It's possible if you also translate all of the code that uses the polyfilled object by converting every MemberExpression to a function call, but that's probably a nightmare for performance.

I suppose it's a difference in terminology, but it seems strange for them to state: > Support for ACID and eventual consistency. As ACID typically implies strong consistency. To quote the wikipedia page on eventual consistency that

I feel like any CDN or caching proxy (which might even happen at the ISP level if you aren't using HTTPS!) would have that same issue. You should serve confidential files from unique URLs or at least set the right HTTP headers to disab

The website wasn't made by anyone on the React Native team, but it is based on an "official" statement, though the time estimate was simply a best-guess. It'll be out when it's ready.

Even better: The arrow function example used the statement form of an arrow function, instead of the expression form, which allows you to omit the return: // using arrow var adder = { num: 2, nums: [1,2,3,4,5], a

I know you can't share AMIs derived from marketplace snapshots, so I suspect the same may be true of Windows instances. The marketplace instance restriction is rather annoying as CentOS and Debian publish their official images through

The progression in solid-state drives (SSDs) shows slow, unreliable, and "damn expensive" 30GB drives in 2005. Those drives were roughly $10/GB, but today's rack-mounted (3U) 512TB SSDs are less than $1/GB and can

I agree. I did an internship with them, and was told I'd get a return offer for the next summer. It took the recruiter months to get it to me, and they initially decreased my salary, until I pointed it out. I only actually received

They seem to be rendering the documents at 2x, which is good for retina and 4k displays, but means that it's slower on low-res displays, and the text's anti-aliasing is at the mercy of the image scaling algorithm used. Instead, th

Intel does a good job producing and supporting their open source graphics drivers. The PowerVR chips aren't designed by Intel, so they don't receive the same level of support.

Certainly. The kernel can simply pass through the device, although you lose some of the security of containerization that way. There may be issues with multiple containers sharing the same GPU though.

I think Chrome is able to do this because it separates tabs into processes, but I don't think there's a good way for Firefox to do it since everything is in a single process. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.c

The API calls return lists of results, which tend to be long enough that it's trivial to read in all new comment and post data from Reddit. I think the maximum limit on the list size is 100 items, so that's up to 3000 comments
