The HashSet would be the owner of the IP address type. Your function would call the "take" method of the HashSet to take ownership of the IP address. Now the IP address cannot go back into the HashSet unless you give ownership bac

If you're using React.useCallback to avoid triggering further hooks down the line, then you're using it wrong. Since React.useCallback is ostensibly just React.useMemo wrapped around a function, this note in the documentation is j

I have a few reason why I almost exclusively shop online at Amazon. I try to trust as few companies as possible with my credit card details. Amazon having nearly anything I need makes this easier and convenient. I prefer the convenience of

There's nothing wrong with hoping a freely licensed open source competitor will come along and lower the cost of developing in the space. PyQT are free to extract fees from the ecosystem as long as they can, just as some open source de

For me it's not that Google is more trustworthy, but that their influence and abuse of monopoly position doesn't affect me as much. As a developer I'm well aware of my options for search and operating systems. I can choose no

They should also add a toggle that prevents the client from retransmission to unknown keys without human approval.

Then don't use a messenger that promises end-to-end encryption. Client side encryption is all about ensuring only clients that hold private keys can read messages delivered to them.

Thibault simply wants to deliver the best online chess experience. Period. It's purely donation driven and he pulls a small salary from whatever's leftover after buying enough servers to keep the site up.

Yeah, that survey was incredibly lackluster. Also felt some of the questions were pretty leading. Questions like implying online voting would lead to higher electoral costs or that a more mixed representation in the house would immediately

I wonder how much of this is due to the idea: 1) non-technical users need to be able to use our software. How much code today is about preventing users from doing something they should know better? 2) we're less and less able to say &q

That, and we have bosses who don't believe us that a single string for first and last name won't work for everyone.

And build it for multiple platforms. Unless you only care about one.

Arguably, the only reason you have to worry about the lawsuits is because of stupid IP laws in the first place though.

As soon as their content hits my client though, they don't have any right to control what my client does with it.

My bigger issue that two clients cannot be listening to music at the same time, even if you're a paying member. I'll often forget to stop streaming the music at work and start listening to it on the bus on the way home. My worksta

Something tells me we'd see a direct correlation between the amount of lobbying and the amount of legal backing your "product" needs in order to have value (copyright protection, patents, brand trademarks, etc).

Also no way to hide what you buy from your family, friends, co-workers, employer, future employers, etc. No way to hide what your company spends its money on from its competitors. No financial privacy at all for anyone doesn't sound li

Guild Wars focused on your synergy with your party. The content got harder but your character stats didn't improve. You got a few new skills at your disposal (and eventually 1 elite skill) but mostly it was about understanding the game

I use NoScript as well (and I wish more people would) but to be fair I doubt the users who were part of the botnet even noticed it at all. It's only github who would've benefited from these users running NoScript.

Even on more modern Pokemon systems (nintendo DS) you could upload a pokemon to the cloud servers and watch the network traffic lights on your router. Shut off your DS as soon as your pokemon had been uploaded and when you start up your gam

Yes, the other author has the ability to choose to not open source their code. But they absolutely do not have the choice to not abide by whatever license was applied to the libraries and original works they are building from. The freedom

It's pretty simple choice really. If your goal is simply to get your code used by other people and corporations, under virtually no restriction with what they do with it, then the GPL is not a good choice. If your goal is to let others

This is completely wrong. Purchasing a product that contains code licensed under the BSD license does not ensure you get access to the source (unmodified or otherwise). It is the biggest difference between the GPL and BSD license. All the B

How exactly is the unresolved tension keeping things in check? The untested nature of how far the GPL can hold up in court is exactly why we see violations of the GPL so flagrantly. It's exactly why violators of the GPL are willing to

Is the score formula correct? sum(stars) + (1.0 - 1.0/count(repositories)) So if I have 3000 stars and 10 repositories, you give me a score of 3000.9? Shouldn't it be multiplied?
