In that entire page, it does not once tell me what FOSDEM is (at least on mobile). I can infer it's some sort of computing conference from the events, but that's about it.

I always love these sort of things. Here's the same for the US constitution: https://github.com/JesseKPhillips/USA-Constitution As a bonus, this one attempted to backdate the commits in a cyphered way (git dates a

Google Chrome now has tab grouping. In Beta, you can click on the group name and collapse the tabs. Based on their reload times, it seems chrome suspends the tabs in the background when you collapse the group.

I believe you're thinking of Corey Lewandowski, so no.

Can you give more details? What sort of group is this? Is it public or private? How large is it? How long has this been going on? What links are you trying to post that got blocked?

When I coached a programming team, I once had them algorithmically solve this problem for a N-star flag. The constraints were to find all possible combinations where the rows alternated in length by 1. It ended up being a great teaching exp

This site doesn't render properly on mobile. Many of the blocks flow off the screen to the left and right. I was intrigued, but like many projects, the first impression I got was of sloppy development unable to even test one of the mos

Ok, so heres the argument in other words: Gay people should be able to live their lives with the same rights and privileges of any straight person. I do not believe in similar protections for a company that exists to host and promote the vi

I belive you mean Bostock v Clayton Co, which was decided this summer and extended Title VII protections to LBGT individuals. Obergefell extended marriage rights to same-sex couples.

The difference here is that discrimination based on sexual orientation is prohibited under federal civil rights laws, so if you're going to bake a wedding cake for a straight person, you cannot refuse to do so for someone else because

You can kinda do that with the vimium plugin. Select a bunch of tabs and press "x", but it doesn't support visual selection of tabs.

This is a knife in the gut right now. I had listened to him on and off since 05 or so. Just recently, I rediscovered "The Mouse and the Mask" and have been humming the bars to Sofa King for the last week or two. RIP DOOM.

Upon a few moments of reflection, it's obvious to me I should just buy the 3rd wall paper both to see what I'm missing and to support this fine work. Thanks again!

Thanks for making this and for porting it to android! I changed phones about a month back and stumbled upon your wallpaper app by chance. It has made my homescreen such a delight these days as I never know what I'll see. Thanks again!

Issues like this are another reason Python should have a native switch...case control flow instead of trying to cram it into a chain of elifs or a dict. In other languages, calling a switch on an enum will cause the type checker to ensure t

Read the voltage drop across a high-value resistor at room temperature. There are random fluctuations proportional to the temperature and resistor value. You can use these fluctuations to generate unifromly distributed random numbers. http

I still do not see how any of these things are a poll tax. A poll tax is something that inhibits your right to vote by charging you money. For example, requiring a government-issued ID may be construed as a poll tax. Are you arguing that re

Can you please make the argument that licensing in general is a poll tax? This statement seems very outlandish to me and I cannot find any papers or articles to support it. The equal protection argument also seems incorrect to me. If this w

Facebook almost always has a long-term holdout group in experiments like this to make sure that any gains from the design change aren't just short-lived blips from the novelty factor that ultimately result in long-term regressions.

As someone who has taught and graded multiple coding courses, I've had students try to pull things like this off where they just change the formatting a bit and think they've pulled a fast one. This has resulted in many hard conve
