I was not aware of that and this does not seem to be common knowledge. Add to that I have never seen an input field allow for that, in the case of IPv4
If done right most users should never need to see an IPv6 address. Actually they shouldn’t need to see an IPv4 address. This is much the same as most developers don’t need to worry about MAC addresses. When there is a need then they’ll put up with it for as long as it is useful.
The IPv6 numerical format is designed to clearly handle supporting a 128 bit address. It also provides some features to allowing for the abbreviation of an address, when there is a series of zeros. Also, base 16 provides for shorter display representations that using base 10 would have and avoids getting confused for IPv4.
Just curious what you would have suggested in its place, with example?
There are bound to be some people to find a way to implement a NAT, for whatever reason.
One thing I am curious about is how mobile hotspots will work? From what I understand you phone is creating a NATed subnet, using the single IP address assigned to you, but how will that work in the IPv6 world without NAT?
Actually chips are one thing that are frequently made outside of China. You’ll see Japan, South Korea and Taiwan as frequent manufacturing locations, outside of the US.
The EU wants to charge a tax for links? Jesus. I'm glad I opted not to move there a few years back. The EU has gone batshit crazy already.
If I lived in the EU right now I would tell my boss to suck it and take the first flight out of there.
This is probably also passed by politicians that have never used a computer or don't understand what the impact of the legislation is? Every time I think there is a chance for the EU we get news of some old school thinking screwing with the road forward.
As a user of Safari, I like the privacy features that Apple has put it. As a web developer, will they start fixing the compatibility issues in CSS and HTML (issues not present in Chrome or Firefox), otherwise I may confuse it for IE?
If I had the mod points I’d vote you up. Fed up of the new format where it is all about exclusive licensing. Almost makes want to to back to Blu-rays or less official sources.
I am not a big fan of taxes, but we need to cover infrastructure and public service costs somehow.
I can see where they are coming from. With the shift of business moving from something physical to purely digital, they can’t rely on their old revenue sources. At the same time, citizens want services and business appreciate grants for new investments. If the coffers are empty, then we end up at a disadvantage. Many of the large tech corporations could afford to be taxed at 5% and still be holding on to a large profit. Maybe the simplest is just targeted sales tax increases?
I really don’t know what the right balance is, so I’d be curious what suggestions there are to prevent companies not paying their dues, while also ensuring their countries don’t go bankrupt.
The main thing is if the seller has provided you the ability to download and keep a perpetual copy, then they have definition provided you a copy. At that point any online redownload following a local deletion should be seen as a bonus.
If on the other hand your purchase is not downloadable, then you should be challenging the notion of buying.
Nah, everyone else is fashionably early. If you are running the event then it starts when you get there.
The fact different cultures disagree on this is somewhat of a challenge and I always wonder how mixed background couples manage this? Just imagining this must be frustrating, for example, when one person in a couple is German and the other Brazilian.
Being the first to innovate can be great, being the first to get it right is often better (of course 'better' is a matter of opinion). Examples:
- Yahoo and Altavista were before Google with search engines, but Google got the better implementation and the rest are history
- Creative was before Apple with an MP3 player, but the iPod got the better formula
- Palm and Microsoft were before Apple with smart phones, but Apple changed the market when it brought out the first iPhone
- Microsoft was before Apple with the tablet, but the iPad also changed the market and made them appealing
Being first mover is great if you can keep enough of a lead, but sometimes second mover has the advantage of learning the lessons of the first mover without having to invest the same initial amount to get market validation.
As a a buyer of technology, seeing your favourite company bring out something new is cool, but seeing them making it feel natural and not a fight is even better.
why would the majority care if the terms master/slave were replaced with parent/worker or other suitable terminology?
In what possible way is this ruinous?
Because someone else would find a reason to find it offensive.
At the same time perfectly acceptable words that were considered okay in society evolve their meaning or their meaning is different according to region. The key point wth selection of terms is to provide meaning without excessive explanation.
Maybe the EFF needs to create a blocked to the EU campaign? This campaign would be hosted by any website for a day or more and illustrate that it may be safer for many sites to simply geoblock the EU, than to try complying. If the message isn’t made in a way people notice, then few people will be making the noise they should.
If you don't have it locally then it is volatile. If a cloud provider goes under you can say goodbye to anything they stored. Remember Microsoft once had an audio store and then gave up on it, though it was a step worse because the DRM was tied to them having that service available.
Bought audio is generally DRM free these days, but in certain cases may put a marker in the file to indicate it was sold to you. Bought video on the other hand is still generally impacted by DRM.
The general lesson here, is anything in the cloud should be treated as volatile, unless you have a clear SLA saying otherwise.
As much as I dislike the guy, he got elected, has a strong following and is successfully screwing people over. He may be considered an idiot, but he is doing okay in spite of it.
If he gets in for a second term, then he isn’t the idiot we should be worrying about. Well we should be, but he’ll just be the symptom.
It is probably along the lines of a badly tested bug fix, where any bug fix can introduce unknown side effects, especially if it is a large one?
Since everything about fixing issues is down to a risk analysis, it could be argued that in the current state we know the risks, while the new security architecture introduces unknowns. Those unknowns could be worse than the previous state.
This approach is also a way of pushing back the onus of proving it secure to the Gnome developers.

Nah.
I would just make the Aussie version of WhatsApp with a fixed key of " 1 2 3 4 5 ". :D
Please leave my luggage out of this.

And here is a wookie. The defence rests your honour.
Whatâ(TM)s the chance that as soon as this is inacted some corporations will simply geo block Australia?
Unlocking the vault could be a slippery slope to anyone wanting to get in.

I guess they'll have to go back to making normal games.
That would be nice. At the very least these games should be labelled, so I can choose to avoid them, just like those freemium games.

Not sure magically making things available when you start modifying things is great UX. I believe that consistency between states is important.
The other issue chrome introduced: copying the URL text you see is not what ends up in the clipboard.
Very poorly. The man's an idiot.

I'll admit my arguments were based on observation and personal experience, but at the same time you didn't offer any counter evidence.
