No, but there are authors who attempt to avoid an agenda, and authors who attempt to advance one. It's an important distinction.

"\x01\x02".encode('zlib') is a really odd API. Just making sure: this is a real thing, and you're in favor of it?

That's also true of Ruby, Python, Perl, ... Ultimately, if you're on Windows and you want a smooth development experience, you need to use made-for-Windows technologies (notably C# and friends). Hopefully that changes one day.

Matter-of-fact writing and great images. Very well done. And I think you've just made Product Hunt insiders a lot more popular...

Have you read Mitchell's memo? The point is to get rid of XUL.
667.
by bronson 11y ago
To get rid of XUL of course, which is a big reason the memo says it's being canceled. (Might be the biggest reason, since it's mentioned first, but the memo wanders around and is pretty vague on exactly what the problems are)

Wow, you think it would take more than a few developer-years?

Twelve hundred employees??? And they couldn't find one or two of them to port Thunderbird to Qt.

Shovel more crap like Pocket and Hello into their flagship product and pray that something sticks? Agreed, it seems like they're rapidly running out of options. It's getting a little concerning.

It should be noted that this isn't using LetsEncrypt's client.

Nice job! I found LE's client irritating to use as well. Yours sounds clean and correct. (I'm just amazed that LE decided to try modifying webserver config files automatically. There are soooo many ways for that to fail. It&#x

Me too, and I started coding it. It got a little thorny so I solved my problem with git on encfs and moved on. I still really want to see this solved. But it needs to be secure, easy to use, and clean... it'll take some effort.

Looks like a great paper. Going to read it closer tonight. But where's the code?

By your logic, if I ace the ground school exam, then I'm ready to be a pilot. It's going to be long time before a computer can write as well as an average lawyer. And, when that day comes, you'll find that just as many progr

I couldn't see what was weirding everyone out. I'd selected it by double-clicking the first word and dragging. If you click outside the text and drag across it, this page makes a lot more sense.

The article showed Ember 1.9 coming in dead last because of code size. 2.0 is supposed to be a little better but do you really think it's going to be ahead of the curve? It seems pretty unlikely... I hope you'll say more.

I got a great score on an exotic DMM from the 80s where the only problem was a weak ROM socket. Machine pin sockets might be OK (if you're always inserting a brand new IC) but dual wipe definitely wears out. Gold plating only works fo

True. I just meant clock rates faster than 50MHz or so, so you need tiny pin/ball arrays instead of something huge and overengineered.

Just google, there's massive amounts of industry data. One term is "insertion cycle", another is "loss of force". A typical soldered PCB connection will always last longer than a comparable mechanical one. (compa

You're confused. N2O (nitrous oxide) is laughing gas, charges some whipped creams, and a severe greenhouse gas. NO2 (nitrogen dioxide) is the automotive combustion product being regulated because it's toxic when inhaled. They&#
