> If you live in an area and work in a field where more white men are qualified for the work available than other colour-sex groups then you probably act in a racist and sexist manner then. Thats quite a bold assumption. I don't see

This. I find it hard to deal with the new wave feminists as well as the very vocal group of anti-feminists. IMHO the quality of the debate is a function of people on both sides being stuck in their filter bubbles, a phenomenon which can be

Most of what the device is 'supposed' to be doing is quite clear from watching the video. But leaving the wind to decide which path to take and clear in a given environment won't allow the people in affected areas to solve th

Thank you @eezis for linking to Kennetts blogpost. What a painfully sad story. Lets hope that Adelaide recovers completely and the driver won't be allowed behind another steering wheel. Just yesterday afternoon I had another reckless d

This is a great project idea. Riding in Berlin I experience close calls on almost a daily basis. Networking with other riders could be a very empowering tool in an environment that many times makes you feel helpless and without proper means

It might make more sense to open an issue on the projects issue tracker and ping the maintainers there. Judging by the activity on the tracker I doesn't seem that the project was abandoned: https://github.com/keithw&#x

What I do is simply copy the `curl foo | sh` oneliner into a text editor which does not run in a shell, and then copy the line from there into the console. This does not save you from downloading the script and actually auditing that it do

I understand where you are coming from, and the critique may be valid for e.g. commercial projects that need to distinguish themselves from competition. This is an open source project for home automation though. Similar to bootstrap polyme

Thx for taking this seriously. I guess my words were a bit harsh (which earned me a downvote, probably righfully so). My critique still stands though. I created a test account on taiga.io. It allowed me to use an unsafe, short password. Loo

I was in a similar situation. As a long time thinkpad user, the first thing I did was check out Lenovos current thinkpad lineup and was also very disappointment by the hardware and screen quality. After several weeks of comparisons I simpl

This looks really useful! The only thing that put me off and made me mistrust the quality of the content of a design related how-to, is the typographical choices made for such a text heavy site. A font size of 14 px and a line-height of 2

Using such a small sample size to draw any relevant conclusions is indeed a weird methodology. If their findings were to be true, I would surely try it out. For now this rather looks like one of those nutrition recommendations that have no

That would be which? Does the plugin send every search request made to google to the omniref servers? Did you have a look at the implementation? @timr could you give some more info on how you accomplish this?
