The HEOS line of Denon/Marantz also has a HTTP API with a fully public API specification[1], which is great! You can use the ESP wifi connection to control it if you want to and it has quite a few features (afaik you can do everything

They are great! But some (most?) could really benefit from a creation date/year being visible, especially when referencing years that are made out to be "far in the future" but are in the past now

Or Why not find some leaked windows/office source code and try to train a model to reconstruct microsoft software, then open source it? This surely must be legal, they're doing it themselves after all :D (Maybe bring oracle into t

One thing I have seen in mp3Tag but not in others are the easy and powerful batch-processing features (with preview!), somewhat like a DSL. Want to rename and move all your files at once? go for it. Want to extract Metadata from the file&#x

As noted by other commenters, google collects and stores your MAC adress, but looks at your SSID to determine if you opted out. So I assume if you're hiding the SSID then Google will still collect your APs MAC adress.

I think what brnt means is that he wants some links to open in an entirely different app and not in a browser. I don't see how phishing is applicable in this case. In fact it may be a good measure against it since you quickly see that

The graphs seem to me like they were selectively showing data which makes europe look bad. E.g. only showing the market cap of big companies or showing the decline of the european share of gdp but not the US one (which I assume was also fal

If you order that much then Amazon has little reason to loose you as a customer, so of course they will not bother you.

I also had doubts but there are statistics (arguably not representative) that seem to confirm this: https://pkgstats.archlinux.de/fun (See GPU drivers and add(might not be the best idea, I know) the nvidia numbers...) It mi

I as an individual on my free time would never sign any CLAs, but would be happy to contribute to Apache Licensed Projects. Why? Because CLAs make the sharing agreement asymmetrical. I want to provide my changes under exactly the same terms

by mqus 5y ago
I agree. AGPL is nice and all but for contributors this does not really matter at all because of the CLAs. I will never contribute to projects which reserve the right to relicense, e.g. take ownership over my contributions, however small or

I'm somewhat wishing for a `.bind!()` macro or something similar, which will desugar `let y = x.method().bind!().reference_and_do_something()` into `let tmp = x.method(); let y = tmp.reference_and_do_something()` . This should be avail

In intellij this was a bit frustrating to me, you can do ctrl-shift-`/` to block-comment (in german keyboard: ctrl+shift+shift+7). How do I double-shift? I know you can configure that in IJ but I'm too lazy to do that, especially

In my experience, those either get detected(?) and let through (rss can be agressively cached after all) or you're out of luck and the website owner set up e.g. wordpress (which automatically included rss URLs) but did not configure cl

This "loophole" is necessary to allow certain usecases not to need a banner or opt-in at all. E.g. If I want to buy something online, the shop has to know my adress to ship me something. It shouldn't have to ask to use it f

This is a very controversial opinion in a startup forum :) But that aside, how would you handle public trading companies, where you can simply buy an influential part of a company? It is not the same as owning or merging but having board in

The key thing with most patents is that the fees have to be "fair" (which is afaik also a legal requirement). In eInks case, the fee seems to be too high[1]. Now, does anyone want to go to court over this? nope. [1] I'm just
