Viewing profile — decisiveness

And each time this happens, you get better about writing readable comments up front describing edge cases and difficulties so that future self can avoid steps 1 - 6 with a head sta…

> Perhaps a site that's been around for over a decade and already has mass brand recognition might not get as many people googling it bare, since most people can just... go there d…

My guess is that most companies decide to cut the cost of maintaining responsive web apps since they are already paying developers to maintain native mobile and desktop web. Becaus…

>they can’t query anything on a specific user. What exactly do you mean by "user"? Can they query DNS traffic by IP address / subnet? Exactly what are all of the restrictions there…

>APNIC gets to see the noise as well as the DNS traffic >Huston emphasised that APNIC intends to protect users' privacy. "DNS is remarkably informative about what users do, if you …

I don't think knowing exactly what parent comment is talking about is required to see that they weren't suggesting we should do away with all visualizations just because there are …

I'm not sure what posting this accomplishes, but it certainly was not intended to shame the developers, though I can see how it might be perceived that way. I am more than satisfie…

What many seem to have missed from this is the bit at the end where Fowler concedes: > I don't feel I have enough anecdotes yet to get a firm handle on how to decide whether to use…

To quote the Intel Developer Instructions[1] on the HTT flag: >A value of 0 for HTT indicates there is only a single logical processor in the package and software should assume onl…

It looks like dmidecode also contradicts itself with the hyper threading flag: $ sudo dmidecode -t processor | grep -E 'Flags:|HTT|Status|Count' Flags: HTT (Multi-threading) Status…

>Rule of thumb: On a desktop, if you have an i5 you do not have Hyperthreading. All i3s and i7s do have Hyperthreading, as do new Kaby Lake Pentiums (G4560, 4600, 4620). Hmm...eith…

Never rely on your ISP to provide great wifi equipment. This is not something specific to Comcast. Generally, it seems residential ISPs are only on the hook for providing quoted sp…

Truth or not, I'm curious to know how the high probability that all content is curated doesn't bother you? I can't find one leak that's been damaging to Putin's agenda. That doesn'…

The parallel example will definitely not work as you expect, and will likely result in most duplicate lines still being present. When using --pipe this way, if you don't declare --…

Unfortunately, "We were told the reason to track...is for fraud", does not make me very confident what you believe to be true is really true. And makes me even less confident consi…

Coupling this with the app's removal of the "While Using" location access option, given their history, it's hard to imagine Uber won't try to do something nefarious to violate thei…

Agreed, and not trying to be pedantic, but it might be more accurate to say: "If AB is a vulnerability only if B is present , then A is not a vulnerability".

One problem is that the children's IQs weren't considered in relation to the task at hand. A more useful study would have included how praise for ability and effort effect children…

3. Seems like the biggest issue to me. If you're an Uber/taxi driver you have the ability to stop the car and kick people out. Your presence is what mostly deters the riders from d…

Or, more specifically, humans are awful at estimating the intelligence of others when they assume those with a special degree are more intelligent.

This is fascinating to me. Do you consume fiction purely for analyses of the writing/acting? Of course, either of those things done poorly can quickly make one focus on the fabrica…
