I don't want to watch any ads. Anywhere, ever.

That doesn't matter. Torrent websites don't host or distribute any content, yet they still get shut down. Not opposing you, just saying your argument isn't enough.

Too bad content creators put ads directly into the videos.

Much less lethal though, look at recent spike in US opioid deaths due to black market products of questionable content and quality.

RHEL7 "runs on" Python 2 and is to be supported at least until 2024, so I don't think Python 2 is going away.

They didn't selectively choose this media organization, they did it for every single page. Users still have choice to see the content, if they are interested. I would argue that engagement should be higher if people actively opt in to

Hiding spam is not a threat to the public good.

Is Google limiting freedom because it automatically hides "spam" in mail? Spam in quotes because it's spam that the user has subscribed for. It's absolutely the same concept. It's beneficial to the users and Faceboo

I'm fairly certain I saw this posted maybe an hour ago with comments and enough points to see it on the first page?

Note that this is from Beta so there's a possibility it differs from the actual release.

Can you verify that the resolution picker is no longer ordered by total number of pixels? How anyone ever thought this was a good idea? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B7p7ellIIAAbSHX.png:large

I've tried a simple sentence > How are you this fine morning? and didn't recognize anything - I was expecting "you" and "(this) morning" to be highlighted - but perhaps I misunderstood the example. This htt

Ordered by their product. I kid you not, that is how Fedora/Gnome had ordered resolution selection dropdown - by the total number of pixels.

Regarding the place of birth issue, I have never used the country I was born with when some form asked for birthplace. Always used the present state, i.e. in what country is the place I was born at. Is that not common? Would you expect some

Opera used to have its own debugging/inspection tool[1] as well. It was released in 2008, it was open-source[2] (unlike the browser), didn't required plugins like firebug at the time, had handy remote debugging, overall I enjoyed

Neither of those product pages has a photo of the keyboard. I know they are trying to sell it as a surface device with other great input methods, but come one, people still want to type on their notebooks.

I can vouch for pygal, if you can find what you need in the set it provides. I found it quite hard to customize some elements of it (ended up doing post-processing on the output SVG).

I don't think that's enough, according to the video at least.

If performance is your only motivation, I recommend you have a look at cython (previously pyrex). It basically makes writing C modules a breeze for a python programmer because you write them in type annotated python. Regular python is trans

And they do the same thing phone companies do, don't support the device. I have a camera with wifi that got a shitty remote app on release and that's it. There is so much potential with remote controls, but no.. it can only take p

Many positions that require higher education (unlike software engineering) don't even touch those figures in some EU countries. Or is Taipei that expensive? edit: saw the comment bellow

> it's kind of been down hill in terms of software updates I don't think this is accurate. Even phones that were released during Google's ownership didn't receive any updates (during Google's ownership or after).

Sublime Text works as a simple code editor as well, while Atom has start-up times not far from those of Visual Studio. Opening files in a running instance of ST is virtually instantaneous. Not sure if it is even possible with Atom.

> They have less than 50% of market share, so no. They have the 2nd/3rd biggest share (and not like the first one has over 50% either). Sounds major to me.
