It's also often a way to avoid saying things in public, in writing, that normal people would be upset about. If they truly think they're in the right, they can discuss it in public, like the poster already did .

I think it's because it's almost never accompanied by "we may have fucked up, please help us understand how to fix it now and in the future". It's almost always (like this time) "I'm sorry you feel that wa

many (vast majority I've seen) have a heater, but won't heat the water sufficiently for the pre-wash cycle from cold. or, frequently, the second / wash cycle, unless you set it to a high temp mode, and even then it's

depends very much on where you are, unfortunately. in USA, this is definitely not the case, they're almost all incredibly dumb. especially the cheapest-possible models that most renters are forced to use (and renters account for ab

the normalization doc is interesting too imo: https://unicode.org/reports/tr15/ in particular, the differences between NFC and NFKC are "fun", and rather meaningful in many cases. e.g. NFC says that &qu

in case this implies you haven't found it: it's a feature in Sequoia :) it's just in display settings, though you may have to turn on the "show all resolutions" toggle to show it. I haven't used Tahoe personal

there's a fairly good chance that you simply haven't noticed , because it was working as intended, e.g. https://standardebooks.org/feeds/rss/new-releases from: https://news.ycombinator.com&#x

yeah... their older videos are a bit more useful from what I remember (more time spent on the research paper content, etc), but they've become so content-free that I just block the channel outright nowadays. it's the "this c

it's kinda like saying "we still show pixels". true but almost totally useless for understanding anything.

yeah, I mostly see it competing with Lua and small function execution in a safe sandbox (e.g. similar scope as eBPF). and maybe for locking down problematic stuff that isn't ultra performance sensitive, like many drivers. so agreed, p

you can finally set a screen resolution that just stays below the notch! I'm not sure when that became available, but I just used it a couple weeks ago.

huh. is this due to ambiguity in whether you want gzipped content vs gzipped transport (of arbitrary content), and/or which range the bytes are requesting? I can see both being useful, but I don't know what headers are available

I'm honestly not seeing much here that isn't identical to almost all other general purpose RPC systems: https://graphql.org/learn/authorization/ "check that the user matches the data they're re

yeah, I took one look at it and said "great, so add some cost tracking and kill requests before they exceed it" because like. obviously. it's similar to exposing a SQL endpoint: you need to build for that up front or the ob

having never hosted a GraphQL service, but I can see many obvious room for problems: is there some reason GraphQL gets so much hate? it always feels to me like it's mostly just a normal RPC system but with some incredibly useful featu

wifi adb is a clever workaround, lol. I haven't seen that before, but it does kinda make sense. I've used SAI before (though it has been having lots more problems in the past year or three), but haven't seen Shizuku. thank

AFAICT it only works on non-rooted devices when used over USB to access another device , because without root it has no access to the adb server on the phone running termux. I'm definitely not 100% sure about that though, so someone p

redis is a good point, I've made MANY >64k key maps there in the past, some up to half a million (and likely more if we didn't rearchitect before we got bigger).

SQLite might too, though I'm struggling to find anything explicit about the syntax: https://sqlite.org/json1.html#jptr it might just be a very limited subset?

you really only need it at the entry point to have a trace ID... but yeah. tracing is hard to add on later, though I'm glad it's becoming more common for newer code.

For debugging purposes, because having users tell you what error they got is sometimes very useful: generate a random number (e.g. a uuid), log it with the error, and display that number. doesn't leak data because it's different e

There is NB_INPLACE_ADD... but I'm struggling to find enough details to be truly confident :\ possibly its existence is misleading other people (thus me) to think += is a single operation in bytecode. Or, on further reading, maybe it

I've nearly seen the opposite - tons of libraries and tons of user code that uses globals either directly or transitively. I have not been seeing good Python code, for sure. Hopefully it's not a majority. But it's very fa

well. "Google said this" is pretty close nowadays. the other two are still incomparably better in practice though.

Since this is being downvoted: no, I'm quite serious. CORS lets sites define their own security boundaries between subdomains, with mutual validation. If you're hosting user content in a subdomain, just don't allow-origin it
