I think there is some bit of over-simplification in the argument that just because video can't be decrypted, it is likely benign. The acknowledgement of a buffer overflow exploit by facebook through a CVE ( https://www.facebo

I think the government, holds to benefit from this, and there might be no need of lobbying. Any transaction in cash for such a high amount, is intentionally done to keep the transaction off-book (and avoid taxes). There is little reason, wh

I agree. But that said, it's good to give people estimate of what the costs for a moon mission are compared to other things we do on earth. In that sense, this comparison is useful, because "half the cost of avengers movie" i

Yes, it will, because map has O(1) GET operations, and that's all the trie needs. In terms of space complexity, it does consume more space than a single element / node tree, (especially for maps with super low load factor) but tri

Firefox uses much more of my CPU cycles than Chrome for some reason. I wish it had a good task manager for me to debug the culprit process. I can feel my laptop loudly spinning fan, after a long running firefox session. It stops doing this,

A doctor has to mostly always treat common cold, and influenza. But that's no excuse for her / him to not know the purpose of the left pulmonary vein. The more basics they know, the better doctors they are. Sorry if this analogy i

Great. I will not, as it already is uploaded there to avoid de-duping. My reasoning was that I find the viewing experience there better, and that place is a better place to search videos later on. But given that video already exists there,

Not sure if this is a sarcastic comment. But afaict, Android apps in Chrome OS need not be artificially blown up to full screen. They can run in a windowed mode, in an optimal size. However, I don't see any technical challenges in supp

Exactly. Infact, he was even pal-ly with Nawaz Sharif (the then PM of Pakistan and therefore India's sworn enemy #1). I wouldn't read into anything inferred from diplomatic compulsions.

So still no GTK3? I think when GTK4 is released in a few months, it would be a good time to move to GTK3 as they can still be outdated. I know I am being a bit bitter for an open source project with less funding, but GIMP was supposed to be
