It would be nice if this could output colors for something like a heatmap.

What he is saying is not bullshit, it's fairly accurate, but just way overblown with the "spying" drama. It should be common sense to keep your personal life at home and use work provided resources for work related stuff...

Isn't that movie not even out yet? I always wait for the reviews once the movie is actually out.

I see what you are saying and I like it a lot. I think you would still need a way to have people discover the current state you live in. One thing that comes to mind is taxes that differ per state. If I told amazon to ship my package to bob

Open a brokerage account and invest in index funds. That requires the least amount of effort and is shown to provide solid gains over time. You may also want to accelerate your home purchase plans. This is also an excellent way to use spar

Could not have said it any better. I kind of want to rm my posts now. This expresses my exact frustrations. RDF isn't just XML! Look for this tool that does JSON serialization! * looks for such a tool, finds a broken mess
218.
by mcot2 13y ago
I know all of those things. But it is still the case that the initial serialization format was XML and most of the initial tools were Java.

by mcot2 13y ago
So that's not really solving any specific problem and it's kind of hand waving to say RDF solves data integration problems for data on the web. Let's break it down a bit. We learned early on that people put information on the

by mcot2 13y ago
I've been involved with RDF in a major way before, around 2008. My experiences back then were pretty horrible, but I would be willing to give it another look. Primary I dispise the Java and XML ecosystems and am way more interested in

You might want to test out tokumx. Document level locking and compression are two of the features it has.

Any mention of mongodb these days should really be mentioning tokumx. It's got real transactions, compression, hot backup, and optimized (sequential) read/writes.

Yes, the U.S. is big. BUT if you implement high speed rail in specific corridors it would be quite a bit better than flying. The DC, Baltimore, Philly, NYC, Boston route covers millions of people. It is absolutely criminal that we cannot g

Mozilla keeps changing the dev tools while the WebKit inspector remains fairly consistent. I no idea how to quantify it, but I just prefer the inspector, by a long shot. The networking tab and DOM inspector are brilliant.

Maybe if we didn't have gigabytes of RAM these days. I quite like the idea of static linking. It makes software packaging and distribution very very easy and it has some security benefits. Go's build system is a good example of

Tokumx would solve all of these issues. 2TB goes a long way in tokumx with lzma compression.

I've been using Flexbox for a while now. Unless you need to support older IE than it is quite usable. The one problem is the older syntax for IE10 but it is fixed in IE11 and going forward.

If our end result is to see Netflix using HTML5 video on Desktop browsers, how do we get there from a technology and business point of view? Keep in mind that Netflix has content created and owned by the major studios. If any form of DRM

We have basically two options here. DRM for video and audio streams will be introduced by each browser vendor separately, or we have some kind of standard. I would rather see a standards based approach... This is reality . The merits of

You would only see big investment in HTML5 video if big content sites could use it. Currently most of them want DRM...

by mcot2 13y ago
I don't even understand what the term "Open Web" even means. I don't see how driving video on the web away from flash and onto a standardized system is against the principals of openness, even if DRM is a requirement fo

They will be satisfied enough to offer HTML5 video. The point is killing off Flash. It is a lot easier to secure a smallish DRM module in a browser than a gigantic environment like Flash.
233.
by mcot2 13y ago
Not really. I want to get rid of Flash because of security, battery life/performance and because it is not touch friendly.
234.
by mcot2 13y ago
I don't care how it gets done, but if we need this to finally kill off flash than I am for it. This problem is solved technically so let's just get it done. Yes, every DRM will eventually be broken, but at least it satisfies the

Sorry, this sounds like a terrible place to work.

The real benefit is mixing percentages with pixels. This makes things like sidebars and sticky footers a breeze.

by mcot2 13y ago
The good news here is that IE11, Chrome, Firefox and Safari all support the newest Flexbox standard. It's pretty simple to bring in IE10 support with the older syntax. Forget about the older box layout in Firefox that was built for XU

A lot of these downsides are fixed by Tokumx. Real transactions, document level locking, compression and disk optimized indexes. I suggest everyone take a look at it.

This isn't really 'distributed grep' as far as I can tell. It is simply running grep individually on each machine.
