Autonomous cars drive better in traffic though, since they're not as easily scared by a brake light or caught off guard. I read some research that said that if we'd replace 10% of the cars on high traffic highways with autonomousl

People are happy Sublime is still alive. It's still one of the best editors out there, and with recent updates it's been getting a lot better at a pretty fast pace.

A lot of Slack's high (background) CPU usage is caused by GIFs, in my experience. Just did a quick check on my quadcore MBP, having Slack fullscreen out-of-view with nothing animated in view gives it a CPU usage of 0,1% with spikes up

Telenet in Belgium has a complete IPv6 dualstack rollout on DOCSIS, so it's definitely possible. They've had it for quite some time now, and they're the reason why Belgium is near 50% Google traffic over IPv6. It really just

What bothers me is that once you rated something you can't unrate it, or see what the public rating is.

I sometimes go a whole night without sleep when I'm nervous about something important. I function much better on no sleep than on less than 5 hours of sleep (for one night only that is). What I've noticed is that without sleep, so

It usually doesn't depend on the model but on the hardware level. Tesla's Model S has had major updates at a pretty high rate, and in 2016 Tesla introduced a new generation of autopilot hardware (more / better sensors). I sus

Chrome's audio detection is quite smart if I'm not mistaken. A tiny amount of sound is usually seen as 'silent' too, since it'd be practically inaudible.

Yep, this. As a Flemish Belgian (Dutch is my first language) it's a bit annoying that Netflix in general doesn't publish anything in Belgium if there are not at least Dutch or French subtitles available. It's a good thing the

Thankfully, nobody stores full fingerprints, just derivations (sort of like a hash). And, when those are stored, they are so far always stored in secure hardware elements. The data is never accessible from within the OS, and never uploaded

Probably, but transporting and storing energy are two things that are still very expensive and bad for efficiency. With few hours of daylight in winter times you simply don't generate enough electricity to cope with the demand. It'

In Belgium we're up to 49.5% of Google traffic over IPv6, which is pretty impressive. All major ISP's have IPv6 enabled in a dual-stack setup right now. This works because almost all of them provide an all-in-one modem/router

I'm not sure about that. DxO rates Sony's very highly, and they're by far the most objective of all the camera ratings. Sony gets a lot of hate online from people comparing full-resolution pictures at 100%. Sony has been usin

That's just it. If all your developers are familiar with at least the basics of React and Webpack, you aren't adding any complexity. Once you know how things work, a simple Webpack configuration with Babel and 2 presets isn't

document.write can and should be avoided whenever you're writing new code. So while it'd probably still work, you should really look at a modern/async way to do the same.

If X is millions (or even billions), maybe, but you shouldn't. Just use one of the real password algorithms. Never ever roll your own hashing system assuming it's secure enough. It won't be.
