The behaviour you found out is an inheritage from the good old Windows Phone 7. I use it quite frequently, because when I'm going through the list it's usually because I couldn't reach to the program I wanted by just typing t

It's worth noting that ISO 8601:2004 actually defines 1BC as Year 0 – mostly to keep the leap years algorithm correct for negative years. With a zero-based numbering system it makes sense to consider the decade to be ending in 3 days.

Earlier this year I discovered Xenko [1]. I didn't test it personally, but I was quite impressed with the features provided, and the game editor looks like a mix between Unity and Unreal Engine. The 3D engine seems a little bit better

I use it daily in Lyon. I like the notifications sent every morning to tell me which bus is the fastest, as my commute to work can be done in different ways. The official app from the public transport network was revamped last month, and no

I think something is wrong with the map or some sites' coordinates, because some POI are in the Atlantic, west of Europe. Also the Netherlands memorial is located in Belgium, but in the "How to get there" instructions it is s

To this day I can't create an e-mail account on outlook.com with my full name as local part because Microsoft has a profanity filter and my lastname (that is my username here) contains a forbidden word "nude". Even though I w

Yeah the HTML preview is using QtWebEngine, but not the text editor part. I suppose there is a way to deactivate Javascript execution in QtWebEngine but I don't know enough about it. But given that Markdown allows inline HTML and JavaS

On Linux I found Ghostwriter¹. It's working really fine, I use it for all my personal writings. There is also a port² on Windows but it seems less reliable, I've seen it crash a few times, I still have to report it or try to fix i

Make it easy for your customer to get a crash report when one occurs. Make it easy for them to contact your support, whether it is a Github issues page or a professional phone support desk. Make the report readable by a simple text editor.

IP alone is not considered personal data. If this is the only thing you store about a user on your website (for example for a static website), don't bother and keep it as it is. If you store anything else about the user (their firstnam

As you said, race, religions, genders and so on are all about identity. And people are defined by their identities. If you know the person you're talking about is a cisgender woman, using the gender-neutral pronoun will feel insulting,

I think it's already too late for enterprise, those needing tracking of something, be it a forklift or a single person with a handheld computer/scanner, already found solutions for this. Actually Zebra is already offering somethin

I'd rather have a search engine on the app that provides me a relevant list of results. I mean I know the capabilities are limited because the search is supposed to work offline and doesn't call home for help, but if you don'

I know a few people in France who actually ditched their landline contract, they had full 4G coverage but were still at 8mbps with their landline. So now they're doing tethering for the complete house instead. The only thing they can&#

IIRC they also allow charging the person - for a "reasonable" amount - for the data retrieval process (which I assume would include the "identity verification" part). Maybe using the 3-D Secure protocol (especially the s

France has one of the best copyright protection laws that I know, but unfortunately that has to go both ways (no that I agree with the ruling). Now please don't consider this ruling as one made by the actual researchers, especially the

CNIL doesn't process any personal information when you're just visiting the website, so they don't need to ask for your consent. This is not a request for consent. This is like the older "Cookie Law" popup, where th
