Italy's land border follows the watershed that separates the drainage basins of northern and southern Europe. Running mostly at high altitudes, it crosses snowfields and perennial glaciers—all of which are now melting as a result of anthropogenic climate change. As the watershed shifts so does the border, diverging from its representation on official maps. Italy, Austria, and Switzerland have consequently introduced the novel legal concept of a "moving border," which acknowledges the volatility of geographical features once thought to be stable. The book builds upon the Italian Limes project by Studio Folder, which started in 2014 to survey the fluctuations of the boundary line in real time. It brings together critical essays, visualizations, maps and documents from state archives to show how natural borders are produced through spatial and historical narratives—and hints at the challenges that global warming poses to Western conceptions of territory.
Marco Ferrari is an architect and codirector of Studio Folder, a design and research studio based in Milan. He graduated at IUAV in Venice and holds a MA in history and theory from the Architectural Association in London. His research centers on the relationship between cartography, visual representation, and politics, working across a diverse range of outcomes and research methodologies. Ferrari has been one of the founding partners of the architecture collective Salottobuono, and was creative director of Domus magazine between 2011 and 2013. He has been teaching Information Design at ISIA in Urbino since 2010 and at IUAV in Venice between 2013 and 2016.
Elisa Pasqual is a designer and codirector of Studio Folder. She has recently finished a PhD in design sciences at IUAV in Venice, with a research that maps the evolution of the visual communication of nation states at the intersection of design, politics, and identity. She taught visual design at the bachelor's and master's level at IUAV from 2008 to 2015.
Andrea Bagnato is an architect and book editor. Since 2014 he has been working on the research project Terra Infecta, which looks at epidemiology as an agent of urban and territorial transformation. Bagnato has previously worked as publications manager for the first Chicago Architecture Biennial, and is currently head of publications for the Sharjah Architecture Triennial. He also teaches at the Architectural Association and Piet Zwart Institute.

(Redirected from Greenwich)
The Royal Borough of Greenwich and its 17 wards
The Royal Borough of Greenwich is an inner London Borough in south-east London, originally in Kent. It was formed in 1965 (as the London Borough of Greenwich) by merging the former metropolitan borough of Greenwich with most of Woolwich. It became a Royal Borough in 2012 to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
Greenwich is notable for the magnificent former Royal Naval College facing the river, plus the National Maritime Museum and the former Royal Observatory, which defines the Greenwich Meridian (0° longitude) and Greenwich Mean Time. The North Greenwich peninsula is the site of The O2 (formerly the Millennium Dome).
In 1984 a Greenwich Gay and Lesbian Rights Group was based at 18 Haddo Street, Greenwich, S.E.10. In 1986 a Lesbian and Gay Centre was opened in Bowater Road, Charlton. The centre was renamed The Metro Centre in 1994. The centre relocated to Greenwich High Road in 1997.
The George and Dragon is a local gay pub.

"The ABC's Of New Home Warranty"
Purchasers of pre-construction condos are often mystified about the warranty protection programs available on their newly built units. Questions such as: "Who is responsible if I discover a defect or uncover signs of poor workmanship after I move in" — come up fairly often.
Unfortunately, rarely do lawyers or builder-sales reps make an effort to explain the intricacies involved. We'll touch on some of the main features here and point you to some other useful resources at the end of the post.
Before taking possession of your new unit, builders are required to perform what's called a pre-delivery inspection (PDI).
A representative of the builder will walk you through a detailed inspection, pointing out how to operate systems such as heating, plumbing and ventilation. This is also your opportunity to pinpoint any items that appear damaged, work not completed or perhaps upgrades that are missing.
The notes are captured on the builder's PDI form and are used to verify that these issues existed prior to you the buyer taking occupancy. It's also good idea to note any items not installed or completed according to the specifications in the purchase agreement.
What are the areas covered by your Tarion Warranty?
In the event that your builder goes bankrupt or breaches the terms of the purchase agreement, Tarion will protect your deposits to a maximum of $20,000. Deposits paid for all other new homes are protected to a maximum of $40,000. Beware though, funds given to hold a condo unit before you have an official signed purchase agreement are not protected under the warranty.
This mechanism is in place to protect you in the event that the move-in date (occupancy) outlined in the purchase agreement (or any extension of that date) is not adhered to by the builder. In practice, the wording on just about every builder's purchase agreement is layered with clauses that allow quite a degree of flexibility here. Your key task is to read through this section carefully or have your lawyer explain explicitly what's being conveyed.
This protects the purchaser from a builder unscrupulously substituting items specified in the purchase agreement. For example, if a particular back-splash color or material was agreed to, substitution without your written authorization is not allowed.
This also extends to the inclusion of specifics (think stainless steel appliance by a notable brand, shutters or blinds of a particular suasion etc.). Your recourse as a purchaser is to demand that the original items specified be included or that a cash compensation be given. In practice, again, your purchase/sale contract will often include a clause allowing the builder to provide you a close match, or the next best substitute, often deemed by availability.
What are the Warranty's Exclusions?
Surface defects in work and materials specified and accepted in writing by the owner at the date of possession.
We've only scratched the surface of this subject. I suggest visiting Tarion's website for a more comprehensive addressing of the topics above. In addition, you may want to visit the Ontario New Home Warranties Act for the legislative aspect. As always, do not hesitate to email or call me with any of your real estate or mortgage financing questions or concerns!


At less than 2,500 square miles, Delaware is the country's second smallest state. Delaware has less than a dozen nonprofit colleges and universities, including Delaware State University and the University of Delaware.
The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the population of Delaware at nearly 945,000 in 2015, a more than five percent increase from the 2010 U.S. Census. The state is located on the eastern seaboard, about halfway between New York and Washington D.C., and features a mix of beach towns, farmland and bustling cities.
Delaware's climate is moderate year round. Popular beach towns in the state include Bethany Beach, Dewey Beach, Lewes and Rehoboth Beach, along with Fenwick Island. Delaware also is home to several unique museums, including the Johnson Victrola Museum in Dover. Sports fans can catch a minor league baseball game featuring the Wilmington Blue Rocks, or watch the Delaware 87ers in Newark, an affiliate of the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers.
The University of Delaware in Newark was ranked 75th among national universities by U.S. News & World Report in 2016. It also ranks as the state's largest postsecondary school, with more than 22,600 students as of Fall 2014. Other public schools in Delaware include Delaware State University in Dover and the Delaware Technical Community College campuses in Wilmington, Georgetown and Dover.
Private nonprofit schools in the state include Wesley College in Dover, Goldley-Beacom College in Wilmington, and Wilmington University in New Castle.
Top industries in Delaware are healthcare; government; chemical, pharmaceutical and technology companies; education; and banking. The state's key crops and commodities include corn, wheat, potatoes and soybeans.
As of 2015, the state's top employers included Christiana Care Health System and Christiana Hospital, both in Newark; the U.S. 436 Military Airlift Wing at Dover Air Force Base; Adult Medicine Office Christiana in Wilmington; and Mountaire Farms of Delaware in Millsboro.

Q: How to connect to MySQL installed on Compute Engine from App Engine Standard? I want to migrate my website (PHP + MySQL) from shared hosting to Google Cloud.
My first attempt was to host the database on Google Cloud SQL and deploy the PHP code to the App Engine standard environment, I've tested it and it works perfectly, but that setup is way beyond my budget.
To reduce costs I have thought:

*

*Have the database on Compute Engine.

