That's the difference between learning software engineering as a profession, and coding as a tool in your tool belt, or hobby. I think everyone would benefit from knowing some amount of coding, just like everybody should know some cook

Found this when looking for something resembling an open standard for payments online. Preferably something that included Shipping Adresses and contact information, so that you don't have to fill out anything anymore. Just authorize a

Seeing all those water routes in Germany, made me want to get a house boat.

Wow, there is some really cool stuff in there. Love how you can immediately see the improvement over time by scrolling through them in some of them. I can't commit to doing something every day right now with uni and work. I've tri

From a selfish point of view, I care more about the benefits to me brought by Firefox having a bigger market share and Mozilla having more influence on the development of the web, than the benefits brought to me by other people looking at a

He keeps calling this a false positive. It's not. Easylist is a list of ads. That is an ad. The ad is listed on the list of ads. He seems baffled by the idea that someone could be against the concept of advertising in general.

Ad blocking on android really is Firefox's killer app. I'm surprised it isn't more popular just because of this.

I've been looking for a plaintext format for formulas that is both a markup language and a logical encoding that can be evaluated. AsciiMath seems focused on the markup part, but I had never heard of it before and it looks promising fo

OK, I'll be sure to keep varying it up, like the other people on here pushing their agenda.

This is a stance I can accept from someone working in advertising. This weird "advertising isn't that bad, actually" I cannot.

No strawmans and hyperboles here. Just actual honesty. I know your industry isn't very used to it.

It's not like that at all.

Careful, the mask is slipping.

Your stance of special pleading for a manipulation industry with a massive surveillance apparatus is more extreme than mine, who thinks that is bad and shouldn't exist. You just package it in nicer wording.

This is the best reply to that response so far, and pretty much the only one that doesn't miss my point. Thanks for writing it.

I stand by my statement.

Going to keep saying it under every post that is relevant. The ad industry is evil. Both in its current form and by definition. The sooner it dies, the better we are all off.

The algorithm already existed I just implemented it in js with a node server.

My Bachelor Thesis was implementing an operational transformation algorithm for tree structures (JSON objects) and evaluate it. Always thought about going back to it and build it into a usable application.

Its purpose is having a communication protocol, so simple anybody can implement it themselves. If your modern internet is incapable of allowing for this, it kind of sucks.

I have come to the conclusion that the problem is a pretty fundamental one we have in tech. You no longer agree with a person to something. Everything is a platform that aims to function with as little human involvement as possible. But the

The NYT never calls it "open source". That is an invention of this article.

"Open source" is what this sub-blogspam level article chose to call it. The NYT called it "Releasing our materials". https://open.nytimes.com/how-we-helped-our-reporters-learn-t...

While I do agree that this person's attitude towards security is a little too cavalier, I also disagree with your characterization that his problem with TLS is that it is hard. Gopher is designed as a very simple protocol any programme

If it is in the landlord agreement in Germany, that part of the agreement is void. Such a thing is against German law.
