Same with web content most of this content is likely still somewhere . While you and I have no access too it someone does, whether they'll share it with us is another thing all together.

I've yet to see The Martian, but have read the book and found it pretty reasonable for the behaviour of all characters, I guess the advantage of a book is that the author can describe the internal thoughts of a character much more clea

Are they actually complaining that using a transpiler needs configuration? Also if-it-ain't-broke-don't-upgrade-it? If they liked Babel v5 why jump on v6?

I thought prior art only worked for published (prior) art? E.g. I can't claim I invented something before you if I never published/released my invention? Edit: Literally the first two paragraphs of wikipedia: https://en

You need about 1000 more pictures before I'd go anywhere near the buy button on one of these. What's the inside like? How's it laid out? How much beer can I fit inside it? If I have a weeks worth of clothes stuffed in there c

IF you have telstra/optus cable running long your power poles you might as well sign up for it now and settle for disappointment as that now counts as you access to the NBN.

>Paypyrus is versatile like cash But with none of the security, what a useful idea... Could I not just print the same dollar twenty times then it's a race to see who redeems it first? Cute idea though I guess.

Of note guys there's a little ! icon button in the top of the page to report this gist. It's basically encouraging spam and as everyone has pointed out, is likely not technically sound.

Nice but needs some form of clean up running as the animation slows down more and more. A quick peak at the code shows there's a platform to catch the letter but there doesn't appear to be a clean up to delete them after?

Minor point but I'm fairly certain Telstra NextG is a 4G network.

Not really actually, I was going to recommend Solarized[1] and base16[2] but both fail to pass AAA according to WAVE[3]. I'd recommend installing the WAVE extension for Chrome or Firefox as a start point. [1] http://ethansch

Nice but the diff's fail contrast levels for accessibility. I have trouble with contrast and I can barely read the diffs and certainly wouldn't use it for any serious amount of time.

One thing this gets right that heaps of other WYSIWYG's get wrong is lists. You can create a proper multi-level list here with order and unordered lists nested inside each other correctly. This sort of stuff is actually important for c

It would indeed be lucrative and I'm sure they have at least a group or two researching exactly that. Thinking of it now my comment missed the availability of iron on seam tape which is used for water proofing but as I understand it is

I've heard (and believe) this too but does anyone have any decent sources for it? I find the portrayal of Bush in the media interesting as while he played the fool regularly, there's no way he got to POTUS without being a smart op

You need to look harder then, we tick all three and even use Gitflow. With back ups used all the time for testing live state locally and a CI 1-click (well 5 or 6 actually...) deploy to Test/Stage/Prod.

Note that this £240 billion will have the overheads of running the welfare system built into it too. So the actual pension checks are only a percentage of that figure, with a basic income that's not means tested the government has far
