I wouldn't have been bothered by this at all (including the splash), if Windows hadn't reassigned Edge as my default PDF handler. Delving into the dark guts of the default programs settings, and finding a way to…
Progressive web app. They're kind of like JavaScript-driven websites that think they're native apps. They tend to be characterised by their use of modern web standards to do some useful things, like being available…
Even with Prime, the couriers Amazon uses to service some areas take long enough to deliver that most other online retailers are preferable.
This is probably a reaction to the news that Facebook is now officially tracking non-users to create shadow profiles and serve adverts to them off Facebook itself. I think it's the serve-adverts-off-Facebook-itself part…
It'll be about the same level as respect for ticket scalping, and with about as much value added.
I seem to remember that they were using it to punish out-of-date browsers. But since I'm getting it with up-to-date Chrome, it doesn't seem to be very well targeted.
Please don't tell it to look for cockroaches again.
I got halfway through reading that, well enough absorbed, and then an invitation to subscribe popped up in the middle of my field of view and nuked my attention. When are those going to stop being popular?
When interacting with a (well-designed and indexed) database, stick as much filtering and sorting as you can in the database query, rather than using a less specific database query and then crunching the result about…
Easy. I wanted to communicate, so I decided to let that information out.
Nothing too odd, I think: I get to feel that little bit more insulated against the wacky stuff that malicious JS can do, and if I break a site I want to see, I can make an exception for it.
Out of curiosity, what simpler term would you instead use for 'acetylcholinesterase inhibitor'?
The best experience I've had so far was with the Proton Pulse Rift demo, probably because the head tracking is the only means of movement or interaction. If you're finding cockpit-based games easier to process than…
I am so glad he had the chance to see how much he and his work are appreciated, and by so many people. RIP.
He's ruined your hard-earned reputation as a slick, suave James Bond-type operator.
Try 'fun'. Why? Because Google just invited me to 'scour the Earth for fun'. No-one give Google nukes, clear?
This is an extraordinarily entertaining thing to put rude words into.
Not now it got Hacker News-bombed it can't.
I had no idea there was a patented way to compute the absolute value of an integer. Insane.
It's quite a feat to invent a normal academic test where higher grades imply a thicker student.
Some of humanity's best toys have come from a bit of harmless science fantasy, so I'm all for it here. Speculation tends to break down when dealing with anything beyond a decade, anyway.
... has anyone told Kieran?
