What a nice feeling of accomplishment this guy must have, while chilling on his yatch. No seriously, this is an horrible story. I hope thy all end in jail. Karma will take care of the rest.

Even more popups, choices and waste of energy if you ask me :)

The idea was noble, but the law was poorly done. If you want to have a Remember me checkbox (=writing a cookie with a session id), you'll have to get the user autorization. It effectively protects from nothing, it justs makes more popu

I wonder if they have a legal base for this in Europe. This was severly frowned upon on the Debian Bugtracker last week. Thanks to the Debian team for standing up! Context: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9724409

Thanks. From a quick glance, the added value seems to be a notification system and a context-menu. [1] Does it worth it ? (not a regular whatsapp-web user). [1] https://github.com/Aluxian/WhatsApp-Desktop/blob&#x2

Is it a wrapper around https://web.whatsapp.com/ ? If yes, what's the advantage over opening a browser tab ?

More than the love of cars, I think one other important factor is that US cities have been built and developed around car-first traffic for the last 80? years. Which makes it much more optimal to drive around. Now if you consider the econom

I don't understand either. It seem like Google thinks people only speak the language from where they connect. Ex: Youtube keeps suggesting me German videos even if all my accept-language headers and settings are set to en-US.(I'm

I remember the days when most of the web was written like that. Thanks god it is (for the most part) not the case anymore :)

I didn't realize the c++11 standard could make it possible to get rid of moc. Defenately better this way around ;) I can't wait to see this happening upstream for Qt5.

I fail to understand either, but they say: > CopperSpice has been modified to remove moc, the Qt meta object compiler. Moc was removed to simplify the build process, allow CopperSpice to be a standalone library, increase run time perform

More than survive, I'm persuaded it can innovate by taking the best of both worlds.

You cant. What if in your example ABC already had a balance of 1BTC (totaling 4) ? It's undefined.

I don't think you can compare them. The web feels clunky but if you think about it, it's the ultimate sandbox. Hey, it even supports scriptable accelerated 3d graphics :) So yeah, two different things for two different purpose. Th

Cause it would add an extra layer to my solution, which might be more complicated to get right than just bare C.

Simple example: Player positions in a FPS. Would you rather wait for a transmission of the missing position update 1 sec ago or just forget about it and continue processing the next one ? In this context, you'll prefer the second optio