*Deploy PHP code to the App Engine standard environment

Regarding (1) I have installed MySQL on Compute Engine without any problem. From the console of my local device I have been able to enter MySQL, create a test database, create users, etc.
When I run gcloud compute instances list I can see that the instance exists and is running:
NAME   ZONE           MACHINE_TYPE  PREEMPTIBLE  INTERNAL_IP  EXTERNAL_IP  STATUS
mysql  us-central1-a  e2-micro                   N.NNN.N.N                 RUNNING

Regarding (2) I have created a minimal test setup. An app.yaml file with the following content:
runtime: php81

# [START cloud_tasks_app_env_vars]
env: standard
# [END cloud_tasks_app_env_vars]

handlers:
# Serve your app through a front controller at index.php or public/index.php.
- url: .*
  script: auto

And an index.php file that tries to connect to the database in two ways.
Using localhost or the IP of the instance:
try {

    $username = "root";
    $password = "THEPASSWORD";
    $dbName = "THEDATABASE";

    /*
        I tryed all these $host values
        without success
    */
    $host='INSTANCENAME';
    $host='NN.NNN.N.N'; #Instance IP
    $host='127.0.0.1';
    $host='localhost';
    $dsn = sprintf(
        'mysql:dbname=%s;host=%s',
        $dbName,
        $host
    );

    $conn = new PDO(
        $dsn,
        $username,
        $password
    );

Using unix socket:
try {

    $username = "root";
    $password = "THEPASSWORD";
    $dbName = "THEDATABASE";
    $instanceUnixSocket = "/cloudsql/MYPROJECT:us-central1-a:INSTANCENAME";
    $dsn = sprintf(
        'mysql:dbname=%s;unix_socket=%s',
        $dbName,
        $instanceUnixSocket
    );

    // Connect to the database.
    $conn = new PDO(
        $dsn,
        $username,
        $password
    );

In neither of the two cases the connection is possible, getting the error:

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory in
/workspace/index.php:NN

Where NN is the line where I declare the $dsn variable.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The instance where I installed MySQL and App Engine are in the same project.
I want to know where is my error and how can I connect to MySQL like this.
I've searched the Google documentation and this site for a similar case, and I've seen two questions for which no satisfactory solution is given.
If there is a better way to achieve my purpose, I appreciate any guidance on that. It is not easy for a beginner in Google Cloud to decide on the most suitable tools.

Workers injured in a motor vehicle accident will be forced to choose between filing a claim under the workers compensation scheme and the reformed compulsory third party insurance scheme. However ACT government officials say the arrangement won't disadvantage claimants or lead to shopping between the two schemes. Under the proposed CTP scheme, anyone injured in a motor vehicle accident will be able to access treatment, care and income support for up to five years regardless of fault. The Barr government says it will mean an extra 600 people injured on Canberra's roads per year will be able to access paid treatment and care, although the legal fraternity says it comes at the expense of lump sum payments for 90 per cent of claimants under the current scheme. As it stands, workers injured in a car accident can file both a workers compensation and CTP claim, although one scheme pays back the other. That will no longer be the case under the incoming CTP scheme, which has similar benefits to the workers compensation scheme. Under Treasurer David Nicol told annual reports hearings recently the government was still working through how the schemes would interact, but it would likely involve a choice between schemes. "I think the matter of question is how long is that person [going to] have an opportunity to choose a scheme, can you change your decision after a certain period of time, questions of that nature. So that's where complexity arises and we're just working through that now, going through different cases and what it means for different people and different situations," Mr Nicol said. "We're looking at cases and seeing what typically happens in circumstances of injuries, what period is reasonable for people to choose and when are they able to make that choice depending on the seriousness of their injuries etcetera and I think obviously there's a rationale to give people a very reasonable period to choose, they should be able to choose the circumstances that best suit their needs at the time." The guide to the exposure draft of the legislation said claimants would only have one month to pick, which Blumers Lawyers director Noor Blumer described as "a ridiculously short period of time". "Such a decision should not be made until there is a proper understanding of the extent of the effect of the injury on the person in terms of long term treatment and ability to work," she said. But Mr Nicol told the committee there was "a desire of course not to have people change between the schemes unnecessarily". "We don't want to cut the decision making off too soon before the people have actually gone through the immediate medical assistance, immediate treatment etc so it's a judgement more about when that person is in the best possible place to make a fully informed decision so what their long term prognosis is, to be able to understand and to be advised of the benefits under both schemes etc as so they can make a rational decision. We do not want them to make a decision in haste they will subsequently regret," he said. The directorate's executive director of workplace safety and industrial relations, Michael Young, said there were differences in the benefits in both schemes, particularly in income support. CTP claimants will be able to get 95 per cent of their income for three months then 80 per cent for five years, with only those classified as over the 10 per cent whole of person impairment threshold able to sue for longer support. Workers compensation claimants can get income support based on their average weekly earnings until they return to work, or a top up if they're performing different duties and earning less. However, Mr Young said the difficulty in making a successful claim for a work-related car crash meant it was unlikely people would shop between the two schemes. "For a common law damages settlement to succeed under the workers compensation scheme there needs to be negligence by the employer, it's very difficult to show negligence in the case of a journey claim where the injury you would expect is on a public road so we don't see a lot of common law settlements in journey claims," Mr Young said. "Where we have seen them it tends be around shift work and fatigue where [employers] had some sort of control under so workers compensation common law around motor vehicle claims on journeys tend not to have a high frequency of common law settlements." Mr Young also said it was difficult to compare benefits as it depended on how long and how severe one's injuries were as to which scheme was better. "Hypothetically if an injured worker knew exactly how long they were going to be injured for and the amount of earnings they were going to lose, then it would be a relatively simple things to do a calculation and form a view on which services are best or would result in a particular financial outcome," Mr Young said. "It really does depend on the injury severity we're talking about so there is no fixed one scheme is better than the other, the answer is it depends, which is why I believe the policy in place is to have a choice because that provides that, effectively 'no one is worse off' is the wrong definition to use because at the moment there is no choice to make, they'd be tied to the workers compensation statutory benefits and now there is a choice so in a sense there's a chance to improve the position of workers with dual coverage by allowing a choice between the two." However Unions ACT told a separate inquiry into the CTP bill that any sections of the legislation that would affect the rights of injured workers should be removed. "Our understanding is that currently a person injured in a work-related motor accident can access the larger compensation benefit of the two schemes (either CTP or workers compensation)," its submission said. "The proposed scheme appears to require that the injured worker choose between the two schemes at an early time, and then be excluded from the other scheme. We are also concerned that a person receiving workers compensation could be prevented from accessing compensation under the new CTP scheme." The draft legislation will be introduced into the Legislative Assembly next year.

