I promise I'm not trying to pick on you here, but LabVIEW actually offers a module specifically for building web-based interfaces for your equipment ( http://www.ni.com/en-us/shop/select/labview-nxg-web-mo

It's not purely graphical, but MATLAB with Simulink definitely qualifies as both mainstream and general purpose from my perspective. A feature equivalent FOSS alternative would be nice though...

Assuming a mainstream terminal emulator, [CTRL] + [SHIFT] + [C/V] works well enough most of the time. Copying that way does break if you tile though.

Most of that seems oriented at full, manual archival rather than automated (lightweight-ish) text caching for search operations. ArchiveBox ( https://github.com/pirate/ArchiveBox ) looks promising, although it isn't

I had no idea. How is something so amazingly functional and immediately useful allowed to disappear? It just seems like such an obvious thing to build into a browser engine.

In addition to what @ggm said, consider why software projects tend to employ external libraries instead of rolling their own solution. The time investment of reinventing the wheel is often immense , even though the eventual result may be o

You've managed to put into words something that really bothers me about how software and devices are designed and used at present. An extension of my physical being (which is increasingly how devices are used) should probably be as ind

I'm not sure if it's up to the task (yet?), but thermoelectric coolers are routinely used for CCDs that operate below -80 °C (an overview: https://www.azom.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=14681 ). I suspect someone will

Doesn't your scenario essentially amount to asking what happens if you use a poorly written library that does bad things and it breaks your program in unexpected ways? That can happen in every language I'm aware of, regardless of

After a bit more reading, it seems I hadn't realized just how low level direct system calls actually are ( https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/X86_Assembly/Interfacing_with_... ). Apparently it's either a softwa

I don't usually think of integer constants passed as an argument to a function as an ABI, but given that they're hard coded at kernel compile time, fair enough. What I'm struggling to understand is why an additional layer of

The description says to program to the API instead of the ABI. I'm not very familiar with low level work and exploits, but aren't syscalls the API for the kernel itself? As far as I'm able to understand, it seems like the pro

The importance of this point really can't be understated. I used to be mildly frustrated that my civil rights were being eroded but it was largely an abstract issue. Now, I increasingly wonder how we're going to cope with signific

That's actually a pretty convincing list! You might want to consider adding a feature comparison matrix for a few of the more popular formats in a prominent location. It also probably wouldn't hurt to lead the page with a small ex

Well now I'm not sure. I'm certain I saw a few reported years ago as assuming you had the key if they could show that you had encrypted something. I looked just now and couldn't find record of such key disclosure laws though.

Yes, watt hours or joules would work there but not watts. In general the figures all seem to assume 30 watts of power consumption at near-idle, which is completely ridiculous unless you happen to be using either a high end workstation or an
