Human rights isn't in the Australian Constitution, at least nothing about refugees or anything close to the American Bill of Rights. That's not to say it isn't part of our law, it's just not in that document. https:&#x2

Just for those reading, the bill introduces an injunction power for the Courts to order ISP's to block access to foreign sites. The important note here is that the blocking isn't done by the Government, as you might expect by thos

The Government is expected to include VPN's used explicitly for evasion of anti-piracy measures in this law. The Government even tried debating the definition of VPN, since that's obviously where a lot of people are headed with th

Since this is presently the top comment, as an Australian, I felt the need to comment. First thing to understand is that the Australian constitution is more about the formation and rights of the Government and less about personal rights as

Depends on the number of hours you are working a day, and assuming you're being charged out at time and materials, that would be $50-60 p/hour.

I believe it to be distasteful to use the death of someone whom this community has some connection to push a separate agenda. You can call out our priorities as being too short-sighted if you want, but this is a poor way to do it.

I was wondering how a service could claim to be "ethical," but they use a carbon neutral hosting provider which I think fits the mould better than some of the other claims. "Ethical" walks a fine line between socially go

This seems like a problem that doesn't require such an over-engineered solution. But I suppose over-engineering social arrangements is the underlying proposition of many Silicon Valley ventures...

Can you even run it as a mobile application w\ push notifications if it's over Tor? Wouldn't that require some kind of central server anyway...

There is a lot of assumed knowledge here, which hasn't really gone explained. What are "fines" and what are "extractions?" Why is the percentage important, and why are the slight differences in grams important? With

I don't understand how Twitter API's terms of use is any different than other API's? They all contain terms that outline the service can be sudden terminated at the discretion of the service provider, particularly in cases of

Could be that the blurring isn't being handled by the GPU. CSS 3D-transforms are usually added as a work-around when we want a smoother performance for certain elements by forcing that extra rendering step.

There overflow: hidden; on one of the its parents, so you'd assume that it shouldn't blur outside of the parent container. I'd call that a bug.

I think the movie conveys pretty clearly that she shows a lot of remorse and anger about how she was treated and the information she gave up under duress.

The other thing I find interesting is that McDonalds is a common dietary substitute for those with a low-income. If they were to increase quality (nutritional content) or increase price, it could have a meaningful effect on obesity.

I'd wager that abandoning GMO sources would have little impact on their appeal, since there would be no noticeable quality difference. Any marketing collateral around "We've one healthy GMO-free" could be done without th

It's funny hearing about, what I assume to be, McDonald's in the US. There are two Angus beef burgers is still available in Australia. Once they introduced them, Hungry Jacks (Burger King) did the same. It's actually pretty t

I didn't think that was ever in doubt, was it? HN has always been difficult to use on mobile devices due to all the fixed dimensions forcing the page to render at an unsuitable size.

Maybe I'm going a little mad, but is the acceleration when scrolling on that site incredibly high for anyone else (Chrome, OSX)? I doubt it's by design, but its certainly hard to navigate.

The phrase the poster was looking for was that "the example provided was hyperbole." Your comment is far too confrontational.

No issues with Chrome 42 on OSX 10.10. That said, that particularly site its quite complex in how it handles updating the DOM, so might not be the best example anyway.

The <div> element has no semantic meaning, screen-readers don't read them and they have no intrinsic behaviour unless associated with an aria tag.

Comparisons to print designers misses the biggest point about web design, that is that we have no way to guarantee a width, a position or even choice of font. Print designers know an A4 page is always 210x297mm, web designers have no idea w

Can someone explain in layman's what the issue actually is, because the article, neither its comments here or on Reddit, seem to dumb it down for non audiophiles?

I find that distinction somewhat trivial, I would wager most users shared in my experience, and that was one day Foursquare just stopped doing what they wanted it to do. Regardless of whatever timeline Foursquare followed, there was still o
