I had a similar thing happening to me. Friends were traveling and shared their photos on Instagram, so I decided to log in to my old account which I hadn't accessed in a few years. On the web page, it says "Your username or passwo

What do you mean by sync being hard to implement in Erlang? Simple synchronous requests can easily be implemented: Server ! {request, Request}, receive {reply, Reply} -> {ok, Reply} end. This is also the default

Would love a desktop version of this, to be able to edit bigger pictures. Currently, generating laptop desktop backgrounds is very slow on mobile devices. It's also hard to position the points exactly, and the result cannot be zoomed.

You most likely do. The hardware you use is probably manufactured under much more severe conditions that under those you work. And what about the raw materials required to produce that hardware? Some of those are probably mined under much m

This is the way it is intended by Apple. I made the same experience moving to a different country and changing the "nationality" of my Apple ID. When contacting customer support about all my missing purchases, they said that this

Judging from their FAQ, it seems that they encrypt voice end-to-end, but messages only between the client and the server: https://support.wire.com/hc/en-us/articles/203122500-Are-mes... They have features lik

On Chrome, I use the User-Agent Switcher extension [1] with the permanent spoof list to always load mobile Wikipedia when clicking Wikipedia links for exactly this reason. It's not so much that it is more beautiful, but that it is a lo

They've missed keyboard navigation completely. To be fair, there are shortcuts for many things, but it is still practically impossible to navigate the UI with the keyboard only. For example, ⌘1 takes you to the working copy, but it onl

In the same way an unencrypted telephone call is also like a postcard (or posting a tape), but we still have laws protecting that information flow, like the client attorney privilege. What we are seeing now is just a power grab from governm

Ah, cool. That clarifies things. I take it there is no way of smoothly combining Ansible host lists with being able to use pure, old SSH?

Just started out with Ansible. How do you efficiently SSH into all these hosts by name instead of IP?

There really isn't anything more to it than in Pid1 doing Pid2 ! MyMessage (that is the literal syntax in Erlang). The rest is taken care of by the Erlang VM. How do you figure out Pid2 (on :room2) from Pid1 (on :room1) then? Either su

To bring it back to a normal Erlang analogy level, the rooms are instances of Erlang VMs. Since Erlang has isolated memory between processes, the only way to ask one process in one virtual machine (reaching it either by its registered name

It is interesting that browsers have had settings for years related to font sizes, like preventing fonts smaller than a designated minimum size, yet colors and contrasts are still completely up to the web site owner. If you use Chrome, the

I usually make it a habit to spell out abbreviation the first time I use them and include the abbreviation in parentheses, like Transport Layer Security (TLS). Later, after the first introduction I can safely assume people know it, like TLS

Well, I always see it this way: With Amazon you never pay for the actual hardware, because that would be a rip-off. You pay for the service of not having to "throw out old machines", you pay for being able to start a machine with

Yes, Erlang has a "share nothing" concurrency model. You would need to send the data over to another process. There is one exception, which would come into play here, and that is binary data. Normal Erlang data ("Erlang terms

If you want to develop web pages, don't do Erlang. If you want to do web services, do Erlang. I've used both Ruby (Rails) and Python (trying to do concurrency with tornado, greenlets, gevent) and they just fell flat. You can do it

I read your discussion and really get all the points, and still I just think "don't make me think." The thing with Erlang is, I don't have to care about threads, pointers, libraries, re-entrant code, thread safety etc. I

I think they're mostly just ported. I've bought a few of the Square games on iOS and they were just the normal games with touch capabilities added on top of the old menus. No usability changes at all to accomodate modern touch pat

They don't mention client side encryption, only encrypted connection (naturally for SSL, and HTTPS for S3 I guess). If they don't support it, it would be a deal breaker for me.
