I don't have an electron microscope and I wouldn't know what to look for. I see your point that we do need to implicitly trust the company at some level, but what's upsetting is we want to encourage the widest possible audien

Even if power use is a minor concern for desktops, it would be good to program with energy consumption in mind :> Network utilization, CPU usage, memory, disk usage, energy consumption. Lots to focus on...

Maybe they're deciding how many humans they should spare in the upcoming war. I imagine the puzzles garner little sympathy.

I'm actually of the opinion that when we can't scale smaller we will then scale horizontally/laterally. More transistors, larger chips. We have bought so much physical space going smaller and smaller - and I think a lot of pe

I would really be interested to know why we need a special syntax for tail calls. (genuinely curious) I'm from Lua originally and we've had tail calls forever... why would you point them out? It should be obvious: return wat()

I hate to play Devil's Advocate but accuracy can be important. Geoip means they can serve me offers for businesses in the same city, but I'd [almost] love it if I were served offers for a taqueria down the street from my browsing

I kind of worry about service providers also being content producers while simultaneously coercing consumers into agreeing to contracts with binding arbitration. Judge, jury, and executioner?

I say again: Javascript can learn many things more from Coffeescript. Coffeescript's future is diminished, presently (hah) - but ES6 only picked up a handful of magical features.

TypeScript "won" because certain folks will happily trade some coherency for more complexity. Types (can) be helpful.

Friend wrote this a long time ago when he was a young C++ coder. It's hosted on another friends' Github but the author is John Brooks, the author of Ricochet. https://github.com/rburchell/fastdup :-)

> You cannot learn from your enemy without invasive action, and you cannot test your capabilities without constantly attacking your adversaries... I'm sorry but this just sounds unethical and wrong. So much can be learned passively

I think it's important to remember that Array::map() and Array::filter() construct new Arrays (even if the old one is quickly "lost" and collected). It's probable v8 sees this and does some trickery to make use of the e

It's scary seeing reality start to match 1984, but scarier still seeing new avenues of surveillance come to light that Orwell couldn't have predicted. Orwell didn't write about FitBits or Chromebooks.

What really pisses me off are the posts about Coffeescript being supplanted by ES6 like it's a complete substitute. Array comprehensions are just one example of what JS folks are still missing out on.

I hope someone sticks a couple hundred FOIA requests in that hole they speak to the people from. Hold them accountable: "What did the FBI get out of this?"

That's awesome! :D To me it just seemed silly that we'd continually upgrade to get more dedicated circuitry for things like low-power video decoding. I know programming an FGPA still wouldn't be as efficient as it could be,

I would fucking love to have an FGPA included with the newest Intel procs or something. :D Kinda looking forward to lowRISC with minion cores, though - if we ever ditch x86 for games.

I think if I were using Linux I'd prefer an option I can specify in modprobe.d to disable signature verification for the kernel module handling this (at my discretion). Or would this be at like layer 7? :>

I wonder how they decided spending money on this would be a good investment. They must know how the internet works. What specifically were they paying for that made it worth it? Keeping references to the incident away from their Facebook pa
