If you are wondering - The detail of this drafting legislation is found in a PDF that this article links to. It's a long read!

Totally agree. I've been using Django since 0.96 and it's is so mature now. Earlier they introduced so many new features... but it's now a very mature framework that doesn't really need any new features.

Yeah, perhaps they just need to swap out the globe for new objects?

Oh my where do I begin -- Yarn (to me) appears to be faster, and breaks less (if ever). With NPM I kept finding things not working, and having to delete node_modules and re-installing. Yarn just works, and I haven't even considered u

This is my mates app. He spent days trying to investigating how he could be violation of their terms and has not been able to get a specific reason from Google. It appears to me that this must be a "false-positive" for a harmfu

While firebase has an expensive first tier, Firestore bills more for what you use, like AWS does.

1Password user here. I only use the manual sync option. And I use Resillo Sync to kept all my devices in sync... Which means, most of the time, it's only syncing on my local network. Works great, and was a one off cost, not subscriptio

I wonder if there is a use-case for a simplified lightweight edition of Electron that uses the system webviews instead of Chromium. Obviously this would be much less capable, require cross platform testing, and limit node usage. But for a p

How does this handle garage collection? I believe Webassembly doesn't yet support GC so, is this manually compiling it's own GC into it?

Interestingly, you still can't buy a pre-made sandwich from a supermarket in Australia. We have Subways and sandwiches at cafe's and corner stores, but actually barely any "ready to eat" meals at our supermarkets. I won

I never stopped using Firefox, but for years was only using it for an isolated development environment. But I've been using Firefox 57 for a few month, and it's great. I still use Chrome, but I'm probably spending equal time

Yeah, I love the direction LG has taken here. Rather than removing the port, they have added a higher quality DAC to make the inbuilt 3.5mm port even better! So, I use it all the 3.5mm jack even more now. Is the idea behind an adaptor so th

Yeah, although if you did that, everybody would subconsciously think that your prices were higher. Perhaps just show the inc. tax and ex. tax prices. AirBNB and Uber do this nicely already. Half cents! ha ha... I find it funny how US pet

Australia solved this problem back in 1990 by removing 1c and 2c coins. When paying in cash, transactions are rounded to the nearest 5c. No rounding occurs for digital transactions. Have just spent a month in the USA for the first time, I

I'm assuming that 10MB would be less if you didn't want to use Kivy. However, I assume that using Django would probably take even more space that Kivy. So could it get big fast?
