My wife and I are both programmers, and as a bonus we also work at the same company :) We may have an easier situation as our specialties are different (I'm a mobile developer and she works server side) but we have never really had any issues at all. As long as both sides keep open minds to information and drop any defensive attitudes, it works out great. Basically, when talking about programming and work, we treat each other as a resource and colleagues rather than a romantically involved couple. It has also made us better programmers as we have any extra point of view when tackling our problems.
Came back to my win7 machine to a dialog saying that Windows 10 will automatically update for me in 3.5 hours. There was no actual cancel button, only try again later.
To be honest, when I first saw the win10 update dialog I thought it was malware. The tray icon and the dialogs are stored after windows 8 so they don't look right.
Side note to your post, the w800 in your picture was my all time favorite phone. I'm a full time Android developer now and I consider the Java programs I first worked on with the w800 to be the reason behind my interests :)
I believe you're required to have a real, verified account in order to create and modify test users, and I think there are certain features that are blocked for test users.
The UI scaling looks a little off on windows. I have a 28" 4K and it takes a little bit to get used to. Make sure you have a desk where you can sit far enough back (I'd say around 3 feet), otherwise eyes start hurting. Only certain IDEs have decent scaling too (Android studio needs some font size tweaks). Visual Studio does a pretty good job.
It's amazing for gaming in the off-hours though. I'd say go for it if you do a lot of front-end work, otherwise wait until there's better support.
The Android ViewHolder pattern has been a standard pretty much since SDK 1. For the last few years, I've been using a different approach that results in a cleaner adapter, increased maintainability and better code reuse with larger projects. This is my first HN/blog post so I appreciate any and all feedback.
Hate to be the skeptic, but what's to guarantee that the winner will distribute the winnings evenly? It's not like the site has any official connection to the contest.
Why does this matter? You'll need to get the code somehow, and once its on your machine, it doesn't make any requests. You can take a look at the code to find out if its malicious or not.
As a DoD CAC user and developer, this is correct (although the card readers at my company are built into the laptop or inserted via a USB adapter). I don't think there is a background agent that maintains the key though, I just think the card reader is queried when the certificate is needed. After the cert has been verified, you're free to pull the card out.
I thought the same thing. How much code would it take to set up this mining operation? It seems unlikely that the amount of code added is trivial enough to go undetected.
I honestly don't see why they can't do it both ways. For people who buy game discs, let them share and play offline, but for those who choose to buy the DRM-enabled digital download version of the game, let them install it to the hard drive and play without a disc across consoles. It's all down to user preference anyway, why does it have to be one way or the other?
