I see, you are asking for the email address, so that people can unlock their account in case they delete their oauth token provider (i.e. their tw/fb account), did I understand that correctly? But do you have to do this whenever a comp

As a user of these services I can stay that I am very happy about this *(I didn't know, but somebody here on hn claimed github auth did the same thing). This is exactly how it should work. What on earth is your excuse to really need my

We had this discussion when we were talking about web based IDEs here on hn the other day (can't be bothered for the link). I like oauth, but I hate clicking "sign in with {Facebook|Twitter|Github}" and then being asked for a

I liked this test. I am running a calibrated display, so I am assuming the display is not a factor. Remember to relax your eyes frequently, starring at a color for too long tires the cone cells and might affect your test results as a fatigu

I noticed this as well, just giving the range is not really helpful. Also the scale is strange, 0 being the best. I was confused when I scored a 4...

You are right, feedback should contain constructive comments, but I couldn't be bothered to go into further details when I wrote my response. Here is a short video that I made showing what it really sounds like on my machine: https:&#

I checked out the solution on github, but my results were not like advertised in the video. On my laptop it sounded like a dying cat of some sort.

I am not sure there is a generic answer to your inquiry. If you want to understand python itself you would be best off checking out the source code, building it yourself and then try to change some language features for fun. Other than that

I was confused by this, too. Also there are absolutely no imports. This leaves me really confused, wondering why why why anyone would ever do such a thing. I have two benevolent, understanding and sympathetic explanations: The author is fro

Let's ask this question in a more general fashion... I believe I share this view on maths and cs. There appears to be a gap between computer science and software-making (writing, coding, engineering, "bricklaying", "appl

I wonder if the process can be improved by using long exposure pictures. You might know the effect from long exposures at night: the lights of the cars are in the frame, but the cars themselves have vanished. During daylight a similar effec

There is a nice book by Terence Parr on "The Pragmatic Bookshelf" called "Language Implementation Patterns". I found this to be a perfect introduction to compilers with a very practical point of view. Rather than talking

You are absolutely right, I didn't think about this when I wrote my comment. LOC is in itself a very poor metric, therefore "Changed LOC" doesn't improve any interpretation. Including the number and sizes of repos would

I feel that these popularity indices are pretty flawed and most often used as arguments under a confirmation bias. Defining "Popularity" is no good measure in my opinion. This graph just shows that with many lines changed many que

Around agile software development, since lean as the "Toyota Way" originated from Japan, a lot of Japan's folklore diffuses into modern agile dev- lingo, such as Kanban, Kata, Dojo, Kaizen. I found another term that I liked:

Getting feedback on an application would be really valuable. My girlfriend got rejected by an acting college in London just last week - they didn't tell her why or how she could improve. She was really disappointed. Everytime I had an

I'd like to stress what the article says about the difference to other caffeinated drinks. I drink coffee a lot, since it is more easily available, but I prefer club mate if I can get some. For work it is much better than coffee. I ten

Thanks, I'll give it a read! I don't have a definite stance on the topic but I am aware that a lot of people are making a lot of points on this - indeed - very philosophical topic. I often lean back and enjoy the discourse, it is

In cognitive sciences there is a dispute about the nature of cognition and what scientific tools to apply. Some say cognition is computation, others say its just behavior of a dynamic or connectionist system. A good sumary of aspects can be

Thank you for your clarification. Yet I wish more app creators would understand how I feel about these things (others might think so too): You don't ever need to contact me unless it is for confirming accounts, which you don't hav

Thanks for pointing it out, all the fun and irony aside I bet someone might not get it, so I think we should be responsible and make it explicit that you should never, EVER post your private key anywhere. If you click "Check" it s

In my opinion there is just no good use for Comic Sans, except for speech bubbles in a comic (and even for that there are better fonts). Important memo or note at a pediatric ward of a hospital? Well, you are still communicating with adults

That is true, it all leaves a certain aftertaste. I am not sure what to make of all this. A German saying goes like this: "The wiser mind gives in". But sometimes, that might leave an area ruled by idiots. So yeah, we (a hypotheti
