I remember writing LUA scripts to alert people of certain encounter mechanics between boss attempts when my guild was among the US top 20 or so. The "boss mod" addons eventually caught up, but when you were among the first to get

Those are triggered for before the fold images, I primarily use them for above the fold content to try and get as close to immediate loading for the user. That way they can interact with the site quickly if they aren't interested in th

I had a bad experience with Gatsby too. I am fond of the Gatsby-Image plugin for an image heavy website because it will generate all the images you need for responsive sizes, plus webp, plus a blurry preview. The downside of this is that th

If this feature boosts productivity to a large extent perhaps it would finally be a reasonable trade-off for having an Electron-based editor?

I'm assuming there is some ML model running on-device which can detect whether or not the hold music is over. When features like this are rolled out they almost never mention: a) Battery usage b) Heat When I use my phone to record a vi

Is it common for tech industry folks to advocate political violence? I see it often on Twitter, not sure if it's an anomaly or if this is a commonly held view.

Oh interesting. Is there a benchmark chart or something like that where I can review the performance of something like YOLOv3 across cards?

If I have a really remote location and I need to do on-premises inference, am I better off buying one of the gaming GPUs or are they far behind the T4, etc.?

When I see this I treat the first decade as pointless to think about because it's childhood. 10-20 I had to finish school, went to college. 20-25 was very sub-optimal for me, but 25-35 has been quite good.

In theory if they do ARM macbooks and ARM phones and ARM tablets, they pave the way for merging iOS and macOS which has great potential because app developers can basically maintain a single codebase and use the features of the development

As a developer I've been quite happy with the Linux desktop experience. I only ever use Windows for games. I have a Macbook Pro, which I bought for the combination of weight and hardware but frankly the experience has not been good. Th

Seems like the goal is to ensure a specific election outcome then, and the narrative about hate etc. is just a cover.

Sure - but they can still participate in society. Why shouldn't they? A klansman like Robert Byrd turned his life around. This is after Al Gore's father and he filibustered the civil rights act. Byrd went on to mentor Hillary Clin

Do you ever run into issues with puppeteer scripts where you do waitUntil: networkIdle2 and every 10-15 page loads it just sits there forever? There's a timeout parameter that you can pass too, but it seems to do nothing. I seem to hav

Open the image in a new tab then you can zoom-in as much as you want. imgur is not showing the full zoomed in version

Yep, which is generally why I can't see a good argument for not using it. I was hoping to see some here but it seems to be a consensus view.

Is there anyone notable using it in production?

I guess it depends on what you build. At the scale of GitHub and Twitter or Shopify there are probably significant challenges caused by said bloat.

It's the default and you can opt-out. If you're interested in front-end performance, having a webpack build pipeline for your frontend assets is quite useful, especially if you want to leverage libraries like react or vue and buil

You could use a few DigitalOcean VPS for your rails app server and pay a lot less than the on-demand pricing that the GCP/AWS/Azure folks will charge.

How is the ecosystem? For example - if I want to add auth, social login, profile picture and admin dashboard CRUD, are there mature packages that can be leveraged for these features?

In your experience, is there good resource for discovering the "de-facto" hex packages for a particular requirement - I end up Googling things like "Phoenix paperclip equivalent" and then evaluating all the various ones.

The obvious performance and bloat overhead with RoR aside, I have yet to see a framework and ecosystem that lets you have a programmable web application up and running with typical features in comparable time. For shipping new products or t

My physics knowledge is quite poor, but I've always wondered if it was possible to use the rotation of the earth as some kind of alternator in conjunction with an orbital station. Is that idea fundamentally ignorant? Or is it something

If the climate is such that the employees are so passionate about politics, is it at all possible that zero employees have their thumb on the scale in terms of using their position to nudge towards their desired election result? That seems
