacturer could properly reproduce. I worked with a Dell Latitude (a couple of years ago they were great), but the track point is shit on it.
Regarding maintenance, Lenovo provides detailed disassembly and repair guides, plus you can get replacement parts anytime.
Of course there are shit decisions on the ThinkPad line as well, but I still only can recommend them.
Exactly.
Also, besides the fact that over this time PHP transformed into a whole different language, most of the concepts the author is dissatisfied with, are just nuances.
There are a few valid points as well.
Overall, if I were to use a scripting language for web development, I would 100% pick PHP, as that’s the best suited language for the job. Nowadays, however, I go with Rust because I wanna squeeze out as much performance as I reasonably can.
For single use scripts and smaller tools on my desktop, I used Python in the past, and then I learned Ruby. I’m sticking with Ruby for these use cases.
Well, I guess it depends on the use case. For me, mine was a damn good investment for sure.
I know. Still, that’s the best hardware out there for laptops. I have to add though, only the T and P series are worth buying, the rest are trash.
Buying HP products is bad investment.
I only had the chance to two of their inkjet printers and one of their office laser printers, plus an elitebook laptop. In short, all of them suck.
Much better (to me, the best) alternatives, that I can safely say are good investments: Canon for inkjet printers, ThinkPad T and P series for laptops. Those are quality products. Unfortunately I don’t have any experience with other office laser printers, so I cannot recommend one.
Edit: specified which series of ThankPads are still good.
Just as a mildly interesting story, I thought I’d share:
The best self checkout experience I had so far, was at a Japanese clothing store in Germany. There was a box at the checkout station, and each clothing item had an RFID in their labels. You just toss all your items in the box, it detects which exact products you’re gonna buy, and if the list of items shown is correct, you just pay and go.
A few years ago I heard of a similar concept for groceries, but that one was experimental and I don’t think they’ve implemented it ever since. But this one at the clothing store was not a test, and it worked flawlessly.
I feel sorry for the author of the article for working at such a company.
This person happens to be working at a company, where they’re not even taking Scrum seriously. What they’re doing, is in fact, not Scrum.
When it’s done correctly, it does make the team very productive and even enthusiastic, but - since it’s a teamwork - a great team is needed for that.
It’s true that it isn’t easy to do Scrum right. It is in the Scrum guide too: easy to understand, but hard to master.
I did have a chance to work in an amazing team at a great company, where the leadership, as well as our Scrum master were determined to stick to the Scrum guide as much as possible (way too many “Scrum” teams make an alternate “Scrum” for themselves, with which they’re essentially ruining it).
In our case, we didn’t start out perfect either! We failed most of our sprints, but the management still believed in Scrum, and sent the whole team to a Scrum elevation training each year. Even as an introverted person, I have to say, they were really fun and they were good as team building events too, besides the training itself. We always returned to the office with greater enthusiasm after each training, and our enthusiasm always lasted longer and longer. At the end our team was like a “rock star” team at the company, the management, the leadership, our scrum master, all of them were proud of our achievements. We never failed a sprint again, and we also put the necessary overtime in when it was needed.
Those were the good times. Unfortunately I haven’t managed to work in such a Scrum team again, and everywhere where I had an interview, they always had their own version of “Scrum”.
Most likely the author of the article won’t read this, but my message is, if you think, Scrum sucks, then in reality, your team (and maybe your company too) sucks.
Oh. Someone at the EU Commission started to use websites? 🤔
I guess, any website served by Google Cloud wouldn’t work either.
Wait, the keyboard layout standardization has been done by Microsoft?!
Well, I tested both modules, and one of them turned out to be faulty. The other stick works, I can use my PC with it for now. And Corsair’s customer support turns out to be really handy; they can send a replacement first for a deposit, and after I receive it, I can send the faulty one back. And once they receive it, I can get the deposit back.
So it’s all (kinda) good now, regarding my PC.
Sooo they turn into racist slowly? That’s still not cool.
