Right, because Google likely has a tremendous codebase which would prove difficult and costly to port. If they were making a decision today and had no existing python systems, do you think they'd choose the version that's going to be EOL in less than three years?
I'm totally with you. I haven't managed to get tmux copy paste to behave like I'd like it to, so I have a bind to toggle the mouse on or off, then use the alacritty functionality to copy. It's clunky to say the least. I hope alacritty eventually implements something like holding shift and dragging enables mouse selection (like gnome shell).
While I don't like seeing people flame op for making a choice of technology, electron boils down to a trade-off between the developer's convenience and the end user's computing power. I think it's pretty reasonable for the users to not like that prospect.
Now I'm not too experienced, so correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a signal strength reading part of the wireless protocol? If your signal strength takes a consistent dive over a small period of time (as you walk out of the building) you could engage the cellular connection to at least supplement the pope wireless connection.
Or how about if some x% of packets were lost/failed checksum you revert to cellular?
Both of these would likely require changes to the wireless drivers but they don't seem too unachievable.
I was trying to highlight that the need to find the target for insertion or deletion was still a notable operation, not as an afterthought. Sorry it came out that way! That said, you still might need to perform a similar operation to find the target for deletion when using an array. The same is true for allocations (as you pointed out).
I'm don't know how the slab cache allocation would benchmark against allocating larger chunks, I was just trying to give a classical answer to the question.
Insertion and deletion are prime examples, often requiring you to move large chunks of memory. The same operation just requires pointer changes (after finding where you want to insert or delete). I think in this example it would be common to be removing structs from the center of the list.
It's already on the stable Windows 10 build a, and there was also significant improvements in the creators update. You have to enable it via "Windows Features" and reboot before first use.
Why is this? Is it because it is easier to categorize users as opposed to content, or do ads perform better when targeted to specific audiences? If I had to guess I'd think that audience targeted adverts would perform better, but here we have a large amount of companies upset that their adverts are appearing next to specific content.
While I agree that Google is likely more trustworthy, I think it is naive to think Google does not sell your information; that's how they make money, right?
You have to go a fair way to run anything on wsl, much more than "one click". Also, there's not much that you can do in bash that can't already happen in batch/powershell, with perhaps a little more effort.
Port scanning itself is obviously not dangerous, however I believe the author is imagining a situation where a user on the other side of a corporate firewall views a webpage which then portscans from the inside then sends the results home/starts an attack on specific ports.
How about a whitelist of hardware fingerprints, similar to what Microsoft does with Windows installations. Also, Google is known to have custom manufactured hardware, specifically with security in mind. I don't think the idea that Google is able to secure their own network against foreign devices is really that far-fetched.
The app I used to read this article relies on well formed markup like this. There is significant value in using descriptive markup compared to the cost.
My experience too. My chromebook has easily been the best value for money computer I've ever purchased, but it's just not the right device for development outside of the web browser. Maybe sometime soon browser based cad tools will become more widely adopted but there are some serious limitations imposed by web browsers that make that difficult to see happening anytime soon.
Isn't 2fa by sms bad though? You hear a new case almost every week of someone whose telco was socially engineered to gain access to their phone number linked 2fa/account recovery.
This is sad news. While they've had their issues, I've always found dropbox to be one of the more responsible and reliable tech companies. Supplying 2fa for only paid users almost seems like they're taking hostages - "Pay us more or your account will be less secure" doesn't sound like a company whose services I would want to be using. Shame.
A little off topic, I've extensively used the secure shell plugin for chrome and I find it a very good experience compared to putty. The only minor issues I hit were:
- Some keyboard combinations will be intercepted by the browser before going to the plugin (big one was ctrl-w which I used in vim a lot). The fix for this is to run the extension in it's own window; you can do this by right clicking the extension on chrome://apps and selecting "Open as window".
- It doesn't handle mixed width fonts very well and they jumble up the screen a little. This came up for me when using powerline. I couldn't find a fix for this at the time.
I understand that a lack of competition almost always leaves users/consumers worse off, but I really find value in a lot of the integrations Chrome seamlessly provides with other Google products, especially my chromebook.
Is this article asking me to sacrifice these benefits just to oppose the imminent monopoly? If the only difference between chrome and firefox was the market share then it might make more sense for me to switch. The problem is that I don't want to give up the extra benefits of chrome just to be one additional user for firefox.
I disagree. As nice as it would be, subreddits do not exist in isolation from one another and very often, trends and behavior set in one subreddit trickle to others. This was noticeable leading up to the removal of /r/fatpeoplehate et al, and it's noticable right now. The flamewar between the radical left and right flows onto almost all default subreddits, and it does drive overall quality down.
I've looked through the reddit post and this and haven't found much discussion regarding the increase in latency that would come with such a service. Does anyone have a general idea of how much slower a round trip is when you count the transmission to the satellites and back? In some multiplayer games a difference of 100ms provides a massive advantage, making it much harder to play competitively on slower connections.
