jexcel is great, it has more features (sorting, formulas, colors, etc)... but those same features are not very performant with many (>1000) rows since each cell is a html table cell. datagridxl looks promising if you need to display lots

Data in cloud and probably on the device you're using right now is mainly only encrypted while sitting on the disk and when bouncing around the net. The difference here is that the data is also encrypted throughout its life - while in

So very sad to lose a hero, I was lucky to be crammed right next to him at Pershing Square in a very crowded group at the March for Science in Downtown Los Angeles a couple years ago. He was very friendly, I was starstruck. I wish I could h

You don't support Apple users on your website? You don't bother to fix breaking issues for any Apple device? I'm genuinely curious to know what industry you work in since that seems like a huge segment of visitors.

Maybe related — there was a Chrome bug regression that was recently fixed that rendered the thickness of font-sizes above a certain threshold incorrectly, large bold text wouldn't be bolded - https://bugs.chromium.org/p

Sounds nice, I like the minimalist look. But I think it would be a giant leap if the music was somehow related to what is being typed. Also it took a while to load, it could use a loading progress indicator — I thought it was broken and was

Thanks for this context, was very confused about what RStudio did. And was even more confused why datacamp considers RStudio a competitor... still don't think it makes sense but now I understand their motivations.

When I listen to music sometimes I start to taste a tanginess or sweetness in my mouth. Much the same way my mouth starts to salivate and feel strange when I imagine eating a sour lemon. I think that's pretty common? Is that related to

That's not pedantic, it's a good comment. I had the same thought when reading the article and wondered if others were wondering the same.

I'm not a great software engineer, but I find engineering a great tool to learn new subjects. For example I built a sheet music analyzer in the browser to learn music theory and it forced me to really understand the subject matter. I w

I really enjoy nodes for tasks that require immediate visual or audio feedback - making shaders in Blender, designing waveforms in Max, etc. But there are tasks that I find dead simple when done with code, such as translating a math formula
