Memory saver is disabled and energy saver only enabled if battery below or at 20%. Safari does work fine.

Ask HN: Do you experience scroll issues in Google Chrome?

I am experiencing a weird scroll issue in Google Chrome where scroll downs are not properly registered after reaching the top of a scroll container and was wondering if this affects more users. I am able to reproduce this issue on multiple sites and even Spotify app on macOS which uses the chromium engine under the hood.e.g. https://www.mintscan.io/dydx/proposals1. place the cursor in the...

> Time Machine works fine until it doesn’t

I have been backing up to Time Machine for years without issues. Recently I started using pnpm (Nodejs package manager) and the backup process hangs on Mui material icons files (@mui/icons-material). Using "sudo fs_usage -f filesys backupd" I see that it is looping over the same files over and over.

Because then it would be clear who did it. A sabotage in the baltic sea makes it more difficult to find the culprit and probably causes [intentional] blame of countries that might benefit from shut pipelines.
Using the Mail app (macOS) with a Gmail Account and pressing the refresh button, makes the app hang in "Checking for Mail..." for 20-30+ seconds. It is faster quitting and opening the Mail app to check for new mails.

There is a memory leak down the network stack (probably within security library/ TLS layer) that has been reported over 6 months ago but has yet to be fixed. Depending on the app's network usage this is leading to several GBs of leaked memory per day.

Thanks, I have already filled a feedback for it and hope that someone will take some serious look into it.

Possibly memory leak in macOS network request stack

I have written an application for macOS that is dealing with 50-100 network requests per second and the memory is constantly growing (reaching 1gb per day). The first version was in Swift, so I believed it was a Swift related issue and reported it here https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-14194. Then I decided to rewrite my application in Rust and surprisingly had the same memory issue. Same code...

Re:Germans Grow Frustrated with Their Slow-Poke Internet on Tuesday August 06, 2019 @05:58AM (#20623773)
I grow up in Germany and can completely agree with you. The landline network is crappy in many areas and the mobile network is one of the worst I have seen (traveled to many countries). My parents recently got a 16MBit connection installed. Currently I am living in Thailand and their mobile network coverage is amazing. Even on an island or in the jungle you get LTE.
Re:Ask HN: Germans, how to work legally remote? on Sunday August 04, 2019 @10:26AM (#20606709)
Just use a Gewerbe and make sure you issue a few invoices to other clients. I have done that for years and never had any problems.

Thanks. Really good job
good point :)
What you mean is setInterval and does work well for synchronous execution. His approach is correct and would even work if the animate function is asynchronous as the next tick gets scheduled at the end of animate function execution.
they are. Let's say you choose an opportunity of 3-4% margin. Deduct your exchange fees for buying & selling which should be around 0.4-1.0% (depends on your volume etc). Then deduct another fee of 0.5-0.7% for using an online money transfer service. 1-3% profit every few days without doing anything much. Have done it by myself over the last 2 years.
thanks. should be fixed in the next minutes/hours
thanks for pointing that out. The DNS settings have been wrong for the subdomain

Yes

Robot reaches rank 4 in hearthstone

Last season in Hearthstone, Blizzard's digital card drug, I hit rank 14 or 15—an impressive feat, I thought, considering I hadn't bought any card packs since I started playing back in April.<p>Source: http://kotaku.com/this-robot-is-probably-better-than-you-at-hearthstone-1609547028<p>Bot: www.hearthcrawler.com
