I also think the OP should have a look at Mithril. When I was in his situation I also was overwhelmed by the tooling and boilerplate necessary for those other frameworks. But with Mithril I was able to start developing after skimming the do

It is not only technology which enables this new wave of mass surveillance, it is also that people believe the "if you don't do any bad ..." bs again. Our governments wouldn't stop their surveillance programs even if we

I don't think this is meant to be an apprenticeship. This is more a tertiary education. There is a similar system in Germany which is called "Berufsfachschule", which could be translated with "university of cooperative e

This kind of "legalese bs" happens all the time in Switzerland and you won't find a lot of people believing Switzerland is on a brink of a violent government overthrow. Referendums are usually a mandate to the parliament to i

It is the same screenplay as in Switzerland and their MEI referendum [1]. Difference is just that the Brits managed to trash all lot of porcelain before they will blink. [1] https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/s

I don't believe that the Streisand effect is a common outcome, not even for especially ridiculous cases.

Since Win8, if a relative, who only needs a browser and a word processor, asks me to reinstall his computer for him I just install Ubuntu without asking and telling. Most can't tell the difference and no one switched later to Windows.

Dexie.js [1] is doing that and is one of the most undervalued projects I work with. [1] http://dexie.org/

By my gut feeling this happened this summer. I haven't found any project which wasn't available in Python 3 in the last three months and therefore stumbled upon some which don't support 2 anymore. Also newer answers on SO now

Considering the throw-away account you did already knew that your comment is trash. Why did you waste those bytes anyway?

Thank you for mentioning intercooler.js. After skimming through the docs for five minutes I am sure I will use this regularly from now on.

That is great. I am working on a project where I require a font which includes all (or at leas as much as possible) unicode symbols. Until now I was thankful that I could use GNU unifont as a fallback, even if it was ugly. But this will mak

Who do you mean with "they" and what is "something"?

This doesn't make any sense. You will have attack cyber weapons, but at the same time you risk that your enemies can use the same weapon against the infrastructure you are there to protect. Collecting attack weapons, but letting your d

I didn't say "always". But apart from that, people do not always choose the most optimal solution for a problem. There are many reasons people might be using cars in a city although they are not the optimal way of transportat

Blender is great. The best thing for me is that you can automate everything. The API is very good.

Pissing against the wind and complaining about complaining is ok now, because this thread is at the bottom now, where it belongs and if somebody is scrolling down so far he might be looking for stuff like this.

There are lots three letter agencies which are not external intelligence agencies, like the DEA or FBI. External intelligence agencies would be kind of an exemption. But not in the case of the CIA, as they give information to internal intel

Dear downvoters, cool down. The question targeted the fact that most people do accept illegal acquisition of information as long as they agree with the purpose, but strongly object breaking the law if they do not support the purpose, like f

Does this stronger "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine of the US does apply for all those three letter agencies in your opinion? Or just for the RSI?

Do you also have a problem with illegal wire tapping if as a result a terrorist attack is prevented? Or paying money to an informant (possibly an insider) to uncover drug traffickers?

You will not find companies producing hardware in Switzerland (apart maybe of Logitech). This would be much to expensive, but there are a lot of companies which have their R&D departments in Switzerland. Also Switzerland strengths, like
