It's awesome that you've implemented unsnoozing on the client side. That's a major plus and I'm hoping to recommend mailspring to my team after giving it a try.

I've also found the BabelJS "Learn ES2015" page valuable as a cheat sheet and usually have it open while working with ES2015+: https://babeljs.io/learn-es2015/

Great product announcement post! I especially liked the Q&A section's reasons for not choosing alternatives. Is the lack of maturity also the reason for not choosing something like vm2 for NodeJS https://github.com/

In addition to squashing commits, you can merge with `--no-ff` to create s merge commit and semi-linear history showing when new code arrived.

Oh wow I totally missed that. Read it as the same blog post. I jumped right past the date line without even seeing it. The URL's anchor tag didn't update when scrolling, which probably contributed.

German isn't "gibberish" to some of us, so I would not describe it that way. It's a German banking API after all. A functional API that is being used is better than no API at all.

It appears the extension would like to read and change the data on any website I visit. I assume users are the product here, so this appears somewhat sketchy since I'm not sure what personal data of mine is being sold.

I'm curious about how the hack occurred. With the recent Hipchat hack, it is unclear if the login server was compromised or the database dump was obtained some other way. If the Hipchat webserver that handles sign-in attempts was the o

Minor nitpick: I get what you mean, but GitHub might be a poor example since GitLab is a strong competitor in this space that is arguably better in both features (self-hosted) and price (free). That said, I can't think of ones for Base

The webserver could have been compromised causing plaintexts for login attempts to be exposed as well. In fact, that is a very plausible explanation for how the database was accessed since it is usually firewalled off.

I would expect it to be ES2017 or similar.

Switching to 5 GHz instead of 2.4 GHz has made this magnitude of difference for me in the past. Today, at home, I haven't had dedicated internet connectivity for 4 years. I log in to the xfinitywifi SSID that some of my neighbors in my

It appears to have been a design issue and not necessarily due to the time constraints placed on engineering to launch the spacecraft. Looks like there would have been a strong chance of this occurring anyway, as the initial assumptions of

Nice. Is there an equivalent for Python? A quick Google search doesn't seem to pull up anything obvious.

As a sidenote, returning something bought via Instacart is a pain, as I learned. Target refused to accept a defective light-bulb without the original receipt, but did exchange it for store credit fortunately.

This is awesome. Previously, this would have required easily pronounceable/typeable passwords to be able to log in on mobile. I can see this incresing adoption of LastPass, and eventually revenue even if conversion rates drop.

Technical solutions are unnecessary. Just make the tickets non-transferrable, and have the ticket holder produce ID confirming the name on the ticket matches the person. Plenty of music festivals, Vegas nightclubs and other places already

Thanks for the explanation colmmacc! I agree with the challenge you described, and am not sure what the best approach would be. Perhaps a configurable timeout such as ELBs have?
