My clipboard often has private stuff in it, unrelated to the site I'm visiting. I don't like the idea that clicking on a button (like "add comment" on HN) would gives a site potential access to what's in my clipboar

I love SVG as a format, but don't have a lot of experience with SVG animation. Could the animating javascript loop be redone using SVG animations?

Also a TDI owner (2009 Jetta), and I'm pretty sure that this patch is going to be mandatory to pass smog, and it's going to suck the fun out of the car. I feel complicit in tax fraud for taking the credit these vehicles got, and I

For about the last ten years, most of the diesel fuel in the US has been ULSD (Ultra-Low Sulfur), and in 2007 the EPA tightened emissions standards for new vehicles. If the VW vehicles made after 2009 met those emission goals, they would b

Carder may be surprised at the "hullabaloo" now because he released the results 18 months ago, but I have had a hell of a time finding any written documentation of their technique. Was their research limited to observing the effec

The $459 rail pass mentioned in the article seems like a good option (15 days, 8 stops), but you have to be in love with the idea of taking the train.

Taken without any external context, this release is nonsensical, probably because they don't bother to say why they're shutting down or what the new opportunity is. "Looking forward, we feel this is best seized by taking

Perhaps the correct response would be to ban circuit boards and items containing circuit boards from school grounds. This would be quite educational, as everyone learned the hard way that cars, clocks, cell phones, loudspeakers, and so fort

I agree with your point, but to the user it can feel like a violation of privacy, and at that point it's not particularly important who's doing it. Whether it's the faceless search engine or the faceless retargeting company

Given the date and the description of blocking ad banners specifically, my guess is that they were talking about an ad-blocking proxy like Internet Junkbuster. These proxies weren't as easy to install as browser extensions, but they di

If it's $100 you walk away, and if it's $100,000, you're less likely to. The problem is, it's not quite a sunk cost -- you may still have a chance of recovering it. But that hope is also what the person who owes you ma

Moving to a 14-day view, what accounts for the spike in ecdhe-ecdsa-aes128-gcm-sha256 and ecdhe-ecdsa-aes128-sha? Did these switch to preferred defaults in some major browsers?

The per capita GDP of the U.S. is around $50,000. The median household income is also around $50,000. The mean household income is around $70,000. There's enough on one side of the distribution to fill in the other, if we decided as a

Proposition 13 also promotes the holding of land in legal vehicles, like Title Holding Trusts. This saves big property owners a lot of money when it comes time to sell, but even seems to make sense for individuals. Near my old neighborhood

Utah's taken a different approach, and it seems to have worked pretty well, though I'm not sure how many urban cities want to (or can) follow that lead. http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-utah-housing-first-2

The precision comes from custom software and hardware we've created, including a robot on the ground that's equipped with a camera and laser rangefinder to guide the drone along a pre-defined path. That's relative position,

It's peculiar to me that I've heard so much attention on almonds as a water-intensive crop, and so little about beef, given that they're comparable in terms of water cost per pound or per calorie, and both are major Californi

I think you got a room key if you stayed at the conference hotel(s) and ordered as part of the conference block. Paris gave them out, at least. The hotel deal was offered on the site, and it was decent. Average $120/night?

I will plead ignorance here. In Latino cultures, the individual is not allowed to refuse a hug from a stranger? Or it's considered to be extremely rude and insulting to do so? Please lay it out for me, in as much detail as you'r
