Yes, it's on Windows I have experienced this issue. I'm not familiar with the low level mechanics of this but you seem to be. How would it work to do what you write at the end? Isn't altGr just an easier way of typing ctrl+al

I totally agree with this. Another problem are some programs where shortcuts seem to bind to some hardware codes of keys instead of what your layout says, so that shortcuts aren't what they say they are, e.g ctrl+[ would be at ctrl-å i

I really wish they'd get around to implementing saving credit card info, that's one reason I go back to chrome now and then. and there are some bugs with opening Firefox, clicking the address field on a tab that is loading and wri

I worked in a software company once where we acquired a product to integrate into ours. It was developed by a self taught programmer in his 50ies that did versioning by making copies of the whole directory when he had something that worked,

I had missed html imports, but alas they're deprecated. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Web_Components/... I had a similar thought though, and I think that custom components should stil

Related to this I wonder why we haven't got some TNS (like DNS) yet, that can give us a persistent symbolic phone-address untethered to the details of your current carrier or country? Has somebody tried it?

In Swedish we also have "-tyg" and "-don" which is similar. So we have far-tyg for faring-stuff on water, and for-don for faring-stuff on land. Tyg on itself is fabric, like "stoff" is in German or Danish (in D

This was the biggest reason I switched from working as a programmer and spent some semesters becoming a high school teacher teaching mathematics and programming. I feel I can be much more available for my (to be) wife and my friends now. (i

Is there no way one can extract the oneplus camera app and install it on lineageos? I'm also going to finally switch now, but I don't understand why there isn't some clever hacker that has done this yet. Is is impossible?

That is a very interesting video series, thank you! I have been thinking about the next levels of repetition since watching vihart explain how all of elementary algebra is just "fancy counting" https://youtu.be/N-7

Matt Parker (standupmath at youtube) does a presentation he calls "Clutching at Random Straws". It doesn't, as far as I can recall, specifically deal with Mondegreens, but about 38 minutes in he does a fun demonstration of ho

I found it surprisingly useful with my phone. But I couldn't edit the code using my regular keyboard (swiftkey), it did not add letters, only replaced the letter before the cursor, but it worked fine with the stock android keyboard. Ha

I believe it is possible to use a cc here without the pin if you show ID and sign a receipt. I think I've seen it for people who've forgotten their code and tourists who don't know their code.

Is this not changing though? I can't remember the last time I bought something online without having to either use password or 2factor auth, and there are no places here that do not require a pin code when using a cc in a store. I&#x

I agree that it depends on age. I will be teaching high school kids next autumn and I have been looking at potentially using http://gomix.me where you can prep an assignment and they can easily clone it and get hacking.
