I'm luckily, fairly good at thinking outside the box, but when I see content like this... WOW I guess a logical next step in the 2020's is to render a nice sky and fitting surroundings with AI.

I was surprised that many of the "professional" web de s don't test, don't even occur to them to install other browsers, like, for example, Firefox... Which is a shame, since FF dev Tools have a quite comfy tool for test

I have been using the new renderer since it was available as a hidden beta feature. Parts of rendering feel smoother but it's painful to watch how streets are redrawn. I also live in a very densely mapped area, which definitely affects

I wish OsmAnd had the rendering engine of OrganicMaps. That would be a killer app. Right now, osmand on my phone is virtually unusable. I slow down, and as if I were stepping on egg shells, I still try to use osmand because of its wikivoyag

Yes. I am using such adapter for many years now, every single device of mine are charged with the same cables. Headphones, keyboard, mouse, phones, portable speakers, iPad, android, simply everything. Quite convenient!

I lived in Adliswil, a couple streets away from him. When I learned about the fact that this Legend lives just nearby, I was like a child before Christmas, planning to meet up with him and thanking him for vim. I never did. I hope I would h

that's why I find it refreshing to read... Books. As opposed to blogs. My feed reader now has easily a thousand unread entries, because I'm also overwhelmed with their nature of "vehicle for advertising"* (sometimes adve

FWIW I have the exact opposite experience: people around me, who are _NOT_ in tech, keep talking about AI and lately especially ChatGPT, whereas serious (not only senior) IT professionals don't really. Besides the science behind it, cu

Although I use the term "virtualization" the same way as you want to understand it, containers are still called "virtualization", as this wikipedia page suggests: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-lev

Thanks for this. Looks like it's going deep into "client side". Thing about "Google.com" (I used Facebook/Gmail) is that when server side stuff is of interest (as it was for this cloud engineer job), then I als

That's what I do (instead of curl, with a browser). MANY super cool convos spun out of this question (interviewed around 60 people). One of them never actually got to the network request part bc we went DEEP into event handlers in a GU

Just a heads up, on mobile Firefox (Android) I opened the increment/decrement example and after pressing any of the buttons there is a 500ms very long lag. I suppose this is not expected Edit: nevermind, its expected in slow connection

this is the hardest of all. When it comes to men's day, indeed all day is celebration of 20% higher salaries that men receive in average. OTOH, introducing men's day sounds fair as then everyone is treated equally (in this aspect)

Good that there are farmers like your family. By no means did I want to point to any individual's family, and certainly didn't say that this is the only way. For the rest, unfortunately, as any mammal, cows only start producing mi

Well they are still forced to reproduce so that their offsprings can killed quickly (and sold as pricier calf meat) so that their milk can be used for making butter you eat on an other continent. I wouldn't mix in "ethics" he

I hope we get an answer to this. When I had to use it on my first visit to China, I couldn't possibly believe this is an app that people are actually using day to day. Slow, sluggish, graphical artifacts, NPEs. Then I learned that the

I happen to have an HP inkjet printer which I use every three or so months, and never had the dried ink problem. Always works reliably, including the display ink level function. I think this "the ink dries up!" mantra is either ou
