You can completely disable them for all websites, and allow notifications for some websites.

I disabled them and never see them anymore.

I hope this is a joke, but..

Go a head, take OSX and Windows 7 and compare between them, see how much it takes Windows 7 to crash and tell you: "do you want to send us a report?".

The report should be sent automatically and analyzed by computers before it reaches humans.

> while selling it as the user's benefit

I disagree.

Facebook, Google, Microsoft have a walled garden, in-fact every company on earth thinks on how to keep customers from leaving.

The difference between Apple and others is that Apple products are far superior, i can't imagine myself using any Microsoft product if Apple provides it.

_yields | 13 years ago | on: Should i Quit?

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I started programming 1 year ago, i'm a self taught programmer, that's basically it.

I know a lot of programming languages, mainly Google Go, PHP, Javascript and some Scala.

I have some customers i did a little bit of freelancing.

The funny thing is that in my job interview for the current job, i asked "do you use bdd testing" to which he replied "what's unit testing".

the problem i'm having is that most companies from where i am from, don't use or know those stuff....
