Presumably this flaw explains why zip files are so obscure and difficult to use. (Yeah it's no great but clearly it's not been an issue)
I'm not a fan of BAD change.
Who does that?
Ultimately a clear majority of the UK population is in favor of leave. This has increased since the vote as the lies of the remain campaign proved not to be true. Much of the remain support is concentrated in a handful…
What exactly are people using the linux shell for? It's fun, but given that you can't easily access windows files and you can't use it to run things like the visual C++ compiler you can't easily use it to script windows…
Bitcoin seems to be going through an issue at the moment where many transactions are taking hours to complete due to a large backlog. This might be transient but when I ask any questions about so what happens if volume…
People STILL confuse the construction of software with the construction of buildings. We can estimate fairly accurately how long it will take to build a building once we have reasonable plans for it. I can pretty…
Yeah sure. But it's not a good solution really. First of all I don't really want to pay any more. Secondly, if everyone has to do this in order to get their transactions processed in a reasonable time, then nobody is…
As others have said "mining" is really not a good name for what is happening. What the miners are really doing is the work that is necessary to confirm and secure the transactions. When they do that, if they are the…
I've had transactions waiting for 8 hours now for a confimation. And some more new ones this morning for 3 hours now without a single confirmation. All of these contains the default fees added by the clients and which…
This looks good to me. It looks like it is not just another bitcoin clone, it has genuine, and well thought out improvements. I'll probably try it out unlike all the others.
A whole article about why space elevators would be better than rockets with only the slight problem that we don't know of any way to build one with any materials we have. If we are allowed to do that, I think we should…
If you have windows "Pro".... Which most people won't have.
I think we should define a low level learning virtual machine. Basically something like a C64 but updated to be a bit more modern. Have a virtual 4 core CPU that runs a fake machine code, have memory mapped IO so that…
> It did one thing and did it better than anything else of the same era I would argue that it still does. It's not a great language, but to just get something working I still can't think of anything better that doesn't…
Spoiler: Because they are more interested in pushing their own politics than helping people.
I don't think they got this right. It's easy to find terms with hindsight that correlated well with what happened (even if you test that prediction with some of your data and reject ones that didn't work). It's not so…
Agree entirely with all this. You know what you get with C and it just works as you expect always. I always feel refreshed after writing C. There are perhaps a few very minor enhancements I'd suggest, but I'd be very…
Really, it doesn't do IPv6? How could they launch such a faulty product. If it was 3 years ago maybe, but it's not really optional now.
Most of my connections are over ipv6. If this doesn't support ipv6 then it can only connect to legacy sites. Yes that's pretty much all sites today but this is inexcusable in a new product.
The only people who think that javascript and the javascript "ecosystem" is anything other than an utter disaster seem to be those who've never used anything else.
I have a few hobby projects stored on github and it's easy to get linux VMs so that when I commit something it gets checked out and built and packaged automatically. It's easy to find a VM for a reasonable monthly…
I do feel that the javascript people have made C++ look simple. Not so much the language perhaps, but making programs in it..
Good. The problem of course is that you still need the coal generation capacity for winter, and if you hardly use it other times, it becomes really expensive for the capacity it's providing.
Awesome!
