Oh man, that reminds me of Satellaview. In the mid-to-late 90s, they would broadcast games to Super Famicom consoles. I'm pretty sure they could deliver real-time audio streams (voice acting) via SoundLink as well. https://

Can't you go direct to a brand's site for shoes, if you already know what you want? For marketplaces/browsing, there are sites like ASOS, Gilt, Yahoo! Japan, eBay, etc. You can also browse any department store's online s

If you're lucky, you can get around that by requesting the desktop site. Would love an add-on/extension for mobile browsers that stops sites from injecting links to the app store.

Practically, it's quite common to not immediately know the divisor. In cases where the divisor is initially unknown but takes an imperceptible amount of time to compute it's better to render 0%. Otherwise you might get a flash of

This is good advice but ignores moderate to severe social anxiety, depression, and many things in between. You're totally right that the worst case here is that you lose a few hours and maybe meet people you don't click with, but

There are a few reasons why it's probably not entirely Smyte's fault. Given that Smyte comms dropped off over the past month, as another commenter mentioned, there might not have been anyone around to warn the users. And if you&#x

Really disappointed when I see these kinds of scare tactics. Compliance (or at least a good-faith attempt at compliance) is quite easy for small/new projects. I'm willing to bet that courts aren't out to make an example of ev

Also want to point out that stacking work on an unreviewed branch isn't a terrific idea, either. I've been asked to review PRs that totally missed the mark, only to find out that there were already a dozen more branches relying on

I don't see why they would. Notepad is great if you want to do something really quickly w/ plaintext, and the fact that it doesn't really do anything else is the best part IMO. If you want nicer formatting you can use WordPad

To be fair there are other ways of solving that problem. If you're worried about class overlap, you can define unique/hash-based classnames on build with css-loader. If you're still worried about aggressive stylesheets destro

I like the cheeky z-index val, but I'd use the max supported value if you want this to work with apps that have that cranked way up. And you mentioned building out more tools to help diagnose specific problems -- when the radar goes re

"Humans are not going to die out" is very short-sighted. Sure, in the past half-century we've gone from room-sized computers to self-driving cars, and we've seen similar progressions in medicine and other fields. So it m

There are different methods of schooling! Granted, they're more work for the parent, usually costly, might not work with a normal 9-5 schedule, and a bunch of other potential problems. But if you have the resources, you can look for wh

On that note, I wonder how many people might disagree with the bill's heavy-handedness but don't want to be seen as "opponents" to something like FOSTA.

This goes both ways. Articles aren't always 100% trustworthy either, and in that case a commenter might just as well offer a valid counterpoint or correction(s). As with anything, be reasonable. If you're really interested, then u
