What a missed opportunity in calling it Django Unchained

You're using an Oracle product ;-)

This is what pushed me back to Apple after a single Android device. After 18 months, it was running like crap, and when I bought it, it was considered one of the best flagship Android devices available (there was another that was equal, so

At a previous job I did this too. Ignore for a week, if it comes up again, then somebody actually cares about it and it's not an off the cuff comment. Current job, no so much, it's really dependent on the culture of the workplace.

Wow, what a moronic decision by Oracle. Automating installations is so important, if you're deploying 1000 servers, to not be able to automate (even just for the one character button) is stupid.

Volume Mount integration is the big one for me. UI is neither here nor there, but managing the VM is what Docker Desktop means for most users. Podman Machine is getting there, but not quite there yet.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way, Apple let you register URLs to redirect to your app, so I'm assuming they've just done this for AMP URLs and strip it back to a proper link and then open that using the system br

This is exactly what turned me off Yarn 2. I think it was a language server issue, but if it's broken, it's broken. It sent me back to NPM, and I rarely use Yarn these days at all.

I was thinking about doing this myself (but in Javascript, coz that's what I'm using day to day at the moment), and literally implementing each module of the board as a seperate piece of code.

I've transitioned to Joplin as my every day note taking app. Evernote did their dash with me when they limited to 2 devices (I was considering paying for it until that point, it showed that they're willing to change terms on a whi

I had one a number of years back when I was writing an iPhone app to be whitelabeled for various clients, that would overlay a "Beta" banner on their icons for beta releases. I wrote it for fun (and so I could easily differentiate

I used to play this lunchtime at my old job, there was about a dozen of us that used to play. I wrote a log parser (in PERL!) that would generate stats of who was killing who the most, and who had the most kills with a particular weapon to

Not quite that, but Tom Scott did an Emoji Keyboard that was spread across 3 or 4 keyboards.

I'm surprised I had to scroll this far for that comment. First thing I thought of with the headline.

The fact he was able to usually means something is lacking in the backend security. Yes, bad employee, but more encryption and security models are required. Back when I was working on share trading software, this was one of our requirement

Write a trivial app with it. I thought "oh yeah, looks ok, but not a huge benefit over REST", now I've started playing with it, I'm saying REST is the new SOAP.

I guess in an app they could screen record that transaction, but if they're only storing fields and values, this is outside of what they can capture.

So if I'm understanding this right, the big issue they have is that they're not telling the customers that they're doing it. Can't any website do exactly the same thing in recording every keystroke written into it witho

It's not just AdTech, it's the sites that put it up unreasonably also. I visit a site once, I'm not sure I'll ever go back, so of course I'm going to block notifications. If I've taken the time to sign up to

They've actually turned this decision around. In a few months (not sure why it's going to take so long) us Aussies will be able to buy from Amazon US again.

What do you call someone who was born Intersex (same commonality as natural redheads) then?

Given I've had (SFW) images reported within seconds of posting them to a private group, I think they've gone back on their word of that.

Great write up. As a photographer, the more companies are relying on this the more frustrating the mis classification of SFW as NSFW is getting. I’ve copped a few Facebook bans from automated detection (I assume given how quickly the report

Thank you. This description is what cleared it all up for me. I totally understand how this works now.

Oh I didn't think of that aspect. Yeah, that's very true.

Oracle ended up breaking Applets many times anyway. As someone who worked on a very complex applet during this period, the amount of times they changed security settings was crazy. Even some of those changes that had to be made in the manif

This was a tough read emotionally, especially the ending. Seems crazy to go out of their way for that (if true) once the damage has been done. Are the Chinese government that vindictive?

Plumbers work hard to show the right amount of crack. That's a pretty important life skill!

My wife suffers from CFS, and for the first two years, she was pretty much bed ridden. The first six months she couldn't even read in bed because she was so exhausted she couldn't concentrate enough. Lucky we had a dog to keep h

I did similar a few years ago, but then after seeing how bad the performance was, I took the exact algorithm and redid it in Java (just for comparison) and the difference in performance astounded me.
