Using uBlock requires reenabling it every time the browser launches, since unpacked extensions are disabled automatically each session. There is no documentation on how to package an extension to make it stick; this knowledge seems to be re

You're right, my version is unoptimized because I was trying to keep the code neat as in the article. I think that optimizing the code for hypothetical future reuse is a bit premature. You could make a performance argument, but this op

The author doesn't mention that the grid being initalized is square, and simply describes it as grid[rows][cols]. However, all his solutions are only correct for a square grid. One solution for arbitrary dimensions could be for (

This seems plausible to me, but Rob is known for being pretty hostile to clever ideas for "fixing" Go. I really like the idea of using make instead of new, following the familiar ergonomics of the function ("create a variable

Windows' Remote Desktop feature is different from regular screen sharing. It's able to transmit data at a lower level than the actual pixels on screen, making it a lot faster.

As others in the NYT and HN comments have said, the best parenting strategy seems to depend on the psychology of the kid. My parents were more or less in the pussycat camp, which led me to put an enormous amount of pressure on myself as I f

I have the opposite experience. I tend to click on content that I disagree with, to investigate the claims being made, and don't engage much with content I already know I agree with. As a result, my feed is more or less a list of posts

The complexity of email isn't a problem for the average end user who uses someone else's mail server (like me). It's a problem because anyone who wants to interface with email directly takes on the burden of the complexity, m

Email is tremendously complex, uses multiple protocols to accomplish different tasks (or even the same task), and is fundamentally vulnerable to spam and can only be patched with further complex hacks like SPF. Almost everyone now uses HTML

One big difference between psychiatry and other areas of medicine is that other areas of medicine do not base every diagnosis on a single manual (the DSM).

It's really not too bad; just edit the config.h, "make", and put the binary somewhere in your $PATH. Changing the font, colors, keybindings, etc just requires modifying some strings and arrays.
