Comment Ah yes "time" (Score 1) 34

By that token every dogshit subscription service with autorenew enable can use that tagline that people are "saving". After all think of the precious seconds they're saving not requiring people to renew to something they may have forgotten they were subscribed to. And let's save people even more time by not inconveniencing them with an email about a pending renewal.

I use script blocker and it is amazing what commercial sites allow to run on their sites. 10-20-30 or more 3rd party libraries doing god knows what.
Even if they were checked out in the beginning they can get changed at any time and no one would be the wiser.
If your site requires anything beyond what is @ (your-domain.xyz) my first question to myself is "Do I really need to figure this out" and most often the answer is No. And I am gone.

I would say most people who are buying a $699 laptop do not know what a DAC is nor care about buying one. What they will see is this budget laptop requires an adapter to use wired headphones. Will it completely stop someone from buying this laptop over another model? Probably not, but it is a negative.

Dell says the processor will be an Intel Core Series 3 for the budget $699 model and has up to 17 hours of streaming battery life. We will have to see if it lives up to battery life and performance tests. Noticeably absent from the advertisement was how well this laptop would do in benchmarks.

I saw the movie. It was fine. It was not the best, but it was not the worst. From my perspective the movie did not have a main singular plot but multiple ones; it seems to been designed to break broken into pieces for serialized content like TV episodes. My guess is that this was intentional so that Disney+ could have another season of The Mandalorian and a movie. Basically the movie is really to generate some box office revenue that it could not generate as a TV season.

Comment Programming oral?Yes, and it is a thought process. (Score 2) 85

And if you need to relay any information you make a note(for yourself) or talk it over(development group).
But if you are a programmer, the truth is, a programs code is the documentation. And you read/compile/run/tweak the code and that tells you what you need to know.
I have walked into projects blind where the client had the executables. Along with what they thought was the developers source but no one could get anything to compile.
It was like archeology and walking into a failing project as an outside contractor often is.
