In our case, the admins who create/manage those events have to specify the event location, so we fetch the timezone for that location and if there's any mismatch, they can change the timezone manually. Since we migrated all the da

Where I work we deal a lot with events (yoga gyms, community sports centers, etc.) and the old code was saving EVERYTHING in UTC. Every 6 months we'd have some bug report coming in saying that some event was now one hour later or earli

Back to geocities websites with hit counters! I like how it was implemented though, I simply hope I won't start seeing this everywhere from now on because it doesn't add anything to a repo to have that badge.

I want something to replace Hangouts, WhatsApp and Messenger and Telegram fits the bill while it looks to me like Signal doesn't. My Telegram account can be synced on multiple PCs and devices, while Signal seems to be phone only.

I saw this pop up on /r/android yesterday and it made me and a couple friends sign up for Telegram, so I guess good job whatsapp on pushing more people towards Telegram. Streisand effect in action!

I submitted a bug report once and it was fixed the next day, I was invited to try it out on their beta version of the website and it was rolled out on all the servers a couple days later. These guys are truly providing a fantastic service.

Given how well Cards Against Humanity did in their last stupid sales like that (their first Black Friday was Everything Costs 5$ More!, on another occasion they sold shit, literally shit in a box) I think those numbers are 100% real.

First of all, npm 2's infinite nesting of dependency was a terrible design from the beginning. It was always broken (This is why on our windows build servers we need to do all sorts of stupid workaround to make npm work). There is no o

This only reinforces the idea I have that NPM is the absolute worst package manager ever and I wish it would die and people would start using one that works (or building one that works) A huge regression like that (x3 slower) is not somethi

Who? In all seriousness, even if others tried before, they may only have failed because of having no visibility or bad marketing. This has the support of Chromium behind it, so it might be the only key point that would make this viable and

There are consumer protection laws that protect both consumers and sellers when mistakes are made like in this case (at least here in Québec and Canada, it must be similar in the US). Let's say you're selling a 10$ gift card on yo

With VS Community Edition being free I don't see why developers providing open source libraries should restrict themselves to older versions.

So what do you recommend? I just open-sourced my first library and I chose MIT licence because I feel it was what was recommended by github when they ask you to choose a licence. I really didn't explore my options much.

This feels to me like design overload. Someone tried to do too much or too many ideas in a single page. I'm with you, I don't like it.

But this tool is not meant to be used. You should never have to write "import someReallyOffensiveModuleName" because those are jokes not meant to be used at work.

I'd hope the algorithm was designed to crash the car instead of running over a pedestrian. A pedestrian has little chance to survive getting run over compared to a passenger in a car with a seatbelt, airbags, crumple zones, etc.. to pr

I trust a highly trained algorithm to make better and faster decision than a human driver. The algorithm is even aware of all the cars around it and their speed and can decide to take evasive action with a way better chance of success than