However, Mr Young said the difficulty in making a successful claim for a work-related car crash meant it was unlikely people would shop between the two schemes.
"For a common law damages settlement to succeed under the workers compensation scheme there needs to be negligence by the employer, it's very difficult to show negligence in the case of a journey claim where the injury you would expect is on a public road so we don't see a lot of common law settlements in journey claims," Mr Young said.
"Where we have seen them it tends be around shift work and fatigue where [employers] had some sort of control under so workers compensation common law around motor vehicle claims on journeys tend not to have a high frequency of common law settlements."
Mr Young also said it was difficult to compare benefits as it depended on how long and how severe one's injuries were as to which scheme was better.
"Hypothetically if an injured worker knew exactly how long they were going to be injured for and the amount of earnings they were going to lose, then it would be a relatively simple things to do a calculation and form a view on which services are best or would result in a particular financial outcome," Mr Young said.
"It really does depend on the injury severity we're talking about so there is no fixed one scheme is better than the other, the answer is it depends, which is why I believe the policy in place is to have a choice because that provides that, effectively 'no one is worse off' is the wrong definition to use because at the moment there is no choice to make, they'd be tied to the workers compensation statutory benefits and now there is a choice so in a sense there's a chance to improve the position of workers with dual coverage by allowing a choice between the two."
However Unions ACT told a separate inquiry into the CTP bill that any sections of the legislation that would affect the rights of injured workers should be removed.
"Our understanding is that currently a person injured in a work-related motor accident can access the larger compensation benefit of the two schemes (either CTP or workers compensation)," its submission said.
"The proposed scheme appears to require that the injured worker choose between the two schemes at an early time, and then be excluded from the other scheme. We are also concerned that a person receiving workers compensation could be prevented from accessing compensation under the new CTP scheme."
The draft legislation will be introduced into the Legislative Assembly next year.

Baidu credits AI focus for annual revenue increase
Baidu posted net income of 27.6 billion yuan ($4 billion) for the 12 month period, an increase of 51 percent year over year.

Baidu announced on Thursday its full year financial results to 31 December 2018, posting revenue of 102.3 billion yuan ($14.88 billion). This was an increase of 22 percent year over year -- or 28 percent year over year if the impact of divested businesses such as Baidu Mobile Games, Baidu Deliveries, Global DU businesses, and Du Xiaoman are excluded -- with the search giant citing increased deployment of AI technologies for the increases.
"2018 was a pivotal year for Baidu, as we worked on deploying AI technologies beyond search to feed voice assistant, AI solutions, and autonomous driving, to enable more users, customers, and partners to benefit from Baidu's AI," CEO Robin Li said.
Of that combined revenue, online marketing revenues accounted for 82 billion yuan ($12 billion) for the full year, up 19 percent year over year. Baidu also had approximately 856,000 active online marketing customers for the same period, increasing 10 percent year over year.
Other revenues -- mainly derived from growth in its iQiyi membership services and cloud businesses -- provided the remaining 20.4 billion yuan ($2.86 billion) of Baidu's total revenue. During the eve of Chinese New Year, Baidu's Cloud infrastructure handled 20.8 billion user interactions, with the cloud experiencing 10 million hits per second at its peak volume.
Revenue from its online video platform iQIYI reached 25 billion yuan ($3.63 billion), increasing 52% from 2017. IQIYI had 87.4 million subscribers as of December 31, of which 98.5 percent were paying members, Baidu said.
Meanwhile, Baidu Core revenue reached 78.3 billion yuan ($11.38 billion), increasing 22 percent year over year.
Net income for Baidu was 27.6 billion yuan ($4 billion), which was an increase of 51 percent from the year prior, and its adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) was 24.3 billion yuan ($3.54 billion).
Operating income was 15.5 billion yuan ($2.26 billion), down one percent year over year, with the company's operating margin in 2018 sitting at 15 percent compared to 20 percent the year prior.
Content costs increased to 7.3 billion yuan ($1.07 billion) and bandwidth costs rose to 1.8 billion yuan ($258 million), up 96 percent and 27 percent year over year, respectively, with the company saying this was due to investments into content and increased demands for its feed, video, and cloud.
Moving forward, Li said the company will continue diversifying its portfolio as "smart home, smart transportation, cloud, and autonomous driving markets will require heavy investments".
Late last year, Baidu and Ford Motor Company had commenced trials to test autonomous vehicles in Beijing, China.
Baidu in 2018 also ended its operations in Brazil in a move to redistribute resources from business units responsible for apps and mobile advertising, as well as financial, to put more emphasis into AI.

PM has much to hide about Rafale deal: Congress
PTI New Delhi, Delhi, India Oct 14, 2018, 06.06 PM(IST)
Anand Sharma. Photograph:( ANI )
Questioning Modi's silence over the deal, senior Congress leader Anand Sharma claimed that only the prime minister was aware that the offset contracts would not be given to Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL).
Continuing with its campaign against the government over the Rafale deal, the Congress Sunday claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was directly involved in it, adding that he had much to hide about it.
"It was his (Modi's) decision. Only he was privy to what he was going to do," Sharma said, addressing a press conference at the party office here.
It was expected that the prime minister would speak on this issue of national importance, but he continued to remain silent while making tall claims about his government, the Congress leader said.
"The prime minister has much to hide in the Rafale deal. His silence raises fundamental questions, because he is directly complicit and personally accountable for it," he alleged.
Claiming that the Rafale deal was the biggest scam in the history of the country, Sharma reiterated his party's demand for setting up a Joint Parliamentary Committee to look into it.
The former Union minister also questioned Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's visit to France, during which she will take stock of the progress of French firm Dassault Aviation supplying 36 Rafale jets to the Indian Air Force under the Rs 58,000-crore deal.
Sharma maintained that there was a hike in the price of the fighter aircraft India was buying from France and asserted that the prime minister needed to clear many doubts about the deal that had been raised.
He said more details of the deal would emerge if a forensic audit of it was carried out.
The Congress has been claiming that the aircraft will cost significantly more than what the previous United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government was negotiating.
The opposition party has also been demanding answers from the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government as to why HAL was not involved in the deal as finalised during the UPA regime.

In the Land of Giants
hunting monsters in the Hindu Kush
Gabi Martínez (trans. Daniel Hahn)
'A book that caught me from beginning to end, in which many genres are combined. It is a classic book of adventures, but it is also the biography of a character that has fascinated me, a kind of Lawrence of Arabia with many contrasts.'
John Carlin, author of Playing the Enemy
'A dark and hypnotic book, the chronicle of a fascination (or two) that leads us to remote and majestic places, to the Kiplingesque Hindu Kush, where adventure has simmered for centuries, and which also leads us to the most remote and sinister side of the human soul.'
'Martinez ably conjures the scent of juniper, the taste of black, salty tea and the sight of a 40-donkey convoy heading to Panjsh.'
'The translation skilfully captures the eccentric nature of the prose, and Martínez's fascination comes through clearly.'
Ali Bhutto, TLS
'Enthralling from beginning to end, In the Land of Giants is an inspired telling of an uncommon story.'
West Australian
'A murder mystery more intriguing than anything you could make up.'
Sunday Territorian
'When reading this book, one gets gusts of the best of Kipling, and also of Chatwin, even of Robert Byron. It's the story of an obsessive trip, of a murder, of several love affairs, of a journey, of an adventurer who got lost forever, of the danger latent in trying to uncover an elusive truth and a truth only meaningful for he who wants it told (and then also, of course, for the fortunate reader). Fascinating from start to finish, In the Land of Giants is the kind of incredible story only an excess of reality can provide.'
'The imagination has its sanctuaries, too.'
High up in the Hindu Kush, between the ancient pagan Kalash people and the new medievalists of the Taliban, a charismatic young Spaniard, Jordi Magraner, made his home, mastering the local languages and customs before meeting his death in the most mysterious way. In this magisterial book, Gabi Martínez sets off in Jordi's footsteps to the land of the giants in order to try to solve the riddle of this murder and of Jordi's life.
Jordi Magraner was a brilliant student of the natural world, whose lab was the ravine and the scarp and the tent. His observational investigations led him to places where the legendary barmanu had been sighted, and he began to develop a thesis about the life of the wild man. His passion for pursuit and discovery took him onto ever more perilous terrain in the Pakistani-Afghan borderlands. And, one by one, Jordi turned his back on the Europeans who sought to assist him, preferring instead to entrust his safety to an Afghan youth fleeing the Taliban, and to a wondrous working dog called Fjord.
Jordi sought other rewards, and followed a winding, rocky path, down which Gabi Martínez resourcefully tracks him on this enthralling journey of detection and adventure in the Himalayas — where the truth is never as clear and pristine as the majestic mountains and the fast-flowing streams.

