In the original Doom you could use IDKFA and IDDQD for infinite ammo and godmode (from memory!)

What a time to be a kid. Computers and games were absolute magic . Some of us were lucky enough to have a 386 and if we squished the screen down far enough we could get a reasonable framerate. Some of us were lucky enough to have mates wit

To be fair, he does say that he took that away as a lesson. He listed it first, so I’m charitably going to call it the “primary lesson”

I used a service years ago that did effectively this. PiCloud were sadly absorbed into Dropbox but before that they had exactly this model of fanning out tasks to workers transparently. They would effectively bundle your code and execute it

I have a rule not to revert migrations in production. If things have gone wrong enough that you need to rollback then there are all sorts of ways that trying to go back again could be bad news. My main worry is that I’d end up with 3 classe

Ha. Had similar once. We were running a site hosted by “mega corp” and filtering results was just broken on live. After a protracted series of forms to get error logs I realised they were silently striping the “select” from the selection_id

I had a lovely one the other day when trying to contact FreshWorks support. I just want to cancel an account but as far as I can tell they’ve sunset the service so I’m forced to go through the support process. I couldn’t even submit the for

Golly. It’s a bit of a slap in the face to click through to A List Apart and see the header broken on mobile. It’s still so clean though after all these years.

I’m not arguing for / against any specific technology. I’m saying that relying on a lack of security flaws in one layer isn’t a great idea.

I don’t understand the downvotes here. The application should be as resistant to xss as possible but things do sneak through and we should try to limit the damage in other layers. An example is that you could think you have no xss issue

Or maybe make it so there’s no backspace? It’s a bit easy in it’s current form.

As a smug AAISP customer that was my reaction on reading the title. They’re one of the few honest isps. If they lose connection to your house they notify you immediately and then again once the connection is back up telling you how long it

You’re at work. Sure, there’s Slack - but dial the notifications down as much as you can. Almost none of us need access to social tools in that time. If you can’t help yourself then do what developers do and use tech to stop you reaching fo

As a general rule, you really do want to set up SPF, dkim and dmarc. Without them there’s a real vulnerability there. The annoying case is when you have them correctly configured but are using ~all instead of -all so you still need to deal

I’m going to put whatever did I or didn’t happen here aside and marvel for a moment at how complicated it must be to coordinate the logistics behind managing release schedules of both hardware and software and preinstalling OSs on all these

Once I can replicate an issue locally, I don’t normally find it too difficult to understand what’s happening. Harder is reproducing a bug based on what I’ve got to go on in Sentry. Mostly it’s easy enough to figure out but the traces you ge

It’s irrational, but I always stand on the sidelines of these conversations being a little bit cross that people slag off rebasing. At some point someone pointed out that rebasing changed the history and if you change the history of a publi

That’s my plan. We’re in the Uk and it’s basically rained most days this year. Will take a look once things dry out. In the meantime I’ve just been leaving the windows open for ventilation anyway.

I built myself a shed earlier in the year and the right now my unclosable windows are a damning reminder of this fact.

That’s a lot of rats, but I can see why! I was totally naive and unprepared going into it. As a result, we got ours from people who had done a terrible job with them. The cage was just wire levels with nothing for them to explore. They’re n

Obviously a little different but we got pet rats recently and they’re lovely little creatures. Super inquisitive and you have to have a steady stream of ways to hide their food as a form of enrichment so they don’t get bored. Apparently you

Surprised they let you pick something without defining the aggregate as it seems really dangerous. Not entirely sure how far it extends but I’ve noticed that Postgres will let you select any rows from the table that way if you’ve included t
