So according to you I am naive, over privileged, unaware of the "universal human truths" and wilfully blind. This is what I mean about charity. If you can't make a point without accusations and hostility then I believe you ne

I think this is a legitimate question. If people are saying knowledge of specific computer addresses is harmful it's the same as saying IPv6 is harmful, which would be a shame. I also understand the proxy / vpn IP leaking issue. B

I almost became an author (of a video series) for them. I signed a contract and produced a couple of chapters. I found they had pretty reasonable copy editors, at least the one I worked with was helpful and thorough. My main problem, and th

Seems like a fun idea, and it potentially allows really precise cooking with the internal probes too. Hopefully they don't go to overboard with the social media and wireless connection and focus on making something practical in the kit

Apparently it can recognize what you put inside it from the camera. You can also stream the video to your iPhone - allowing you to post time lapses of your roast chicken to Vine I suppose.

I use DHC and like it a lot. I tried a bunch of the other Chrome based HTTP testers and found it to be the easiest and neatest one. I haven't tried Postman yet though. It would be nice if there was a way for it to tell I have donated t

There are also people doing this by listening to the element.copy event then switching out the selected element. TYNT[0] are the primary culprits (they promise to let you "leverage on site copy and paste activity"). I found out ab

I do this. The curriculum is all available on github[0]. I think the first semester (Scratch) is really good. Personally I don't like the python and html/css stuff later. The material is quite old fashioned, using terminals and ra

The theme of the article is the author believes his teachers did not respect him. I said he therefore must believe them to be stupid or mean, since we all believe he deserved their respect. To sustain the accusation though: > ... the tea

I would love to learn more about this, can you give me any pointers or links? I haven't had teacher training and I obviously only do it part time, so I'm sure a more experienced teacher might have a different view on this. I can b

I didn't realise that. Are the depositions online somewhere too? To be honest, I don't believe he's lying. But I also think it's bad behaviour to condemn someone after hearing only one side of the story, which is what so

Ah thanks for explaining it. I'm so used to thinking of http as a set of concurrent requests, but as a single stream optimisations like this make sense.

Whilst it may not be as easy as you'd like Firefox definitely is embeddable. My company use it in our desktop photo application.

The other way to do this, which is common in (older?) 3d video games, is to render your scene twice, once normally and once with each object shaded in a unique flat colour. Then sample your second bitmap at the mouse position and map the pi
