Don't live in the US, so doing my taxes is no reason to stick with Windows =)

I might. I've never been happy with the 'desktop' linux distros. Not the look/feel/functionality, just install/setup issues and the distro version upgrade hassle. I use arch linux for my dev work, but it seems

I've been using mostly windows (7) for the past years, with a sprinkle of linux VMs for running databases and such. Now, when upgrading, I think I'll buy a mac. I can't be bothered to deal with this crap any more. But on the

Don't think your conclusion holds - and that's actually something the author brings up. It might be quicker in time (not in the amount of instructions executed) to calculate something multiple times, or to do a more complex calcul

If they don't do the seat reservation behind a POST, or at least blacklist the reservation page in robots.txt, I have no sympathy.

That notice is typically in the footer, and a screen reader will reach the nav-bar before mentioning the TOS notice. Even for sighted people, the notice is often easy to miss - and this is by design.

Good! Now, the button should be a slightly different shade if the user is logged in. And it should be blue if the user is an administrator. And the customer requested that it shouldn't show up at all if the user lacks the 'foo&#x2

.NET builtin trim lets you specify which 'char' values to trim [1]. .NET is notoriously tied to UTF-16 (a char is 16 bit), and you have to handle surrogate pairs very carefully, but I can't really imagine that being any bette

Good point. The Cloudflare capthchas I've seen seemed to use Javascript, but maybe it's just incredibly good CSS. Interestingly, while a javascript calculation might leak more information to CloudFlare (since they might collect ot

I wonder why these anti-abuse systems don't use proof-of-work. Instead of a captcha, let the browser chug for 5 seconds, and then POST the solution in order to gain a temporary access cookie. Sure, this could be attacked - but not at s

It was very useful to me. It told me the author of this library doesn't know what a predicate is.

The SML standard defines a WideChar and WideString, that are compatible with the String type. A SML implementation could just say 'WideChar' = UTF-32 and WideString is unicode, and all source files are utf-8. I think that would be

by gnud 10y ago
I really like SML, but still havn't seen a good unicode solution here - which lets me use unicode in string constants in code, as well as convert data between encodings at run time. That's what's missing for me. So for now, F

"Who is correct isn’t important. What should be important is that browsers put consistency across themselves first." I saw that quote too, and thought that's a weird way to look at it. The other way to look at it, which makes

Inside Lazarus, go to the 'help' menu and select 'help'. There's quite a lot of documentation! There's also context sensitive help. Put the text cursor over a type name, like 'TForm' in the default co

Must be hard to keep the action and tuning good on that, after re-assembly?

... they trusted a polygraph more than the rest of the judicial process. That really doesn't say anything good about the 'normal' process, then.

If they were honestly worried about trademark, they would have asked him to put a 'Not affiliated with Kik interactive, inc.' in his readme. His project is still on Github. They weren't worried about trademarks, they wanted t

Yes, there are human beings involved here. The sort that contact you out of the blue and tell you "I don't want to be a dick", and then threaten to have "our trademark lawyers [...] banging on your door and taking down y

Well, I've had my desktop computer for nearly 5 years. Upgraded the ram once, and added a new hard drive. It still does everything I need it to do. I understand this is sad for Apple, but I don't see how it's sad for me?

No, it specifically applies to 'music, sounds, text or information that you make available or create ("User Content")'. I understand that's not how you use it just now. But that's what it says.

Just found the TOS while browsing. The link under "sign up" (leading to https://flat.io/legal ) was the one I referred to as broken. (...) you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free and perpetu

Would love to try this, I mean, absolutely love! But there's no mention of cost anywhere, and the link to the TOS is dead. So I'm not signing up just yet.

Really? The best thing about GOG for me is that I don't have to install yet another crappy client.

For this particular example, wouldn't this be best solved with a separate runlevel for "reboot into UEFI"? Stop all daemons, remount all normal filesystems read-only, remount UEFI RW, write variable and reboot.
