Isn't the "charging network" a thing that shouldn't be vendor locked? Imagine if every petrol pump was tied to specific makes of cars? Any current vendor lock-in of charging is surely at risk at being legislated away, by

Another example is running SQL commands directly against a live database, which is frequently given as advice of something that should never be done. So why should I get excited about the ability to live edit when it's held up as bad p

I miss a time when people read articles before commenting on them. Just skimming the introduction could have told you that the title is not a reflection of an argument forwarded by the article.

The author also equates "late nights" with hard work in point (2) which is a dangerous malpractice in itself.

How long can nuclear weapons be kept without being used? We are as close as ever to nuclear war according to the doomsday clock, just two minutes to midnight.

My take (speculation): Eschewing ICANN would likely not be freedom in any sense, any replacement would not be the work of open and trustless bodies, for any serious replacement would have to come from a swift coup by google, cloudflare and

It's easier than ever to rent your own servers, it's harder than ever to run your own servers. There was a time when you could serve anything from a home ISP connection.

[OT] It's clearly a slow news day today but what's with almost all the submissions today being very content-lite? Very little actual news or explanation, just links to wikis or other content without any context. Perhaps it's

A calendar? Yes. I'm surprised they could develop it as quickly as a year in fact. Calendars are difficult, there is a lot of hidden complexity in the way that users use calendars. They are iceberg products, they look simple from the o

I was wondering why there was any need to move the \ character but then I looked up where it is in the US layout and it seems bizarre. The UK layout has an advantage, it's to the left of the Z and is easy to type. The UK layout has a w

Worse, everything.anything is now treated as a domain, leading to accidentally trying to browse when watching to search for dot separated programming terms such as libraries.

But sharing salary information is still heresy, it's attempted in secret across opaque unverifiable websites that companies themselves like to game.

Perhaps you could edit for clarity, as you seem to be suggesting that the Sun is the center of the universe. As far as I know, that was only an accepted point of view for a few hundred years.

If Google didn't own AMP then I might be less critical of this change. But they do, and I bet they don't rate any AMP pages served from the Google cache as slow. They're determined to make AMP the de-facto way of publishing c

You're implying a single exchange moving the market needs cash to move it. If the ecosystem has decided one exchange is the lead price, then they manipulate the price without needing the underlying assets. Furthermore, bitcoin is one o

It's almost a shame the idea of having a sitemap.xml which the browser could parse and provide native navigation for never took off. Of course it didn't because native controls are the first thing any designer changes because nati

I think it's fair to say that, "Javascript's packaging is as bad as in C". While ES6 modules make minor improvements in syntax, the entire npm ecosystem relies on commonjs resolutions which aren't that far under the
