It seems like it will do more than just decline payment: "If you want, the app will also send an actual legal notice of cancelation to the service."

Any tips for what settings to change to prevent the destructive behavior you mentioned?

I use pass as well, along with a dmenu/rofi script.

I wish that there was a way for Luakit / Qutebrowser to support extensions from the major browsers. Every time I use one I love it initially but then find myself desperately wishing for uBlock Origin and my password manager extension.

I believe it would reduce the import duty on the devices manufactured in India.

I originally thought it was because they were waiting for the official announcement at the RSA conference before they released the source code but I guess that wasn't it considering it still took them some time.

What kind of "business reports" did these things process? I'm curious what application for your typical business was high value enough to be worth all this complexity and cost.

I just finished the book "Where Wizards Stay Up Late" about the early history of the internet and I highly recommend it. It covers the invention of packet switching, ARPANET, ethernet, email and a lot of stages the "internet

Their design had many overlapping coils which dynamically could be activated. This design would allow you to place the multiple devices on the mat in any orientation.

It has been requested since at least 2014 [0] and it just sounds like it isn't going to ever be a feature of Syncthing. The ability to have untrusted nodes is the one feature that has kept me using Resilio Sync. [0] - https:/&#

That wasn’t their point. These are global services and many of them are written and controlled by people who aren’t under the authority of Australian law.

I’m never dropping the Fizzbuzz style problem. It has absolutely blown me away the number of people who market themselves as senior people who can’t perform the most simple or basic coding tasks. No fancy algorithms. No obscure data structu

I'm genuinely curious how they test their conclusions with something like this. The 35 year old theory seems equally as likely as the threat-simulation theory. What has made threat-simulation supplant other theories on this topic?

The slide deck comes to this conclusion, at least for now. Rather, he discusses a hybrid approach of writing certain modules / drivers of a C-based kernel in Rust so it can be done a little bit at a time.

What were these communication channels the CIA was using that was being indexed by Google? Some public forum or something?

I believe Apple does something similar. There were only a few whitelisted Qi chargers which the iPhone X would negotiate with for fast(er) charging at launch. You couldn't take any old higher wattage Qi charger and get the increased c

That's not an accurate summary of Damore's motives, or the reasons for firing him. What is then?

For those hourly workers, Amazon plans to replace its RSU grant program with a direct stock purchase plan by the end of 2019. The net effect, the company says, will mean "significantly more total compensation" for the workers.

The one killer feature I wish Syncthing had was untrusted peers like Resilio has. There has been an issue[0] open since 2014 but I guess there are still major challenges to this feature. It would be great for me to be able to specify a cer

I really struggle with FF's scroll acceleration. I suppose it is just years of using Chrome but the scroll behavior and inertia when I scroll using the trackpad just feels painfully "off". I realize this is something that i

In another change, Amazon will phase out its Restricted Stock Unit program for order fulfillment and customer service employees who are paid hourly. Those workers currently receive shares of stock if they meet certain conditions. But the c

Apparently they do considering they hadn’t submitted their own reexamination request of the patent in question that inevitably led to Waymo dropping the patent claim.

I'm impressed that the random engineer was willing to put up $6k of his own money to challenge the patent, despite not benefiting from the decision in any way.

I'm using libinput. It seems fine to me. No trackpad has come close to my MBP trackpad. However, this one is fine for my purposes. I will say that I'm not a heavy trackpad user though. I use a tiling window manager and use vi

I can't speak to the X1 Extreme but I use the X1 Carbon 6th Generation and it runs Linux great. Initially, there was an issue with S3 sleep but Lenovo addressed that with a firmware update. Lenovo also recently joined the Linux Vendor

It is better now than it used to be. In the early days the effects they would add were so heavy handed. I used to feel like every 2-3 seconds some audio effect clip was playing.

The main thing that I miss when using Qutebrowser is extensions. On Chrome I rely on 3 extensions: 1Password, uBlock Origin and Vimium. I obviously don't need Vimium on Qutebrowser. I could possibly get by without 1Password if I swit

The journal article by the Shazam creators titled, "An Industrial-Strength Audio Search Algorithm"[0], was one of the first CS papers I ever read. It was very easy to follow and I remember even making a personal utility that impl
