Off topic from OP but do you guys have a work-around for this issue in Safari that's still present to this day? https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137730 (test: https://people-mozilla.org/~dholbert/tests/flexbox/compat_te...) It's been fixed in all other browsers and it's really killing the ability to go full blown flexbox
Re:MacOS: How to investigate high kernel task memory usage? on Monday November 21, 2016 @02:40PM (#13008452)
I've had this issue many times over the years on and off with a late 2011 mbp and a late 2009 mbp. After trying all of the suggestions on the thousands of threads out there about this (google: "osx kernal_task") there was one comment I finally found after all these years (https://discussions.apple.com/message/27901055#message279010...) that has so far been my fix for the past year or so on both. I used to always keep them plugged in to an outlet but now I only use them un-plugged until ~30% then charge back to 100% and un-plug again. I haven't seen the issue since so I figured I'd put this here since it's not a common solution posted to the "osx kernal_task" term.

Relevant bit from the comment "Eventually I realized that the issue seemed to be related to heat. The kernel task spins up CPU cycles to stop heat generating processes from maxing out the CPU and overheating the macbook. About the same time I also realized that the problems seemed to start happening about the time my battery reached 1000 cycles. I have still not replaced the battery so I am not sure it will fix the issue completely. I do know that when the power is not plugged in the kernel_task seems to stay relatively low on the CPU usage list. My battery only lasts about 30 minutes now on low usage so I keep it plugged in all the time. When the kernel_task process pegs my CPU I unplug the power and the process drops back down to normal."

With conflicts of interest like this http://qz.com/520652/groundwork-eric-schmidt-startup-working... it's easy to believe Google would do that.

Ask HN: Payment processing gateway validation policy help

We work with a 501c3 that has a donation form that's been getting hit with crazy amounts of phishing. The charges weren't being declined, but every 3-5 minutes they were submitting a new $1 donation with a new card number and "Address" as the address. The bank is telling the client they only validate the information that's on the card - the name, card number, and cvv2. So my question to anyone...

I think you can change the behavior of your second issue. In System Preferences -> Mission Control if 'Displays have separate Spaces' is checked then only the one monitor should go fullscreen leaving the other to use normally.. I have it unchecked for a specific reason, but I remember before unchecking it that fullscreen was per monitor, and now it treats all monitors as one basically. I'm too lazy to log out and back in to make sure I'm right though :), give it a shot

One more sorting question, how do sort within the category like at http://emoji.codes/ where all the smiley faces are together / people are together / etc. It has a very neat order. I've tried sorting by the unicode value but that wasn't it.

ah! thanks!! love this
Re:Emoji One on Thursday September 11, 2014 @01:56PM (#8304040)
How are you guys categorizing them?

http://emoji.codes/family?c=emoticons http://emoji.codes/family?c=nature etc.

I don't see that the SDKs provide ways of pulling the emojis out in a categorized list to choose from, it seems to all be about the conversion. If want a list of just emoticons, how would I do that with your SDK?

No, I'm on chrome 35 on mavericks and see it. I've seen it for a long time now actually. You don't have this?

Why would they check if Adblock is installed or not?

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/c...

  bool ChromeContentRendererClient::IsAdblockInstalled() {
    return g_current_client->extension_dispatcher_->extensions()->Contains(
        "gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom");
  }

  bool ChromeContentRendererClient::IsAdblockPlusInstalled() {
    return g_current_client->extension_dispatcher_->extensions()->Contains(
        "cfhdojbkjhnklbpkdaibdccddilifddb");
  }
