Just don't travel there. I'm sure I'd be fine: I've been fine a dozen times before. That was before they decided that it was OK to demand passwords and so on. Maybe now it would be worse. Or maybe my skin colour lets me

Awesome! Vintageous is nice, but there are outstanding bugs that are annoying and it has had that "it doesn't matter if you write a nice PR I'm going to ignore it" feel about it for some time.

Some feedback: All of your titles are "Remote stash" instead of what they're really about, so it's hard to find tabs if you have multiple open. "Work hard anywhere" doesn't seem to have anything to do with

I try to use Uber as little as possible. Ironically, the only time I was forced to use it was in Italy, because it turned out it was a public holiday, so no public transport (including taxis) were running.

I only ever monkeyed around with Clojure, but on their first example: is it weird I'm OK with both? The only thing that surprises me about both of those examples is that :state is a collection of things not just one thing, but I imagin

If I buy The Martian in a year will I get the normal version of the safe for our precious children version? If I buy it on Kindle will it magically update in the future to protect my brain from the badness? Or will there be an adult version

Wait. I'm not a HTML/CSS wiz by anyone's stretch of anyone's imagination, but isn't H1 the semantically correct thing to use here? So using his first example, instead of using <h2> just use <h1>, and the

Shrug. I have to do the same thing in OSX. Every major update I google what's changed and then disable 90% of it. In what world do I want Siri on my laptop…

It would be great if you didn't post this with a click bait title. It might be stupid, but on principle I'm not going to read it.

Deep down there is the conversation about using both TCP and UDP. This leads to a paper[1] presented in 1997. How much does this sort of thing (and the hardware / capability it's running on) change in 20 years? I wonder if it&#x27

Any examples of similar sites? It smashes a core of my laptop (i7 / 16GB) as well, but every site I've been to that looks like this (3D realtime) does the same thing, so I'm used to it.

I think the worst thing about this is that it tricks you into thinking that dipping into emails at the park or piddling around in a spreadsheet while you're piddling is actually working. It's not. It's an addiction. It's

I think the lack of friction is a real and present benefit. And the benefits of native development (eg interaction outside of the browser sandbox, high performance) are not required for a lot of apps. And , it would hopefully kill off all

I was wondering if stopping for the joggers was more of a bug than a feature. I don't drive much, so I'm definitely not an expert about what is best in that situation, but I would have drifted over the middle line to give them a n

What would the differences be to you? The article describes them as "a significant, but platonic, other whom you pair up with at the office". To me that's what a close friend is (as opposed to an acquaintance etc). I've

Interestingly, I don't have my GH location set, and so their data defaults to ZA, and my location to 28.16256, -23.41612. Weird they couldn't just leave those values blank.

Man I hope so. ~30% of Indians are without power[1], and I hear they have a lot of coal naturally, so if they're not careful they could be a large growing source of problems in the future as they grid up. It's good to hear that bo
