Here's a thought. If a poet were presented with this code-poetry, would they appreciate it as much as a coder? That said, I'm a programmer who took digital media art installation courses in school and I didn't find it to be t

That assumes that all other costs are fixed and not variable. Bell Canada as quoted (BCE), highlights that the financial math is actually “we can fire a lot of people if we switch to fibre optic because maintenance costs are lower,” but not

I have previously, strenuously argued against ads in the App Store and will continue to do so until I manage to singlehandedly change Apple’s mind on this (yeah, not happening, I know…) Outside of that, I’m okay with Apple showing ads for t

Github makes it a single click to hide their intrusive notifications and such. They're rather tasteful at where and when they show you something. They have a notifications panel you can click once and then it won't bug you until t

Edit: as another commenter rightly points out, it's likely unrelated. Here's the changelog: https://www.7-zip.org/history.txt That said the first entry at the bottom dates back to 2.00, so it's possible there

Yes, except it's easy to debug a csv problem because it's generally text in some encoding you can hopefully identify without looking at specific byte offsets in a hex editor: http://fileformats.archiveteam.org/wiki

Do you work in a job where you can't stop the clock for 10 minutes to take care of bodily functions? The only choices here are between getting penalized for lateness, pissing in a bottle, or finding a new job, and they amount to the sa

I see your tongue is still firmly in cheek here, as a brief Google Scholar search would reveal there are very few experiments available to observe quantum gravity and as far as I can tell, few studies of mathematics ever bother considerin

A better option might be to split out Tina into its own module of JS and load it on-demand with maybe a lightweight progress bar or loading indicator when triggered/required? Such as when hitting a keystroke or when a cookie or other l

I figure the easy (though actually hard) answer is to try to collect commonly used add-ons in one central place and update those there, the same way that TypeScript can always keep moving as a language while centrally publishing new version

Section 4 of [1] lists applications, including OVN, but it appears to be used primarily for experimental or research projects at the moment, but that should change given enough time… maybe? 1: https://github.com/vmware/

Maybe here? https://github.com/defunkt/unicorn/blob/2c347116305338710331... Admittedly, that's an older copy, I'd have to look up a newer copy of the source to see if that function or a similar one

In many languages and web frameworks, the assumption is that the application server will do this for you. For example, by issuing a new env variable with each request such that requests can't easily share memory with other requests, th

I think for the sake of conversation we would have to draw a dividing line between the operating system Apple makes and the apps Apple makes, even when that line can be very, very blurry. (Pre-installed apps, the App Store itself, etc.) I&#

It’s worth pointing out that often LOA forms ask for a PIN, usually the same PIN as would be required to check voicemail. A better telecom company might make the PIN something harder to remember but enforcing such things would also make it
