    I do work with web projects, but I hardly live in github, sure it's an important tool and I tend to visit the site quite often especially if I'm working, but I see no need to keep …

    See that "you don't remember to close them down" part gets me, or rather doesn't. I mean I have a lot of tabs open when I'm working, but at the end of the day I close my browser an…

    Not bunnyhopping, but similar idea a game called Gunz: The Duel had many animation glitches where you could cancel animation lock with higher priority move. The action would execut…

    I hear quite a few people talking how they have 30-50 tabs open, how do people manage something like that? And why would anyone need so many simultaneous tabs open?

    Unless Firefox opens sites instantly (instead of 1-2 sec wait) then I don't see any speed benefit. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the author probably has a lot of heavy ad…

    I like the idea and the price isn't too bad either on it's own, but then I would have to get wifi lamps and a wifi coffee machine and a wifi door lock... I think I'll pass for now

    They talk about ensuring that open source works on the machine, anyone else concerned if they will try to inhibit close source software? Like this whole shitstorm around GCC?

    Yeah, I'm not aerospace engineer, but couldn't you just put the roof like 10 cm above the rotors so it has enough air flow?

    I wonder if you could just create some kind of roof over the rotors, thus negating the "attack".

    This might be a bit of a stretch, but if you were to send in plain text just something meta-ish like datetime and the actual message would be sent as image for example, could we ge…

    Also there doesn't seem to be anything that is actually "countering" anything at the moment

    I actually think Azure is nice platform, but they've effectively priced me out. What I mean is that if I want a basic VPS on Azure it costs ~10€/mo to run the server for the month,…

    At first Oculus seemed like a cool idea, but you can really only play "simulator" games with it, games where you sit in a vehicle otherwise it ruins the VR feel and you might as we…

    I just wonder if she could've easily fixed all the issues by changing her mouse or how she hold it instead of opting for this nose-touch-pad. If she is still doing thous 11-15 hour…

    Am I missing something obvious here? What would change if this piece of software/algorithm was ported to Ruby? I mean Rubyists would get to use it, but what else would change? This…

    This isn't really a new concept, but previously I've seen this attack used from USB memory sticks which modified firmware. The idea being that you could use them as sort of dead dr…

    As I said I have no idea what they did and maybe I'm just being naive, but $1 million per year seems like plenty to keep a website online.

    That still doesn't answer how to managed to spend $4 million a year

    I don't know what it is, but I feel same about programming as achieving anything else in my life; if I can do it, so can everyone else. I know how much effort I put into things, li…

    Maybe they could start building apartments which would be open for rent for public as well?
