   What about CSS extensions like .webkit? Same thing really. AFAIK the standard way to do browser-detection is to use the user-agent string, which your browser sends with every request it makes (but can be overridden) anyway, so them programm

   I visited it on Firefox mobile and it correctly detected that I didn't have adblock (as I tend to only read HN and technical blogs on my phone), but the link send me to uBlock Origin's Github page. While uBlock is a nice blocker,

   Thinking about it, I'd say the second one is better. I think it parse better in my mind as to what is meant. However I also always comment nested logic chains with their intent in plain language. I have made bugs in going from intent-&

   But I have to admit if you ever actually do that, you have failed to fundamentally understand how your code is executed I would say I have a pretty good understanding of how C & my code in general works, I'm currently trying to c

   If you don't have braces like in Python, then you always have the same visual feedback don't you? If you were to add braces to Python and auto-indent you'd end up with the same look as you would with python with only whitespa

   Lack for jumping to the end of the current indent block is a missing-feature/bug in vi then. There is nothing technologically harder about finding the end of a block based on indentation than based on braces.

   Rust does something similar. It doesn't allow for brace-less clauses and it also bitches and moans at you about 'miss-using' camelCase, snake_case, etc. Which is great because it means that by default all project will follow

   I am not, nor have I ever been, a big fan of Apple. (apart from all the usuall complaints, I am one of those freaks who just doesn't like Apple's interface & design). But this is a step in the right direction. Would it be bett

    Well, again, involuntary commitment for mental afflictions is a thing. So it has surely been a thing in the 20th and 21st century. Of course, you don't get commited on basis of a diagnosis alone (AFAIK), but I would expect a similar c

    SPIR-V will be a huge boon for everyone and everything I hope, especially given the LLVM support (Haskell or Rust compilers anyone?). But it only augments the compiler step (AFAIK). I've had plenty of bugs in the host-side code before.

    I'm really excited to play with it as a hobby developer. Simply because I like doing low-level programming/optimizing for the fun of it. And I'm currently working on my Msc. in computational science (and possibly a PhD. after

    I have (unfortunately) no experience with this. But have you tried getting 2 larger mattresses (or 3 regular sized ones) and placing them down at a 90-degree angle (crease perpendicular to your body)? Further, using a bed with tight-fitti

    Your source makes the supports the claims you make, but it itself does not source (some of it more grievous) claims. I'm willing to accept that the claims of them suing various people. But I wouldn't call these cases frivolous per

    True, but those would most likely scale (but not perfectly) with the consumer price. Higher tariffs and transportation costs for example.

    Note also that Norway is, in general, an insanely expensive country so $60 gets you less than it would in most countries.

    I often write small bits in C because it's simply fun. And I tend to get bogged down over-abstracting when I'm working in something more modern. The simplicity of C is a boon, allowing me to focus on one small problem and easilly

    if scale is a vector say [1, 2, 3] then x+scale = [1+x, 2+x, 3+x], and in Matlab [ [1,2,3], 4] = [1, 2, 3, 4]. I agree with all you said mind you, and could rant even more about Matlab, just giving a possible explanation for how Matlab pars
