I stated the reason, and I don't have a replacement. It's a great idea, but for now I'll have to wait for websites to enforce https on their users. But of course it can work for you if you have the resources to spare.

Not HTTPS Everywhere, the extension, which has ridiculous system demands.

With old Presto Opera there was a valid stance of "it might not work and we are not going to test it". But with current Opera, or Vivaldi, and I'm sure many others, it should just work, since they are all Chromium based. By t

It's not just "now". They've been blocking features outside of Chrome for years. Just simple user-agent check to disable something here and there and show an ad.

This makes it hard to master languages similar to your native one. With a completely foreign language you have to pause and think. With language close to one you already know it's easy to fill in the gaps by switching the language.

Side question about the "core" approach. Can your core be *GPL (in case it needs/ships with GPL libraries/tools) while some "plugins/modules" would be closed source? Let's say you have an IRC client t

Was there any actions taken against US for this? Was the original idea to just destroy the place or was it an important point in the pacific side of the war? Either way, while reparations are a bit sensitive, this should have been easy, con

At pictures I see PgUp/PgDown keys next to up arrow. Dell has it the same way I think. It's a bit different to an End key, but even then, the biggest issue was that it's only the End there. No Home on the other side.

I didn't mean layout in that sense, rather how keys are laid out.

Why the keyboard layout? End next to up key? Insert above backspace? What's wrong with the classic 2x3 block? Another issue I have is with the spacing between F keys. Looks like an afterthought to Fn+? keys. Not to mention there is not

It has been for a long time, I mean part of it, not necessarily good. I'm glad people do it because it makes for interesting read. But the issue is that other (game) developers aren't your audience 9 out of 10 times.

1) It's very hard to get proof for good, but not exceptional games. Getting any feedback is hard. Minecraft was unique, it will likely get to a quarter billion sold copies eventually, it's not the game you want to compare your 3-m

Have you looked at cython? Might have been a great compromise. I saw similar gains in my code eventually, but the process to get there was very smooth. At first I could just use original python code and covert it piece by piece (of course

Google promoted it HEAVILY. TV, radio, outdoor, print, (and web of course). Must have been millions of dollars poured into advertising for Chrome. I'm not sure I've seen all that for any software, let alone a free one. Not to ment

Higher general awareness would be my guess? Regular-money people start to invest. Too bad it only works as an investment and not something useful (considering how much energy is wasted on it).

This won't block ads people put in their videos. It has to be youtube that could enforce that.
