Indeed, especially #1. There's a thing with the web : it's easy. If we start making more native apps, especially desktop apps, we then have to consider users' environment (we do not control the execution environment, like wit

Don't know about others, but since I run my projects in containers anyway, I'll usually use `direnv` on my host to set GOPATH to project directory, and then use the default GOPATH in go docker images (`/go`). I could even do

I've been writing js professionally for more than ten years, and I totally love flow. Sure, it doesn't happen that often that I feel like I've caught with it a bug I wouldn't have without it (not even sure how you can te

Certainly, it's a banking problem. My problem was not to list pending transactions, though, it was not knowing how much I could use at any given moment with my card (because it's unrelated to my balance). The cryptocurrency part w

Yep, it was a prepaid visa, the "feature" of it was that I could recharge it in an hour or less (the time a bitcoin transaction was confirmed).

Fiat, while in a way better shape on that part, is not perfect either. I don't know for other countries, but here in france we have three means of payment : payment cards, paychecks and cash. Cash is annoying to manage because of its f

I've considered opensourcing some business products and researched the various models for doing so. I found three main ones: * pay for support, like ardour * pay for additional features, like gitlab on-premise * pay for hosting, like p

Awesome, thanks. I've seen the name mentioned several times, but I didn't know what was behind. It seems (unsurprisingly for an hardware abstraction) that performance is a problem, but at least it's a problem that is being wo

Cool to see research in that field, I realized this year that for gaming GPU and VRAM were actually more important than CPU and RAM, it probably tells something about underusage of GPU in general computing. There's one big blocker as f

I often hear this argument, but if it was fact, wouldn't it prevent the price to get very high? As new merchants start selling, they would fight by offering lower price than competitors down to the rate they feel is still worth the bus

I initially thought it would allow to dynamically handle upstreams list (and other configuration) like hipache is doing [1], which would be awesome for dokku or other container management systems which rely on system nginx. But after seeing

It's not just an openworld, it's "randomly" generated (from what I understand, the idea was to fix random generator's seed based on space coordinates, so that the same coordinates always produce the same planets). I

I have a daily routine, always charging my phone at the same time, always using it at the same time. If after an update I notice the day after my battery is drained one hour before the usual time, it sounds pretty safe to assume the update

Would you care to explain why? (provided that when we speak of battery life, we mean how much time it can go without recharging, and not after how many years you have to change it)

I didn't read the book, but being boring is Tarkovsky's touch, so it sounds pretty safe to say it comes from him. Also people, please don't downvote parent. It's very fair to say this movie is boring and confusing, and I

And did you have the same feeling with them than I had with 90' old people? That is, seeing most of them sick or handicapped to the point they could not achieve much? Obviously, this would not be proof : even if we accept the hypothesi

Very insightful, thanks. It's indeed time to realize that present day old people are actually those who built computers, not the ones who saw their kids tinker with them. Also, being 35, I must say that I find retired people way more d

Thing is, OP mentions using two different browsers, which is why it's surprising. I guess there's still the possibility that a cookie was added months before that and that "tainted" browsing was forgotten. But it's

Yeah, totally, small and medium teams don't need all of those. That was my initial point about implementing our own flux-styled store layer for react, instead of using flux (the actual lib) or redux, which are made for such giants. We

Yep, I feel the same way, but then again I usually work with small startups. I had an experience with a bigger team, recently (about 20 devs) and went all the way "what you do is too complicated". I was quickly humbled when I real

I always do that, actually. I see what is provided in the App.js file as just a placeholder, meant to be replaced. Since you have webpack, you can import files from all over the place, deciding how to organize your project. It works just fi

And even there it's not the pain it has been, if you write react app, thanks to create_react_app. It basically brings all of that out of the box, without any configuration needed, just like `rails new my_app_name` creates a ready to us
