I didn't see this mentioned on their site anywhere / had to Google it. The truck is $52,000.. I can't imagine picking that over a Tundra for $31,120.

I don't think using caps helps your argument. Just saying that something isn't working doesn't mean there is a better option, either. Do you think there would be a different outcome if everyone pulled out of China completely

It seems from my perspective that Cook knows that technology alone will help expand viewpoints of people within China, which will ultimately lead to more democracy in general. I think it's unfair to assume that if Apple was to outright

You seem to have misunderstood the parent here. They are saying that at their company, they are doing this (_not_ as a library or product you can purchase). Parent was saying that to implement it, they essentially wrote their REST API by gr

You found it to be fast in comparison to vim and emacs? I am surprised to hear someone say this. I also think it is plenty fast for my needs, but certainly not faster than vim or emacs. Did you mean fast in terms of performance, or in terms

Just wanted to chime in and say that as a Go developer of almost 5 years now, running into Rusts' compiled examples has been quite cool. The cool thing about these is that you can actually (depending on the situation) make your example

There is a good reading about greenhouses on Mars here by NASA[1], also this seems to (obviously) be an active area of research for them. There is talk of them trying to put a small greenhouse on Mars by 2021[2] [1] https://www.n

Personally, I don't think that will really help. People care most about what directly affects them, and unless we're hoping Mars will have such a large colony that majority of people on earth are going back and forth between the t

Living on a foreign planet would surely have a _much greater profound impact_ on you, but the profoundness isn't what is important. It's the type of a profound impact that matters. As an example, let's say you grew up only in

Also, one reason I am excited about WebAssembly is because it is a low-level target for compiled languages that is also cross-platform. I know others exist, too, but I think this being the web will cause more and more people to get into w

This is a great example of how much faster WebAssembly can be for some applications! On the topic of video editing, though, this will be even faster still once WebAssembly supports threads[1] [1] https://github.com/WebAssemb

(Sourcegraph dev here) Just to be clear, the Sourcegraph Editor is built on top of Visual Studio Code, not just Monaco. Although we did use just Monaco on the website (not editor) in the past. :)

Personally I do not think "simple to set up and use" is the most important part there: it's the price. I would love to play around with VR, but I'm not going to shell out $600+ for such a device when I don't know ho

In all honesty... Walmart offers exactly what you're talking about[1]. Order your groceries online, pick them up at their store. None of the fancy organic-attitude stuff you talked about, either. [1] https://grocery.walmart.

This doesn't do what parent was talking about. This opens two separate windows, each representing a project. Any editor can do this. Parent meant opening two projects in the same window. This is the number one reason I do not use VS Co

Does windows provide an updater for apps..? I bet they don't on XP or 7, which are still highly used. Also, I bet it's far easier to write an auto-updater than it is to figure out each OS's update method (building a deb,rpm,e

I'm curious: In your mind, what is the difference between 'hiring a freelancer' and 'paying a bounty to someone who comes with the answer'? I'd suggest to you odesk.com, but that is a site for hiring freelancer

I believe the author is using the term 'natively' here to describe the project being written purely in Go, rather than using CGO (i.e. being a wrapper to some database written in C). I agree 'written purely in Go' would

I'm not aware of any such feature. You can set up a monthly deposit into your Robinhood account, and you'll get a notification on your phone each time it goes through, but you have to manually submit purchase requests each time as

Doesn't sound like it. The video mentions their annual performance review process still being a 'big deal' and that it is still where raises and bonuses are determined.

At this point, doesn't the word "hacker" just mean "somebody who is good at computers"?
