Re:Google Pay on Monday January 08, 2018 @02:45PM (#16099622)
I use android pay whenever possible. I use it multiple times per month. I also use it when available in apps.
Spotify has playlists for the same things you listed (minus maybe christmas, but I'm sure they do). I've seen the others though listed.
Re:Switching From React To Vue.js on Sunday May 28, 2017 @07:15AM (#14433924)
There's a default shouldComponentUpdate implementation in the React.Component. It does a shallow compare of state and props. When you define shouldComponentUpdate you are just overriding that implementation. So it's always called, its just you don't need to always define it.

Thank you for introducing this to me, that is amazing.
Re:What’s New in Docker 1.13? on Friday January 20, 2017 @02:56AM (#13442319)
It does, it's a lighter VM than VirtualBox which is what docker machine used, but still a VM nonetheless.

Re:The .zip file specification is flawed on Wednesday December 14, 2016 @05:10PM (#13180122)
I did not know that. I'm on Linux and the client is on windows so only had experience with it on those 2 OS's. Good to know.

I wasn't disagreeing with anything was just saying how I handle it with generated csv's. I do not disagree in the slightest that Byte order marks are wrong and not part of clean utf 8-bit handling. BUT, when you have a client and you need to generate a csv for them with characters that are only valid in utf-8 and that client's program will only open the file correctly if you add the Byte order mark, then you add the byte order mark.
Re:The .zip file specification is flawed on Tuesday December 13, 2016 @05:14PM (#13171637)
I don't know how you do it in excel but if you generate a csv with UT8 data you can add a byte order mark[0] as the first byte and it will render correctly.

Once you add that, excel will open the file with utf8 encoding (if you use the utf8 byte order mark obviously). I haven't tried with other utf-* encodings.

Again don't know how to tell excel how to add that though :/ I've only had to deal with arabic in generated csv's.

Re:Donald Trump is the president-elect of the U.S. on Wednesday November 09, 2016 @03:29AM (#12907812)
He is but republicans are projected to win the House, the Senate, and most state governments. If they can work together that rudder just got bigger.
Re:Angular 2 Final Released on Thursday September 15, 2016 @05:53AM (#12504649)
It actually refreshes the whole page it isn't hot reloading. It's more like live reloading (who page instead of pieces of the page).
Re:Pebble 4.0 Apps and Firmware Released on Wednesday August 31, 2016 @09:28AM (#12398108)
I had the same issue and rebooting my watch (not hard reset, just reboot [press and hold the back and select (middle button)] for 10 seconds until the pebble logo shows) fixed the problem. Just in case anyone else has this.
