I wonder how many lines of code from big open source applications are generic enough to be reused in other projects. Firefox and Google Chrome probably have the equivalent of many small high quality libraries embedded in them, implementing

Maybe that's a good opportunity to learn about Bazel remote cache server (although that also costs money and time to operate)

I bought a Nokia 6.1 around 2 years ago, which is part of the Android One program and it worked well! Had all security monthly updates, the system is clean and stable, updated to major versions of Android smoothly without any issue. If I ca

The camera can be lost or break. With a phone you can live stream to the internet, and everything will be remotely recorded no matter what happens on the site (unless lose of internet connection), and no matter what police do to your phone

It would be cool to have a curl-able service directory of those services on the web, and also a standard way to know the quota of refresh, and some standard /help URL to know more about the options

If I had to design it, I would not directly send the data to the central server. I would first store it for a period of time, then compress everything and then send it while the phone is inactive and plugged to the sector. Or I would build

I don't have repo on GitHub, but the mobile version is better for me so far. It uses all the screen space, and now we can finally see the language bar (% of languages used in the repo) on mobile version, which wasn't possible befo

I read RSS feeds with an app on Android called Aggregator. Reuters feeds included a short description of the story inside the feed, but Google News doesn't have them. The descriptions in the feed allowed me to precisely filter and labe

The security community is an expert community, and the people opinion isn't always aligned with expert's opinion, as the covid19 crisis showed it to us. There is probably a place for a digital voting system, for example physically

My experience diverges from yours. Reuters feeds have been highly reliable over the last 3 years for me, with near zero downtime. There were at least one new entry per hour, almost 24h/24, but it can go up to 5 new entries per hour. Th

Hi dang. The feeds are _not_ populating for about 24h now, but any rss readers that fetched the last news from 24h ago will still show the last news from 24h ago (like in the imgur picture). With all my respect, I would agree to change the

I believe that sort of attack can't be achieved repeatedly. These attacks leave traces and clues behind them, and investigators are able to better pinpoint and protect for the next one. I heard they also can't be sustained for a l

You could use a fuzzer and fuzz several DBMS products at the same time. If their db's states or query results start to diverge, you probably found a bug in one of the product.

I never used the service, but I guess this is to avoid extreme cases. I guess the record are used in case of litigation, not to meet a fixed level of performance (aren't Upwork workers independent contractors, anyway?) . Also, saving t

Same here : I use it for Firefox and Chromium, and it just works. Another comment mentioned VLC, which should be a good candidate for frequent release too. I can understand the "proprietary store" concerns of this thread, however.

That looks like a good analysis to me. There are so many regulations in EU that if something happens, even organically, it has to be in order with EU regulations and priorities. The USA appropriation was never out of EU control, it was rath

Yep, that will be fun. Hopefully we will soon see the same hardware accelerators in laptops than currently existing in smartphones. I bet in the future, neural models will constantly run in background for some tasks.
