Indeed, I'm talking about DisplayLink. I wish I could plug my 2 screens and the ethernet cable directly into the macbook. However, since Apple decided 2 USB-C port is enough, I'm left with a pretty crappy dock that don't even

We bought 3 of these new MacBooks where I work. There is literally tons of issues, way too much to list them all in a single post. The biggest of all being the drivers for external displays over USB being glitchy and greedy as hell. While s

Considering the complete failure it was, it would have taken tremendous amount of internal politics, and/or really poor product management, to not amend the "trending news" feature. The surprising thing, for me, is the amount

I wonder, would it be possible to ship sensible devices through another medium (fedex?) instead of taking them through border security? Sure it would be expensive, but at least you don't get confiscated $2k worth of electronics becaus

Oversaturated and desensitized, yes, but too few non-technical people are bothered enough to install an ad blocker. This is an issue because the biggest security threats, today, come from ad-network-delivered-junk. It has become so much of

Thank you for using proper units in your spreadsheet :)

Well, you should move out of the country. Here, in France, we have Ticketmaster, but also Fnac Spectacles, Digitick and many others. It's less awful.

As a healer, I love running donjons with good DPS. I often come and go, sponge their stress, and unfreeze them when they're stuck. In exchange, they sometimes review some of my pull requests and give options/advices when I need th

Thank you for the details! After all, if I can manage to fit around 6 million points into a single r4.large and get a decent response time when clustering them, I can't see why I shouldn't try something with it as a secondary data

Neat! Does someone already used it in production? I'm wondering if it could be useful to replace a medium sized postgres database. I'm trying to replace some clustering currently done with Elasticsearch with postgis, but it's

Yup. Same if you visit someone's page, if you're not friends, both of you'll get suggestions. It's annoying when you repetitively missclicked on an homonym. Some people working there are too proud of these features to re

Listening to Spotify with a bluetooth headset is by far my biggest drain on the 5X (~40% per hour). I've come to use the jack cable more and more, and now it's okay[0]. Luckily, I'm not an iPhone 7 user. [0] "okay"

Interesting. Is there a way to do something like this in Python?

You still have to handle cases where the server state has been updated (possibly via another medium, event, ...) and when the user's internet comes back it's not a matter of pushing clients' commands anymore. Instead you have

If not buying the new MBP is scary enough for Apple to make them really work on their laptops, I will stay a bit longer on my 2013 MBP. What's reassuring is that we need a Mac to work/compile iOS apps. Until they port the toolchai

Is it really necessary though? I've been using bitbucket at work, and their UI is the worst . I mean, you can't even close a PR after a rebase. Yes, it's seriously this _BAD_. So, we're just using cli tools and gui clie

I believe gitlab's UI has gotten better lastly. Nevertheless, if 99% of the value provided by github comes from their interface, should we remember how much time they needed to implement the "+1" counters on messages?

We'll just move the code to gitlab. Git allow us to do it almost painlessly (well, with a missing issue backlog). It's not a big deal.

I used MongoDB in the past too. Now, I'm using Elasticsearch as a document store. Aggregations are good, and you can do some very advanced stuff with it (geographic clustering, scan left, range and exact match, range buckets, histogram

As mentioned above, you can explicitly specify cities and locations in multiple ways. Chances are, it uses the GMap api (or similar), so you can input pretty much anything resembling a location description. Not sure there is something to fi
