I agree, but I feel it's justified using Electron in this case, because Markdown can be combined with any HTML. So when you need a rendering engine, you might as well use Chromium's from Electron.

Great advertisement. If they like the company's service alive, they are more likely to use them when they are dead.

I disagree. Unless the maintainer refuses to accept pull request adding new feature/fixing the issue, there is nothing wrong about working primary on things that concern the maintainer. Maintainer is not some sort of slave who must rus

In my opinion advertising browser on facebook is absolutely useless. How many users do you think see an advert and install browser when they current one is for all their intents and purposes same. Mozilla needs to aim at technical people, w

I'm surprised that they don't try to set up few dozens photo-traps in the area, in Europe it works quite well for proving re-emergence of wolves in areas where they were not seen for hundred years.

Nice. If I can suggest a cosmetic improvement, you list number of possible paths, it would be cool to see how many paths algorithm tried so far until it finishes (and how many paths it tried in total).

I don't understand business much but it looks it was really nice of them to return the money to investors. They could just let the investors bear the brunt of their bad investment without giving a damn.

Privacy minded people I know disable safebrowsing even when it's provided by Google, and although Google dropped its "Don't be evil" long time ago, it is still more trustworthy than Tencent backed by Chinese government.

I thought the same. Look at Banana Industry the disease first wiped Gros Michel and now seriously threatens Cavendish. That wouldn't be such problem if only one cultivar wasn't so widespread.

I always thought that high IQ is correlated with high anxiety, because the smarter a person is, the better he can imagine all possible things to go wrong. On the other end of spectrum are people with IQ comparable to children, who presumabl

This sounds quite damning and makes me reconsider Stallman's character. Nevertheless it's an account of only one party, which has to be also considered. Dunno why people who were against RMS didn't try to argument with this i

36 hours a week from 8am to 6pm means that you have approximately 2 hours between lectures each day to do your assignments. Sure, it isn't suited to having part time job or much free time, but from my experience it sounds like pretty n

As for PDF accessibility, it heavily depends on used language. In English it's usually ok, but I saw countless PDFs (some of them written in TeX) in other languages that render ok, but the text actually consists of letters followed by

Actually there are ways to install software on many ereaders. About 10 years ago I used PRS+ on Sony's PRS-500. Nowadays Sony's ereaders are pretty much dead, but there is alternative software for Kindle, Kobo and others. By quick

I don't think so, but there is inbuilt calibre-server which should suffice for most of your needs and apparently it was improved in last version. There is also calibre-web[0] project. And on Calibre's wikipedia page it lists quite

So let me see if I get your definition of assault right: It doesn't depend at all on alleged attacker's intentions or actions, it doesn't depend on alleged victim's actions, only thing that matters is if the alleged vict