Ahmed from Bank Al Habib
One of the Best Searching Engine
Recommended to all to use and experience one the best searching application
I like the most about its easy and usable interface which allow to access the information around the world and also show relevant information to the user
Nothing is least like because it is emerging day by day
Maaz from Comsats University
Microsoft Edge is very excellent replacement of Internet Explorer launched by Microsoft. Due to its good speed, and easy integration of other softwares, I do not feel the need of installing a separate web browser to my windows.
Microsoft Edge is a successful attempt by Microsoft Inc to replace its always complained about Internet Explorer with something worthy of its opponents like chrome, firefox etc. It has a sleak and intuitive design and a minimal interface which leaves enough screen space to users for browsing content. The home screen interface is lso customizable and you can select the screen of your type from options. It loads content faster due to its improved algorithms and low memory requirements. The private browsing mode is also very effective in evading cookies. Also it provies improved privacy due to its superb tracking prevention mechanism. Microsoft has worked a lot to integrate good playback tools in Edge. It also supports alot of third party software loke pdf reader, etc and work flawlessly with them. Along with its own plug-ins, it also support extensions offered in Chrome extensions store. Though its default search engine is bing but you can change it to Google easily.
Microsoft Edge has high system requirements, which means that it won't work on low end devices, but other than that I haven't encountered any hurdles while using it till now.
Reasons for Switching to Microsoft Edge
Because Edge is giving the same performance to say the least, so I find it better to go with windows own browser than a third party software.
Victor from ExtExc
It feels like Microsoft is finally back to the browser space with this new fantastic browser. For once compatibility is no longer an issue, which gives Microsoft more time to focus on fine-tuning performance and web developers time to make better websites instead of worrying about what will work in the default browser of Windows computers all over the world. This step has resulted in a browser that is far ahead of the competition with less effort and lots of great improvements.
The new Microsoft Edge uses the same engine as most other popular browsers yet it manages to load noticeably faster in most circumstances both when navigating the browser and when browsing the web. Microsoft has improved performance and resource allocation in almost every aspect. This browser gives the same familiarity and convenience as any Chromium-based browser but with Microsoft knowledge on system optimization on top of it all.
This browser has not yet been officially released on Linux and that is a disadvantage compared to most other Chromium-based browsers where you can keep your settings synchronized across different platforms.
The overall performance and improved resource management.
Hadjer from Freelancer
Not bad as a browser
Microsoft Edge provides an acceptable experience. I'm delighted to see how hard Microsoft has worked to improve the performance of Microsoft Edge but there are still a lot of improvements to be made to make it my default browser.
I've been using Microsoft Edge for an amount of time to test it. The browser correctly provides tje necessary basics and presents the adress bar and search bar at the top with all enabled extensions displayed in the upper-left corne. On Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Defender can protect users from malicious websites and downloads and block apps from unknown sources.
Microsoft is making a concerted effort to improve the Edge browser's functionning by introducing new capabilities but in my opinion, they should rather focus on its speed and bugs.
Gabriel from SERGAB Consultoría

Microsft Edge has work to be done!
Overall I must say that Microsoft Edge is a much better version of IE but still isn´t good enough as other web browsers that are out there.
I like the fact that it is easy to go back to recently closed tabs.
I dislike the fact that it is still slow to bring up web pages and it takes too much time to look for the web pages I am looking for. It seems it´s too slow.
Juan Jesús from Persano Mx
Se ha reinventado completamente, no pensé hablar bien de este explorador
Me han convencido como navegador web y me gusta que sigan agregando funciones para mejorar la experiencia de usuario.
Es mucho más ligero que muchos navegadores, su integración con Open Source le dio una estabilidad muy grande, su función de hacer Aplicación algunas plataformas en web para que tengan un ícono directo es muy útil. Las herramientas de poder agrupar ventanas y moverlas a barra lateral me encantó.
Aun tiene fallas con sus versiones para otros sistemas operativos como linux para poder sincronizar cuentas empresariales o profesionales de microsoft.
La estabilidad y el bajo consumo de recursos al usarlo con respecto a otros navegadores además de la función de espera en pestañas que están abiertas y no se han consultado recientemente.
Stacy-Ann from University of the West Indies
Microsoft Edge-"A lightweight browser that is easy to use"
Even though Microsoft Edge has limited features, it is an efficient browser that is easy to use. I have been able to surf the internet quickly because the browser loads web pages quickly and provides search results in a matter of seconds. Consequently, I have been able to conduct online research in a timely and efficient manner. Furthermore, at my past workplace I have been more productive when I use Microsoft Edge. For instance, I have been able to open, access and review PDF files such as reports, memos, and letters, using Microsoft Edge. Consequently, I was able to complete my tasks faster.
I like that Microsoft Edge is a lightweight browser, therefore, it does not use up a lot of storage space on my devices. Moreover, since it is a lightweight browser, it loads web pages quickly. Consequently, it has been my preferred browser at home and at work, when I want to load pages with a lot of content. As a result, I have been able to conduct research at work and at home in an efficient manner. Moreover, the browser is easy to use and it has never crashed. Therefore, I have never experienced any delays when conducting research online. Therefore, I have been able to complete tasks and avoid the frustration that I usually experience with other web browsers that take a while to load web pages. Furthermore, I open PDF files such as reports, memos, and letters, using Microsoft Edge because it is very compatible with that file type.
Although, Microsoft Edge an efficient web browser, it has some disadvantages. One disadvantage is that it does not have a lot of features such as extensions and plug-ins. Another disadvantage is that I get a lot of error messages, when I try to open collaboration websites like Blackboard Collaborate, Zoom, or Microsoft Teams in Microsoft Edge. In most cases, I get an error message that says that my browser is outdated, even though I have the latest version of the web browser.
Krzysztof from Mościcki Nieruchomości
The best search engine
I have used Chrome before, but I noticed that what I browse has an impact on what ads appear in the browser in a moment, it may be helpful but not everyone suits it, besides, Edge opens faster, you can see that there are newer solutions used than in Chrome and it is not so empty, it can be the home page
The browser connects faster to the Internet than google chrome, I also like the fact that the home page is not empty but contains the necessary information weather exchange rates news and the user has the option to change the page layout
It seems to me that everything is ok, that's why I use it.
Edge is in my opinion better and faster
On The Edge With Microsoft Edge
Overall I would say my experience with Microsoft Edge has been good. It has a lot of useful features with allowing users to download Extensions which greatly opens its overall usefulness. It's not as heavy on computer memory as other browsers but at the same time it's not that huge of a difference. For people looking for a new web browser to use it might be worth giving Microsoft Edge a chance since it's free.
There are a couple of reasons why I use Microsoft Edge, and majority of the time I use it on my Microsoft Surface Pro rather than on my main computer. For one I've noticed that Edge doesn't seem to use as much memory on your computer than other browsers. That could potentially help with mobile devices and tablets using battery power as using less memory means the device isn't working as hard so there's less power being used. A great feature that Microsoft Edge has is Extensions. Extensions allow you install add-ons to the browser that can give you extra features like adblocking, VPNs, music players, themes, social media accounts, and many more.
I really don't have anything bad to say about Microsoft Edge. The main reason why I don't use it more often is because I've been using another browser that I have been using for years and there's no desire for me to switch at this point. If I had to say one thing I liked least about the software it's that it took too long for it to be developed and pushed out to the public. By the time it came out there were already numerous browsers out and people have probably already decided on which browser was best for them.
Martin Luther King from Avantor
Good and innovative browser
Overall my experience has been satisfactory.
I like it ease of use and robust security, plus it interconnection with Microsoft environment. It is fast and reliable browser.
There's not much I would say that I don't like about it. I would a like that the screenshot feature could load faster than it does.

