Same, I expected it to be someones resume built in the unreal engine.

Only on Apple-built iRoads as long as you are connected to iCloud.

You can get it for your PC too https://www.google.co.jp/ime/furikku/. Very good for coding.

I assume they're referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Copy_Protection

Can I get that transmitter as wearable tech to prevent people from taking pictures of me?

Nice list, is there one available for the other languages supported by Google Now?

Probably bloomberg? They have this hilarious ad-blocker blocker popup:

  We noticed that you're using an ad blocker, 
  which may adversely affect the performance

No bloomberg, the ad-blocker positively affects the performance and content on your site. For the best experience, make sure your adblocker blacklist is up to date.

Already exists, it's called reddit.

From what I understand, this wasn't a "military base" but rather a shelter owned by the SDF. No need for a fence really.

A better metric is probably "deaths / km" instead of % of workforce.

Also, while those nine deaths are tragic, we've come a long way from the roughly 200 lives the old 15km tunnel took.

The venn diagram of people caring about web best practices and people running adblockers is a circle, so there's no reason for ad networks to change anything.

We have such a standard http://www.opensearch.org/Home. This works at least in chrome, so if I want to search github, in the address bar I enter "g<tab>search term<enter>".

At under 5MB, it's quite lightweight compared to other modern tools too, nice!

Oh we're past chips, and have NFC enabled credit cards. Which is even worse, see http://privacy-pc.com/articles/hacking-in-the-far-east-7-too...

Great update. Thanks

Great website. Doesn't work without javascript and can't open the details view of a module in a new tab.

Well TIL. Thanks. Also amazing suggestion.

But that should've been called DroneyMcDroneface. It's not a boat!

aiohttp has completely replaced flask for my "small web apps/web apis" needs. For my personal performance needs, just running `python myapp.py` is enough, no need for gunicorn or other "complicated" setups.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito_laser it would cost $50. They deliberately built it using already available parts (the laser is the same as used for bluray for example) to keep cost down. The problem seems to be (as parent pointed out) reliable electricity.

I know the chances of MSFT distributing these as torrents is basically zero due to their legal department, but it feels like this would be an ideal candidate (from a technical standpoint) for a torrent. Would also mean that if I download it, if our clients are set up correctly, my coworkers can download it faster by loading it from me than the internet.

Odd, I could've sworn I used curl when I had this issue a while back. Maybe they changed something or I did something terribly wrong. Thanks for testing though.

My issue is that it's a single file. If you have a network hiccup during that 5G download, have fun re-downloading it. I wish they offered torrents...

In heavy snow, busses (and especially trams) tend to not run on schedule anymore in Zurich. During reasonable conditions, they normally do. One thing they have is buffer time at the end of the lines, so that if it's late on one run, it won't be late for all runs. Some longer lines don't run quite on schedule, especially during rush hour, but their high frequency usually makes that a non-issue.

They apparently mirror everything to LibGen. I agree it would be nice to be able to easily mirror it though.

Agreed. I've got 4G at the moment and it's plenty fast, since I can only use it for moderate surfing/etc since I'd otherwise hit my monthly cap in a week. If I had super fast 5G, I could accidentally burn through my cap in a day.

The first thing will be people pointing out how this was obviously not taken by the robot, as nothing connects the camera to the robot. Because reading the text below the image is too difficult for some. (I almost wonder if it wouldn't have been smarter for NASA to leave the arm in instead of mosaic it out)

Don't worry, the free market will solve it. Keep cutting taxes and remove regulations.
