I agree in principle, but also find myself often doing my best thinking when making coffee or just "idly" staring out of a window, and would find it annoying to be interrupted just…

True. And much of the work at ETH is conducted by foreigners, but the marketing association is still there.

It's only partially patriotism. More importantly, I suspect, just a brand that sells well, no matter what you are selling. That said, EPFL/ETH and CERN have done some important thi…

That's the thing, JWT is not an authentication protocol, that's just one (the most frequent) use-case of "transfering claims". The footguns, e.g. the choice of encrypted or not, or…

On the topic of Git Flow and simpler & faster alternatives, last month I published a short blog post about my experience learning those alternatives exist at CircleCI[1]. The most …

Chile is even worse, at least in terms of clock time, since, like Argentina, we are on UTC-3 most of the year, when geographically we should be on -5.

Since it took me a while to find the original article: https://verne.elpais.com/verne/2016/03/18/articulo/145830979...

I only evaluated hasura, haven't used it in production. What made me decide against it (it wasn't an easy decision, hasura does look cool) was the caching and scaling stories. The …

> Each hash is supposed to be unique and you cannot rewrite history with the exact same SHA-1. I thought SHA-1 wasn't considered secure?

Similar for Angel, which probably includes Ángel. I would consider them the same name. Even with the shared meaning, the pronunciation is different enough.

I think creating libs is one reason, Iirc was not supported by shadow.

Strange. I had to unpack at Schiphol two weeks ago. And go through the scanner even though I wasn't headed to the US. All in all, one of the worst airport security experiences in E…

What are the charger requirements? Mine doesn't charge with the 60W provided by my monitor.

I don't have an opinion on the benefits of schools and degrees, since I don't have one, but I am sure you could have gone work for FAANG after 4 years of autodidact learning and wo…

I am more curious how they managed to output a 1000 kHz tone through those speakers.

I get clojure.spec is primary a way to define a schema and validate against it, and that you can use it for automatic test generation, too. But I feel I fail to grok the whole exte…

Huh, TIL. As a non-native English speaker, I have always pronounced "route" as "raowt", probably influenced by the pronunciation of "router". Btw, why is it "pronUnciation", but "p…

Heh, for me ctrl-w means "extend selection to enclosing expression", which leads to the same issue in browsers.

> it's impossible to go back. I too, am learning JS in 2017, and I can't wait to go back (to cljs). Or away, to anything else. I had done some basic stuff before, but for the last …

That screenshot was taken from Firefox 53.0.3 on Linux/Cinnamon, if it helps. Maybe SVG should support hinting...

Loving the design, but they look blurry in some cases, like this from your docs: http://i.imgur.com/CBKsCGB.png Why not use an icon font as most similar projects do?

SVG works so fantastically well with React -- it's just part of the DOM, after all. Unless there are performance concerns, that reason alone would make me choose it over Canvas eve…

Since it took me a minute to figure it out (being new), you can turn on that option by clicking on your username on the top right. (I expected it to be a thread option)