I'm not a fan for this software, thus I can't find something would impress me.
Microsoft Edge is somehow being slow in technology, takes a lot of memory and useless features.
moin from SANMAR Properties Ltd.
Secondary Browsing Option "Microsoft Edge"
Fewer year back when i first use this software , I was irritated by its slowness. It has problem with bugs and glitches. Browser does not work properly. Search engine option was terrible at that time. But recently they update their software. They have included download option. Now they are focusing on better user experience. Now I can use this as secondary browsing option.
Recently they have updated their software , it includes better download experience, bookmark options, privacy mode, better search engine option and good user interface. They have lot more options to improve .If they can improve then i can use it as my primary software.
Reaction time of Edge was very slow. They are continuously improving their software though they have lot more to improve such as removing bugs and glitches .
For my personal browsing I use Edge.
Once you get used to it, it's great
Really straight forward once you adapt to the change from your old browser. I'm a big fan and don't plan on going back to Chrome
None that I've found yet - i'm sure like any software there will be some eventually but all flying great so far
Bornventure from Self-Employed
Microsoft Edge - The fastest Browser in the Market
Microsoft Edge is very secure and I have been trusting it with all my payment details and address information for almost two years without any issues. The fact that It runs based on my Microsoft Account makes it easier to fill in online forms without having to remember the details because of It's powerful autofill features and also Shopping online has never been such a breeze.
Edge is perfection at It's best, It's super fast, very smooth, and easy to use. Microsoft Edge made me abandon other browsers like Mozilla and Chrome for the sole reason of It's capabilities in integrating seamlessly with all of my plugins and applications. Running a local server on my computer has never been such a breeze thanks to the power of Edge. It runs on all my devices from my Xbox 360 to my Android Phone and of course all my Computers and so far there's nothing to complain about it. Browsing is a big part of my Career and Edge with It's easy features and nicely placed bookmark manager makes this a whole lot easier.
The one issue I've found with Edge as compared to Chrome is the search engine, Bing doesn't really bring up the best sites when searching for a specific keyword like Google does. Also a few sites, specifically local websites like governmental one that we use to file Taxes and Apply for Tenders don't work well with Edge as they do on Google Chrome, this normally forces me to switch to Chrome when accessing those specific websites.
I found Microsoft Edge to be more comfortable and easier to use than any other browser in the market.

