Can anyone explain to me in layman terms, how this is legal? I mean charging money for freely available open source tools, not owned by this site?

I'll take an Android promo as well!

Pretty cool, but straight up turns your laptop into a radiator.

That actually sounds like a great approach! I can imagine you've triggered a sense of involvement or idea ownership in the most active ones. From my own experience, as a user, reporting a bug er suggesting a feature in a product, only

That's currently where I'm at myself. Do you feel that, that approach scales fine and you get a broad enough idea of where problems are for the general user and where you need to improve/change things?

I agree, it's easier to do for web apps since you don't have to contend with "app store reviews", that can potentially leave a lasting blemish on your product. So far I've done it as you describe as well and it&#x27

Post-launch is mainly vetting that new features makes sense to users and catching UX faux pas, instability or even crashes, etc. before opening up to a wider audience, and possibly scores of bad reviews. I was thinking about just opening up

Mostly true, except with BitTorrent you get tricks for NAT traversal that WebRTC will never have and failure is an option. It works without a STUN/TURN central server, as long as the swarm is sufficiently connected.

Seconded. This seems like a major step back for x-platform GPGPU. I always just assumed a natural transition from GL, CL support to Vulkan would occur at some point, but this is just a shame.

Nice idea, but you should probably add links to a github project on the presentation page. I doubt you'll get anyone to just download and run an app, without at least taking a glance at the source first.

Speedwise, this would be a great sub for the Android Emulator for development purposes. I've always felt something like the iOS Simulator was missing a counterpart for Android.

Yes, but do you have an implementation of a sparse array with constant time lookups?
81.
by rhardih 10y ago
This phrase is misleading: The fastest time to sort an integer array is O(N) It could be interpreted as generally applicable. The proposed method uses reverse-indexed flagging, an approach which isn't really feasible if element value

This took quite some time to dig up. In case anyone else was wondering, this produces a png (assuming foo.pic contains the example pic instructions): $ pic foo.pic | pic2graph > foo.png

by rhardih 10y ago
Maybe it's just me, but if it takes more than five minutes, to figure out how to go from the example chart to a png, perhaps there's a reason no-one knows it.

Is this due to unfamiliarity / learning curve with the technology or limitations found using Qt Quick? Because what you're describing sounds an awful lot like the base example when starting a new Qt Quick application project.

This series is the best thing on HN in a long time. As a software engineer by trade, I feel like I've been missing out not learning more about electrical engineering. The level of knowledge and skill involved in this restoration is dow

Honestly I think you're right on the money! If you're happy and productive in your current workflow, there's no shame regardless of technology choice. The tendency to bandwagon every latest craze, is what lead to this mess in

Python's SimpleHTTPServer is for when you have some directory on your computer and you want to test it locally in the browser. That's all. That is however, the same intended purpose as this tool. So, there's no reason to u

I couldn't fit all that in the title though. :) Joking aside, you are correct. Go shipping pre-installed is a yet to be seen nice-to-have on most systems.
