I'm pretty sure the default is Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right, but I've customized it so many times I can't be completely sure. OS X actually allows a lot of customization. You assign a keyboard shortcut to any menu item in System

It doesn't require a static IP; you can use SNI to use HTTPS on a shared IP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication SNI was already been mentioned an hour ago, too: https://news.ycombinato

In addition to ad revenue issue r1ch mentioned (a friend of mine told me HTTPS ads provided less than half the revenue HTTP ads provide), there are a few other things I've encountered while working on HTTPS support: - More ad network m

Table flipping is an expression of frustration; it means someone's given up on trying to solve a problem constructively and gotten so angry that they flip the table over. In context, the relevant part of the metaphor is giving up on th

The ports, though? That looks like USB Type A? I think that'll be replaced by USB Type C sooner or later. If you think about old computers with their serial ports and floppy drives, it's hard to think these ports will still be in

Whether or not it's true that the data throttling is unintentional, by being publicly hostile to the EFF, he's losing customer goodwill that's one of the biggest things T-Mobile has going for them.

Yeah, I was going to ask the user for confirmation before falling back to HTTP, when I realized what you did: an active attacker can just change the URL of the iframe. Anyone who really needs secure pokemon battles can just use the HTTPS si

Well, we do support full-HTTPS, it just isn't required. If it were, PS would have been unusable to anyone with Firefox and Avast/BitDefender/etc. It also allows image embeds. Users often share HTTP images in the chatrooms, wh

Fair enough. I started skimming around halfway through so I missed that. I'd agree that there are limits to what you can read into the method of delivery, but: I think anger and indignance are valid attitudes to have, and that seems la

That is a very long article... The point seems to be that while there's been a lot of criticism of snark (too much negativity), smarm (too much positivity) is also bad. It seems to me that the way he describes them, snark and smarm are

The point is that NAN2 is compatible with old versions of Node and io.js, not that NAN2 is compatible with NAN1. This is bolded in the article we're discussing: > NAN's promise is to provide a single API to develop against, not

The article we're discussing answers this question - NAN gives you backwards compatibility with old versions of V8 (and therefore Node), while the V8 API doesn't.

I think you're still conflating demand with transaction volume. Let me put it this way: > Furthermore, demand is also increased (demand for the amount of nights) because visitors can stay cheaper (per night) so some stay longer. I.e

If you're counting "short term tenants" in the demand, it seems really dishonest not to count the properties that serve them in the supply. If we're talking about the supply and demand of all housing, supply has not chan

English also has words for this concept - "reading backlog" and "unread books piling up". The Japanese term 'tsundoku' is mainly notable because it's a pun portmanteau of 'tsunde oku' (piling up)

The problem is, the changed business model will often be worse, because if it were better, we'd already have switched to it by now. Look at the main alternatives – subscription is the usual other one. And subscription will probably be

Splash resistance generally means it's fine in the shower and while washing hands, just not while swimming. Or, at least, that's how I've always interpreted it.

It's less self-fulfilling than you would expect. Research shows that tip amount isn't very affected by the quality of service, but much more affected by the person doing the tipping.
