I ctrl+f'ed to find Restfox to also give my recommendation. It's a great tool, thanks for maintaining it! :-)


This is very cool, the only thing I don't think is correct is Soul music branching off from R&B in the 80's. That's definitely not right, if then it's the other way around. Although the guide is electronic music, so who knows?


Yeah, I noticed this too when watching the keynote. It's interesting and must be deliberate, I wonder why they do this.

This is what I was thinking reading TFA. Doesn't it become an AI arms race, where insurance companies use AI to deny claims, and customers use AI to fight the denial ad infinitum?


Because most people would put a case on it, making it even thicker? I mean, I spent ~$1500 on my last phone, and while I treat it carefully, I'm not risking it getting smashed so I could never go without a cover.


I would totally use my phone without cover. $1500 or $300 I'm not going to resell it anyway, so scratches and wear aren't an issue. But I'm going to put it on a table a lot and I hate it when it wobbles.


I would say the same thing for Australia. There is no local car industry there, so no protectionism from the govt. on importing foreign cars, one would assume.


Very interesting! Dale is anachronistic in English by now I guess. I've only read it literarily as in "over hill and dale" and otherwise thought of Tal as valley in German.


It's certainly not anachronistic in England in place names, nor as a name for a type of (water- or glacier-carved) landform.


I recall around that time reading a story where if Steve Ballmer would catch you using an iPhone on the MSFT campus he would blow up. At the time, comments were "make a better phone" but I agree with your position. It's surprising though, eating your own dogfood is one of the golden rules of development. Such a pity Microsoft didn't stick with Windows Phone.


It's a human check after you use the self-scanning checkout, they verify that what's on your receipt is what's in your bag.


First time I went when I was in America, I ordered I think a medium with sugar. It was this gigantic 1 litre cup of very, very sweet "coffee". Had to throw it away, absolutely undrinkable. I'm very far from a coffee snob and that blew my mind.
