I'd really like to see a bunch of images / live 3d models generated with it before investing time to even try it.

Easy way to do ad networks host blocking. The real problem is canvas fingerprinting, but that's an inherent issue of the whole graphics stack so everything depends on your freak-out factor.

This is horrible from a UX perspective. There are many fingerprinting techniques besides this. I don't see how adding a user hostile behaviour will help.

Damn, I thought I could afford a decent sports car for me in 10 years :)

I started playing around with NN-s recently and this looked like a good tutorial until the partial derivatives :) It would have been so much better to turn a complex math concept like that to code in smaller chunks because it's hard to extract from the full sample which part refers to which equation.

Also, the bias is not explained at all.

- Why is it there?

- What does it do?

- What value should it have?

I recommend revisiting the great philosopher, Haddaway's poem with a simliar title:

Also, follow this guy's advice on being sad:

PaaS (Platform as a Service) would qualify I think.

It's not old hardware :)

To make things 100x complicated in our "modern" world :)

For example you can select a gender pronoun in English to match your gender. https://uwm.edu/lgbtrc/support/gender-pronouns/

In Hungarian we just say "Ő" to refer to someone, privacy is baked into the language :)

Something is wrong, I get 12FPS MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015)

> Realistically, would we have cared if IE was everywhere if it wasn't garbage in supporting web standards?

No, I would have been perfectly happy if IE was a developer friendly, standards compliant browser, but they created a huge opportunity by ignoring this. I remember when I was super excited for a little floating JavaScript debug tool that you had to include in HTML and you could inspect variables without alerting them. I was amazed by it :)

> I wish Google would go back to funding Mozilla like they used to.

I think that's still the case:

I don't particularly like the manifesto style of this post. The author attempts a hard sell by first admitting that the world needed Chrome and then after it succeeded he suggests throwing it to the depths after the wish came true.

> Chrome is effectively everywhere you look. And that’s bad news.

Why? It's the dream you wanted 10 years ago, but it comes with Google now. Ooops for you if you dislike Google, but the vast majority of people doesn't care. Use Safari, Firefox or anything, but calling out ditching Chrome is for the greater good is ridiculous.

H mentions 60% as a dominant position which is not how I would describe it in my dictionary.

How?

It was open source from start. Yes, Firefox as well, but it had Google as a brand behind it which put lots of trust in it because of the engineering talent they have.

Yes, of course. But JS is frontend mostly, so I can imagine it's easier to accidentally scrape some JS with text.

PHP, not so much, only if the server returns source by accident.

With sloppy scraping I guess JS was picked up besides text.

PHP should be intentionally used as training material.

What if I track you server side?

I think because it's very easy to see it as something familiar. People are always skeptical about new stuff plus that familiar thing was shit so this must be shit too.

So no critical thinking leads to lame jokes and "OMG NO JAVA" style comments.

> I have yet to find a case where the automatic synchronization has been off by more than ~1 second.

1 second is in the 0 - 1000ms which is still a lot of room for manual tweaking in VLC. I can notice 50ms differences in sync.

This is great as is and it would require minimal work to make it a profile setting.

Thanks, installed :)

Do you use server side visitor tracking on your projects? This will probably if not already shift analytics more to the backend.

I clicked the logo 3 times. It's not a video :)

Mark Rober (glitter bomb) did a video on this. He also did a test on the "pool smell" if it really caused by pee reacting with chlorine:

Or that she hired ghost writers is just a desperate attempt to shift responsibility. She probably won't publish much under her real name, but I guess she will continue under aliases.

There's a little known feature in Chrome where you can save your inspector changes locally:

Hmm, any idea why the list of countries are so limited?

It certainly worked to stop me grabbing top domains.

> No social media account or agent or client is going to be your savior.

No, it's a tool, a channel to reach your audience.

> If I create something beautiful — something I am immensely proud of — do I need to share it on social media? Do I need others to affirm it?

This is strange, social media share are for traffic and engagement to drive ad revenue. If done for affirmation, then it's probably not the best thing to do.

If you turn your apple retina display to 1080p mode, then I would think it's not that good when there's a 1:1 correspondence between physical pixels and pixel data. However when the size stays the same, I wouldn't expect much difference.

A 32 inch 4k display downsampled to 1080p, well... :)

With copy and paste? :)

Toggling styles is a good question. I have sometimes multiple classes that have to work together. For example to open a panel, I use some translate/transform, different positioning. How do you compose different styles for a single component?

How do you deal with mobile, where sometimes I have to override dozens of declarations with media queries?
