It took a few hours in my case. You don't need to be logged in, though. They sent me an email, when it finished. I assume they have a low priority batch system to handle these requests.

I wrote myself a script, which does this via screen-scraping once. Of course, this is a shaky solution. On the other hand, it does not require me to request an ID from Facebook or give permissions to any third-party app.

I like the idea to include a name with TODOs, like # TODO(qznc) check Unicode handling This never occured to me, but it provides a good pointer whom to ask for details. On the other hand git-blame should be able to provide the same i

I don't think browsers will drop HTTP support in your lifetime. They still do FTP for example.

PhantomJS has a "render(fileName)" API which supports PDF. Essentially, it is trivial to implement something like Wkhtmltopdf. However, Wkhtmltopdf is a shrinkwrap solution, which does not require you to install nodejs.

I'd say the distuingishing factor is that you have multiple clients. A maid, who is only working for one "agency", looks fishy. At least, that is the main argument here in Germany.

Which just means that the paper was incomplete. The more interesting question is, how we can check a paper for completeness. I fear the answer is to try and implement it, which is costly for doing it in the peer review process.

Also agree. For an example of a specific circumstance consider theorem provers, because the proof is usually too large for a paper publication. The Archive of Formal Proofs (AFP) [0] is a repository for Isabelle proofs, which my collegues u

There is a switch to scale to realistic proportions. Actually, there are three separate switches for sun, planets, and moons. It also features a gravity grid. So everything you want is already in there?

By crowdsourcing news, it gets faster, but more biased. Quality journalism takes time to create. Hence, impulse-reporting like Twitter will never improve news.

If you write pedantic rants, then get your terminology right. Email is a heavily overloaded term. The protocol is SMTP,POP3, and IMAP. The data format is something defined through various RFCs and proprietary convenience. The use cases diff

The problem: Unknown mime-types are displayed as attachements. People are confused due to these "broken attachements". That is why I do not use "PGP/MIME", for example. As far as i know, there is no mime-type stuff to the proposed "semantic

Restricting database access is one aspect of security with Firebase. Much more interesting is the cross-site scripting problem. For example, firebase.com pulls in Javascript from Twitter and Google. Is Firebase safe from the other code on t

Short answer: not necessarily A good JVM contains optimizations, which makes it cheap. For example, it will try to allocate the object on the stack instead of the heap. Apart from field initialization, this costs nothing, because the stack

Can tmux give two client the same window, but different panes? This means they can see each others cursor on another part of the window.

Theorem prover seems to misleading. It seems to be an SMT solver, not a competitor to Isabelle, Coq, etc.

Nice idea, but i don't believe that eval and apply are the two sides of the coin. In the article, apply is just a part of eval, which was originally called evalquote.

We could settle with markdown? Does any mail client handle the mime-type text/markdown or text/x-markdown [0] or text/x-web-markdown [1] or something? [0] http://www.mail-archive.com/markdown-discuss@six.pairlist.ne... [1] http://codecra
