Sedatives are not mandatory. They take you out for a day and in my personal (informed by direct experience) opinion are not worth it (I would rather have the time to spend doing things I want to rather than have a day of recovery from sedat

I wrote a system for this for my house. Entry of the expiry date is manual, and I haven't implemented notifcations yet, but barcodes solve most of the rest of the issues.

Websites can contain links to other websites. But, even for links to the same website, the user agent and unique combination of requests is enough to identify this as use of the share menu and track which users/IPs/whatever shared

I think realistically most of the things people seriously care about pledging are complex application and server software so yes the point is you run into problems trying to pledge things. Obviously you can come up with the minimum set of t

Pledge works well if the software developers implement it on their own application. It also works well if the software developers document what syscalls they rely on and what permissions they need. When it comes to retrofitting something li

I don't think this has anything to do with capitalism. We have carpenters under capitalism and the companies hiring them don't force them into stand-ups every morning with some guy who has never nailed two pieces of wood together

On the one hand, yes, at this point "that's not true Agile" is starting to sound like a no true Scotsman fallacy. On the other hand, the way the term "agile" is used now really has no relation to anything in the agi

Yes but you can retrofit them (either immediately or if/when they start to drift) which I get is not as good as having them OOTB but on the other hand, I don't have nearly enough time to play games to have to worry about stick dri

To be fair. I have never really heard of pushing to master as a CI technique for git. You would push to your own publicly visible branch and some script would automatically attempt to merge into a CI branch unless there's merge conflic

I'd say that regardless of what you do (aside from just blocking framing) you are likely to fall afoul of some UK law. Fun fact: UK law exists only to make sure that every person in the UK is guilty of something by the time they reach

Have you actually tried using your banking application on a recent (post introduction of sandboxed Google Play) GrapheneOS? Restricting things to only Google ROMs basically also means your banking app won't work on a bunch of non-googl

Device attestation works for banking applications on GrapheneOS. The only thing which doesn't work is google wallet because they explcitly expect a Google signed operating system.

Honestly, after years of writing python I have now gotten to a point where I fear dynamic typing. The fact that Erlang and Elixir do not have static typing, outside of a voluntary type checker, makes me worry about using them. And yes, the

On Linux you can unlink open files even on a FAT formatted partition (I just tried it with busybox). It's actually quite intriguing how this works. When you delete a file on FAT it seems to remove the directory entry, but does not upda

The suggested replacement: StrictYAML is actually pretty excellent. I like it a lot. Seems to solve a lot of the issues I have with regular JSON, YAML and TOML. The only thing I wish there was a way to go directly between StrictYAML and dat

I think maybe you should familiarise yourself with how e.g. ext4 works. You can unlink a file and have a process still hold a reference to the inode. This allows you to continue reading (or executing) a file which may not have been fully ma

I would love to switch to Wayland, but so far, Xwayland still works worse for non-96 DPI setups than just X11 with Xft.dpi set to a non-96 value. I can't understand why Xwayland opts to have applications render at 96-dpi and upscale as

It's not really to different to giving your web browser access to your GPU (and by extension to random websites using WebGL). So yes, it's dangerous. But it is at least a threat which designers of GPUs are already considering. Alt
