The weird thing is their web version / chrome app never has the state problems for me. But the mobile version on iOS screw s up regularly. I'll reach the end of my feed with the "a…

The stack trace contains the stacks of all the goroutines. The running goroutine which caused the panic is printed first, so it should be pretty easy to find the source of the prob…

Ideally by the time we get to that point of surveillance we'll have sufficiently advanced self-driving vehicles such that driving infractions will no longer be a thing. Most financ…

What's the problem? The users can just download the same browser if they're really interested in the additional functionality.

From the article: "This may seem confusing at first, but makes sense since TLS is just a minor update to SSL 3.0. Subsequent versions of TLS have followed this pattern. Since TLS i…

Yeah, but it's one I found I often neglected in the past. I ended up buying a Roomba since it was on sale and it's worked out quite well. It's not perfect at vacuuming but on avera…

$99? That's well in to "shut up and take my money!" territory. I've long wanted to buy a GoPro for the occasional kayaking / climbing / skiing footage but there was no way I could …

Car2go also has a $14.99 / hour maximum, so you could potentially drive it a lot more and for multiple stops. No way you could hire an UberX to drive you around the city for an hou…

Why would you send a string which is not valid utf8 over the wire in your system? That's the kind of validation that should probably be done prior to that. Or if it hasn't, you can…

You're comparing apples to automobiles. The documentation and video accompanying the Swift announcement was the official promotional materials and guides. The document linked here …

That's not been my experience, often it helps to add more context to errors as they propagate through the layers. Unless you control the entire stack of function calls top to botto…

Isn't someone going by the handle "rubyn00bie" criticizing an article with "call me maybe" in the title as being juvenile something akin to the pot calling the kettle black?

"Enhanced application development, delivery, portability and isolation through Linux Containers, including Docker, across physical, virtual, and cloud deployments as well as develo…

What's even weirder is that with the Apple Store app you can scan your own items and just walk out of the store. Haven't tried it with anything really expensive, but I bought an iP…

Obvious and discoverable. I never even realized the time was a link, and I use the twitter web UI every day.

As a user with an account, I also struggle with linking to tweets. The process right now is something like this: 1. See tweet in timeline, click the "expand" link in the lower left…

A quantum computer.

> Working at POF is like working at McDonalds. It's temporary. Pay is anemic for even the people who control the site, so they'll bounce once something better comes along. I don't …

I don't really see any problem with alcohol at work events in general, but I think it heavily depends on your company culture. The (~40 person) company I worked at before had beer …

Mocks (or I guess fakes, really) can be useful for simulating certain scenarios that are difficult to produce in real life but your code needs to handle. For example if in an integ…
