In the article it's said that's explicitly part of the idea - it's supposed to be dangerous.

Is it really a choice though? I imagine most people would feel a fairly strong obligation to watch the video if they were told it was recorded as, say, a birthday present for them. The temptation would be very strong at least, and difficult

Multi-stage JITs are indeed fascinating and give some nice wins, but as a "user" (that is, a developer) I find them frustrating at times because they make it more difficult to reason about the performance and behaviour of my code.

You're right that the page linked in OP needs improvement. The phrase to focus on is this: > io.js is an npm compatible platform originally based on node.js It's not a library, it's a platform that's based on node.js.

"targeted" seems to be exactly the wrong word to use here, and "going after" decidedly not what is happening which is precisely the problem here - porn companies (or their representatives) are just indiscriminately firin

Looks cool, but it's not clear to me how it's better than just browsing Netflix. I clicked on "comedies" and Black Mirror came up, which is not quite what I had in mind...along with Postcards from Buster, which is a chil

As I said many hours before your comment; these solutions are clunky and limited compared to what's available to me on linux...

I'm convinced there is a real productivity loss due to OSX's limited notifications system. On OSX you get a tiny little bubble in the upper right from your chat program and if you miss it, too bad. I've seen people resorting

Study the history of other cults, such as Mormonism. Not how the "witnesses" changed their beliefs and how they talked about what happened over time. Even though some of them came to distrust Joseph Smith or consider him on a wron

As a Philly native whenever I head up to NYC one of the things that always strikes me is how much better the cab experience is - which should tell you something. The setup we have now is just bad all around. It's not good for the drive

I remember there was a time period not too long ago when the calendar lined up* with the one from like 1989 or 1992 something like that and 2600 started releasing a bunch of their editors old radio shows from that year as a weekly podcast -

Yes, I experienced this as well. The way the human brain works is crazy. You take the very very strong expectation of reading "spellcheck", and then you swap out a "p" for something that looks a lot like an upside-down &

Wouldn't something like a Sweet.js macro be better for this? Just have it output a string with '\n\' at the end of lines, or using Array.join() or whatever you like.

Employment law only covers so much. For one, people are still discriminated against on the basis of their belonging to a protected class - it just can't be done overtly. For another the laws don't cover everything. I appreciate th