Powerful yet, underrated internet browser
Undoubtedly Microsoft Edge is one of the best internet browser available with many unique features under its sleeve. If privacy is your priority then Edge is the most secure option for you even if in the past you have vowed to stay away from Microsoft internet browser.
Fast and stable, having used various browsers I have found that Microsoft edge consumes comparatively lesser RAM even when multi tasking. Robust privacy features like blocking trackers. Many websites rely on trackers to gather data about your internet browsing . At my office, we always have the Strict option enabled to prevent tracking of our browsing data. This is a great feature for enterprise use. Ability to use extensions in private mode, I could never do this with google chrome. Web capture is something that I use almost every day and this built in feature lets you take screenshots quickly without relying on extensions or other software. Smart screen security. This is a great built-in feature that warns you about suspicious websites. Additionally, when you try to download any types of executable files from website and the smart screen feature analyses the download and it will immediately terminate the download if found to be from malicious in nature. Read aloud s the coolest feature on Microsoft edge. It can read aloud any web pages and even pdf files and you can choose the accent of your choice to listen. Password manager is much advanced than Google Chrome, Microsoft edge can suggest you stronger passwords and seamlessly store and sync them This way you don't have to use another password manager software.
Been using it for two years in office and personal computer for almost 2 years now. Haven't come across any Cons worth mentioning.
The main reason for switching from Google Chrome was the added safety and privacy features of the Microsoft Edge.
Sefayet from Sumitomo Mitsui Construction Co LTD
2nd browser to use my personal work.
previously Microsoft Edge was named as Microsoft explorer, every time I used that I have pain in my head. If i have to compare now that with Microsoft Edge, they came long way with success, I love the new EDGE download system, with bookmarking option, it definitely up to the standard now. Through they need to work on the extension area, to compete with other successful browser.
For easy, Day to day browsing Microsoft edge is the best for now. With good response time it could be the no 1 for now. Download manager is quite good for me. They are continuously adding more option to us to feel much better, such as Microsoft Edge now can use as PDF reader. it also consume low RAM , as a result my pc is faster.
Loading time still have some lacking's, need to be more fast. beside they need to work on the extension area. new websites launch extensions to give us good user experiance, they need to take this step to provide friendly environment to us.
want to try new browser for my personal work.
Cristhian Josue from El Punto Lab
Microsoft Edge, a powerful opponent to Google's monopoly
Edge is an attractive optionfor pc's with low resources or for people who wants escape from the Google's monopoly, outside of the prejudices we may have about internet explorer, Edge has reinvented the archaic Microsoft browser, replacing it and adding features that can change our internet browsing.
Microsoft Edge is light, fluid but above all it is a powerful alternative to external browsers to windows, Edge has tools that other browsers didn´t have. An example is the Price Comparison tool, which lets us to get Coupons, give Ratings and reviews, Microsoft Edge's security features, such as SmartScreen, Password Monitor, InPrivate search and Kids Mode, help protect your safety while browsing online.
Microsoft Edge has had an overly aggressive advertising campaign, this can be scaring for the user who only seeks to surf the web, this, joined with the fact of using Bing as the main search engine is unattractive, Edge peculiarities are a risky proposition, as well as leaving us to have a better workflow, this can be stressful for who aren't close to this tools.
Easy Browsing With Microsoft Edge
Besides Google Chrome, I often use Microsoft Edge in my daily life. It is because I am using Microsoft Teams as my class studying. So, when I want to watch the class recording back, I have to use Microsoft Edge as well. There are few features in this application that seems very helpful for me. One of the features is the download button. When I want to download something, I can check how many MB or GB that I need in downloading which is very helpful in preparing enough MB or GB for downloading. More than that, Microsoft Edge only use low RAM which makes my laptop super-fast while browsing. Overall, I enjoy using Microsoft Edge as much as he other browsing apps.
Unlike other browsing apps, Microsoft Edge tend to be more slows. Whenever I open Microsoft Edge, it always takes some times which makes me kind of frustrated. Overall, it is good in using Microsoft Edge and does not have any other important cons to talk about.
Khan Md Mohaiuminul Islam from Sumitomo mitsui construction co ltd
For Now can be used as 2nd browser, they need improve to become 1st choice
Previously, Edge used to be full of bugs and glitches, I was very disappointed that time, But Since then they have improved so much, they provide a good user experience right now, though they need to work more to become no 1, EDGE have advanced download system now, I like this very much. For now, we can easily we EDGE for minor browsers, I think they need to improve their incognito mode.
They associate with Microsoft Bing as their primary Search engine. I loved that they introduce the Download feature in the browser. Recently they are focusing on making a better user experience by reducing loading speed and easier to operate. Bookmarking is better than before, we can easily do bookmarking my essential web pages.
The main issue we face loading issue and reaction time of the browser. Need to make quick change option introduce in browser settings. Previous time EDGE used to be full of bugs and slowing down our work, they continuously improve. Hope that they will improve quite fast.
Need to use some other browser for private browsing, I can do simple work by EDGE.
Hossam from Panda Retail Company
Hossam's Review on Microsoft Edge
I would recommend using Edge & no need to install any other Web Browser, except if you need extra features like imbedded VPN inside the browser itself.
Edge is way much better than its predecessor (Internet Explorer), it doesn't consume much resources and easy to use, and the main advantage is that you don't need to download it, it comes with Windows, so no extra resources are needed, also the flexibility of selecting the default search engine based on your preferred one.
It is almost perfect, except that it is lacking some features which we could see in other developed web browsers such as imbedded VPN.
Reasons for Choosing Microsoft Edge
I'm using it side by side with other web browsers.
Michelle from MSM Shop
The Edge You Need
Microsoft Edge is a great product and is dedicated to being at the forefront on internet browsers.
I love using Microsoft edge because it makes me feel safe when I am browsing. It seems to put security first so I like how important it is that they are dedicated to protecting me while I am online.
The security and private browsing on Edge are great, but sometimes it makes it hard to look up everything I need. The pop-up blocker makes it hard to use certain secure websites. So it can be a little buggy at times.
I always felt safer with Microsoft Edge - they don't watch me search and I can be directed to safe websites.
Juan Sebastián from Freelance
Un browser muy limpio y organizado
Lo usé por un buen tiempo como alternativa a Google Chrome, pero en la actualidad existen muchos otros navegadores que no son convencionales y te aportan mucho más que Edge. La nueva versión del buscador de Microsoft refleja las condiciones de un buen browser.
Las colecciones aportan un sistema intuitivo para el almacenamiento de información y contenido multimedia ¡Me encanta! Me gusta que tengan integrado su propio sistema de extensiones y que lo acompañe con una buena interfaz de usuario, que es personalizable (Modo oscuro, una bendición para mis ojos). La velocidad con la que se hacen los procesos me sorprende.
El consumo de memoria no es tan eficiente en comparación con otros browsers lo que hace insostenible llevar muchas pestañas. Además, por ser un browser alternativo para distintos tipos de usuario, no es fácil de integrar con otros tipos de servicios en la nube. No tiene un buscador predeterminado que destaque, lo que le resta puntos.
Quería empezar a probar nuevos browsers para conocer sus ventajas, y Edge fue uno de los primeros en convencerme debido a la velocidad de respuesta.
Browser that gets better with time
Overall Edge is a great browser that can be a great to-go option and since it comes installed by default on Windows it is a great option.
Edge started out as a bad browser with a replacement to IE but recently with new updates it has become very fast and convenient to use. Edge has all the functionalities needed as well stability which makes it a very useful tool.
Edge is based on chromium and is unable to catch up to its competitors, Edge is still in development and still not very stable, and is prone to glitches and crashes.

Microsoft Edge has been doing wonders
It a wonderful app with amazing features. With the adblocker, I don't need to worry myself over annoying ads anymore.
Having used this app for a very long time, I must agree it's has improved greatly. The UI is just wow! I like the imprivate feature and the adblocker. It works seamlessly. It's a fast browser. It secures your privacy. It's just a wonderful browser. The read aloud feature is awesome.
It causes my phone to overheat, thereby draining my battery very quickly. The technical team should see to this.

Microsoft did it again: The Windows 10 browser for your everyday needs.
Out of all the web browsers I tried in the past, Microsoft Edge stays the most consistent and it runs really fast in my computer. I also recommend it for gaming, if you like video games and you need a browser that will stay working fast, Edge is the one.
The interface is pleasant and it's super easy to use, if you like personalising your internet browser then you have plenty of images to choose. I enjoy this browser mainly for its In Private window feature.
Definitely not the best when it comes to erasing cookies and personal data such as log in passwords, it's not that fast in terms of doing the job real quick. I would say it tends to crash a bit if you have a low functioning PC.

