I'm not so sure it's that clear. (I'm not a lawyer) If you can lawfully download a phone image over the internet while in the country and you can lawfully enter the country with no or limited digital information on your perso

I hadn't heard about Amazon using Stripe before. Here's an article from 2017 talking about it: https://www.geekwire.com/2017/amazon-quietly-starts-using-st...

Basically yeah. You probably aren't gonna be adding rebasing functionality to your supply chain git repo. But again, that's why I mentioned a blockchain in the true sense, as a chain of blocks containing a hash of previous blocks,

I think there are two key points to making such a system work: 1. Packaging it in such a way that it's easy to use for non-technical users. 2. There still has to be a mechanism for establishing trust in the public keys registered in su

I agree that it's a buzzword, but at least intuitively, a signed blockchain (in the true sense that each block contains a hash of the previous block) does seem to confer some additional security over a plain database. A plain database

Sounds more like a UI bug/oversight than intentional deception. Google Maps UI has a feature to display your set home address, once you turn off tracking or whatever it no longer has access to that home address in its UI so the default

The extent the common person (might) know about cookies is that sometimes it's helpful to clear them to speed up your computer and/or as part of other magical rituals.

I'm curious what that does to discourse too. If there's no advertising allowed and users bid on one post per minute, what's to stop someone with deep pockets from dominating the system? I do think bidding to post and rate-lim

Google went to production with Pentium desktops on shelves. IIRC their original hardware plan was based around commodity hardware and getting the most performance per dollar since they built the crawler to be distributed pretty early on. Po

That's fair but you can easily develop for the majority Chrome marketshare by focusing on designing and building your applications on top of the actual web standards instead of Chrome's specific implementations. Probably 95% of th

The user isn't the problem, the developer is. If you're developing against Chrome/Chromium, particularly "works in Chrome" instead of developing against the published Web standards, you're support Google &

You still didn't really answer what you think Mozilla should be doing with that money. (Besides vaguely hinting that they don't target power users anymore which suggests you're bitter about the switch to web extensions)

You can force cast a boolean by doing if(!!value == true) {}, but at that point you might as well just say if(value)

Let's be honest though, if someone's copy-pasting from Stack Exchange, they're probably not reading or understanding the whole thing they're copying either. My rule in code reviews is if you're basing/copying s

Firebase seems to be pretty integrated with Google's GCP strategy, as well as Android push notifications with FCM. Not saying concern over Google's commitment to various tools is unfounded, but it seems that generally things that

I believe the running containers share the host's kernel, so maybe if you were doing certain low level kernel level stuff, maybe the version of the kernel matching would matter?

Is that similar to the functionality provided by Twist from Doist? It's not email based but it seems to be a hybrid of Email and Slack. I've only messed with it a few times and never with Google Wave, but it sounds similar to what

It's not really supported, but you can run GUI programs with some amount of success by setting up X forwarding. Some programs work better than others, but I probably wouldn't want to run my code editor in it.

Which Elixir extension are you using for VS Code? Are you on Windows, Linux or Mac? I've had the best luck with the ElixirLS extension on Linux but there are still a few weird things here or there.

We'll have to agree to disagree about Django. I think Django and Rails both offer good developer productivity/velocity, they just make different tradeoffs. Django tends to be more explicit, which might lead to a slightly higher le

> Root of all evil is state. That's such a funny thing to say. You'd be hard pressed to have a program without state. Every program is made up of a combination of 3? components: logic, data(state), and time. The thing that diff

You might know Python but it sounds like you don't know Django very well. Django does have built in JSON support[1]. There's also Django Rest Framework[2], which while not built into the core, is well supported and hardly a burden

If it just renewed and this changes breaks your use case you can probably request a refund since your system is no longer supported.

Everyone being aware of an issue without it ever being raised or acknowledged is equally demotivating and results in the same attitude.

That was my thought too. If it's an unnecessary mental load (for developers or managers) to find out about the tasks currently being worked on and what they are, then the problem is with your work/task tracking system, not with yo
