The photographer that that left identifiable faces should be prosecuted. Perhaps that is the most telling problem: these people's rights are not enforced, because those people live on fringes of morality. Making a commercial project ba

Indeed. From an article here on HN there is a lack of vaapi support on Firefox and I think Chrome in linux. Furthermore there are special profiles(looking at you H264) that only work reliably in software decoders.

On the topic of romans and meanings changing, the word decimation used to mean the killing of one in ten in the Roman legions as a way to get military discipline. Nowadays there is no connection to Roman legions nor killing and actually is

The Ethernet cable scissor test success made me laugh :D. We agree on the general weak suitability of http codes to convey application layer status, but I kind of disagree on the 503 because it implies an overload and an internal error, whi

My apologies if I am repeating what others have said, but just yesterday I chose to give a 404 for an operation that could not be concluded because a resource is not available. A 404 is not about pages but about resources. It is perfectly l

Wow. To equate logic errors with being clueless? You do not need to be clueless to not sanitize input. You just need to forget about it, or incorrectly assume the input is safe, or, basically have a bad day. I make bad assumptions and stupi

I had a machine organs exam where the teacher allowed to brink laptops even. I did not bring it but i would fail just the same. The only way the laptop would help would be if somebody was solving it for you, but this would be overt cheating

The problem of DAG is solved by make very well. So well that it is why people insist on using it. In theory they would have made a good choice. The issue is that "make" made sure to put enough traps so that people with less knowle

I do not do PHP and only have done a bit a long time ago, but I chuckle at the statement that nobody starts any project in PHP, only to find that a huge amount of new sites are wordpress sites, and they are a gateway to PHP. And do not disc

Yeah, those are the hard ones. Worse, time is the essence of a good amount of issues from performance, to startup stabilization to the deadliest of all errors: the race condition.

Nice write up. Just wanted to add that the problem of using simulators or mock is that now you have one extra code base to maintain totalling: the code, the test, and the mock. For mock drivers this can be a quite big task. In the end I ju

I agree that debugging is about attitude. Above all debugging is about acknowledging your understanding and/or assumptions are wrong and revisiting then. I would also say debugging is the punishment for your mistakes,and oh boy it can

Hello telesilla, I do not have write up as this is part of a project I am hoping to commercially release. If you have specific questions let me know. The basic thing is that if you are doing a basic demo without business logic you can easil

No doctor here but maybe the rigorous schedule to go to sleep is what really made a difference. Sleep hygiene is a lot just controlling the predictability of the sleep environment and time it happens.

Hello auskje, maybe my post was not clear. The phone acts as a connecting point to the drone, through a manufacurer's SDK. The camera of the phone is not used nor is the phone flying. Actually the phone is connected to a remote control

Macao was a portuguese colony and until today the regular word for tea in portuguese is chá,read cha in English. Just found out that tea in spanish is not chá, which is very interesting given the huge commonality in portuguese and Spanish.

I normally do not comment code unless it is a dangerous hack or a todo. Otherwise I make a small commit with a commit message explaining the why of the change. The git blame of our code base documents the why of almost every line and review

You can use git log -S and the regex of the line to see how that line changed over time. It is also called git pickaxe. Also git diff has an ignore white space which basically ignores formatting stuff if that is the case. I believe that gi

To be honest it is hard to not break ABI. First you almost surely need to use PImpl and second hope a compiler upgrade keeps the standard library ABI compatible(eg ABI version flags in gcc). For a good look at how hard this is look at break
