It's silly they only compared it to a normal on-screen keyboard and not any other input methods, predictive or not (Swype, etc.). It should be also be noted that their speech tests were done in a controlled, silent environment. I'

OS X can only scale by powers of 2. If your monitor runs at native 4K (3840x2160), scaling ~1.28x renders to 6016x3384 and scales down by 2x to 3008x1692. Your example is at 1.5x (2560x1440), which renders to 5120x2880 and scales down by 2x

No, this is incorrect. It's up to the implementation of the muxer to determine where index information goes, which is typically at the end of the file. This is simply because writing a file is a single pass operation, and you don'

Have you actually implemented something following this spec? My experience is that it's somewhat okay-defined for consuming data, but the spec itself is wildly incomplete in the other direction. Looking at the repo and discussion forum

For those interested, Bill Hammack (Engineer Guy) pulled apart a 1970s-era flight recorder in an old video.[1] The one in video, though, gets etched to a roll of tin rather than recorded to a magnetic tape. [1]: https://www.youtu

The worst problem I've had running a VPN on a VPS is that Google tends to think you're a bot and makes you enter captcha every search query.

There is indeed a lot of focus on the screenshot now, but the two column layout wasn't that great either. For example, videos with long prefixes would make the right half of the layout useless: http://i.imgur.com/7L8nB7

No, many people get this wrong. Mainline is stable, and http://hg.nginx.org/nginx/ is dev. The labeled stable version is for distros that have strict upgrade policies. nginx recommends using mainline over stable: &quot

How prevalent is `try` in rails/activesupport? My benchmarks show that the lonely operator is ~2x faster than `try`. I'd expect someone to create a gem that monkey patches `try` for those running 2.3.0.

Samsung Pay's pitch is that it is (mostly) backwards compatible with existing card readers. When NFC fails, it does fallback to magnetic strip emulation.

It's not a layout issue. There are 50+ tiny requests for images of the background and borders. If anything, this shows the reason to use css sprites.

I use rust with ios, and my bridging header just includes a single C header file. I don't see how it's any more complicated than using a C library.

For creation and updating, I can see why you would want to authenticate and authorize users, but there should should still be a way to have the app go into a read only state if all I want to do is scan.

Ah, you're right. I read sshd_config(5) on Arch, which uses 6.9p1 and says the incorrect default is "no". I assumed this was the case on other distros. So to correct my previous post (I can't seem to edit?), it should be

I was curious, so I checked different distros. Debian-based distros set `without-password`, and others use the default `no`. * Arch Linux (openssh-6.9p1-1): #PermitRootLogin no * CentOS 7 (openssh-server 6.6.1p1-12.el7_1): #PermitRoot
