Yes, they have over-charge protection. But apple laptops still go all the way to 100% whenever you plug in.
It is not a good idea to charge a lithium battery to 100% all the time. The source article also specifically mentions it, giving reference to Battery University.
For old macbook users (with magsafe connectors), covering the middle pin in connector stops charging the battery while running the laptop on main power supply.
People blame crop burning as the reason. Probably the farmers are polluting this place for 15 days, but the same farmers are absorbing our emissions with their farm plants for the remaining 350 days in the year. Nobody seems to mention it ever. The farmers also give us food to eat.
The farmers only need about 2000 dollars for a machine called "happy seeder" to stop burning. It is not a lot of money but the political class will only "subsidize" it, as long as the illiterate farmer fills out a big application form, takes a crowded train to the far-away capital city and submits to the right official along with some bribe.
Given those conditions, I really cannot blame the farmer, I only feel sorry for them.
By the way, I live in Delhi. I am suffering because of this pollution but I will not blame the farmers like media and other people of Delhi. Farmers are nice and simple people, they give us food to eat. Their farms absorb the emissions from my petrol car till I can afford to go electric.
Quoted from article: "The question is, however, how long this will last..."
I hope people do not link this to promotion of piracy straightaway. I hope there are also enough legal torrent websites that come up, so that the government does not see torrents as illegal and start acting against it.
It is only the content that makes a torrent legal or illegal. The concept of torrent is fantastic.
I used to be a fan of JSONView or one of those chrome plugins / extensions. Then I realized that I can simply use the network tab to view the JSON data as it gets loaded.
Here is how it works - keep the network tab ready. When you see the JSON data request, click on the request and hit the "Preview" tab. It gives you data in a collapse / expand format.
Advantages: 1. There is one less plugin that scans all your browsing activity, 2. Slightly extra battery life when just browsing and not developing stuff.
Disadvantage: You need to keep the network tab ready, otherwise you will have to reload the entire page with the network tab open.
EDIT:
My apologies if it wasn't clear. I was talking about the "Developer Tools" option in Chrome, in which there is a "Network" tab. It is available in "Chrome Menu" > "More Tools" > "Developer Tools". Alternatively you can hit Command + Option + I in mac, or some equivalent in Linux / Windows to get there.
I really don't think it is a good point of discussion in this context. The scientists who are working on these rocket launch missions are not in charge of administration of the towns and villages where the toilets need to be built.
I think the horizontal scrolling is happening only in that github.io web page, and probably not a fault with the CSS framework itself. The framework looks nice and small, and a good alternative to the mainstream alternatives.
My apologies, I didn't see your message on time. I used the default Chrome browser on my OnePlus One running CyanogenOS 13 (Android 6.0). I should have posted this in my first comment itself.
Interestingly, I did not see any horizontal scrolling when I tried in Chrome browser (Mac OSX 10.11.4) in regular user mode. But on toggling device mode (in dev tools), and selecting one of the mobiles - Galaxy S5 or Nexus 6P, the horizontal scrolling started to appear, and it is a lot worse than on my actual android phone.
I haven't yet been able to identify the element that overflows, but the <html> and <body> seems to take default 100% width and are expected to be contained within the browser frame. There is some other rogue element, somewhere nested inside, which is causing this unwanted horizontal scrolling.
I tested on mobile as you suggested, and noticed an unwanted horizontal scrolling of about 20 pixels. I assume this is probably a bug to be fixed later.
Agreed. It is not a fair comparison, BizSpark probably provides a lot more.
But for a startup with only developers and zero capital, App Engine still provides a great platform to get started. And also, there is no need to apply and get accepted, everyone gets the free quota.
Let me change my initial comment - for those who didn't get into BizSpark and who have run out of their free AWS quota can consider Google App Engine for their experiments :-)
How about Google App Engine for startups? They give a free tier, which I presume is free for life as long as the web application stays within quota.
Ofcourse there is lock-in, there is no free lunch anywhere! But it should be ok for startups with no capital, who just want to figure out their business model. Once the idea is validated, they can always learn from the experience, and rewrite the application if platform absolutely needs to be changed.
Disclaimer: I don't get paid by Google for writing this, though I am trying to do something with google app engine (python) and that may lead to some bias on my side :-)
I was reading the comments under original article, and came across this book - "Venture Deals".
With a bootstrapping mindset, I probably may not need it. But posting the info here for anyone who might be interested in VCs... Search for it in amazon or your favorite bookstore.
