Don't Close That Window Edition
Don't Close That Window Edition
Tech News
- I was drafting this in one window while working on other things, and I closed the window without saving. Blurp.
- Tesla's Cybertruck is here and it looks like the box other Tesla models come in. (Tech Crunch)
- The Radeon 5500 performs within a few FPS of the 580 while using 40% less power. (WCCFTech)
Sounds great for all-in-one systems like the iMac or the Inspiron 27 if Dell ever produces a new version of that which doesn't suck.
- GitLab 12.5 is out and includes, uh, a bunch of stuff. (GitLab)
Mostly stuff I'm not much interested in, but I note that since 11.0 it integrates open-source Slack competitor Mattermost right into the GitLab installer. I probably saw that before but never got around to trying it out.
- If you need a great mini-ITX Ryzen server motherboard, here isn't one for you. (Serve the Home)
The ASRock Rack X570D4I-2T has an X570 chipset, with 4 SO-DIMM slots (and ECC support), 8 SATA ports, two 10GBaseT ports, a separate port for IPMI, one PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot, one PCIE 4.0 x16 slot, and an indeterminate number of USB ports.
There's no picture though because ASRock lost the board.
- Apple's greatest weakness is that their software is crap. (Macworld)
They're not alone in that.
- Apple has deleted all customer ratings and reviews from all product pages on their website. (AppleInsider)
They're not alone in... Wait, no, it was also Apple who lost millions of user reviews from their app store.

Gee, I can hardly wait for the Cybertruck to show up on the local streets. And in case you couldn't tell, I was being sarcastic.

I kind of like it. Has a 70s sci-fi vibe.

Apple's software is full of bugs because Xcode is a horrifying reminder of what writing code was like in 2004.
I've been redoing an Android app in Flutter at work so we can sell it to iOS-using customers, and switching from Android Studio to Xcode is like jumping into a vat of ice water full of piranhas.

I've been looking at writing more code in Crystal but that means leaving behind my Jetbrains tools (mainly PyCharm, but I have a full subscription).
VSCode just doesn't cut it.
