Must admit this was my question as well. It seemed from the post that the browser was still working but the extensions couldn't be installed. Not ideal but seems like a weird response. Is the point that there should be a separate sourc

2 to 3 did come up at one point, yes. At the time I chose 2 but nothing much came of the choice since I didn't continue with python at the time, and nothing much came from what I was working on either. The updates to 3 have a bit more

Soon after going through the python environment selection dance (pyenv fwiw, although sometimes conda), I went through the python binary tool selection dance and ended up on pyinstaller. However I eventually abandoned hope that I was on a f

Anyone got a good reference for pratical implications of floating point vs fixed point in measurement calculations (especially timing measurements)? Gotchas, rules of thumb, best practice etc?

Agree to disagree I guess, but I have read a lot of things on Twitter that I found interesting and useful (amongst a lot of crap, obviously), and this I didn't like.

I guess you found it funnier than me, but making points seemed like a huge part of that article.

Agree that the caffeine 'rules' about not drinking it after a certain time of day don't apply to everyone. I experience increased sleep difficulties no matter what time of day I have it. Interestingly it does not seem to affe

The only thing more annoying than having a wire between my ears and my device is having a bad connection between my ears and my device.

I liked the premise of this article, but I didn't see much use for anything after it started talking about how to achieve it. ...Except the 'personal stack overflow ' idea. Because so many of the answers to my questions are t

Nice article. Now I'm inspired to go back and reread Paul Theroux's travel books (mostly by rail except for the one where he walks around the coast of the UK, I think).

Haven't read that, might take a look. Off the top of my head here a couple of books also with interesting related themes: Altered Carbon - Richard K Morgan (Also probably my all time favourite book along with the other two in the serie

This article doesn't really address all of the assumptions, culture, psychology etc. wrapped up in the concept of a person dying. What exactly do we mean by that? Without considering that, all of the other considerations will be incomp

Same. In fact the obvious question in the absence of photographs is how blue they really were.

As the wikipedia article notes, you don't get much energy from lightning because it's such a short duration. Interesting for research though.

I think it was a request from a French police investigation to provide the data, which makes the Swiss government ordering PM to reveal user details seem very generous IMO. If I were Swiss I would probably want a bit more restriction on pot

That certainly puts a different light on how I was looking at the topic.

Seemed weirdly specific to me, but I guess in certain areas with lots of drug sales or whatever it could be more generally applicable.

Would be good to have some other sources for this story. So a Swiss company has been apparently forced to provide details of a user who is under investigation by police in another country? I'm curious about the way that actually works,

Well it will be interesting to see what is actually implemented. The reduced hours trial was an SNP election promise earlier in the year, and the recent news is of a report getting published rather than any official statement from the Scott
