D'oh. I searched for prior submissions of the URL I posted but not the original. Apologies for the repost.

Same here, perhaps "GitHub announces Diffs for 3D Files" would be clearer. This is a really awesome feature though, I'd be curious to see what other types of files they do this for (if any).

I would also add that using encryption online is much more of a norm than walking around downtown in black clothes and a face-covering balaclava. While both activities are perfectly legal and acceptable, the former is performed by millions

It would be interesting to see statistics on exploits sold in the black market lately, since it seems like these companies (Facebook, Google) are doing a thoroughly good job at pushing independent researchers to do just that. I'm aware

Out of curiosity, what store (assuming its a chain, or large enough to be known outside local circles)? That's pretty nifty.

I agree with both, but the discussion will probably be similar to the ones being had today. We're all upset, but "we" are the minority. Even if smartwatches become a trend, they will still be worn by some limited percentage o

I didn't mean to imply that this is possible with technology we have at the moment. A piece of JavaScript code (framework, perhaps) could surely send the needed data, and for those with JS disabled, the page could fail over to using me

I attend (and work for) Rutgers, which is one of the data sources listed there. Our data stream is api.rutgers.edu which offers campus bus arrival time predictions (via NextBus), upcoming event info, dining hall menus, sports scores, and in

Why can't this adaptation happen on the server? Client tells server what the resolution possibilities are ("the current browser size is X by Y, and my screen size (and thus maximum browser size) is W by Z), and server gives back o

I wouldn't call that simpler. You have to register using a fake email, possibly actually go check the inbox and click a link, and possibly be required to log in again now that the account is registered. With bugmenot, all you do is cop
