In HK village houses the spiders are outside ... we look for snakes swimming up from septic tanks (yes they are still used even in some new village houses) or coming through bath drain that goes to outside drain (yes still a thing).

You need to be mobile subscriber to that network or else pay per use e.g if booth is China Telecom then if you have CT mobile service the "hotspot" is bundled. If you are say a CMCC user then you can pay to use after registering.

Parent of the year winner! Wish my Dad made one of these for me but we used a pushchair pulled by an excitable dog. Less power but just as dangerous

Action button looks to me they finally realized how good the blackberry action button was. Only took 20 years. Can we have the optical pointer back as well so we don't have to jab all over the glass which is slow and imprecise?

It's their JS UI components library. Gets used in oracle apps. Very comprehensive in terms of covering all you need. Another comment opines on its technical soundness.

To avoid "trade mark infringement" all the JS runtime owners could just make theirs not work on any oracle app or domain with a big annoying message about the case.

Numbers speak for themselves but I was surprised at the higher level of VC funding available in Stockholm. Patience, long term thinking, readiness to look offshore and adaptability all seem good qualities for any business and more so in cur

I wonder how this compares to the zig-to-C translate function. Zig seems to be awesome at creating mixed environs of zig for new code and C for old, and translating or interop, plus being a C compiler. There must be some very good reasons

Pragmatism is central tenet of Buddhism. Has been thus since Gothama. Do not "believe"; learn, try, experience and then understand. About 2000 years before Americans. But maybe I'm biased or ignorant. Happy to be enlightened

It's an amazing solution. Personally I would go for index cards and a pencil. No noise, no light, and knowing my own tech limitations no stress of having to remember how to use something in middle of the night. But yours is wonderfully

Would love to see results of all such prior-art research work going to EFF and patent offices to build a database for troll-crushing by anybody who needs it. Once refutation is made much easier and far less expensive then is much harder for
