    There are copy/paste buttons on Gboard, but they're kind of hidden. Press the 4 squares in the top left of the keyboard and select Text Editing. You get arrow keys, a button for to…

    The language is Dutch, the collection of dialects spoken in the Flanders region is Flemish. If you're feeling charitable, you can refer to it as a language variant. Here is the con…

    You may have Gateron Clears, which are lighter than Gateron Browns. Gateron Browns are basically equivalent to Cherry MX Browns, but Gateron Clears are entirely different from Cher…

    Regardless of how the court case turns out, I can't see this whole affair ending well for Grsecurity. They need good PR with the exact people that are likely to side against them i…

    That's how the Snapchat Spectacles work: one side contains the camera, bluetooth and other electronics, the other side contains the battery.

    The trick of entering a dummy username and password, which is then modified in the post request sounds a whole lot better than playing clipboard roulette or messing with the DOM.

    vim-airline requires you to use a patched font that replaces certain little-used unicode characters with shapes that airline uses to draw its UI. Specifically, those looking divide…

    Interesting concept, but I don't expect it to be used commercially anytime soon, because of how slow it makes the page load. Then again, maybe your site being annoyingly slow for p…

    We already have software that can change on its own. Neural nets are software too, and with things like backpropagation they can update their weights, essentially changing themselv…

    I could very well be missing some aspect, but I'm not really seeing the added challenge here. Tic Tac Toe is easily solved, and playing this game by selecting the optimal 2 moves i…

    It's not something that vim explicitly allows, it's a side-effect of running the editor in a terminal. When you paste into a terminal, it's as if the keys are actually being presse…

    Rebinding jk to escape because escape is too far away seemed like a fairly ugly hack to me, especially because you can't type it anymore without waiting. Why not simply rebind caps…

    It really is a bug which has evolved into a feature. Portal 2 features bunnyhopping, and it was released more than 10 years after the first games to feature it, so you can assume t…

    Same here. More and more websites seem to target only Chrome (or Webkit), it's the IE6 situation all over again.
