That doesn't mean what you think it means. To use an example from the link: > sow (verb) – to plant seed > sow (noun) – female pig Not only are these words pronounced differently, etymologically they have different roots. [0] Do

That's the same point though - it's just as "wrong" to match 'ß' twice in Schlu[ß][sz]ene as it is to match 'a' once in [Ä]mpel. Admittedly German isn't my first language. But it seems odd to be

> Similarly, "ss" and "sz" (very rare) should match "ß" and vice versa, Szene should match ß?

Ah! That's my error; thank you for pointing that out. I hadn't realized that. I'll edit my comment.

Apt is great as long as what you want is available in the repo. Over the years I have had a few issues though. Often apt's versions trail behind the newest versions. There are some good reasons for this, but it can get in the way somet

Hmm... Well deserved, or a poor security choice for Android? The vulnerability appears to be that any app can overwrite an APK downloaded to external storage with a FileObserver. How is that not pathologically bad security on Android's

I've found some places say localStorage is insecure, but both OWASP [0] and MDN [1] say it isolates by origin. Third party scripts from different origins shouldn't be able to access it, but a successful XSS attack could have acces

Indeed. Safari, once very forward thinking, now lags behind every major browser in features and compatibility. Apple saw progressive web apps first as a revolutionary feature that could drive iPhone sales, and then second as a revolutionary

As a sibling comment suggested, using Magisk Hide lets you conceal your rooted status from those apps. Had this happen with my banking apps, and can confirm (on my Nexus 5x) that Magisk Hide did allow me to use those apps. As for reflashing

Indeed the first couple hours seem a bit tedious. I will say that the Ascension difficulty mechanic makes the game quite challenging at higher levels but scales quite well. And skill is definitely required to be successful in upper levels.

iOS supports password managers natively. When you focus a password input, the keyboard prompts you to open the password manager. For me it opens BitWarden directly from the keyboard. Android doesn't support this, so a workaround is to

I moved from awesomewm to i3. The big difference for me when I changed over was that i3 didn't use templates for window placement. In its place is a tree-style system that's fairly intuitive IMHO. In i3 I also frequently switch be

I also run i3 and MATE. It's a great combo: powerful tiling window manager plus a DE that handles all the settings / control panel well (without me having to do much configuration myself!).

You can indeed get pretty far with most screen splitting as supported by Windows/Gnome. Tilers go even further than that and give you a few more nice features. I run i3 inside Mate (gnome 2 fork). The features I use most are switching

Let's not conflate a) a person's personal data, and b) a business's dataset. The GP and the article are clearly referring to the latter. Preventing web scraping won't protect users from businesses collecting their data.

by ppseafield 7y ago
I think the GP in this context means, e.g. LinkedIn wants their information to be public in the cases where it benefits them as a business. But then they want it to not be public when it doesn't benefit them. There is no such thing as

It's not a dichotomy - removing animals from our diet does not leave a sterile environment for humans. Humans and their environment are plenty filthy on their own.
