I do this for any inbound call, unless the caller id is someone in my contacts it can go to voicemail. If it's important they either leave a voicemail or keep trying, for repeated calls I will answer but with skepticism.

If they are in my contacts I will recognise their voice.

VS Code Pets 2 years ago

We used to send an email from their account saying lunch/donuts are on me!

Not found any good proxy which works well with cisco VPN software. Charles and proxyman work intermittently at best and require disconnecting from the VPN and various such dances.

Fiddler on windows works flawlessly.

That really doesn't require that much complexity.

I used to send something like 250k a minute complete with delivery report processing from a single machine running a bunch of other services like 10 years ago.

That's not really true though is it. I use it countless times a week to navigate from my current location to point x l, generally a postal code or POI.

At no point during this do I have to interact with alternative businesses or way points.

Web IDE Beta 4 years ago

If someone came out with a free, cross-platform, attractive text editor that was a native executable and got critical mass going with a plugin ecosystem, then VS Code would fall out of fashion within a year.

Well yeah, there's the problem. This isn't an easy task, it has never been done before.

Just like anything you can shop around and get a good deal.

In the UK I use glasses direct, you can pick up a pair with a prescription for £50. They regularly have discount codes so most of the time that would be £35/40. Sure they aren't designer but they look ok for the price if you don't want to spend a lot, if you use them just got driving you can probably get an even cheaper pair that don't look as good.

There is no good reason they can't provide updates without scooping up all your data.

As a minimum they could keep vin/installed software version number and date times. It would be an acceptable compromise.

They most likely didn't though as it would be a flat out lie. He probably explained the procedure etc but never commited to doing it himself specifically.

Or maybe something more important came up just prior. Ultimately people have the learn and have a go at some point - with your attitude they would be no more doctors.

People should learn to engage their brain, maybe mull it over for a while before posting on twitter. It doesn't seem to happen though so they may as well charge people for the ability to undo their mistakes!
