A month in south East Asia. Then another month simply learning something new. Get excited about programming again. Make programming your hobby again, and not just your job.

While definitely great proof of: 1. The author knowing a lot of the language's functional features (permutations, mapping, zipping, filters) 2. How powerful functional programming is when solving problems I find this type of code an an

This reads to me as an overreaction. Sure, it's important to be vigilant about the permissions you give apps, but it's also important to understand the underlying OS and permission layers. TLDR: If you're concerned about your

I'm concerned about the lack of authentication on this API. What's to prevent an attacker from modifying my booleans? just his ability to guess the guid?

Its very likely that a newer apartment would be priced higher than an older apartment. But that doesn't mean new apartments don't have an aggregate effect on the prices of other apartments. http://cityobservatory.org&#x

You can't judge pricing in a market that's very restrictive. Sprinkling a few higher density buildings in area with rapidly growing demand isn't going to be enough to lower prices.

It's 2016, and people still think that if someone moves into your neighborhood, someone else has to move out. Rising demand is great. It means people want to enjoy your neighborhood. You can either meet that demand by increasing supply

More concerned about the lack of https. Pirate bay might be legal in your country, but that doesn't mean you want snoopers logging your porn searches.

Great point. This is definitely nice work, and it looks like a great usage of existing tools. Did not intend to come off disregarding the effort.

It seems a lot of the magic behind this comes from Peerflix - a node.js library for streaming torrents. This is mostly a CLI wrapper for searching piratebay, parsing the results, and then streaming using peerflix. https://github.

Does V8 have easy conversion between V8 classes and std classes? converting a V8 string to an std string and back by first casting to a null terminated char array seems very cumbersome and error prone.

Be ultra careful when doing this. First of all - make sure to get, validate and store the buffer's length (ByteLength()) Secondly - GetContents() is only for temporary access to a buffer. if you store that pointer and use it later (&#x

Perhaps Portland can learn from SF's mistake, and actually allow massive building of new housing if there's a spike in demand.

True, you don't usually need the prologue to hook a function, but we're talking about hooking functions that might be called by another thread at the same time. If you just modify the instructions while another thread is running t

If you have a good idea and a team that can execute, seed money is still fairly easy - assuming you're actively seeking it, and you have enough proof that you can execute.
