I think this could increase the kilowatt/person ratio and still be a net win for our climate. Eating less meat as a society reduces our reliance on animals, which as husbandry reduces so does the methane output. Methane is a significan

Has anyone made a site yet detailing all of these horror stories? Paypal's behavior is unacceptable and needs to change, yet years later things still seem just as bad for their customers.

Really sad that so much engineering time from browser teams is still spent on flash. Can we just let this tech die already?

Comparing Edge on Windows to Safari on macOS is apples to apples. Browsers running on an OS. I d be really interested in this comparison, since Apple's big selling point is being apple to specialize since they control the hardware. If

Slack is currently using 144 MB on my Windows machine (with a lot of public channels and DMs active). Electron may give up some performance for a lower development effort, but that's the known trade-off. I think you're making it s

You're criticizing a released project for their technology choice, advocating that they should have waited to build it until some other tech was ready... Maybe take a step back and just appreciate that they built and shipped something.

Maybe I missed it in the article, but why is this only present on x86 chips? How do 64-bit processors from Intel offer the same management functionality without this ME subsystem?

Swipe left for widgets stuck out to me as an Android origin. They were first with widgets, and they introduced the swipe-left-from-homescreen UX.

Really cool tech, but kind of a depressing start to this young industry. I feel like desktop apps are making huge strides in being cross-platform, both in attention from developers and the lower development effort required thanks to a myria

Hmm, I checked the source when originally reading it and thought I saw a d3 link but you are correct. Thanks for clarifying.

by ohitsdom 10y ago
That helps a lot, thanks! I've mostly used Highcharts but now am going to have to dive into d3 to play around with some of this...

Incredibly interesting, and waaaay more data than I expected. The fancy d3 weighted tree/forking chart was fascinating. > I tried to categorize cries as they were happening (because I wanted to create a real-time crying dashboard) S

How is this constitutional? I thought the courts have already clearly ruled that emails are private and therefor require a warrant.

Not sure how you define "independent", but media will always be somewhat beholden to their benefactors (which today is advertisers). Gawker is not above this, see this story which impacted ad money (but was also extremely slimy).

Thank you, this was so much more informative than the article.

> "BCHS (pronounced /biːtʃəz/, beaches) is for real development. It's a hipster-free, open source software stack for web applications." Everything about how this is written is so hipster. Cool idea though.

I get that security is a major, major concern but scanning headlines seems like a really poor metric for deciding when technology is "ready". There will always be bad/rushed/under-staffed developers and bad business deci

Seems cool, but I wonder how much of this is faked in the demo video. The man signs "T" and it's translated to "Thomas", "N" to "Navid", and "L" to "Lemelson". So unless this
