I purposefully didn't include details around this as I didn't want to exclude any options or drive the discussion toward US politics. I can say my #1 goal is long term security and stability for her. That might be accomplished by

Thank you, I will check that out. I asked here because I figured I wasn't the only one on this forum that might want to know their options, and that the prevalence of STEM backgrounds and world experiences on here would offer some uniq

Man, has any game been implemented more times than Tetris? It was always one of those things I wanted to do and finally got around to hacking together a javascript version of it a few years ago: http://cortexture.net/tetris

Doesn't a drive thru also hand you a disposable bag filled with a bunch of other stuff that's about to become trash- napkins, wrappers, straws, etc...? Just toss it in there dude, try not to let it bother you.

Hi all, thanks for checking it out. I like to mess with OpenGL and Three.js in my sparetime, 9 - 5 I'm usually doing web dev. Posting this more for the visualizer but I would love feedback on anything.

I feel like this is solvable using binary to assign which bottles to which prisoners, but only if there were 16 bottles. For example, bottle 11 dec = 1011 bin. So bottle 11 would be tasted by prisoners 1, 3, and 4. Then if 1, 3, and 4 di

This should be (and is currently) downvoted but it did make me look up DDG's API.

Hi HN- I wrote this several months back just for fun, trying to emulate the gameplay of the 1989 Gameboy version as much as possible (with the exception of instant drop and the ghost block). Enjoy!

TY, I'll update the readme.md when I get home tonight. And you are right, it was initially marked as "Won't Fix" because it was not immediately reproducible, but further research yielded it being discovered as an "a

The dev reached out to me privately, I wouldn't infer anything based on the responses here.

Yes, that's why I feel like this is more significant than a simple crash at first glance- no one would purposefully craft a 256+ unchecked character URL, unless they are being malicious, in which case they absolutely will craft a 256+

Hah, that click was definitely my karma for today, ty. But the reason I posted this is because it doesn't rely on Javascript to eat up memory- anyone can post a malformed/long link to a web forum and crash the thread/site for

I did file a Chromium bug last week, #472347. I filed under security (as I was unsure) so it's not public, but it was pretty much immediately marked as 'Won't Fix'. Hence the repo ;)

Suggestion from a reply to my bug report (filed under security so it's non-public) points to a dupe of: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=472899 and fixed in: https://chromiu

Yup, it's not "serious", but could be used to DOS I believe.

Could be. My concern is: 1) Most people don't have SSL enabled for most (if any) sites that are optional. 2) Most normal users are using the standard build for MacOS/Win, not the dev channel, and not Linux. 3) This requires no XS
