And even the Weight Watchers (WW now) app are way better than the website. I'd love to be able to use those where I have a real keyboard.

And you don't see this as a fundamental problem? The website should be *the* place to do all things. Not an app. Websites are perfect for interoperable communication regardless of device.

I've noticed that only when the authors of software take a stand on a social issue that the dominant group disagrees with they are called "political".

Funny, that.

Glad this is finally getting addressed at the National level. I remember hearing about this story five years when Jimmy Johns was preventing former sandwich makers from taking jobs at Subway.

No hourly and/or temp employee should be bound by a Non-Compete clause. They serve a purpose when an employee is actually creating IP, but those employees must be compensated adequately for their contributions.

Honestly, and based on the merits of the product.

I know, I know. An alien concept.

My main use of APKPure is to be able to use an Android phone without a Google Account, but still be able to install applications that would have been free in the Google store.

This doesn't get pointed out often enough.

The end result is that it raised the price of foreign goods beyond the point at which people buy it without second thought.

The intent of tariffs is to promote the purchase of domestic product by making foreign product more expensive. This is sometimes necessary to prevent a foreign government dumping product so cheap that the domestic companies shut down, then the foreign governments stop subsidizing the product because there's no longer competition.

Tariffs are a defensive tactic to protect domestic industry, and in that regard that's what they're being used for here. You just have to do some serious mental gymnastics to justify this defense because it's pretty shitty. Our domestic companies should pay their fair share of taxes in the nations they operate, as well as here in the US.

This could get interesting. Maybe I'll start cross posting my blog here - see if we can get something going. Though I can't lie - I'm doubting it will catch on. :)

Introduce him to Oracle licensing?

Exactly. My wifes mid-2010 27" is out of support. We would need a new machine. We're going to hobble along with what we have because obviously buying an Intel Mac now is a waste of money. However buying anything first-gen Apple is no good idea either. So we'll wait for second gen and wait a bit longer until the verdict is out that it's good.

Ah fudge, I was looking at comment numbers. I'm an idiot who hasn't used /. in far too long. Carry on, apologies. More coffee is in my immediate future.

Your troll accounts have the UIDs a bit too close together. You should wait longer in between making troll accounts in the future so it's not so obvious.

I've had this issue with controllers for as long as I've owned my ps4

That is the most terrifying claustrophobic "office" design I've ever seen. I guess it works better than nothing if you live in a van down by the river, but nope. Another designer solving the wrong problem.

There isn't really any proof that Waymo vehicles are driverless, only that the driver isn't in the vehicle. If you compare a dozen dubiously driverless vehicles to a million collecting data every moment and already doing a pretty good job at autonomy, which do you think will succeed?