Internet Explorer is back with a bang!
Solve the need of fast, secure, reliable, compact web browser for everyday business
Fast surfing, compact setting, less crash and much lighter consumption / allocation of computer resources like RAM or CPU in comparison with the dominant rivalry C.h.r.o.m.e
default search engine Bing totally not the best limited library of extensions
Avery from Real Love Interracial Fellowship
Edge has been stable for my productivity
Edge has helped me more with my usage of Bing, and it's easy connectivity to the Microsoft login has helped with my productivity. It's much easier to search through Bing with edge. It feels like the connectivity is just as good as Chrome or any other program.
Edge is pretty simple when it comes to internet browsers. It's a MUCH better upgrade compared to the old days of Internet Explorer, so I am thankful of the work that Microsoft put into it to make it better.
Sometimes crashes can take more time than needed, so I've been straying away from certain sites that gives me more instances of crashes. Overall, Edge could be a little better, but it is much better than what IE used to be.
With BING giving me reward points for searches, it kinda drowned out Firefox just a little bit.
Microsoft edge review
I really like the new Microsoft edge. It is much better than internet explorer..
I like the ease of use and some features are better than other browsers.
It's not easy to save bookmarks at some times.
Work reasons
Torikul from NockScript
Microsoft Edge is good but I don't like it much personally because It wasn't enough for me
My overall experience is average but yes, this browser helps me a lot as an optional browser. Sometimes I feel the importance of Microsoft Edge because I often test websites from different browsers. This browser could be a good choice for those who use browsers for small needs. But a professional person or IT-Expert person will not like that browser because this software wasn't able to present itself as perfectly people want nowadays.
I like few things about this browser, using low memory of the CPU is one of them. It runs smoothly on the desktop even a low configuration PC can run it without any problem. I like how this browser manages tabs at the top, it allows me to check a tab preview in a good view. Another good thing is, it loads the web pages and sections on scroll smoothly with a little fade-in animation which is so satisfying. There is some common functionality this browser also has that I liked a lot but those features do not make Microsoft Edge unique, it's available on the other browsers in a more professional way.
The first thing is, I can't imagine that this browser is a different web browser software from Microsoft. When I use Microsoft Edge, It seems like I'm working with my Windows 10 settings. A browser should be unique, beautiful, and it should be developed with a special focus on users' requirements. There is no advanced type functionality on this browser whereas nowadays other browsers are well developed from all sides. User experience and user interface both are not at a satisfaction level as well as I don't feel comfortable using Inspect Element feature of this browser.
Microsoft Edge wasn't able to fulfill all of my needs...
So Far, So Good
I have only recently started using Microsoft Edge and I am sort of impressed. For one thing, it's pretty fast. I Like that I can add personalizations and save stories. However, I think what has impressed me the most is the fact that I can make notes with a highlighter directly on the web page and then share this annotated page with others, via social media apps or e-mail. Now, how cool is this? Also, if I do not have the time to read a webpage at the moment, I can save it and go back to it when I need to. I have also gathered that it is safer than Chrome and Firefox, which is a definite plus for me.
The only drawback with Microsoft Edge to me, is that the Notes tool/feature seems to be better suited for touch screen computers.
Mohd from The OmniJobs
Review : Microsoft Edge
Hey there! I am using Microsoft Edge from more than 6 months and trust me I found best Search Engine in Microsoft only. I use it daily for my whole company work . It's very easy to use and manage.
I would like to inform the R & D Team of Microsoft Edge that kindly improve your bookmark system as it's little bit complicated to understand. Make it as simpler as possible.
Emily from Zo Financial
Microsoft Edge is Elite
My overall experience with Microsoft is very positive. It's a very easy to use and quick system. It is much better to utilize than other browsers I have tried for my current job.
What I like most about Microsoft Edge is that it is superior to any other web browser. For my current job it makes life so much easier and faster. I used to use google and since switching I have noticed it is so much faster. It is easier to search and faster to use. It is also very easy to navigate. When I would search something on google and click on a link it would often take me to another search engine instead of a link to an article or website. I love that Microsoft edge never does that.
What I like least about Microsoft is that it is not the easiest to erase cookies. I also have a problem with Microsoft not saving my passwords on certain websites. Not saving passwords after I click the box to remember it is sometimes frustrating because my job requires fast navigation and having to type my information every-time because it doesn't save is an inconvenience.
Google is a good system, but overall it is a lot slower functionality and a harder to use search engine compared to Microsoft Edge.
Mustafa from Vena Solutions
MS Edge review
MS Edge remains a powerful browser that is compatible across a number of websites. It is useful to have it along with other browsers due to its ability to organize bookmarks and work well overall with the Windows operating system
This browser works well with Windows operating system. The ability to add bookmarks into collections really helps organize. The browser is able to open all websites in the right format and has a good user interface let me see Dorsey Music
The browser is slow as compared to Firefox and Chrome. As it is integrated by default to Bing search the address bar is not as effective as Chrome. Despite being a Microsoft product it does not work as seamlessly as needed with SharePoint
PAUL from OSH
Microsoft Edge is better than Google Chrome, yup I said it!
It is good and getting better.
Microsoft Edge is faster than Chrome, has basically the same features and can use most of the same extensions that you would get for Google Chrome. The fact that you have an option now to move away from Google Chrome is a huge positive.
Microsoft Edge is considered to be a newer version of IE and that is a little unfair. There is a lot of negativity that is kind of justified about the way Microsoft forces users to have Edge on their Windows machines. If they can improve the integration into Intune, this will allow us to deploy policies easier across corporate clients.

Great browser that is easy to use
Microsoft Edge has come a long way. It is far better now than it once had been. I use this particular browser mainly for everything.
I like the overall design and feel that makes it easy to transition from one browser to this one.
Some built-in features that can be helpful can also be annoying and requires some tweaking according to personal preference. A good example are the pop-ups for shopping savings or asking to save some form data.
Miguel from Miguel Aguirre
Underrated Web Browser
Since I built my PC I've been a daily user of Microsoft Edge. I've been using Edge for the last 7 months and I do not consider to switch it. In the time I've been using it, I've noticed that it works almost the same way as other popular web browsers. It's simple to use, has very interesting functions and does not require great hardware to work well even when you demand it. I decided to use it as an experiment and never imagined feeling so satisfied with it, so I keep it as my main browser.
There's only one detail with Microsoft Edge, and that is the lack of variety of extensions. There have been a few occasions where I've wanted to use an extension and Microsoft Edge has no support for it.
Eslam from Freelancer
An amazing browser that is very underrated
Overall I think that Microsoft Edge is one of the best browsers on the market. In my opinion, it has the best pdf reader out of all the browsers.
Microsft Edge is a very simple yet powerful browser. I use it every day for browsing and as a PDF reader and I have not encountered any problems. Microsoft has put a lot of effort into it, and it is much better than internet explorer in many ways that words can't describe. It doesn't consume a lot of RAM even when multiple tabs are open. The UI is also great and simple, and the news feed on the home screen is a nice touch.
Sometimes, it is a bit slower than some of the competitors like chrome. Also, the pop-up blocker makes it hard to use some websites.

Microsoft Edge Performance for Business
Microsoft Edge was a safe and effective choice for our business needs.
Our company began using Microsoft Edge from it's inception and was a seamless addition to using Microsoft 365 in our business setting. Very easy to use.
The download did take a minute or two, but once installed the software greatly increased productivity.

Chrome on Steroids
Chrome used to be a leader in this space but Edge has caught up and surpassed it in performance and usability. Its now my primary browser of choice!
You still can't use the cast technology that is baked into Chrome but I am not sure if that will ever be the case.
Md from Self Employed
One of the fastest browser till now.
My experience was great.
It is a very fast browser. It's very responsive browsing software and also the fastest browser in the history.
It show lots of irrelevant news on my feed (Home Page).
Derek from Grail Insights
Great, but missing some key features
Really broad search results. Easy to use, great interface.
I am used to search results showing Google results, such as Maps. I often find myself opening Chrome just for maps access.
Great browser with all features
Overall Microsoft Edge is a great browser with all feature for day to day use and since it comes preinstalled on windows, it is very convenient to use.
It's latest version is very good as it's very compatible and convenient to use. Compared to it 's competitors the latest version has become just like them. Since it is based on chromium it has a lot of functionality.
Though the software has become good recently it is still unable to catch up it's competitors in terms of usability, compatibility and stability
Tony from Inkdefied88
A review for Windows 10 default internet browser
My experience with Edge was okay overall. It is a good browser in my opinion, just not have what I expected from an internet browser.
I like that it comes with Windows 10 by default when setup a new computer. It provides high security features and does comes with group tab, dark theme and extensions features. It also use less resources than any other internet browser.
Sometimes the software not work as fast and as smooth as I expected it to works. The user interface is a bit overcrowded with information and not easy to understand right away.
Because it is bundled with Windows 10 and I don't have to download and install.
Ebrahim from MUST
Marvelous Improvement
I found that this software were very helpful since it does not make my laptop lag or delay tasks. it seems to be had passed with hug improvement that led to that. also, it tries to understand user needs.
Fast Not consuming RAMs Smart Compatibility with windows
Extensions still needs improvement to be more helpful.
Matthew from BestBuilders
Best web browser for your Microsoft computer.
Great! Almost switched back to chrome when I purchased my new laptop but decided to give it a try. Very happy I did.
This is the fastest browser ive used. The interface is simple. The PDF reader is exceptional!
The browser and platform are great. The only thing is that Bing took some getting used to.
Chrome was malfunctioning with my new laptop. Tried Edge out and quickly discovered it was better with my Microsoft computer.
Ogheneochuko from University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital
Over the years I have been using this software I have come to realize that it has really helped me with a lot of things and it has improved my knowledge about certain things
I like the fact that just by browsing I am entitled to lots of useful information by using this software
Personally there is actually nothing wrong with the software, it works just fine for me without any problems
Better than explorer, but not Chrome yet
It has all the options and functionalities explorer missed, and much faster
The search functionality is using ping, not as good as google

Debe ser mas atractivo
Las pocas veces que la he usado a funcionado bien pero no excelente.
Tiene buena velocidad al momento de realizar las búsquedas, seguro y el Microsoft Bing es bueno con las sugerencias.
Siento que le falta ser mas atractivo al momento de elegir un browser, que sea un poco mas rápido al iniciar la aplicación y en las velocidades de cargas en las paginas web, no es el mas rápido.

