This "experiment" looks like a way to enforce DNS / caching services / mail services to store their data inside Russia. Which makes it easier for anyone with just a letter from the court to get it.

Btw since about 3 years I'm using lots of gmail filters ( like around 200+ and counting ) to separate mails to different labels and it kinda works. I have lots of labels for each service that I use. They all include unicode symbol char

I was looking for a comment like this. I also assume the decision was influenced by GitHub which put RoR at it's high as well as what the original author ( Dmitriy ) decided to do so. Anyway, why they stick to RoR these days is probabl

It's not like the companies are not in politics these days. I rarely see laws, which are not made by lobbies representing the richest people in the world. Here in EU Monsanto lobbied a controversial regulation about a weedkiller ( Roun

What is worrying in addition to the global economy slowing down is the volatility and how the stock market closed 2018. I believe a new crash is imminent and I hope this time we have our seatbelts on.

Totally agree. I believe that having a specific category of tax for a specific type of company is something that goes hand in hand with nationalizatio. What is worrying is that these companies probably doesn’t have lobbies in all world wide

I spend 2-3 days around the holidays to revive an old HP laptop with a Debian desktop distribution. I had problems with hibernation / suspend, but what was the show stopper for me was that there is still no smooth scrolling on Linux. [

The solution that TC39 voted is based on requirements that can only be satisfied by having the ugly `#`. Namely they voted for encapsulation / hard-private [#33] as well as comparing private properties of two classes [2], which as a re

My best case scenario would be for Chromium codebase to be donated and governed by a board of non-profit organisation ( why not WHATWG ), which includes the major players in the field. Doing this would be far more safe in terms of having at

I’ve been a heavy user of FoxPro [1] back in time. I would really love someone to make a better version of it. Although these days you have Airtable [2] and Ninox [3] they are having different user base than good old FoxPro. 1: https:&#x2F

As much as I love unix philosophy and tools that follow it, I would point out that using the build tool that comes with the language is usually the better option. Nobody would use make instead of maven [1] with Java for example. Ruby uses R

My bet is that Angular pushes for using TypeScript too much, which makes you wonder where to start. On the other hand ReactJS & Vue work with TypeScript, but are not designed to embrace it. I've seen lots of questions about Angular

It's almost everywhere the same for remote gigs. I guess a way to "trick" that system is to find a remote gig as a tourist and then go back where you want to live originally.

Is there any benefit of using hooks with stateless components versus just having a class component? Can't reusability come via abstract components, instead of hooks?
