Anybody knows if it is possible to use Pocket with a custom server? So far I found only the ticket which tracks the open sourcing process of pocket: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1343006 11 month old, not eve

Well, while I agree that it is nearly impossible to write a useful Makefile for a more than minimal C project, I found that if you are willing to structure your project according to the best practices of CMake you can write fairly simple an

Somehow, everybody pretends as if Webkit is some proprietary, closed source rendering engine, but after all, it is the great success of the KDE/Konqueror rendering engine, being adopted by some huge corporations (Apple, Google). [1] Wh

We are talking about tools here. Standards are a different beast. For example it is cool to have multiple tools doing the same thing is cool because you have the choice to use what fits your need (e.g. different Web Servers). On the other h

Btw. for those who don't know: Yarn (which is an alternative to npm) uses a global cache [1] on your machine which speeds things up, but probably also protects you from immediate problems in cases like the one currently on progress (be

One of my favorite Bash patterns is the following. I call it 'feed the fish': . <(curl https://example.com/trusted.sh) While it is extremely dangerous I found it so easy to remember, that it stuck in my

I disagree too. Bash has many downsides, but there are very few languages out there which have the ability to 'connect' different programs so easily. Bash scripts are slow as hell (as most commands have to spawn new processes), it

Yeah, while it seems that every modern CPU is affected by the recently discovered vulnerabilities, Intel and AMD still refuse to release their source code for the ME and PSP. Therefore, everybody on this planet has to run hardware with a lo

I am totally with you. For me JWT is the idea to store encrypted values client-side which you can use to authenticate the client and is different to the old way of just storing a random 'dumb' session id with the linked values som

In my case it wasn't just that I used pointers which might work in some cases. Instead I used a pointer to a global variable containing a function reference (directly using a function reference was not possible as those are not 'c

My newest two gotchas: 1. Don't use private attributes for struct types if you ever want to serialize/encode them (exception: Mutex and Channel Attributes). Just had to refactor a whole lot of code just, because I decided I wanted

Why are there so many (large) companies calling themselves or their product Otto? A probably incomplete list: - http://www.otto.com - https://www.ottomotors.com - http://www.otto-company.com - https:&#x2

Short anecdote: A few years ago I had to fill in some translation keys within a ecommerce shop gui. Eventually, I had to revert some key to it's default value and therefore tried to copy and paste the displayed default value, but the s

Well, I think the lack of a definition for what is meant by abstract or abstraction is critical. For example there is some discussion of an abstract base class but the article keeps missing that in Object Oriented Programming the term

I hope they have a long breath. Actually, I expect them to give birth to a few amazing unicorns (not value wise but in terms of innovation), but at the same time it will take some time before there will be any visible results.

Thank you for stating your opionion here. Actually, I think removing Google services by default is not what we have in mind here. So we are okay that most users like Android as it is. Well, I think many of them just don't know which in

Well, Fdroid is great and with the automatic upgrade extension (totally optional) really easy to use. But using an Android without access to the Play Store is just kinda weird. So yes, you can remove Google completely from your smartphone,

Sometimes I am wondering what Google employees think when they read headlines like this one. I mean they probably have no problem giving the personal data to Google, but at the same time many of them are probably open source proponents and

To me this looks very similar to running a source based distro (Gentoo,Exherbo,...) with lots of packages using git as a fetch method (Gentoo uses the -9999 version suffix, Exherbo calls them scm packages). Can anybody tell me when I shou

Well, Bitcoin doesn't have to be so complicated to use. In fact, once you set up an account, sending and receiving money with coinbase is pretty simple. But yes, setting up an account with all the verification stuff isn't neat in

How does it increase centralization and why have miners more power than 5 years ago? (Just because the value increased? Do they have more influence to the community?) Could you pleace elaborate on that?
