If he died two years in a row, yeah, that warrants the front page

Then why is it there at all if you don't expect your users to notice it?

TL:DR: "My mac broke. I didn't actually bring it in to get it fixed, but fuck Apple for not fixing it anyway."

Do you actually think that taking it into an Apple store would have ended in the tech reflashing the GPU?

Besides the fact that transporting it could damage it further, he would probably would have just been told it was end of life or needed a new GPU altogether and the chances of them having said GPU in stock would be next to nothing.

Maybe it's just my area but Apple stores here do not actually repair products, they just tell you to buy a new one.

This is just silly - a computer is not a trauma victim, it's a piece of hardware.

My experience has been that they've spent two days isolating a problem on my 2005 iMac which I caused by using 3rd party RAM with the wrong timing - issue didn't appear well after I replaced the RAM (I replaced the RAM again, it worked fine).

Sounds like he didn't even call apple for help over the phone. When my ThinkPad breaks I'm on the phone to Lenovo right away.

The title of the article ("Timeless suits from London's Savile Row back in fashion") is a contradiction in terms. Either the suits are timeless OR they go in and out of fashion. Can't have both.

Any time you're working on a multi-page project, you will have items that get used across multiple pages. Navigation is the most common. If you're copy+pasting anything every time you add a new page, you're wasting time…

For me, master pages and something like Illustrator Symbols ("master elements", "template elements", whatever) save vast amounts of time for complex multi-page projects.

I designed at 2x (even pixel sizes) for a long time. Now I design at 1x using vector shapes. With vectors you can double the size and remain perfectly crisp. My workflow is now MUCH faster.

Bonus: 1x comps are better sized for clients to view on non-retina screens anyway. I always got complaints showing giant 640px wide mockups…

Evidently neither do title writer's

I have lived in Chiang Mai for the last two years. My wife has Thai citizenship, which allows me to get a one year renewable visa. Still have to do 90-day border runs (never figured out why).

Staying in Thailand for less than a year at a time is easy to do. If you want to stay on a more permanent basis you'll need to either get married (marriage visa), enroll in a Thai language school (education visa), or be over 65 and have 25 grand or so in the bank (retirement visa).

If you can wrangle something, it's a wonderful place to live. There are the well-known sights and the low cost of living, but for me it goes much deeper. I've become a calmer and more thoughtful person, quicker to smile and slower to anger just by spending two years among the Thai people.

Re: gexla's post – he makes it sound a little cavalier, but there really is a sense in Asia of "eventually this will work out somehow". There are limits and boundaries where this doesn't apply, of course, but in general I find the saying about India applies equally well to Thailand: "everything will be all right in the end. If it's not all right, it isn't the end" ;)

If innovation == blatant copying, yes, this will muddy the future of innovation. If, however, innovation == trying something that hasn't been done before, I fail to see how this will do anything but help.
