I think this speaks to a change in direction to VR/AR systems. It seems pretty clear that long-term tracking solutions will include face/body tracking. Oculus hopes their camera-based tracking can be extended to track full bodies

Not entirely. LIDAR has other issues important when building self-driving cars. LIDAR can't read signs. LIDAR doesn't work well in the rain, though progress is being made these days.. And don't forget the cameras tesla uses d

It's not going to take a genius to start adding an aux-out to usb-c car chargers. I'll have to replace my micro usb car charger anyway.

It would also be a great way to offset the declining tax income from declining gasoline sales.

The output of npm view is essentially a version of the package.json. That's a pretty standard structure. You can form some of the fields in different ways. But why would you want to grep through json when you can parse it?

As a general answer, doing something simple in pure JS can be more efficient than the overhead associated with making a native call from JS. The costs are going to vary depending on how the JIT handles things. That's probably the best

Alarming? Just use facebook's immutable types or a transpiled language (eg typescript) that has them built in. Unless you're meaning it's funny/alarming how the author was able to write so much without googling a solutio

If you're talking about GraphQL, the implementation is undefined by default. It's just a query language spec. There isn't a "GraphQL Server" product. You can resolve data from many sources. It could be a no-sql data

There's more to it than that. React Native has a lot of things that aren't in React/ReactDOM. The most obvious is the bridge between javascript and native code. React Native has supporting tools like the packager which you wo

Microsoft has already answered this. Their React Native target for the windows desktop uses UWP. Microsoft is pushing UWP as a capable desktop platform. AFAIK, they aren't ending support for their other platforms just yet. WPF is still

You should understand a platforms general limitations before committing to it for any given piece of functionality. If you can't use it for something, don't. No one claims you can't mix and match. Use something like AWS Lambd

Opera was responding to something published a few days ago by Microsoft's marketing/Edge team. That's why it's directed at Edge.

The 8 char password does not decrypt the key; it unlocks/retrieves it. The drive will only allow a fixed number of attempts. Once past the 10 or whatever allowed attempts, an attacker needs to brute force the full encryption key. It sh

It was mentioned in the article that a worrying point with wind is that the costs have not been coming down. The cost of solar panels has been cut in half over the last few years while hardware for wind has remained roughly constant. Of cou

npm does a decent enough job deduping shared packages. The reason is different packages consume different versions of things. Java only lets you have a single version of a package. If the API changes, it can be a pain when your dependencies

That entirely depends on your bundler. Newer bundlers like http://rollupjs.org/ combine everything to avoid this.

Absolutely this. It fully conveyed real emotion with a sense of panic.. then seeing the different behaviors in the crowd too. The guards. The whole thing tells a story. I hope it's significantly more than just a tech demo. I'm hoo

This article seems wrong to me. I don't know a ton about the iPhone's specific implementation. That said, I was under the impression that these systems all worked similarly to the PC's TPM. Essentially, the encryption key is

Well, it's Express. Five years ago, when most development happened on a desktop, I'd agree. These days most developers have laptops. I guess it's time for them to revisit their Express config.

To be fair, a lot of those concerns are handled pretty well by traction control systems, etc. I drive in the snow a lot and really appreciate the things my car does to micro-manage traction. The main rule for driving in snow is to assume ev

Symlinks break peer dependencies.

That doesn't handle peer dependencies. Those are resolved by walking up the filesystem. You can't walk up the file system with a symlinked structure. A single npm can be resolving different peer dependencies depending on where it

by JaRail 11y ago
The file system layout is constrained by how dependency resolution works. For example, a require() call has a very (computationally) simple algorithm. I certainly agree that your suggestion simplifies file-system layouts. The tradeoff is th

I choose to blame Comcast -- with that backdoor in place, they have the resources to decrypt about... 300 gb/month per customer of traffic. Very interesting :D

+1. The majority of those requests on major websites don't matter. They are optional elements/scripts and prefetches for possible actions. Now, if the point is that something will be delayed, that's true. And it's true
