You're not wrong. Notice how I mentioned my favourite model "sucks less" than the other one. What ever company sells an e-ink smartphone with a fantastic camera and up-to-date Android will get my money for ever.
Thanks for sharing! I too have looked at the Palma, but without it also being a phone, I can't go for it, because I'd have to carry it and a LCD-screen phone. Colour e-ink works by having a colour filter over the…
I want to recommend getting an e-ink smartphone. I've tried the Hisense A5 and the Bigme Hibreak, and software-wise, found the Bigme Hibreak to suck a little less, as I could not access the Google Play store on the…
Turned location off for Uber for this reason. Makes the app less useable - but still worth it. Without that feature, I'd rather just wave a taxi in (depending on city). Makes me feel like Uber is hostile towards users…
How about I rob your store Thursday and you mine Friday?
Is there a DRM-free way to watch this?
That is indeed totally crazy. I wish I had some way to verify your story, as I as a reader can't know who sits behind the keyboard on the other side.
Online Adverts are a form of micropayment. It's currently the only way to charge sub-cent amounts from users. It requires the third party of an advertiser, which is a very expensive middle man. If we can figure out how…
This is what I have done as well. I think it was Bruce Schneier who brought up the idea of digital feudalism. I want to own my data, and that is incompatible with the business of Netflix and Spotify. Very sad about it,…
So owning and sharing child porn should be OK in the eyes of the law? It's simply not an easy question to give an easy answer to.
Infix is only easy to read if you're only used to it. Not inherently better - I'd say opposite even. Also, I don't want to live without Paredit (or Smartparens)
One thing me and my teammate did in our last Clojure gig was to not shorten namespaces (with the `:as` keyword). Instead of in this example write `[cognician.chat.dom :as dom]` just write `cognician.chat.dom`. Then when…
For this reason I went out to buy a Intel NUC and am now running NixOS on there. Developing on that machine, with a Clojure nRepl connected via SSH. Works great, especially since my service can now be running and…
I have been working on a Clojure (so JVM) program that I run in Docker for Mac. It requires some data on disk, which is about 100GB. Since my laptop has a pathetic 250GB SSD I got an external drive for this. All well.…
>Tipping culture also introduces uncertainty into pricing, and means that nicer people pay more and jerks get to pay less, for the same service. Why is someone a jerk for not tipping? I pay for service provided - give…
Why do operating systems allow users to run any executable? For programmers it's important to be able to - but when you're not coding, running any executable is not required. It should be that all programs are in…
Does this work the same way as Monero?
Having not heard of Angie's List before I decided to check their website out. If anyone working on that is reading HN, you might find it interesting that I didn't understand at all what the website was for until reading…
That the repl is in your editor, and you can hit ctrl-c ctrl-e to evaluate anything on the fly.
I've used TypeScript, Flow and Elm for making front-end apps. My favourite of the three is by far Elm, even if that was a bit harder to get into (as it's a new language and I didn't know before how to do side-effect…
Being vegetarian is easy and healthy. I recommend it. If nothing else, buy a nice cookbook and make it a habit to cook nice non-meat food one night a week. Make it a date with your partner!
One me as a European and Holland-lover is worried about is Amsterdam. A ton of Clojure stuff going on there (my special interest) but at 0.5 degree celsius warmer than now, that town is likely to be submerged.
It's 45% nuclear and 45% hydro [0] according to Dagens Nyheter, an old and reliable news paper. [0] - http://www.dn.se/ekonomi/vattenkraft-och-karnkraft-ger-sveri...
Missed that! Thanks for correcting me.
First of all, there is no need to be mean, even if I understand you mean well. Isn't it true though, that with some techniques certain bugs are impossible to make? If you have not experienced it, I recommend you to seek…
