Plus Shopify and GitHub must drive most development of Rails so it’s basically an in-house dependency to some extent. I know that’s simplifying things.
Users care they just don’t know why many modern websites are bad websites. Every website is now an app whether that actually makes it better UX or not.
I have to fly or take a ferry to get to an Apple Store. There isn't one on Vancouver Island. So it's great when you can get to one, but if you can't the support is not so good.
Please put dates on things that are published. It can be important information for readers. Leaving off dates is frustrating and doesn't make the content any fresher in any way.
I have the fastest upload available in my area (5 Mbps) and my initial backup may have taken a month or two for something to the tune of 900 GB. You certainly don't need 1 Gbps to backup remotely but 500 Kbps might not be quite enough.
I had a Creative Nomad jukebox and it was so bad I went back to an MP3 discman (all the while laughing at the $500 iPod). I had never owned an Apple product.

Facebook has dealt mainly with software till now, but look at all the projects Google has tackled. Self-driving vehicles, fiber Internet service, blanketing cities with wifi, Google Glass, fighting for net neutrality. Google has the talent, bank roll, and ambition to tackle something monumental that spans hardware, deals with regulatory overhead, involves a lot of on-the-ground grunt work, etc.
Apple has the resources to tackle such problems as well but hasn't shown the will to do things like street view or fight for net neutrality, which is probably why people think of Google more than Apple when they think of such problems.
It's a disgusting hack and it works very well. I didn't find anything useful in the man page so I wrote this instead. Looks like there is something in the man page but I think my hack was probably faster.
You can check for many things on either side. Even if you're paranoid checking 2-3 of these should suffice. There's nothing bullet-proof if someone is trying to fool the test.
In the browser: window, window === this, document, navigator, many JS APIs such as Audio, Canvas, many DOM and CSS objects, etc. The top level is littered with these things.
