> Performance is not a factor in this. What a completely ridiculous statement. Why else would anyone choose BGP if not for performance (i.e. download speed)? The choice to use BGP …

There’s a pretty good reason, actually, and it’s exactly npm. Because dependencies are managed so easily in Node, it makes no sense for Node core developers to implement more and m…

How convenient that this repo was published just a day too late. Now it’s just advertising something that it doesn’t do, either because it never did or because Google fixed it. I t…

The rendering engine of a webview is irrelevant to the end user, Edge is just as capable. What I hate is that all of these apps unnecessarily wrap a web view at all. I’m surprised …

Unless something changed lately, this is a little deceiving. If you check your own account, it finds albums and can even download some shared photos. If you check the same account …

The point of using a format over another, given the availability, is to gain performance. You're suggesting to load a whole new parser, parse images at a higher level than browsers…

By default, “npm install” also has the ability to run code after the installation, so npx is not any less safe.

I really hope this makes the news internationally because it’s shameful on Apple’s part. The best way to recycle is to reuse.

I’m in the immersion camp, but give me a table of Spanish conjugations and it’s a million times better than having to figure it out one word at a time. Additionally, for really for…

That’s not a fair comparison, at least on Android where you do have a choice to just google apps and install them from the open web. App stores are more like Zapier, where your cus…

To do that, they'd have to lower those prices. They have been the same since 2017

They took him 250km away to where the hotel is and imprisoned him there. Does that sound like he was arrested for immigration troubles or this specific defamation suit? Thai police…

Again here you're just venting about "those guys." Some laws are "the law" in Nazi Germany too (not to cite more modern examples), so it's perfectly fine to call them out.

I don’t know why this comment was downvoted. It makes sense and is right.

The difference is obviously the millions of baht flowing.

Regardless of what you said about “those guys,” which is barely relevant to the story, if we are to believe the business owners, they’re right in suing for defamation (the guy left…

Looks great, thanks! Having to guess command names however isn't great in Boop.

Ah yes sure you don’t pay Google a dime, so don’t you worry if you lose your account tomorrow, it’s not like anything is owed to you. Say bye to verroq@gmail.com

What a ridiculous situation. The guy was arrested and brought to the minuscole island because of a defamation suit. Imagine that. The article is quite light on details, so here’s a…

But Pija is not part of the name; Pij is. Italians use Fica for the female counterpart, and the national automobile company recently formed FCA. People joked about it and then ever…

Can’t most of these issues be solved by not using timezones at all on servers? All data should be UTC; timezones only apply when the data is shown to the user, possibly on the clie…

I can’t help but wonder about how someone who’s never seen would react after such an implant, once it actually reaches the market.

15 years away. Surely you could require new vehicles to be zero-emission sooner than that?

For people who don't particularly care about privacy, Firefox has nothing to offer and has a worse overall experience to Chrome. I made the switch from Chrome to Firefox a year ago…
