Yeah, I personally know a couple people where self-research found the correct diagnosis, and I am one of them. We had a fantastic primary, who worked with us quite closely and did a lot of research after we found some new information from h

tbh I thought it was explicitly stated somewhere. literally every seller I've talked to has mentioned it at some point.

Those extremely rare moments when you open the door literally on zero, with no sound, and the display showing 0s, are like half of the reason I use a microwave. Man vs machine at its most visceral, it makes me feel alive

In some states, employers are required to provide this as an option, at least for some devices: https://www.driversnote.com/blog/state-requirements-cell-pho... Obviously it should be everywhere, for all tools needed

I really wish they'd name-and-shame the brands. I don't see how hiding it helps encourage better behavior. If anything, it seems like they should be publishing legal ranges, and rewarding testing labs that catch things outside i

after an initial "... is that a misquote too? sounds super low" I decided to hunt around. I haven't seen anything on that low of a dose... but doing the math, it does seem to make some sense I suppose. a rough check of t

If software filters are reducing total light by 50% while only affecting blue-ish tones, and that's a total light level comparable to multiple brightness steps on a Mac... tbh I think it's reducing it quite a lot. Many I see u

From seeing the feeds of a few categories of people near me (some using it semi-professionally, some just personally, some like me that avoid it unless strictly necessary)... it really does seem to be all of them. Absolute garbage is a maj

that'd give you 2.5mg, which is still almost 10x more than what I linked. it's possible to split and separate them enough of course, but beyond "roughly half" it gets rather difficult. I've considered getting the

So the main claim presented here is that reducing blue reduces total "light" (lumens? watts?) by 50% (totally believable), and that reduction in light is all that matters for sleep? That seems reasonable. The pseudoscience wank

Yeah, I'd really have liked to see something like [Trio]( https://trio.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ ) gain mid more attention in Python. Structured approaches can prevent a huge amount of those issues, and Python

Not true! There are a fair number of them, and they're even reasonably general-purpose, e.g. https://www.ponylang.io/ Most that can recall achieve this by simply not having any locks at all. That's feasible with s

They're particularly bad about concurrent go code, in my experience - it's almost always tutorial-like stuff, over-simplified and missing error and edge case handling to the point that it's downright dangerous to use... but i

I suspect a significant amount of that is due to requiring more than one file (the binary itself) and having to learn about multiple packaging and distribution systems. That's a gigantic wall to climb compared to "put a binary o

It is somewhat different when your system forces binaries to be signed... but yeah, largely agreed. The abject refusal of curl|sh is strange to me, unless the refusers are also die-hard GPL adherents. Binaries are significantly more opaqu

The Arch wiki has rapidly become my go-to source for every time I need a real answer... and honestly it should just become my default for everything Linux. It's astoundingly high quality, some of the best content out there whether or

Evil deserves to be called out as evil. Why should we constrain the discussion to anything else about them? The absolute best thing they can do for the world would be to disappear, as soon as possible.

An account that's 24 years old? That doesn't raise any warning flags for me, only possibly-positive ones.

Yeah, so far I see mislabeled-pilot, and episodes 3 and 4. That... does not (currently) look like "Babylon 5 is now free to watch". That looks like a minor probing to see if they can charge for it again somewhere. That kind of thi

Yea, it was really only ever "libpurple let you easily use them all in one app nearly transparently, and many people did". Many did use XMPP under the hood, but afaik almost literally none federated. Matrix is seemingly trying t

It's overwhelmingly more of an outsider talking point than an actual issue in practice. There's a category of people that just says any extensible protocol must fundamentally have massive amounts of incompatibility, and brings i

That doesn't give you a way to exclude conflicting code, unfortunately, so you can't provide an optimal one for non-test code with it. And stuff like `func SetTime(...)` in a _test.go file only works for tests in that same package

Unless you use Cloudflare (or roughly any other DDOS protection system), in which case you're letting those companies MITM all requests on purpose. Protected between you and Cloudflare by PFS and any other acronym you like. I think the

I suspect that using a build tag (say `test`) and two function definitions (one that directly calls `time.Now()` and one test-only one that uses a mutable var) will optimize out to zero cost in the non-test case - last I fiddled with that

Particularly because "you must use only an approved passkey manager" is fairly easily solved by MDM, which is already widespread. It's DRM, and it will go down exactly the same anti-user and anti-competitive route as every ot
