The question is how often is that necessary? Once again the point goes back to the article title. You are not Google. Unless your product is actually large, you probably don't need all of that and even if you do, you can probably just

For the rare languages that support invariants (or has a library that implements invariants) you would write it as code rather than a comment and the compiler will compile time error if the compiled code is capable of violating the invarian

Now that you have dropped the barrier, what requirements are you setting for the device? What if its damaged? How damaged is too damaged? Should they accept damaged devices in exchange for other damaged devices?

Some of them do have legitimate uses, like chat apps (messages.android.com for example). Otherwise though I do agree that they are a fairly bad idea.

At least when it comes to pirates in the anime scene, people are really astonishingly picky about encoding quality.

While imo the moon is probably a better immediate target for approaching space fairing status, I think Mars does provide useful opportunities. I think on the architectural & engineering side developing structures for Mars would provide

Block unknown callers is a whitelist though. It's literally "block everyone not in my contact list".

Considering that Gates has publicly said that he wants the government to tax him more(He said it most recently during the AMA not to long ago) I would disagree.

I'd recommend suggesting that they whitelist /preview as that is a view only mode that allows you to access external docs without leaking data to the world.

They don't but most competition does lower prices which is his point.

While it is fair that some of the plugins are problematic, in general the plugin space is fairly easy to traverse. Most plugins take at most 2 steps to install (add to .vimrc, run update command) when using a plugin manager. Those that have

I agree that the split was for a dumb reason (however it was inevitable with the prior issues) but that's why I listed both sites. Besides that though, communities split all the time and often for dumb reasons. Also, on your comment th

That type of post is rather uncommon in my experience on these particular boards. Those types of posts are heavily self moderated and shut down by the community unless they are on /hum/ (The emotion/feels board). I'd giv

I think the point of the article was to spook the non tech crowd into moving away from SMS based 2FA. Obviously the tech crowd has known for a long time but most other people are oblivious to all of this.

Nowadays the Computer Engineering degree lets those of us who were torn between EE and CS get both. At least at Virginia Tech, CpE(Computer Engineering) easily outstrips CS and teaches the basics of CS and EE fundamentals as well as practic

Ya you're right. I should have used something more light weight like Atom.

You could easily argue the opposite as well. Developers don't need an IDE, a SQL server, an HTTP server, etc running on their device at all. The choice is to use a bloated IDE that most people only use a small fraction of the features

Never have I needed to either however I almost always see a way to use some common cryptocurrency whenever I decide to pay for something or make a donation. In that sense I think it has taken off. You don't have to use it for anything

I find makefiles are an excellent universal interface for other build tools. If I am downloading some sourcecode off the internet I'd much prefer to be able to just type make or make build and be done with it rather than sifting throug

The issue with your suggestion is that it dis-incentivises work which is one of the problems UBI tries to solve about welfare systems. Currently the issue is "why would I work more than X amount if that means that I make less than if I

Compared to PoW almost every PoS protocol is only going to marginally differ wrt power usage. As for other metrics my bet's on Cardano but right now it's anyone's game.

To chime in here real quick I don't have much experience with openCASCADE as an editor but it has a fairly decent API for creating and manipulating CAD files. It's LGPL and runs on Win/Mac/Linux so its got that going for

The problem is that l'appel du vide does not just apply to jumping off a cliff. It tends to pop up in situations where somebody could take a very simple yet extremely dangerous or guaranteed life-ending action. The other common case of
