My experience with Generators have been mostly with Redux/Saga, and thus I am now of the opinion that they are the superior choice for asynchronous operations for the sole benefit of testing. With Promises you can test the value and th

Clinton also lost 2 million democratic votes that switched to third party compared to the 2012 election so let's not pretend that fake news is her downfall, considering it was the media bias that gave her an edge in the primaries.

That's very cool. Could you elaborate on the method in which the key accepts the challenge? I was under the impression that a Yubikey only acted as a USB keyboard - which ensured it's security by isolation.

It has two modes. If you short press it, it will generate a one time password. A long press will output a static password. Both modes can be configured optionally.

It looks nice and all, but Razer's customer support and driver software is abysmal - that cannot be overlooked.

That's like harming the Pope to get back at God. AdNauseum doesn't hurt advertising networks, it hurts publishers. When they get banned for click fraud, the network keeps the money.

Because Google is not "the man" in this scenario that you're sticking it to - it's the website owner whose content you're consuming. Google gets paid either way, and AdNauseam is pennies on their dollar. Webmaster h

A maxed out iMac would depreciate within 5 years, and any particular part would render your entire system unusable for week(s). Three years later and Apple adds a new feature that for the slightest reason requires an entire hardware upgrade

This is where the Hackintosh market has thrived. For desktop users, size of the machine is not nearly as important as raw. computational. power. The iMac was good in its time but that time was half a decade ago. The Mac Pro was supposed to

Apple hardware has fallen so far behind I've become a Hackintosh convert. If you're paying for top of the line build quality, you shouldn't have to sacrifice for last-gen hardware for the sake to be 1mm thinner.

I gave up Soylent a couple weeks ago because of how many carbohydrates it has (33g per bottle). I would drink a bottle and the hunger would subside, but two hours later the appetite was much stronger. Since preparing my own meals, choosing
