About that map, a feature I would like is to fade spots which were scanned long time ago because WiFi access points might not last as long as cell towers. This way, as a contributor, I know in which areas to scan and,…
The problem is that anything is "abuse" nowadays. When you have a cohort of people brought up with a daily dose of "you're perfect", "you're a winner", "all of you are the smartest kids in the world", a single tweet of…
That annoying scroll-to-top happens to me too and I use the latest Firefox version on Ubuntu. I first noticed it several months ago. Also, some time ago, when you clicked a message to view it's context, Twitter would…
TL;DR: BitTorrent being the reason doesn't sound so interesting for a Vice article. As a person who helped build a "district ISP network" back in the early 2000s, I can tell you that that reason is just some Vice.com…
On the other hand, do you think that python should use "df" instead of "def"?
Bikeshed or not, he's not the only one who doesn't like "fn" choice. The shortnaming choices aren't really consistent. IMHO, "fun" would be better. as box break continue crate else enum extern false fn for if impl in…
Python is a dynamic language and a compiler can't do much in helping you move from 2 to 3. You really need good test coverage.
Is it me, or does it seem that there's an inflation of "death to the gamer" articles in the last couple of weeks? "Gamers are over" - Gamasutra "The death of the 'gamers'" - Ars Technica "Death of an identity" - Kotaku…
Tell that to people of Eastern Europe, where 10 years ago it was a free-for-all build-your-network without any regulation or state intervention. At one time I had half a dozen ISPs at my door to choose from, from…
Is a Mac needed in order to compile?
"the consequences of his actions." So I guess that he is fine with a company fireing, let's say, an employee who donated to Obama's compaign because... consequences of his actions, right? To be honest, his reasoning…
So all people who don't confirm to your social norms are fucking assholes? Btw, did you ever travel to countries like Germany or Czech Republic? People there do stare. A lot. Nations of assholes, I guess. I wonder what…
Instead of becoming an ISP, wouldn't it make more sense for the town to wire up each house with fiber optics and then let ANY company provide services over those cables? The ISPs will have to pay the town a flat fee per…
Yes, in Eastern Europe the "wealth gap" was very small during the communism. We all had money. Actually we all had plenty of money... too bad that it was only useful to wipe our ass with it. On the other hand, some…
Like, you know, actual scientists?
How about the "glass floor"?
Eastern Europe, especially Bulgaria and Romania, would beg to differ about the "free market fails if left alone". Between 2000 and 2010 it was basically a free-for-all for ISPs and each city had almost dozens of them…
