The application in question is frozen for that period though, that's the wait they're referring to. Even websites had this problem with freezing the browser in the early AJAX days, when people would do a synchronous XMLHttpRequest

We're talking about fingerprinting, not serving up content. They could leave the content being served up unchanged, then add those tags elsewhere on the page where the user wouldn't notice, pointing at a tiny 1-second empty video.

I'm guessing you have touchpad corners enabled. Usually by default lower-right is 2nd mouse button and upper-right is 3rd mouse button (middle click). I only use the touchpad, but knowing where it is I can avoid it and almost never tr

Yes, the randomness is still there but less manually specified by the developer. But also I haven't actually used it myself but had seen stuff on it before, so I had the wrong term: it's "property-based testing" you wan

In that case, scrolling down, the other replies don't get it quite right either. An alternate way of phrasing that one would be "innovation over stability/perfectionism". It came from Facebook, where users can tolerate

"this" doesn't indicate which one it's referring to. Obviously they understand the effects of "move fast and break things", so it makes sense it would refer to the other one. Doubly so they quoted one but not

I vaguely remember the same advice, it's pretty old. How you use the randomness is test specific, for example in math_add() it'd be something like: jitter = random(5) assertEqual(3 + jitter, math_add(1, 2 + jitter)) If i

A better example might be physics and math classes. I was learned derivatives and integrals at the same time in those two classes, but the math one required we learn how it all works (using limits to understand why the derivative rules work

On holidays, in the US, Thanksgiving is Fall-themed so we wouldn't want to start winter until after the 4th Thursday of November (which because of how it shifts around, pretty much means December).

by Izkata 7mo ago
Sunrise and sunset don't shift at the same time, and December 1 is right about where sunset approaches it's earliest time (where I am it's 4:19, vs the earliest at 4:18 on Dec 8) Summer doesn't work with that association
