But the problem with the Mac is that the OS has become actively worse in recent years. They could have literally not updated it at all in the last decade or so and the system would be better than it is today. The same is true for the hardwa

This is a bit offtopic and I apologise in advance for that. However, I felt the need to comment on the assumption that an application that is only 5 years old would imply that it uses a tech stack that no one would care about. How is it tha

It is. But the difference is that people's jogging runs and workout sessions don't typically create CO emissions on the scale of entire countries.

It's even more ironic considering cryptography isn't even needed for a blockchain. All you really need is a hash function.

The idea is not terrible, but when the kernel module is so unstable it brings down the build machines with a kernel panic, I'd say the execution was somewhat lacking.

Ice never used Bitkeeper so I can't say if the statements he made are true or not, but arguing that something is good juts because a lot of people use it is most definitely not a valid argument. The computing world is full of absolutel

What do you mean when you say "look at the file view". I read that as just looking at an annotate view and then find the changelist that the change was part of. However, this is something every single version control system can do

I've never used Clearcase, but I worked for Sun around 2000 and one of the things I did was analysing kernel dumps of Solaris. If we saw the Clearcase kernel module you can be sure that that was going to be the root cause of the crash.

Actually, it's the other way around. The credit card company, and by extension the merchant, have to prove that's your scribble. Here's one way to think about it. If it was the way you suggest then all an identity theif would

I'm curious as to whether I am covered by the GDPR. I'm an EU citizen but I live outside the EU.

Judging by the recommendations in the comments here, this would be a great place to start.

I'm @loke@functional.cafe, and I certainly post about other things outside my main programming interests. So far no one has complained about that. I think the point of an instance with a topic has more to do with the fact that people o

To answer your question as to why an IDE can't do it, the reason is that in order to do it you need to solve the halting problem. Of course, the IDE can do it if you limit yourself to a subset that is not fully Turing complete, which i

I've always wonder why no C or Java code formatter tool allows me to use Lisp-style formatting. It's clearly superior, and the popularity of Python should prove that people are OK with not having closing braces on their own lines

I just used their self service system and they didn't provide any information about me that I didn't provide myself. For example, they didn't include my phone number, even though they surely have it since I a sure to have fri

Just because they don't sell access to the information doesn't mean they're not being evil. That company is likely the worst in terms of user tracking out of all the companies mentioned in these comments. After all, this is a

You probably have the GDPR to thank for this. I'm curious how to get your shadow profile's data if you don't have an account.

If it's not disabled, then definitely it can do this. If it's disabled then it should effectively be uninstalled so it should be fine. That said it would certainly feel much more comfortable if you could delete it altogether.

I can't speak for the OP, but doesn't companies blatantly and intentionally break the law all the time?

They report them. And then nothing happens because its in the interest of Twitter's business to not do anything about it. To be fair, I'm sure some will be blocked but the problem with Twitter bots is that the only way to get rid

It's odd that they mentioned Norwegian at all. Nothing wrong with Norwegian of course, but the researchers are Swedish, and "jakten" means "the hunt" in Swedish just like Norwegian.

I think so. Not many, but I have seen friends make posts on Linkedin. IIRC, they were about some technical topics, similar to what you'd expect to see in a blog. Why they close to use Linkedin I don't know, but apparently it does

Because I believe that Common Lisp is a better language than Clojure. I'd be happy to discuss specifically what I believe the most important differences are in case you're curious. Clojurescript was chosen on the client side becau

I'm using the Dell Latitude E7470. It works great with Qubes OS, and the only reason that I haven't upgraded to the E7480 (which supports 32 GB RAM) is because I'm waiting for the next model. Pros: Good keyboard, decent touch

Most countries count from zero, in my experience. The exceptions are countries that have British heritage. Living in such a country now, it still somewhat annoys me when people talk about the "second floor" as being the one you re

Good point. I stand corrected. In retrospect, it was obvious enough that I should have thought of it.

That's a fair point, and it would make sense to allow the same for the robot. That could mean that you can allow for preprogramming the layout before. Or you could put two cameras on the robot to take pictures of 5 of the sides. I beli

Is there a category for robot solvers that have to fulfil the same requirements as a human solver? In other words, I'd like like to know how fast you can build a robot that has to start with the cube lying on a table in front of it, an

I'm not the original poster, but assuming you're referring to Skype for Business, the main problem with it is that they don't have a Linux client. The only solution on Linux that implements audio, video and screen sharing is
