This project has existed for three years and that hasn't happened yet. Rendering pages with this thing has many many downsides (most notably that it is insanely slow, but also that it is incredibly lacking in tons of basic functionalit

No one reads the warnings on Wikipedia pages. Having pages that aren't considered officially maintained is messy and would probably lead to people seeing Wikipedia as having lower-quality articles overall.

Blocking a URL or a CSS class name can be done very efficiently/easily with a browser extension, while running OCR on an ad (most ads are images/videos rather than pure text) to find keywords is much more difficult and computation

A DV certificate does not certify that example.com is trustworthy; it only certifies that the content you're seeing is indeed from example.com. If users are mistakenly assuming DV certs have more meaning than that, then that is a UI is

This is very much the case. When employees/employers broadcast negative info about each other, both parties suffer. Obviously, the accused suffers because all this negative info about them is now public, but the accuser also suffers be

If you implement this on your site, it won't get me to give my real email address; I'll just leave and not give your product a chance.

Eh, I don't think a post-mortem is really necessary. They said it was a broken code change on the status page. If they wrote a post-mortem, it'd probably just say "A team member forgot to foobar the bazqux when deploying an u

We'll have to wait for the postmortem, but I bet it was an unintentional dependency on S3 that no one realized had come into place until S3 went down -- especially considering how fast they were able to remove the dependency and fix it

I use it for everything that my TV doesn't have a native app for, which is primarily Crunchyroll. Occasionally it's fantastic for random things -- my local soccer club FC Cincinnati was playing a preseason match yesterday that was

Nowadays, I use Transmission. It's extremely simple with no visual clutter, open source + no ads, has command line and daemon features if you're into that sort of thing. Can't recommend it highly enough.

If you're working with JSON, you probably know how to use the command line (or at least, you ought to). And if you know how to use the command line, you should just install csvkit[1]. Then you can just do `in2csv in.ext > out.csv` a

Oh my god that's awful, what's the point of making it so counterintuitive?? I'll never understand the motivation of companies that roll their own 2FA instead of just using TOTP or Authy.

I've always just used asdf.com, but I suppose there's always the risk it might switch over to HTTPS; might switch to this instead.

Depends on your definition of "old" -- I'm using Bash, PHP, HTML, and JavaScript at work, which are all over 21 years old, but they don't really feel that old (even PHP feels new and shiny thanks to the lovely Symfony fr

I'm gonna have to disagree with this one. There are tons of great, battle-tested backup tools out there -- rolling your own solution seems to just be asking for something to go wrong.

The USC/LA Times poll was still trash; Trump winning doesn't change that. Their poll was national (rather than broken down by states) and, as such, was meant to predict the popular vote rather than the electoral. They were suggest

I don't think such a thing exists, probably because there are few/no applications that target Linux and not OS X that aren't also open source. Can you give an example of an app that is only released as a compiled binary for L

I don't really see any issue with Electron apps -- Slack and Atom, both Electron-based, are some really good looking apps that really get the job done. For me, even as a Mac user, I avoid Mac-only apps as much as I possibly can because

Given what I've heard about the secure enclave on the iPhone in the last year or two, you'd hope Apple could get something as basic as the webcam light right. I'd imagine it's feasible to have the LED and the webcam on t