Villiger Original Krumme has to be one of the strangest cigars I've ever seen, but it's uniqueness is much of the appeal....and it's surprisingly tasty too. This traditional Culebra - 3 cigars braided into one - is a little difficult to describe. So I'll just defer to some choice phrases from the manufacturer's description: 'plaited by female hands,' 'old Cuban tradition from fine and damp cigars.' That says it all right?
Either way, they're something I'd suggest trying. A rich and ultra-earthy blend with some interesting spice flavors. You can untwist them and enjoy the cigars individually, or try to burn them all together.
NOTE: The packaging below identifies the number of culebras. So, for instance, the pack of 8 contains 8 culebras, but when unraveled equals 24 cigars total.
Krummes are the best and hard to find.
Your prices are the best. You have cigars I have been looking for, for a long time. This is my second buy and I'll be back when I need more.
I was introduced to Villager Krumme in Salzberg, Austria. Glad to find them through CI. Mild, odd shaped. An alternative to the big, fat, cigar preferred by oligarchs, dictators and drug lords.
A pretty good little cigar but pricey. My friends think that their opinion that I am a little weird is confirmed when they see me smoke these.
These were a welcome addition to my humidor. They have a distinct, original flavor that I haven't tasted on many other cigars, and produce a thick, satisfying smoke. They tend to go out quickly if unattended to, however. Make sure to utilize the plastic tip that is inserted in the cigar - if you try to smoke it without the tip, you will end up with a mouth full of loose tobacco! I would purchase this item again, as 2 culebras is really six individual cigars, and for 12 bucks and some change, that is a pretty good deal for the great flavor these Villiger Krummes exhibit.

Q: How can I find out network latency in rest service I have two Java applications deployed on tomcat. For inter application communication I provide jar file of application (Java API) to other application and it becomes a method call which is fast.
Now I am thinking of creating rest service, can it add some extra time. Of course yes but how much in worst case. Keeping in mind applications are on intranet.
How can I measure network latency? which I think will be most time taking part.
Need expert advice/opinion, how can we take design  decisions in such cases?

A: TL;DR latency is unpredicatable in general.
Start with investigating worst case. If REST host goes down, a call will only return after TCP timeout (configurable, defaults can reach 10 minutes).
To prevent this ensure, you have adequate timeouts set on client's side and be ready to handle failures.
Latency also depends on  distance, hardware, software and payload.
Hardware, OS and distance delays can be measured by simple ping command, but web server and TCP connection usually introduce additional drastic delay which sometimes depends on payload too (static resources, for example, are easier to handle).
You can try various techniques to measure latency of mocked web-server, but be aware, that it will change significantly when you introduce your actual business logic.
To answer your question, there are plenty of services out in the web which measure your site's performance, but you will have to use them each time you change business logic.


JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — The Alaska Supreme Court has ordered that portions of an initiative aimed at protecting salmon be stricken as unconstitutional but says the rest of the measure can advance to the ballot.
The court says the problematic provisions would bar the state Fish and Game commissioner from granting a permit to a project that would cause "substantial damage" even if the commissioner or Legislature thinks a project's public benefit would outweigh its effects on fish habitat.
The decision asks a lower court to direct Lt. Gov. Byron Mallott to sever the problematic portions and place the rest of the measure on the ballot.
The initiative has been expected to appear on November's general election ballot.
Justice Daniel Winfree dissented in part, saying he would have gone farther in severing other pieces.

Wisconsin Center Tyler Biadasz Embraces His 'Country Strength'
Efficient inside hands. Impressive grip strength. Heart and soul of the offense.
All those offensive lineman buzz words ring true when talking about Wisconsin center Tyler Biadasz. He grinds, he's battle tested, he's every other football and draft cliché under the sun.
But the best way to describe the Amherst, Wisconsin native is "country strong." Just ask him.
"I do think that is pretty accurate," chuckled Biadasz in an interview this week. "Coming from Amherst, there's a lot of fields around me - I mean I live out in kind of the middle of nowhere. We have a town of 1,000 people."
His high school didn't quite boast the expansive, high tech facilities Biadasz was able to utilize at Wisconsin.
"Going into my freshman year of high school, we went into a weight room that was so small, it had like three squat racks, three bench presses, and a set of dumbbells only up to 110," said Biadasz. "So I developed at an early stage the mentality that it's not about having nice things, it's about what you make of the things you do have."
So the country boy got creative.
"I didn't lift calves for weight room training but I did go to the farm milk cows with my grandpa," chuckled Biadasz. "Throwing hay bales on a mound – I've done that throughout my whole childhood growing up. And in high school in our football practice we actually used tractor tires – we were going through our camp and we would flip them, we would do team camaraderie exercises, like two or three guys at once and we would have these races."
Strength is the cornerstone of any great offensive lineman but growing up in the country taught the Wisconsin native a few Badger and Big Ten football cornerstones.
"You get this grind mentality," explained Biadasz. "Coming from Wisconsin and having that gritty mentality, you develop more of your game every year and I think we build that edge of who are you really about and how much you can grow. And also how much are you willing to put yourself out there. Coming from the Big Ten conference taught me that there is no easy game - you could have the right play, right call, right scheme but you have to go in and earn it."
Biadasz earned all his 41 starts at center. He earned his two-time first-team all-Big Ten honors. And he definitely earned his 2019 Rimmington Trophy, awarded to the nation's top center – the first in program history. But the accomplishment he speaks most fondly of: helping Badger running back Jonathan Taylor finish with 6,174 career rushing yards.
"Just create a hole for Jonathan Taylor – he just needs a little one," joked Biadasz when reminiscing about the Big Ten's premiere rushing attack.
As the 6-foot-4, 314-pound NFL Draft prospect prepares for the next phase of his football career during these uncertain times he brings that "make the best of it" country mentality with him.
"I'm going into an interview with the same energy I go into everything with because that's my first impression, that's my only impression," shared Biadasz. "I'm not going to have two days with the team, those visits you usually have. And you are not doing any workouts with them either so you talk about your film, you really engage and you really put yourself out there and you try and maximize every interview that you have."
He is likely to virtually impress quite a few teams, sparking interest from organizations that need a tough, smart offensive lineman like the Broncos, the Dolphins or even the Falcons. And while Biadasz is excited he is staying centered.
"The draft is the draft, I have no control over it but I do have control over the interviews I have – controlling the controllables and remembering the uncontrollable, those aren't your fight," concluded Biadasz.
Spoken like a true leader. Biadasz will watch the draft at home in Amherst with his mom, dad and brother.
