Good lord, I am surprised they haven't disabled realdonaldtrump over the course of this election and presidency. Not to ruin the attention or users it draws, but just because they can.

Art is up to taste, so as a critic it's easier to recognize something as art that maybe you don't partake or enjoy, like post-modern literature, Jackson Pollock paintings, or anti-art, than to fail to recognize it at all. That is

You can look up IBM's Cell design and try to gain some understanding from former PlayStation 3 game developers if you want to get a background on this. The major difference is that the PPE and SPE's have the same clock speed, but

Since this article relies on the premise that a "10 X" programmer makes any sense, I'm going to spend time refuting that central point. If programmer productivity, or software developer/software engineer productivity, is

Why would you want a 10X programmer when you could find an X^2 one? It is a pop psychology concept and it has no use.

About as "fast" as a helicopter at a stable altitude, or to fit with the no-atmosphere bit, a stationary jetpack or lunar lander (on Earth).

What's also amazing is that this specific Google vulnerability was disclosed to Google and discussed on this website before that leak.

This is pretty astonishing considering the Uber exec's personality is not exactly held in highest esteem, that even he thought it was unpopular to be affiliated with Trump. I guess the power and potential wealth isn't enough to ba

I understand that people believe Trump is good for business. And I also understand that people believe Trump is good for the rich. And I also understand that people believe Trump is good for the blue-collar worker. But I don't understa

I'm not sure on the Chrome implementation, but I think all of the visible tabs would be foreground, not background. So the issue would be refreshing when changing tabs. (And also communicating between visible tabs).

The fact that you don't have a backend is the limiting factor here.

Here's an example: http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/ Opening another tab creates a new bakery, not a view into the same bakery. (This only works if you haven't played before or clear your cookies.) Edi

If it opens in multiple tabs, then it isn't a pure SPA. (Relying on the browser tabs instead of tabs in your application.) If you have several tabbed views, then you would include tabs in your application.

What are you supposed to do? Implement it as a single page application.

I find that the search giant goes through cycles where I can find results that I'm looking for and not being able to find anything at all. For example, let's say I've seen a page on the Internet one year ago, and I remember t

In the long term I can see it being a huge social tool (to the point where people might regularly meet their significant other in a virtual environment, if the rendering is accurate enough). I think I understand the thou

You can use either Unity or Unreal Engine - both are free to develop. They cut into your returns, though. Some people are talking about app building. Unity and Unreal 4 are both game engines which means they run simulations. Since they use

Because VR games are so physical, gaming will no longer be perceived as an unhealthy activity. I could have used this growing up. I don't see this panning out ever. If "virtual reality" went beyond being r

You know, Google seems to attract a lot influential technologists that don't necessarily have a role in their organization. I guess it makes sense that other companies do this as well.

Not related to the article much - The 10X developer concept is a bit flawed. If only because computer scientists and students understand that a linear co-efficient is borderline meaningless in measuring algorithmic performance, it seems to

Then why doesn't Google find some terms or change their terms or policy that clearly indicates why they are taking down the extension? It doesn't make sense to mislead the extension developers by giving them a nonsense reason for

I'm interested in knowing why the Python and C components communicate with HTTP, beyond reading about the bugfix. Wouldn't it be easier to use sockets or files or some other mechanism to integrate the two languages? Just something

There are plenty of online trading platforms. Just look for one with cheap ($5?) commissions and you can probably get your first trades for free. There are some brokers that are free with some stipulations: https://www.nerdwallet

Hm, iOS 10 seemed more like a feature release than a security one. I've finally stopped getting update notifications after I rolled back my phone. Update: Still getting nuisance notifications.
