Well, essentially your re-layout loop would probably end up applying some specific pattern in code. Declarative UI is basically a way of doing that in a way that other developers have a better chance of understanding, and is less prone to b

Well, once you understand visual states, that XAML example starts to make much more sense. I don't think the issue with W10 development are the tools because they are generally quite damn good.

What about just agreeing that property getters should not throw? C# for example has similar code-defined properties, but the agreed and recommended practice is that property getters should never throw.

The article links to this report[1] by which SF 1-bedroom housing rents are also highest in the U.S. It's an interesting report, citing a median rent of $3,490 for 1-bedroom apartment in SF, but can someone please tell me if this is pr

I think they allowed HTTP CONNECT to any port. Not that it would have been hard to move OpenVPN or SSH to a different port.

That should be criminal, requiring users to install a root cert is just sad.. nice workaround though!

A few years back, I was assigned to work at a BigCorp's premises. They had really tight network security: all outward connections were blocked except through a dedicated HTTP proxy. This was bad news, since stuff like SSH are absolutel

Indeed, HERE has been doing this for such long time, it seems quite comical that Google is now coming out with this "new" feature – especially since offline maps were already in GMaps Android before they did the latest design over

I agree with your view that Monsanto is unlikely affected, but the article is quite misleadingly named. With "gene patent" I immediately think of Monsanto. But this ruling seems to only affect those who claim exclusive right to d

Totally agree. This is essentially a political rant about the politics of Sweden and as such pretty exaggarating. I don't quite understand why it's trending on HN.

If they allow unreviewed community edits to the map, why don't they also allow users to revert changes by others? This is how Wikipedia deals with vandalism at least.

The level of "convoluted" depends on which level you want to look at. The asm.js spec is dead-simple, almost purely "mathematical" if you like. But if you require that whatever GCC/clang would have outputted for a s

Asm.js has several benefits over NaCl. It's readily compatible with just about every browser in the market, and manufacturers just need to add some asm.js-specific optimizations to their JS runtime to fully unleash its execution power

Fair point. I think the American TLAs know that the very day they are even once caught red-handed with a bogus CA-signed cert, the browser vendors will quickly start beefing up security with measures like DANE, making any attack on HTTPS

I live in Finland, and I have never filed a tax return. The tax office here has used pre-filled annual forms since the mid 1990s, and since 2006 the pre-filled form is automatically accepted if you take no action. For me, the information ha
