Moto Z cost north of 700 €. I would not call that cheap.

It's a Moto Z2 Play. Previous one was a Moto Z. Both show burn in after a year of use.

Guess we'll see in a year or so. My OLED phone had burn in after a year and I can see the Android status bar when I watch full screen videos.

My Moto Z2 Play showed burn in of the top status bar after a year. My Moto Z did the same. OLED burn in is not a fixed problem.

Elixir also has a pipe construct: f |> g(1) would be equivalent to g(f, 1)

Isn't that true for "normal" text too? Don't we skim text usually pretty quickly based on how the words look like, instead of reading every letter one by one?

Chromium is the open source project that Chrome the proprietary browser is built on. Chrome is basically Chromium + some proprietary bits, Google branding, and Google features. Chromium, while being open source, is a project run by Google,

It's the same, just a lot bigger.

There is a difference, though (not related to the subject matter in GP's post, but related to sandboxing). You can download Slack from the App Store, but you can't give mouse access to viewers when screen sharing unless you downlo

Vivaldi shows domains in punycode by default. I believe this is the only reasonable solution, otherwise browser makers will always be playing catch-up with exploiters.

C&C didn't have ore, it had Tiberium. Red Alert had ore and diamonds.

Android's permission system was overhauled in version 6 so that permissions are now generally asked when they are needed, for a specific type of operation, instead of the big dialog when installing. I personally use several apps where

In most cases, BEAM's (the Erlang VM's) context switches are not big and expensive, though, which is something you get with user space threads.

As a Finn and prolific user of å, ä, ö, and € among other things, Python 3 was a massive improvement. Sure it forces me to choose what to do at the Unicode boundary but Py2 was rife with UnicodeErrors that would pop up at the most inopportu

I don't think a testing method where there is a risk of a lot of innocent people dying is going to be accepted anywhere. I guess that is the dilemma with these situations.

You forget that there are houses below the bridge, that could have been crushed. Not exactly a place for destructive testing.

Just a note: The atom for "null" is actually `nil`.

Do you mean getting programming amounts from git repos directly? I consider it too difficult to do sensibly as in commits you may have generated code, copypaste, and also a lot of work may not end up in a commit and so wouldn't show up

Hey, that's a valid opinion. :) No code is ever sent and I would not even want that, but I understand the concern. This code base won't convert easily into a native application, but if you don't mind installing some dependenc

Code::Stats is a free service I've been writing (with a few contributors) on my free time for the past couple of years, just had a bigger 2.0 release this July. The backend is written in Elixir with a PostgreSQL database, using the Pho

Using HTTP to redirect to HTTPS is fine, but you should augment it with HSTS (to instruct browsers to always go to HTTPS) and HSTS preload (to let browsers know to go for HTTPS even before they visit your site the first time).

Elixir has optional parentheses but they are discouraged in most cases and the official formatter will add them back, so at least there is a community opinion.

But that's exactly how they marketed Snow Leopard (macOS 10.6). They even said it would have "no new features", instead focusing on making it faster and more reliable.

That would require an array of 32 bit integers (basically UTF-32). It wastes a lot of space for most characters and doesn't help that much with indexing since user perceived characters can still be composed of many codepoints. Differen

Yes. The problem earlier was that NIFs had a maximum runtime of 1 millisecond before they needed to store their work and return control to BEAM, to avoid blocking the BEAM schedulers. Dirty NIFs refer to NIFs that can run for longer, on spe

Can you do that? In my country they would send extra tax back to you next year.

It's against the money collection laws. Basically you have to have a permit to collect donations. That permit costs money itself and has some bureaucracy to it. It's also limited in time so you have to get a new permit after it ex

Looks nice and simple, I like the graphical style. Unfortunately I cannot try it out as putting the link on my site would be illegal in my country (Finland). Here's hoping we get more sensible laws in the future. :/

That has nothing to do with CSS Grid, though, which is what the IBM tool is about. CSS Grid being the new way to layout in CSS: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-grid-1/
