   I tried CADQuery in the past, but struggled with the setup. With a very limited python background, it was suprisingly difficult to understand what prerequisites are required. I already have python installed. Why do I need anaconda? What is

   The issue here is larger than using the right language. I'm browsing through the full ruling [0], but C.1. Breaches, pages 115-117 is a good summary. - "First, the consent of the data subjects is currently not given in a sufficien

   I can confirm that our induction stove is very fast, much faster at boiling water than the (domestic) gas stoves I've had experience with. A pot of water really does boil in under two minutes, so I wanted to question your math, but it

   Root cause of this issue: export is only possible from the desktop browser plugin, but lastpass locks free users to either desktop or mobile. If your account is locked to mobile, you can't export your passwords. I have another related

   I'm not usually someone to complain about a comment or opinion, but this conflicts so much with my experience that I feel compelled to respond. I was diagnosed about 1.5 years ago, in my 30's. I would argue that yes, "that&#x

    Thanks for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate it. By the looks of it, the analytics cookies (eg SC_ANALYTICS_GLOBAL_COOKIE) are not set when not clicking "Accept and proceed". So my issue is only with the wording. In

    You could argue that the recruiter has a legitimate interest in gauging your interest in their offer. This assumes of course that the recruiter is the one actually doing the tracking, and not sharing that data with anyone else. I highly re

    I'm aware of no off the shelf solution, but this does sound like a problem that can be solved with electronics. The motor controller could do electric braking if the rider's phone isn't in the vicinity of the bike. This would

    I agree, maybe my wording about the situation could have been better. I fully support them in their handling of the attacks. Paying the ransom would in no way guarantee the attacks would stop, now or in the future. My phone's 4G hotspo

    You're charging 30% of the manufacturing cost? That seems excessive. Edit: and the free "Make It Yourself" downloads are unavailable. What exactly is "Open" about Opendesk?

    I'm certainly no expert, my knowledge is limited to what I picked up after a few nights of reading about the microscope. Does the beamsplitter have to be non-polarizing? My understanding is that standard beamsplitters do the splitting

    As far as I understand, they were logging the encrypted messages for a long time, but only had live access for a few weeks. My guess is they used this to intercept a large shipment (17+ ton of cocaine captured), and watch the communications
