They ought to make this thing a 2-seater so a loved one with an oxygen mask can sit next to you and hold your hand.

I like what I'm seeing, though I'm not sure I have a use case. On a VPS, I'll typically run a cloudflared container and configure a Cloudflare tunnel to that VPS. Then, I can expose any port and point it to a subdomain I conf

I think DRY should be supplemented by "Don't make me read it multiple times". Repeat yourself, by all means, if that makes it so that I don't get all twisted up jumping between so many files that I can't keep the ma

I find his stuff sloppy and uninteresting, too, and he has no charisma. This just goes to show that he really does know what he's doing. He identified the statistically meaningful things to focus on and perfect. Imagine if he was just

Partly, I think that the culture is more affected by the lack of history than most people realize. If you've lived in Europe, and I'm sure elsewhere, you understand your mortality implicitly from the centuries-old buildings and st

The post is silly because you wrote software that makes use of argv[0]? On the contrary, it opens a discussion about unintended security implications that might be avoided in the future if command line implementation can be reconsidered.

It's too bad VSCode doesn't "hydrate" features on an as-needed basis or on demand. Imagine it opens by default with just text editing and syntax highlighting, and you can opt in to all the bells and whistles as you have

to be fair, it sounds like the author only referred to the manual after making uninformed decisions.

I also found this concerning.

The questionable reliability of documentation is the big problem, for sure. It would be nice to be able to collect metadata such as referral dates and even comments. If you visit the docs, tick a box that says, "I referred to this and

I agree that the availability has always been a big program. I always wanted a pi zero w but never could find one at list price.

by 4star3star 2y ago
What your critique does not address is the hardware aspect of the pi. GPIO pins engage many people who are interested in seeing tangible results of programming.

Fifteen years ago (I remember the apartment where I had this thought), it occurred to me that time was running out to write an authentic novel. Soon, computers would generate whole stories in an endless variety of styles, and even if future

If I had to guess, this is probably not even Adobe's fault. They probably have a legal requirement to do this, like every goddamn site asking you about cookies.

I'm trying to think of a reason not to just drop a microSD card in the mail addressed to the journo. Are we going to do better than physical media delivery? The only way to be found out would be some sort of surveillance of the mailbox

I work with a guy who makes a lot more than me, and he describes his salary as "spending money" because he has so many other ventures, contract jobs, and investments. His attitude about code is that no one in the future is going t

Some people advocate for a secure httpOnly session cookie for the client, letting the server hold onto the JWT and manage refresh. This gets you the benefit of server to server access via the token as well as the "session" concept

by 4star3star 2y ago
How do you find out a single token got leaked within the token lifetime? If it's that easy to detect a leaked token, why aren't you stopping the leak in the first place?

I'm unconvinced of the author's actual understanding of common JWT usage. Suppose you use Azure. You may have one or more app registrations with defined roles as well as apis exposed within the Azure config. It's convenient t

Then what's needed is a sea drone that tags along with whales and collects context for their language.

Some feedback on your site's UX - on desktop, I don't expect hovering on a menu item to open a new context, so by habit I click on it. You're opening on hover, though, and my click is closing the context immediately.

I would guess it's often better to make a slightly more complicated interface if that is what provides the best experience for an adept user. If you need the interface to satisfy the needs of a user from the first minute they experienc

Coming from dotnet, I rather like the Go pattern as you've described it. I would normally catch and error and then write out a custom message with relevant information, anyway, and I hate the ergonomics of the try{}catch(Exception ex){

The saying makes less sense to a modern audience. We can all pull out our phones and likely show the same time due to network time sync. BUT, what if we have 1000 phones all showing the same time, and they are ALL wrong? New layer to the se
