Gates and his then-wife Melinda took a decisive step by limiting screen time to 45 minutes for games, with an additional hour allowed on weekends. This was in addition to the time required for homework.

Bit of a misleading title. Not really banned, limited use, which should the case with consumption of any of these technologies anyways.

But the market has actually rewarded companies pausing hiring and doing layoffs. In other words, if company is saving money by reducing fixed salary costs, market appreciates that move.

For those working in North America, today (April 5) will be their last day. In EMEA and APJ, it will be tomorrow (April 6).

Blog posted on Apr 5, and same day is the last day for many. Damn that's so fast, no time to even think and process.

oh no! I really loved your reporting. One time I was on the job market and I was talking to a company that had so little information about them on the internet, I saw you had profiled the company and its founder. Helped me immensely to know about the company's business model. Wish you all the best in your next adventure.

sent a text message to an Uber worker claiming to be a corporate information technology person

I'm confused. Was the hacker claiming to be an IT person or was it the Uber worker?

The Pentagon said in the press release that it still needs enterprise-scale cloud capability and announced a new multi-vendor contract known as the Joint Warfighter Cloud Capability. The agency said it plans to solicit proposals from both Amazon and Microsoft for the contract, adding that they are the only cloud service providers that can meet its needs.

Logs are written to the flash memory every time the car is in use, which soon reaches its lifetime number of write cycles; once this limit has been reached, the touchscreen dies

wonder if the write cycles are reset when the car is restarted?

this slide deck has 5,573,996 views. that seems like a lot for a posting that's only 2 months old.

I get the gist of what the author is trying to tell us here, don't fall on the hype train(trending on Netflix, YouTube, social media etc.) now, instead allow media contents coming out today to settle, undergo the test of time, and if it is truly good content, in a few years from now it may still be regarded as worthy. The author seems to be applying the same logic when choosing contents that are 10 or 20 years old, only those that have continued to sustain its popularity/fame is what's considered as worthy.

np, good points. I was curious myself as well

Why is this particularly Air India though? Is the Boeing 777 different for other airlines?

PDF says Seattle, CA, should be WA.

thanks for the link!

Curios to know what's considered a good offer in India for someone making ~200k in CAD?

what would be a good example of spiritual materialism? like meditation centers such as Maharishi in Iowa or Vipassanā?

by 'dhyana' you mean meditation?

which can widely cover areas that Wi-Fi can’t reach.

but my smartphone doesn't need WiFi for GPS, works on mobile data.

I'm interesting in knowing about SDET's job description. how can I learn more? thanks.

I think there are two reasons why you would see a spike in internationals in a graduate cohort and their number being less in an undergraduate class:

1) experience. most of the international students mentioned in the article from India, China, Turkey, Korea want to have that experience of going to a school in a different country, meeting students from around the globe, listen to lectures and work with people from different background and skills, I think this is something you would certainly lack if you choose to go to grad school in the same geography you got your undergraduate education. Think about this for an American student, who is not so motivated to go to grad school because environment wise it is not going to be a whole lot different than the professors you had for your undergrad class. I'm curious to see numbers for American undergrads who have gone to Europe or Japan to get their graduate degrees for the experience, this might actually be skewed because half the students here in America gets that experience through study abroad programs.

2) cost. the article says there is a very small number of undergraduate internationals compared to graduate student population, it comes down to cost. if you were coming from India, China or the other foreign countries mentioned in the article money wise it would be very expensive for you to pay for 4 years of undergraduate degree compared to 2 years of masters, PhD can be an outlier here, but it has its own benefits. so if you can get an undergraduate degree without causing a dent in your bank account and if you are almost certain that you will eventually go get a masters degree in another country, budget wise that's the most smart thing to do. by the time you are done with your undergrad you'd have a good school experience to go to another country, blend in, and go through school. The reason I mentioned about PhD being an outlier is, with a doctoral degree you might end up being a professor or a research scientist, but when it comes to a masters vs bachelors, chances are, for most of them, you both will likely end up in a similar job at Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and others. so why pay twice to get there. not to forget, you might end up with some sort of funding while doing a graduate degree compared to undergraduate.

second in command exits, starting from entry level employees all the way up to the top of the pyramid, people are exiting the firm, this doesn't look good.

good to know of a new kid in the block. when comparing prices, which is dramatically lower than the competitors, I wonder if .0039 cents per gigabyte is basically just the storage cost and not the cost of w/r/d data over a period of time? one thing that's common among aws, azure, and google cloud is they make their money by charging customers for egress of data. so with this low price Wasabi certainly seems like a good place for archival, but not necessarily primary storage which might do a lot of roundtrips throughout the day.

i must say the name, the website, the app's UI all look pretty neat. you seem more of a designer than a developer, may I ask you, what's your expertise?

the surface laptop isn't a chromebook competitor, it's more of a macbook air/pro competitor. the windows 10 S based laptops manufactured by asus, acer, dell, fujitsu, hp, samsung, toshiba are the real chromebook competitors. i think its basically windows 10 S Vs chrome OS.

if using Braintree would lead to problems like the ones mentioned by OP, what are the alternatives, in US and elsewhere, square cash?

I wonder how politwoops is allowed to function when postghost is deleted.

I'd be interested in knowing more about Argentina, and Spain. How does one go about getting a permanent visa? Should I be well versed with Spanish?
