Go to a 'key signing party' and rub elbows with people you actually trust.
People in the same city, yes. But in the face of increasing "safety" and "security" restrictions on international travel, domestic air travel, and even getting a driver's license for the first time, how well does this scale beyond a city?
Responding to a frequency drop doesn't really work, you must remain exactly in phase with the received frequency or it looks like a short-circuit to the distribution system.
Often I (temporarily) have one working hand and one eating hand, or one working hand and one holding the laptop hand. Other people might be doing things with their other hand that make "Sticky Keys" an apt name.
Other than the lack of a widely used multi-site micropayment service that respects viewers' privacy.
Credit card processors charge a merchant on the order of 30 cents per transaction plus 3% of the value, and the 30 cents greatly overwhelm (say) 2 cents to view an article. Nor is a user who wants to view a single article on a particular site going to want to spend $6 on a 300-pack of article views and waste the other 299 because the purchased views aren't portable to another site.
A multi-site micropayment service would work in one of two ways.
Flat fee
Adult Check (because grown-ups can pay for nice things) was a flat $10 per month and paid participating publishers per page view. It was sued out of business when too many participating publishers displayed infringing scans of photos taken from Perfect 10 magazine.
Page views
Google Contributor charges for a pack of page views. It's pretty much ideal except for two things: First, it charges for reloading an article that the user has already seen recently, which could encourage sites to engage in view fraud by failing to invest in a reliable connection so that the viewer will reload the page more often. Second, it's run by the same company that also runs an ad network. This means Contributor views still get counted toward the click-stream for Google's "interest-based advertising" features, even though the page is served without ads.
What are the drawbacks of connecting a keyboard to a tablet and doing programming on that? AIDE runs on an Android tablet. Even the limits of iOS aren't quite as limiting now that Swift Playgrounds exists.
Secundus: Narrow border? Hard to click on? What are you, some kind of spastic?
Not everybody is born knowing that 1. "spastic" is a movement disability, and 2. putting people down for having a movement disability shows prejudice. So an exchange like that might be an opportunity to educate someone:
"Spastic? My aunt has cerebral palsy. Please check your ableism."
For instance, for years now I use Meta+Left Click to grab my windows and move them (KDE).
Assuming that by "Meta" you meant Alt, which is the typical PC keyboard binding for Meta: Your suggestion would block the user from performing an action within an application that is bound to Alt+click or Alt+drag. This might happen in, say, a paint program. Ports from the Mac would be affected, as the Mac has long bound Option+clicking menus to show advanced options. Super+drag could work, as the Super key already has an icon representing windows on it.
But the other thing a title bar is useful for is to raise or focus a window without the click activating any control within the window.
Did anybody else fall for your "client-side" and "[enforce] the rules" in the same sentence bit?
I have no idea what you're getting at. I said the authoritative validation runs on the server. I was referring to ensuring that the behavior of the pre-submission validation, which runs on the client, matches that of the authoritative validation, which runs on the server. Any mismatch causes a poor user experience, as users who want to enter data that is server-valid but not client-valid have to "hack" it in using Inspect Element.
Based on what I have read of previous discussions, though the user may add third-party kernel modules under an incompatible license to a private installation, a distributor is not allowed to distribute the combination. This is why third-party kernel modules available separately cannot be included in an install image distributed to the public, as the distributor of an install image has to distribute the combination.
You said "performance requirement". What widely used, dynamically typed, memory-safe language has a runtime faster than the V8 engine used in Node.js? Go is statically typed. Or does the "top talent" in this area prefer static typing?
Is your project a web application? If so, what automated process would you use to translate server-side authoritative input validation written in Go into JavaScript in order to ensure that the client-side prevalidation enforces the same rules?
In general, each process should operate with the least possible privilege. Windows went through this in 2007 when Windows Vista cut off services' ability to display a GUI. Splitting it into a GUI to parse (possibly untrusted) user input and a worker to do the actual work, with a narrow communication channel between the two, makes it less likely that an inadvertent flaw in the GUI will cause problems in the elevated part.
Anti-adblock detects failure to load ads and removes the article's text from the DOM until the user disables protection. Running a blocker for a specific behavior gives you a bit of plausible deniability and room to complain to the site's support department about misdetecting an ad blocker.
Flashblock: "I don't want to open my PC to attacks through Adobe's proprietary code. I'd look at your ads if they weren't Flash."
Ghostery, Disconnect, Firefox tracking protection: "I don't appreciate third parties stalking me around the web. I'd look at your ads if they were first-party."
NoScript: "I'd look at your ads if they were static, like those on Daring Fireball and Read the Docs."
Look inside most tech companies and the coding is being done on Macs because its Unix under the hood and Windows is a shitty experience
I have a simpler explanation for use of Macs in client software development: Xcode is Mac-exclusive and the only way to build, test, and ship iOS apps. If only Android apps and server apps were needed, more developers might use GNU/Linux.
I think Anonymous Coward #56004133's point is that just setting image.animation_mode to once would not stop animation driven by CSS or JavaScript that arranges the frames of an animation as CSS sprites.
Motion JPEG in JavaScript
Arrange the frames as a filmstrip. Then add a script that uses setInterval or requestAnimationFrame to periodically change the background-position of an element that displays a sprited JPEG as its background.
Motion JPEG in pure CSS
Arrange the frames as a filmstrip, and use a keyframe set and stepped progression to animate the background-position property as described in "CSS Sprite Sheet Animations with steps()" by Guil Hernandez. Try it: Muybridge's galloping horse.
While viewing the featured article in Firefox ESR 52, after I scrolled to a certain point, an autoplaying video of a singer-guitarist popped up in the lower right hand corner of the viewport. Audio played for about half a second. I clicked the X button to make the video go away, but then a few seconds later, the audio resumed playing in a video above the scroll position.
I concede for the moment that a computer that the general public cannot program is nonetheless still a computer. I therefore must agree that the child in the ad is ignorant (whether intentionally or not) for not being aware that an iPad is one.
But a question is raised: How does it benefit the public to make the tools for programming a computer sold to the public cost several times more than the computer itself?

Without those, on what device would people be expected to run Xcode?
If this is an issue at all, a parent is well advised to cancel their cable subscription entirely.
And then use what for Internet? Some cable ISPs offer only the slowest peak speeds and the lowest monthly caps to subscribers who do not bundle TV.
I believe sg_oneill has discovered what he thinks is an XY problem and is trying to solve the underlying root issue.
If you can correct the overall phase a slight amount, then as your correction accumulates, it turns into frequency.

As I understand "Tesla Big Battery Outsmarts Lumbering Coal Units After Loy Yang Trips" from a few weeks ago: If you slightly lead the received frequency in phase, you can take load off the generators, which causes frequency to stabilize.

Nothing prevents you from paywalling your page.

I skipped Swift Playgrounds because I lack an informed opinion on it, because I haven't tried it, because I don't own an iPad.
And being able to install straight onto ZFS is huge; Debian and Ubuntu need to get this into their installers.
I don't see how that can be done legally, as Linux and ZFS have incompatible copyright licenses.

I would bring you up to date on this, but that would be off-topic in this particular Slashdot story.
