If they're relying on a DNS server for resolution, they might not get the behavior they expect on an RFC compliant system. Any DNS query for a name ending with ".local." MUST be sent to the mDNS IPv4 link-local multicas

This was the 90's. They were 21" Sun CRT monitors, but spaced far enough apart (and staggered on either side of the table, if I remember right), that you could see enough of the person across from you to be distracting to me. The

For me, a bigger problem is having movement in my field of vision (I can't read text next to animated ads either). And having to stare at another person is especially annoying. We had this at the university computer labs (users facing

I live on the N/NE border in Seattle, but fortunately I'm on an avenue, so the entire street is N. It's an interesting system that I'd never seen before I moved here. Streets are East/West. Avenues are North/So

It might be an android thing. In iOS you can ask when you need it, and still use the app if you say no. I've gotten the impression that Android asks everything up front at installation time and doesn't install if you say no, but

The compiler for GWT has done a lot of this for years (and it's functionality might have fed into closure). It's arguably different because it compiles from Java to Javascript as a first pass. It then does a lot of full-program o

It looks like chrome is doing something similar. Each profile has a different value and each site has a different value, but the value is stable across restarts. Safari (tech preview or high sierra) seems to give a new value every time you

Project Gutenberg also has some tools and process for crowdsourcing text fixing that could be adapted. (If copyright issues could be dealt with.) https://www.pgdp.net

In school, RPN occasionally caused trouble for me as I could work through an entire problem (leaving values on the stack) without writing down any intermediate steps.

At university, I had someone accidentally lock their bike to mine with one of those. So I just unlocked and relocked it, using a similar process. (There was a lot of play in the wheels - it was a fairly cheap one.)

Yeah, that was my thought too. But I do have something growing in my back yard (in the fall) that is fairly similar to yellow chanterelle - probably jack-o-lantern. The gills are wrong, but I'd imagine that software to identify mushroo

Yeah, I suspected that, but it looked like there was a close brace and no open brace. (I only noticed because I was specifically looking at the braces to try to determine if it was PHP.)

by dunham 9y ago
Same here, because I knew they intersected and presumed it was a trick question. Technically, I believe it is neither valid perl nor PHP because it's missing an opening brace on one of the if statements.

I always presumed that they wanted the laptops in a separate bin because they were comparing them to a set of known images (of commercially sold laptops), but perhaps I'm giving them too much credit.

Yeah, profiling helps a little. It taught me that queries flush (and you can easily go n^2 from that if you're not careful). More recently, we've had n+1 issues (putting a printing breakpoint in EntityType.loadByUniqueKey helped m

We usually use farmed venison for burgers, I prefer it to beef. It's about $10/lb ground from the local butcher. More expensive than beef, but cheaper than eating out. That said, we only have burgers about once a month.

Yes, it is infuriating. I didn't even realize it was in the dev tools until today. I thought they'd just dropped the functionality altogether. The dev tools are nice, and I like using the multiple profiles for both dev (logging in

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing - a morse code speed key would be better. And, now that I think of it, a huffman code would help too.

They do (or did) something similar with the back end of GWT (globally sorting method definitions by length). But it's probably easier with GWT output (vs arbitrary js), because it has a well defined structure.

For testing/dev at work, I wrote a little go app that listens to SMTP on port 2525, collects mail into a boltdb, and presents it in a very simple web UI (port 7070) that lets you browse users and their mail. (A simple drill-down of lis

OAuth2 does indeed send a secret bearer as an "Authorization: Bearer" header, but OAuth1 does not. The FitBit stuff I recall seeing other day was OAuth1. It would look like oauth_token=XXX and oauth_consumer_key=YYY, along with o

This is how one of my professors described it to me back in college, inspiring me to derive my own solution to the Rubik's cube. (And later for the "Square One" cube.) And I think the general concept is easy to describe to a

Cloudflare handles SSL for a lot of sites. It decrypts everything and passes it along. For certain other sites, with malformed html, there is a bug that caused it to grab random data (headers and body) from memory and include it in the body

These guys were probably saved by using OAuth - there is a consumer secret (which the "_key" is just an identifier for) and an access token secret, both of which are not sent over the wire. Just a signature based on them. (The tim

OAuth1 doesn't send the secrets with the requests, just a key to identify the secret and a signature made with the secret. OAuth2 does send the secret, typically in an "Authorization: Bearer ..." header. The uber stuff that s

That's pretty close to what we were taught in my high school mechanical drafting class back in the late 80's. I remember being told that it was designed (e.g. big openings on the A) to survive being reduced to microfilm and back.

For road trips, we always just play mp3's off of our phone. (The car doesn't have aux in, so we actually use a FM transmitter dongle for the phone.) The stations in the US seem to have a _lot_ of advertisements, and as others have
