The average return has dropped 8% this year... maybe you got a cut but perhaps you are also taking advantage of things that are not available to most people. I haven't done mine yet but a lot of people that I know personally that have ended up with a worse return than last year despite similar earnings and deductions.
Alerts that the temp has fallen more than X degrees below the current settings allowing you to know if your heater has crapped out on you. I came home from a vacation last winter and it was 30 degrees F in my house. My cat had nearly frozen to death. If I had known when it dropped 5 degrees below what was expected I could have called my neighbor to have him check on it, maybe even let a technician into the house to fix it if necessary well before it got to the point where my pipes had frozen (making it very difficult to refill the boiler and get my heat running again).
Its also useful for some companies because the enterprise apps can do things that regular ones cannot, including things that are privacy violating but might be an acceptable option for employees who are using a corporate phone for corporate work or who want to use their personal phone for work purposes but that means they need to be audited like any other device.
App Store apps aren't allowed to use some. of the APIs that are available in the system, enterprise apps bypass this allowing them to do things like have access to email or messaging without your approval. This is distinct from the use of enterprise certs to distribute test builds of apps ultimately destined for the App Store.
The enterprise cert is distinct from the App Store cert... I'm not sure if apple nuked the enterprise cert but it sure seems like facebook is still in the App Store.
Enterprise distribution requires a license and while apple does allow you certain ability to use undocumented APIs to do things that would not be allowed in the App Store there are still limits. Additionally enterprise distribution is for exactly that, enterprise, not distributing apps to the general public so that you can undermine the protections people assume are in place thanks to the App Store and get at their data.
If a company wants to do this with their employees devices thats one thing, distributing to the world at large is another thing. Enterprise distribution is there for a reason.
Or it has something to do with the fact that a shit load of people have seen Black Panther since the site existed but most people haven't been re-watching citizen cane and thinking "yah know what, I should review that on rotten tomatoes"
I tend to agree, the idea that the startup industry here is anything but thriving is pretty dumb. It is worth noting, however, that not long ago Mass did away with non competes (or rather require them to be compensated).
Ya know they had the lime scooters in Paris when I was there recently and I didn't see them piled up all over the place. What I did see was a lot of people using them for short distance trips, hell I rarely saw one that didn't have a person on it. It's a shame that we in the US seem to have this problem with them because they seemed to be pretty effective in Europe and as someone who commutes via public transit into a major metro, I would love to have these available for getting around the city more quickly.
Honestly I suspect part of the issue is that in America we are too busy sitting in our cars to keep these things in use as opposed to just sitting on a sidewalk somewhere.
That said this takedown letter from Bird is absolute crap
Because you seem confused on the matter, he is not "on trial" he is in a very involved job interview. The rules of evidence do not apply in the same ways at all and he was never at any risk of going to jail. The worst thing that could happen to him in these proceedings is that he doesn't get a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land.
Look, building super high quality code is hard, but not everything has to be avionics grade code to be a lot better than it is now, and there are good tradeoffs. Building an app? If your foundation is solid and if you have build a framework that makes it easy to build the type of app you are working on (sometimes including well build third party libraries, chosen carefully) then it will be easier and cheeper for you to roll out new features with minimum effort because you paid the cost up front instead of having features get harder and harder to develop as you kludge more stuff in.
From my point of view, at least at the app level, that is a lack of management vision more than it is a failure of consumers. Planning for the future isn't the way of things anymore.
So in a discussion of an article that says that software engineering tallent is more valuable than money, your argument is that these people are too expensive?
Seems to me that this wouldn't be possible if it weren't sufficiently pervasive, keeping wages down for older engineers, otherwise those IBM engineers would just go elsewhere rather than take shittier pay from IBM.

Yes they seem to have an excellent understanding of their advertising ecosystem

I don't know man... Pokemon is basically dog fighting with more exotic animals.... and that might not even be the creepiest thing about that show

To be fair, Travelers Checks are insured and can be canceled and re-issued if stolen.
Also conversion fees are not taxes.
Yeah, I can't believe they let apps receive tap events and they even let them call services on the internet! The gall of these people.
There is a huge difference between what the google and facebook enterprise apps were tracking and tracking user actions within your own app.

you just use a socket adaptor, you don't mind a big bump on the side of your skull right?
Yeah that's why Europe and the US have entirely different companies

I believe this is the case in Massachusetts now after the most recent law was passed on Non-Competes.
I live in Boston.... Sure maybe LA is too big but Boston is certainly not larger than Paris.

Yeah, let's start with the absolutely astronomical military budget.

Redneck isn't a race, its not even close... is deplorable a race?
yeah like that seamless transition off of google wave...
Tariff: A tax or duty to be paid on a particular class of imports or exports.
putting a tariff on the good a company imports to do business is very much taxing their supply chain.
