So until a law is changed, it's invalid to argue for changing that law?

Not for minors though. Hope this fact doesn't make an example not to follow for other countries.

I don't know what's worse, this, or the fact that it is in a 488 LOC method. I can't trigger this behaviour in telegram though on mac or windows phone. Maybe just for Android?

Things that come to mind: less rolling resistance with 2 wheels, faster turning since you can lean, simpler mechanics in some aspects (no need for a differential), easier to build narrow vehicles with better aerodynamics.

This company [1] seems to be working on a modern version of this, but it seems like their website hasn't been updated since 2012. Anyone know of the status this projects or others alike? [1] http://www.thrustcycle.com/

Unlike other hardware, graphic cards don't have open specifications, so the only way third parties can write drivers is through reverse engineering, that's a big handicap.

Well, if he starts the custom of not delivering upon his promises to donors, I could image that the next democratic candidate would have a very hard time finding donors. So I guess the pressure from the party would be very big not to go the

The need for babel will (hopefully) go away in the future, though. So using ES6 features with Babel will end you up with a simpler project eventually , as opposed to writing ES5 with some libraries to do the same.

I see Germany's move to reinstate border controls as a way to pressure Hungary and to some extent Slovakia to agree to a quota spread of refugees. I think the german electorate would be easier to convince if they have a feeling all EU-

I like the idea of running crowd funding campaigns to release software as open source. This could be done for certain milestones (like feature X or platform Y) in a longer running or bigger project. I would even think it's fair if the

Shipping a product with sqlite doesn't contradict with having well structured code. Also, it's fine to write a prototype to get to market faster. But building further on top of that prototype is dangerous, because it will become h

The author mentions their competitors had no problem finding 9 figure investments. Also, saying that "surely" the reason for not finding investors cannot be related to sexism is saying it's all in her head. Maybe their busine

I have the same concerns, even though today I use OneDrive. My ideal solution would be a NAS that replicates my (encrypted) data across a peer to peer network of similar NAS'es, and so you would only be able to store personal data on a

I agree, and hope new high-level but efficient languages like Rust could help here.

I agree with the sentiment of the of the article. Dependencies should be isolated and not spread out all across your application. Even though both don't have tight definition, I think it's fair to say that a framework is usually l

The ad is pretty selective in what they show I think. Here you can see a live demo translating between english and german. While understandable, the level of the translation is not as good as the impression you get from the ad. http:/

I don't mind using a library for dom manipulation, or for xhr, or for missing ES5 function ... My problem with jquery is that it does all of it, in a very entangled way. This makes it very tempting to mix parts of your application that

Interesting, though the file api is not so useful beyond very basic needs, and tcp/udp seem to be completely missing. I think the selling point for this over something like node-webkit is that your executable will be lighter since it u

Funny how a lot of the comments here, on an article about framework fatigue, talk about frameworks that don't have problem x :) My preferred way of working in a lot of projects is to work with the DOM directly but keep the code that is

This is great, but using the example with the webcam stream I could not get one correct reading of a barcode.
