Yes that is a great of example of reading something on the internet and believing it completely? You just linked me to a Stackoverflow post about a theory, which turns out to just be completely wrong, while managing to include a few valid f

Sorry, "apparently" shadows do not move faster than light. Since they are... well... defined by light... I am curious though, as to where you got such a strong notion that shadows can move faster than light...

From my perspective of American warfare - shooting a $1 million dollar missile at every $100 drone is how they keep the war going :)

You're being down voted because in this case customers are obviously the product. Being sold to Facebook.

Seems quite short sighted to assume space manufacturing processes would not improve - or we would not want to improve them. Cold weld it in space, it's not that difficult with some engineering. Space X?

For small range (few km) you can just utilise LoraWAN for free communication.

Similar to how GPT-3 can be applied not only to create Text, but also fill in missing pieces of Images (ie. complete the missing half of a face). Would the logical next step, use GPT-3 to create a 3D world? :)

It's actually quite easy to strip the DRM on Audible using ffmpeg - which I do to keep an archive of all my purchases. There's a script on github to get the encryption key for your account by letting it sign in for you. Then from

If your doing Android Development with the ARM emulator, then its crazy slow. However, if you use the x86 emulator - then you get native speed. Xcode/iOS's emulator is actually x86 - which is why it seems faster than Android'

They go over the effects of compression - which they say only degrades the protection - but at the same time also degrades the identification accuracy of the AI model. So if your crappy 6 megapixel camera cannot take a clear shot of the clo

They are lucky in this case because compression does defeat the cloak to some degree— However, compression at those levels also defeats the ability of Facebook to accurate identify you.

What's wrong with personal projects on a Free private Github repo? (they offer those now). Previously I would just put my pet projects on Bitbucket because they offered free private repos.

As an Android developer during the first G1 era, I feel that Google was really taking advantage of the well established Java developer base. Having developers already understand Java, was a huge thing for Android when it first came out. So

This would be for the QtQuick backend. The QTWebView is a separate plugin component with its own set of dependencies. You wouldn't want to do that anyways, much more effecient to just communicate from Qt to Javascript webviews (but I&#

Newer versions (since around 2013) of webkit and gecko limit a:visited style changes to just colour or background colour. So the getComputedStyle() trick doesn't work anymore. Is that what your referring to?

Very interesting! Great timing for myself, as I just pulled the Chez github repo just last night— a whopping 900mb btw! Chez became a point of interest to me after learning about it's solid performance (can even do whole program optim

A few years back the Graal compiler from Oracle caught my attention as it was able to accelerate ruby code on the JVM with incredible results. However it was not able to support any real world code / frameworks— ie. Rails. (At the tim

I've been a pretty big fan of CMUS and CLI based based audio playback for a long time.. This is absolutely amazing— much more polished than the alternatives—it feels like christmas. Now I can't wait to contribute a pull request :)

The fact that there is a "Won't do list" stating that functions won't be supported... I don't think this is anything more than a toy to play with rust.

While the DOM may always be slow, faster JS (ie. wasm) can provide faster calculations in pure javascript land and better efficiency (better memory management, similar to c++/native stacks). This is useful for optimizing DOM usage, suc

What you said is true, however... I am referring to the initial offering of Native Client for inclusion into FireFox. Since this did not happen, Native client did not see the uptake it needed— and the team was destaffed. Since it was a work

Project Mortar is different in the fact that it is PDFium and Adobe Flash being allowed via Pepper API — basically it's for sandboxing those current native plugins. This would not be a public web use case. PNaCl vs WebAssembly was all

Looks like Mozilla won this fight. When Mozilla didn't accept PNaCl and Pepper API proposed by Google, Mozilla went down the ASM path which now led us to Web Assembly being the general way forward.

Will be interesting to see how they handle duty & customs. Do they rely on your own provided Total Value or if the stranger/host is responsible for opening your package and inspecting it...

When working with Docker, it is possible to get down to the metal as you mentioned. Usually by bypassing the docker networking and using Host only network, but then you lose a lot of the benefits of containers in the first place. For exampl

Indeed, it will be interesting to see what Google can think up compared to the other big researchers. Though I wonder if the goals are slightly different, as Google is focusing on "Cloud Storage", rather than single hard performan
