You already can, just load up a crosh window and enter your chroot. Take your pick of vim or emacs or whatever other console editor. Or, if you're enterprising, you can run a window manager on the same X display and use any GUI editor,

So this is a "thin" client? I assume it doesn't bootstrap the whole blockchain, but uses a central server to get up to date? How similar is this to Electrum?

That sounds like an interesting use case, to have a browser API whereby an extension can disable other extensions from having access to certain domains. Perhaps you should submit a proposal and/or start a discussion on the appropriate

That's pretty dirty. If you have no legitimate claim to a trademark, just buy an existing slightly related trademark and use that!

I prefer for loops because they have easier to read and debug exception stack traces. And typing for(i=;...) is calming for me.

Agreed, this is a great reference and high level low level overview. Having though of doing the exact same thing, it's nice to have a guide in case I ever decide to do so. Thanks!

You are right that adding new permissions will disable the extension until it is re-enabled. But android has a very similar behavior. Still, I feel that using optional permissions and pointing out to the user why they would want enable the

The problem is with users. They ignore the scary "access to all websites" dialogs and install extensions. Sites like pinterest have extensions that request these permissions, when they don't even need them. There's a way

My landlord uses PayLease. It lets me setup autopay and stuff. $2 per payment, not too bad. Just low enough where I use it instead of mailing a check. If you use a credit card you pay something just over 1% of the payment, which almost canc

They are definitely better, but not for the reason you might expect. The best part about having a non-qwerty keyboard layout is the frustration on peoples faces when they try to use your computer. Especially if it's a repeat performanc

It even runs on my ARM Samsung chromebook pretty well. Props to SiPlus ( https://github.com/SiPlus/WebQuake ) who ported pretty much line-for-line netquake from the original id source code release.

Potentially, raw socket access. This could be a server as well as a client. But I need to do some more work porting it.

I personally love seeing the yield/await syntax before a function call. I don't like using gevent in Python because I feel like it's hiding important information from me. I much prefer actually being explicit about what the p
