I've added offline/local-first to my web app so users to keep a copy and backups of all of their data on site and use the app offline but none of them want to do anything at all to implement it, and I've made very easy. They

Thank you! All the Javascript code is in that html page source. The Bootstrap and jQuery you can grab from their sites. I'm using their latest version for this. All I did was go copy urls from the NOAA site and fetch just the images an

Yeah, that's fair. But there is certainly a difference when you bushwhack as opposed to trail hiking to a popular camp site or scenic spot.

I appreciate the goals and tenacity to achieve them of the folks who do this kind of thing but it's not my style. I've spent a lot of time in our State and National forests and for the past 15 years most of it has been off trail a

I've not been following it but I have a very liberal friend who has and he's said he thinks it was a case of self defense. Several other disagreed but he held his ground. >Highly impulsive people who lean conservative are more

I bought "Connectix's RAMdoubler" back in day and it worked for me. I was using a Mac PowerPC 6100 and trying to compile an "Apple Media Tool" project for an "Interactive CD_ROM" and it couldn't do it

From the article: "India’s average income has increased by 7.5 percent per year." "A similar trend can be seen in Nigeria. Since the new millennium, gross domestic income per capita has increased by over 800 percent, from $27

That headline is a fine example of nicely crafted bullshit, and so is the content it pretends confirms it. GDP and average income do not measure poverty. If anything they obscure it.

After learning some very basics for html, perl, and JS I took a "need to know approach" to building apps. My skills are pretty well confined to that but fairly strong now. But I've played around with quite a few other techs s

I'm probably going to get smacked a bit for this but a lot of the comments here focus on a better fix for the 20 year old problem the author relates only in order to illustrate a point and that's a very HN kind of response. And I

We still have capital punishment so, yeah. I'll offer that was probably not any more common in Mayan life than ours now and those glyphs and stories are a sort of example used to keep folks in check or aggrandize the rulers of the day

I've been to a few dozen sites there over the 3 trips I've taken to the Yucatan area. I climbed a pyramid in Guatemala a few years ago on a trip there and chatted with the park rangers there. At first they were kinda of standoffis

Self-driving vehicles sound incredible because they are. I am honestly amazed at how well that tech works, and absolutely horrified knowing there are folks and corporations making and using it on our public roads and hwys. Until we meet the

There's no other way than sonar to detect things like mountains underwater? That's interesting. Seems by now we might have something else that does that. A way to use sonar that obfuscates the source of a ping, underwater lidar, s

Damn... that's certainly provides a lot more reasons for not advertising on Google and I already had more than enough!

Ask HN: What are good alternatives to Google to advertise an app?

I live in Missouri, in the deep Red Ozark Mountains in the SW part of it and I shared an article on that on FB in a local group. Our Governor really blew it on this one. Folks here will generally stand by their GOP Party and for the most pa

Generally speaking I account for it, so yes. If someone comes with a problem they've not been able or need to solve and I basically know what tools I can use that can solve it, but I've not spent the time to learn how to use them

My comment was not about the driver. It was about our Gov's response to the OP's efforts to report this, or more accurately, our Gov's complete lack of one. I'll try real hard to be clearer for you in the future.

Really sorry to hear this. I really cannot see how this bullshit is allowed on our roads. We're all guinea pigs for this insane experiment when the truth is we know it cannot work well enough to not kill and maim people. Our government

Sounds to me like the Tesla tried to keep going after it hit you. Those cars really should not be allowed to use that tech and they've gone well beyond having enough proof to admit that.
