That seem really cheap doesn't it?

Lack of sleep makes it a bad time for me to read this. But if the client generates the key does it mean it's stored on the browser or something like that? It means that I will need a sync/copy procedure if I'm going to use it

Can someone explain the risk factor? It cannot be remotely exploited or though browser if I'm reading it right. But a malicious program with user level access can get kernel access. So exposure to malware running on a limited account c

Not sure reading the article why would I need the computer. The way I read it, you enter the key to any computer and it logs in to the account of the key owner. Am I wrong?

Yes Nvidia is on the lead very strongly right now. So tell me again why do they need to depend on ASUS and other brands to highlight their product and remove those branding from competition? That is doubly morally repugnant to me. Nvidia ha

Does anyone know of good libraries to gauge password strength or find easy password. I'm conflicted between using all leaked password vs. simply excluding super popular and well known pattern. Not sure exactly what measure to take to s

The bigger problem to me is not even the note taking but that the touch screen for page turning is such a worse experience that I can't understand any reason for it beyond fad. A page turning button in the right place (on both side) me

320 bytes? Doesn't that seem excessive or am I missing something.

In this case though the core innovation actually happened pre-facebook. Post facebook it got more polish/tweaking/multi-threading etc. but I don't recall any breakthrough kind of change.

Hmm I read that. And I was wondering if that meant in future that open it up. Now I'm wondering if this is essentially doing the coding outside core firefox project with the later plan to just integrate it fully into the browser. Almos

I saw this couple of days ago with Mozilla roadmap. But I have been wondering about few things. 1. Why firefox only? 2. Why encryption is limited to Firefox account. Such lock-in with firefox doesn't make sense to me with Mozilla'

The police's quick defense of Uber and their completely inaccurate comment about the pedestrian jumping in front of the car out of the shadow doesn't make sense to me except for collusion. A cursory look at even Uber's dashca

It's slightly different though. Even if FDA was lax, the participants would be volunteers. This victim though didn't have any say in joining Uber's trial.

I don't really understand a whole of similar comments. It's as if Uber and all other autonomous driving pursuer is doing so for the betterment of life for everyone and so their laziness in making sure their tech is good enough can

Thanks for confirming it. I expected this to be true but assumed I would only be sure when someone releases a product or blogs about an impending one. I also assume freed from generating the basic metric and the lightweight recording infras

I am really to see this finally going in having hard about this in last JavaOne. My biggest hope is to see other build on top of this. E.g. - frameworks, libraries, web-servers exposing their metric through this. Some building other ways to

There's really no comparison between them is there? Regular profiler has their usage but don't they change the runtime characteristic a lot specially in tight loop and cpu bound situations? The biggest advantage of JFR are two fol

That's what I believe too. Thing's are always harder to implement than you believe at first as a developer I know that. But even than the only explanation I can think of gmail's heaviness is not caring. In some ways it's

by tmd83 9y ago
And what functionality does it provide for that tons of javascript? I am asking honestly because most of the magic of gmail (which I love) is on the server side. The functionality that it has on the client side is trivial and in some cases

I might have missed it but didn't find that in the release note. Could there be language changes that are not part of this release note?

Beyond housekeeping could only find one real big changes that is parallel full GC for G1. That's a big one in controlling the worst case.

This is one thing I absolutely don't understand. Phone makers should be sued to oblivion (and I'm saying this someone who is not fond of the litigation culture of US in general) for making a portable device that is essentially des

This. For this you just need the origin though. There's an origin header for 10 years which makes CSRF protection so trivial yet its still not available in all browsers. Firefox can leak referer in regular mode but can't send orig

As I read it the parent is for it. He is actually saying it should be always the mode not just for private browsing.

I would assume facebook and such social network would love fake news, puffed up news since they are more likely to be sensational, raise controversy, get people talking/sharing. A win win for them. Who cares if it's right/wro

It's bad in one sense on the other hand that they are doing it but it's kind of nice that Apple wasn't able to do anything about it. It's hard to figure out which one should you support. But I did like that J, quite the

Impressive but yeah I don't really get that quote. Look at cricket just because I know it. It don't have the fight with other players but talk about the reflex time needed for the close catch, athleticism and presence of mind to m
