If I remember correctly, PSD files have an optional header (when files are saved in "Compatibility Mode", which I think is the default) in which is encoded the rasterized image. It's then "easy" to display the image

I've contributed to a lot of repositories, and I've yet to see a single one where tests aren't automatically run. I can only think of a single one where some benchmarks are run on-demand.

How do you think social engineering audits work? You first coordinate with the top layer (in private, of course) and only after getting their agreement do you start your tests. This isn't any different.

Speaking of Yarn in particular since I maintain it, I strongly believe that more than speed we (package managers) need a good polish. And to do that, we need a community that feels empowered to make changes when they feel frustrated about s

We now use it to build Yarn, and it's been working very well. Still some rough edges that prevent us from adopting it at work (like the lack of dynamic imports when the import expression references variables), but I'm slowly makin

Don't casinos ban players who for example know how to count cards? This would imply that skills may trump the house edge, and thus a bot that would know how to stop (ie how to hide their skill) could stay ahead.

I had this problem at first (I kept my source codes in a separate drive to be able to edit them from my Windows IDE), but nowadays I just keep all my code files in WSL and I don't notice the problem at all anymore. VSCode makes interac

I know it's the official reason, but it's also a really bad one - nothing prevents current JSON parsers to add some weird syntactic rules inside plain strings (similar to "use strict" in JS), but you don't see tha

I can answer this a bit - I maintain Yarn, a JS package manager. While nowhere near Curl, it does have a fairly significant user base - at least a few million devs, from what I understand. For all this work, I received exactly two emails th

I'm really disappointed in this change - we use an internal extension in my company to quickly jump from one place to another, and this change means that all our internal users will have to re-learn this workflow - with the expectation

GitHub searches are particularly bad. They always give you test folders and examples before and after actual relevant source code. You'd think they would know that folders named "test" should be in a separate section...

Regarding TypeScript, I think it's important to point out that we have a working PR in the TypeScript repository that we've been maintaining for about a year now. It's not so much special casing as being ahead of trunk. I sti

It would make sense to print the registry before asking for the new version in `yarn publish`, so that you get a chance to double-check that the publish target is what you expect. Will open a PR for the 1.16, unless someone beats me to it :
