No need for the friends to be involved -- she resigned prior the the bankruptcy filing so she can participate in the bidding process personally

I don't believe this is true, but you do have to give one of the iMessage groups a name to make it independent from another group. If you imagine that primary key for a group is its name, and the default name for a group is its participants, this does kind of make sense.

I have a number of iMessage groups with the same participants, and different names and logos.

It can be fiber speeds! I had symmetric gigabit with MonkeyBrains for 3 years. It just depend on the size of their install; I was in a relatively large apartment complex so they invested more in bigger(?) antennas.

That doesn't sound exactly correct per the definitions I'm familiar with -- a multi-engine plane with a failure will not safely climb at V1, that's what V2 defines (the speed at which an engine-out aircraft can climb at 200ft/s, with at least 35ft of altitude at the end of the runway). Vr should be when the pilot begins rotation unless an engine is out; I don't believe there's any guidance to wait until V2.

Many cross-platform applications which store metadata in xattrs on Unix-based systems will use ADS for the same purpose.

E.g. Dropbox, which syncs some extended attributes (and uses some for internal metadata), seems to store them in the ADS on Windows.

Oh, they're not gone -- still very much part of APFS. You can read the contents of the resource fork for a file at path `$FILE` by reading `$FILE/..namedfork/rsrc`

The resource fork is still how custom icons for files and directories are implemented! (Look for a hidden file called `Icon\r` inside any directory with a custom icon, and you can dump its resource fork to a `.icns` file that Preview can open)

Hehe yep, but if we're doing vestigial nitpicks, I'd like to see an OpenResFile app that was ported to OS X and kept using the resfork to save its data. FAIK such a recalcitrant beast might even exist.

They also back transparent filesystem compression

This feels a little pedantic; I assume the commenter means that Tesla relies exclusively on vision, whereas Waymo additionally has sensors (i.e. lidar)

wow you weren't kidding -- the docs [0] for each of the "packages" could easily be confused with AI-generated text written as a joke

Never read similar self praise about every library, package, framework and programming language that exists?

I built one of these as I couldn't find anything online satisfying this niche! I always want to charge my phone while on the couch but hated unsightly cables hanging around the armrest or underneath. Plus, it gave me a convenient spot to put my surround speakers without needing to wall mount.

It's a reasonably easy project for someone with little woodworking experience.

Former Dropbox employee, just correcting one assumption:

> Dropbox's peak traffic is 1,500 queries per second (QPS).

I can't speak to search QPS directly, but most individual serving hosts for file sync/retrieval were receiving tens of thousands of QPS. The overall edge QPS peaked at several hundreds of thousands QPS every day across all the hosts. So I'd guess that even just search is an order of magnitude higher than 1,500 :)

I misread the article when it stated:

> Traffic regularly exceeded 1,500 queries per second (QPS) at peak times

It may be quite cost prohibitive to use a managed service like AWS Global Accelerator.
