The problem is the software. macOS could remind you to charge the night before, but it always ends up needing charging in the morning as you're ready to start working. One engineer could fix the problem in under an hour if anyone at Apple cared about user xperience.
I’ve used one of those for years and there’s never been any impact on the user experience. Every few months, the low battery warning pops up. At that point, it will still work for hours and it only takes a few minutes to charge so even if it popped up first thing in the morning I’d plug it in the next time I got coffee, went to a meeting, walked the dog, etc.
Designing the mouse so it is useless while the charging cable is connected means that if the battery no longer takes a charge the mouse becomes e-waste.
Author doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The knight is a knight because its L-shaped movement represents a flanking maneuver, which cavalry is good at.
Most of them seemed pretty reasonable, but yeah the knight bit was a bit off odd.
> From the very beginning of chaturanga, this piece—originally called asva, Sanskrit for “horse”—has firmly maintained its equine association. Of course, this is likely because it is the only piece that is able to jump over the heads of the other pieces.
Of course, the common battle tactic of flanking via leaping your horse over the other side’s lines. A very real and widespread thing that occurred in every culture that had chess.
When tech bro capitalists pit customer vs. worker in order to artificially increase their profits, we're all the victims. The only moral option is to tip 0% on iPad counter screens, all the time.
Well yeah, when 25% of households have a wage earner who lost their job due to COVID that will send a much larger hit to the economy than those unemployment payments ever could. Even then they merely helped people float along.
"plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose" translates as "the more things change, the more they stay the same." The only reason I know this is from Rush lyrics ;)
