If you're interested in Clojure, the gist author (Zach Oakes) maintains a few cool projects [1]: - play-clj, a Clojure game library - Nightcode, an IDE for Clojure - Nightweb, an anonymous P2P social network in Clojure and (non-Clojure

No I meant long-polling exactly as you define it; periodic polling doesn't seem comparable to WebSockets, due to the polling frequency. Let me reformulate: as you say, yes WebSockets are probably better in every way than longpoll in mo

The author is indeed well aware of WebSockets limitations, and OP's "Examples of where it's acceptable/recommended to use WebSockets" seem sound. The problem is that the appeal of oooh-shiny is so strong that some

Hint if you're looking for other css selectors to make additional customizations: to inspect any GTK3 app under GNOME ≥ 3.14, just set the gsetting mentioned at [1], and Ctrl+Shift+I to get a Chrome/Firefox devtools-like inspector

Thanks! They're dense, will read them at home. But looking at the first link (which is kind of a summary if my understanding is correct), I don't see any mention of the most important benefit to me: controls-in-titlebar. Am I miss

True. I hate this padding so much I get rid of most of it with this ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css : GtkToolbar {padding: 1px;} GtkButton {padding: 4px;} GtkComboBox GtkToggleButton {padding: 2px;} On this side, i

Can you elaborate why "client-side decorations are a sin that we should know better than to repeat" ? From a subjective user perspective, I like them for enabling controls in titlebar, which paved the way for compact, elegant wi

Good to have this kind of feedback from someone who used both. Could you expand the comparison on a few key points?

In a sense, this feature/dialog is "close" to e10s as it's under the same umbrella at Mozilla, the "Snappy" [1] effort to work on performance. But it's not the same: - e10s is about making each browser tab

Uuuh yeah indeed, sorry (OP here) for the mistake, hope a moderator fixes it :/ EDIT I emailed the team asking for an edit.

Sad to hear they are just "discontinuing" it rather than porting it as an addon. Or is it killed because it's the kind of addon impossible to implement with the new WebExtensions API?

I don't think water kefir is similar to kombucha in difficulty, kombucha seems much more fragile. I killed my kombucha mother at the first batch (not sure what went wrong), and never got any problem with water kefir. A friend who tried

Yeah. See also manmal's answer, which covers something important if you do want to absolutely avoid sugar: you have to leave it ferment for a longer time, and it gets vinegar-y.

Not sure I'm getting your question; yes it's up to you to decide the quantity of sugar you like.

Didn't know about ayran, will try it, thanks :) . Do you prepare it just with by "mixing yogurt with iced water", or do you add flavor to it? (like Indians do with lassi [1]). [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

Two additions to the probably positive effects on health: 1. The author rightfully mentions it, but I'll repeat it nevertheless because fermented foods are often only characterized as "healthy" without any mention for their t

It's still imperfect; expect some breakage, depending on your addons. I myself faced problems in HighlightAll (fixed in recently-released 1.8), and VimFx (still broken, which leads me to disable e10s for now). Nit: you mean (js-based)
