Why do I need to sign up before playing with the theme creator? Closed the tab. What a shame.

Recently I've been building a UI builder from a schema (a json object). I try to aim for 100% code coverage, but how can you do this when you "code" is metadata. Well, I created objcov for just that. In the end, it can make s

I've only just learned about Mithril streams: https://mithril.js.org/stream.html#combining-streams No experience of using them, but they look cool for managing state.

I would realy love to know what problems you faced? Maybe they've been fixed, or are there are genuine scalability problems?

That link looks awful on a mobile browser. Isn't MailChimp supposed to make responsive emails easy. It's so bad, they have disabled pinch to zoom, so I just horizontally scroll.

Have a look at MaidSafe. It's still not production or even testnet ready, but they're getting close.

Not sure, but I really like the modal of MaidSafe where there's no blockchain to download. Instead, data is shared amount a group of peers.

If you are using Skynet for your project, I believe you need to run a node, which will require downloading the 23GB [1] blockchain from sia. I really hope these blockchain based projects can solve the sharding problem. These blockchains are

I feel like maybe the title means "improve privacy" and "improve web experiance" as a mixed list. As in, each item will be one, not both. It's a very strange list/mix up, and in my opinion a poor article. Gramm

I have one, and it's an amazing laptop. However, as Purism are focused on privacy and free (as in freedom) software, they won't put in a gpu. System76, for me, seems to have a balance between coreboot and as much free software as

Yes, all AMD chips [1] after 2013 come with an equivalent to the invasive and vulnerable Intel ME [2]. It's arguably worse, since we have some known ways to reduce the scope of the Intel ME backdoor [3]. But realistically, if you care

Pop!_OS (their own Linux distro) has DPI scaling built in. I can actually turn on x2 scaling, and while it's huge on the poor 1080 display, it works perfectly. Also a lot of the big linux distro's now have support for this. I know

> Display: 15.6″ 1920×1080 FHD, Matte Finish I really wish system76 would start giving options for 4k displays. I have a FHD display from them, only a few months old, and it's noticeably worse than my old macbook pro display.

This is one of the worst sites I've used recently: 1) Only way to get information is from a video 2) The video can't fast forward or rewind 3) No way to actually buy the "product" if there is one 4) No descriptive inform

Interesting. The real estate space just hasn't caught up with search. It's so frustrating we get such little selection when searching for properties. Choosing the angle and compass is better than anything else out there. Can you a

Yeah this was so sad, but I'm happy the guys that made it got paid. Even they would have known this was the end for Keybase. Hopefully when their non-compete clauses end the developers will make another product the same.

Yup. I try to use as little Google as possible. Maps does work without an account, and is preinstalled, so I can use it if I want. But I try to use duckduckgo maps as much as possible. Photos works just fine without an account too.

Dangerous stuff still gets in the app store [1]. The correct solution to the problem of dangerous apps, is sandboxing and elevated permissions with user consent. We've solved this in the web browser, let's solve it for apps. 1. h

Absolutely. Unfortunately at the moment it's a case of choose the best of a terrible bunch. I have really high hopes some good will come out of Purism's Librem 5 and the PinePhone.

I know I really don't matter to Apple, but this walled garden and app store dictatorship is what finally made me move away from iOS to Android last year. I had used Android in the past, but it was with Samsung Galaxy's which where
