homulilly

I don't know about major corporations but smaller businesses or government institutions (such as my old highschool) use stuff like this.

Screen tearing is, iirc from the gpu buffer only partially overwritten with the next frame when it's sent to the screen.

Using this looks like a great way to end up stuffed into a suitcase in the bottom of a lake. Part of the appeal of Uber or Lyft is that they ostensibly conduct background checks of some sort to weed out the psychopaths.

I keep trying to go back to Firefox but it's so slow and janky compared to chrome (even with electrolysis enabled) I switch back within a day. Will probably see if there are any good chromium builds out there though.

They all already have bug reports that have either been open for multiple years or were closed without actually fixing the issue which is why I suspect this may be a problem with internal politics or misguided design philosophy.

Firefox still suffers from a lot of minor quality of life issues compared to other browsers, I don't know if it's neglect or weird internal politics but they add up to making firefox less attractive than the competition.

A few off the top of my head:

* Firefox doesn't respect Windows 10's titlebar accent colors

* No option to set a default zoom level for web pages

* Firefox for android ignores intent filters

The first two have addon or userstyle workarounds which makes it even more baffling that they have remain unsolved issues for years.

Yeah that's correct. Awesome!

Still doesn't work in a number of situations like if you have a touch screen.

the poor state of e10s feels like neglect to me

If you're just doing a google search then yeah it's reasonable. It's less so when you're a professional who's supposed to be an expert on these things. If you can't spend more than 5 seconds double checking the accuracy of your research why should I trust it?

providers have the advantage of offering multiple geographic locations without having to spin up a new instance every time you switch which may be useful to some people though.

looked at the report to see if they'd reviewed torguard and apparently they... don't realize it's a VPN service and think it's related to the onion router. Kinda undermines they're credibility a bit if they can't even identify the tools they're auditing properly.

Backlights very well might; They weren't tested in this study.

Oh boy, another Ayn Rand loving psychopath in the whitehouse.

It's just ConEmu packaged with some additional utilities like clink and a custom launcher. Actually quite nice since you can update to the latest version of ConEmu with no issues.

correction: "-itis" means inflammation, not some random thing.

If corporate america and the government had been less greedy and not insisted in rolling in corporate sovereignty and absurdly broken copyright and patent laws into free trade deals and considered providing some sort of relief to people negatively affected in the short term we wouldn't be having this backlash.

I agree that free trade is generally a good thing but the TPP had too many serious problems to make up for that.

People are saying this is about race and while I do think that's a big part of it, making it the whole story is dangerously counterproductive.

The Clinton camp basically offered nothing to working class people. Working class people of color turned out to vote for her because at least she wasn't spouting racist rhetoric but for working class whites who aren't concerned with race issues, if they're going to be equally neglected under either candidate, they may as well vote for the one who will be a brick through the window of the political establishment that has failed them. These are the voters who cost Clinton the election.

You can't change your master password unless you go and change every single password you use.

You won't be able to use it on sites with abnormal password requirements (usually bad practices on the part of the site admins but that doesn't mean you can just ignore it).

Plants generally aren't grouped with green algae despite them having evolved from a common ancestor. I guess it's a bit like the crustacean/insect division, so maybe I was being a bit too facetious.

Some are, some aren't. Upon further research it does appear the type used in this algal flour are related to plants but many algae species aren't closely related to plants at all.

Perhaps it's been changed since you posted this link but I see nothing about microalgae being plants.

someone should inform the author of this article that algae aren't plants

My experience with atom-ternjs has been that you create the config file in your project root with any plugins/options you need and then you're good to go. You get autocomplete for any node modules you require and everything just sort of works.

VS Code's intellisense (which uses typescript for both js and ts files) however requires definition files for any dependencies to be installed separately (which may or may not exist/be up to date), requires you to explicitly exclude stuff like your node_modules folder otherwise it will simply stop working with no error message. This gets worse if you have multiple nested node/npm projects as is common with, for example, electron projects where you have to make sure you explicitly exclude the paths to any node_modules directories under the jsconfig.json root and you'll need separate jsconfig.json files for every project (which might be what you want, but isn't strictly required with tern like it is here). Another issue is that since vscode is clearly geared towards typescript, a variable's type is determined when it's declared and only then so something like "let app;" sets the app variable's type to "any" which it stays for the entire file no matter what object is assigned to it later.

There are some things I like, such as the ability to define JSON schemas and a number of the issues above don't apply when using typescript but when writing regular old javascript it's pretty lacking.

We used a system called Facet5 at work once. I'm still not convinced these types of things are actually worth the money in terms of productivity gains but it did seem to do a decent job addressing the biggest flaws with the MBTI (Rates things on a scale and uses a 5th scale that determines the expression of the other 4).

Again, not sure if it actually made any difference in interactions with coworkers but it was kinda interesting.

I like Atom but I ditched it in favor of Visual Studio Code because it has per-project settings, something Atom still lacks. The only thing I really miss is the ternjs extension. Typescript's intellisense is nice but requires quite a bit of setup to actually work.

how about guys just sit down to pee? it's really not that hard.

Congrats to Beam but I will admit it's kinda sad since the chances of the PS4 ever getting an option to stream to Beam are now pretty much 0.

Law enforcement is the biggest and most dangerous gang in America.
