While that works, it's reset whenever you clear your history and data completely. Isn't there a way to whitelist this in user.js permanently?

I would go further and disable remote fonts as well since it's not crucial like images and is an attack vector that should have been avoided. The better solution would have been a shared set of web fonts distributed with browsers, just

Right, and I didn't learn TDD formally. Sorry for using it freely. I write tests in tandem with the implementation and do not write tests and only then the implementation.

Same misuse happens with copyright. Both were invented to foster publishing and not creating life-long monopolies. The life times of copyright and patents must be way shorter as well. Everyone builds on something that came before. It's

TDD can be tedious at times, but if you do it, you quickly reap the benefits. It makes testing easier, it reassures you that you didn't break everything completely with a random change, and it keeps your API in check. And it makes more

nickpsecurity may expand on this, but there are many, many OS innovations dating back to the 60s, 80s, and 90s which haven't made it into the mainstream. Of all the things, I wish we would have gotten something of a combination of the

Unfortunately, if I read https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11727870 right, Moxie formulated that more clearly by saying they would only approve of copyleft reimplementations. Unless I'm misreading things, this confi

Got it. That looks like a bad digital image stitching job. Especially the misaligned fins. But the red lines are odd indeed.

This cultural reference I get even less than the first one, but I'll just ignore the references. I'm not sure if you're missing the context. This branch of the thread forked off me asking the same thing as another poster, nam

I don't understand the cultural reference and I'll assume it's irrelevant, but the Oracle vs Google saga made me very very cautious when it comes to clean room reimplementations of public bits, and if I were to earn money wit

You kinda repeat yourself here, and it's not really a response to my post here. I found the answer from a sibling post: https://twitter.com/moxie/status/730289041493483520 Moxie should use this incident to pr

So, https://github.com/WhisperSystems/libsignal-protocol-c is GPL3. If I implement haskell-signal and consult documentation and the code to understand the protocol but do not copy code, it's not clean room, but Op

If it's secret, it's not a real court. Even the founding fathers of the USA would disagree and they're kinda still fresh history-wise in terms of justice systems around the world.

Are you serious? Have you read what the FBI has done so far? It's one thing to get subpoenaed by a public servant of a real court, but it's reasonable to be afraid if FBI agents act like they want to serve her papers in person by

This makes more sense, but why is it not C++11's fault if compiler writers have a hard time keeping the compile time overhead in reasonable bounds? Compiler writers actually do not enable some optimization passes or cap some passes at
