Hm. Confused by Node.js async fs operations in this context. Does it just not actually work asynchronously behind the scenes?

Haven't gone line-by-line on this one, but I like the new trend of "time limit" licenses. If I'm trying to start a business, something AGPL-ish might make sense in the short term to avoid bigger competitors copying every

I'm fascinated by this opinion. Is Hearthstone a video game? Desert Golfing? Good Sudoku? Words with Friends? Clash Royale? Angry Birds? The Arcana? Wii Sports? Pokémon Go?

You're correct about the mechanism through which that could happen — if the Supreme Court decided it so, they could certainly narrow the first amendment protections for hate speech. But it's incredibly unlikely that would happen a

Doing so would probably require amending the First Amendment, which I think would do more harm than good. But Germany seems to have implemented such a system without becoming a dystopian hellscape. Seems a pretty nice place to live.

Apt isn't going anywhere. What changed for you on the server side?

That's what I always assumed you got back when you create a MediaRecorder like so: new MediaRecorder(stream, { mimeType: 'video/webm;codecs=h264' }) Which is what this project does. Is it actually returning someth

Cool project! I've done similar things with Kurento acting as a WebRTC peer to proxy WebRTC --> RTMP before but this is a lot more lightweight. One thing I'd love to see at some point is a project that compiles FFMpeg's tr

This appears to use the MediaStream Recording API ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaStream... ) to produce a WebM H.264 stream, which can be sent to the WebSocket. The server then tra

I believe the first-party primary domain of the app will never have its data wiped — though the article could certainly be clearer on the point. What would be cleared in that case would be any other domains — if there's also a "

Okay, that makes sense - counter is third-party domains only. Thanks!

"Web applications added to the home screen are not part of Safari and thus have their own counter of days of use. Their days of use will match actual use of the web application which resets the timer." But said timer... does nothi

by iameli 7y ago
The only coherent interpretation I can think of is that accessing example.com in a home screen app doesn't reset the timer for example.com in Safari. And vice versa. But it's still really unclear whether that implies that home scr

And all of that made logical sense to me, but it wasn't until I took a job in the crypto space that I appreciated, viscerally, the extent to which it was happening. Dozens of Twitter accounts deriding other projects in the space as shi

How would we run out of domains? Register every single 253-character string as a domain name? Sounds expensive.

That's fair. I'm hoping this'll become less true over time as folks get used to there being lots of TLDs.

right, exactly - I'm ~200 times angrier at Comcast for their $22.7 billion in profits than I am at Verisign for their $100 million.

I have no issue with the study. Seems plausible. I do have an issue with, for example, the idea that a diversity program at a company constitutes a mode of social exclusion rather than an attempt to redress historical exclusion. But I seem
