Seconding this. I've been running Safehouse for months and love that it can wrap any process (it's just a wrapper around the native macOS sandbox API, after all). The only thing I miss is the ability to limit network access, which

Postgres's whole origin story is basically to think outside the box and don't be constrained by existing thinking. Stonebraker thought existing databases were too limited in terms of their data types and expressiveness. He started

The onus is on the DMCA processor to verify the legitimacy of the claim. I don't have a real solution, but Congress created the problem and should solve it. There's of course a whole legal system that has been dealing with this

A good start would be to require that claimants must verify their real identity. The claim in this case was made by an apparent pseudonym and their address is fictional. Both should themselves be reason to reject the claim. The fact that an

I love sqlc, but I think it's more fair to say it's an SQL code generator for Postgres and Go. Everything else is much less well-supported. You can pretty much forget about trying to use it with ClickHouse or SQLite, for example.

You shouldn't do this, as others have said. Also, some medications must not be crushed at all. In my experience, the best way to give cats pills is a pill pocket, e.g. from Greenies [1]. The pocket is a hollow, soft cat treat. You put

I'm not sure I understand this argument. I create new tools all the time as part of my development work, and I have skills stored that tell agents how to use them. They use them flawlessly. When I say "benchmark the query engine u

Also Spotify. I believe Spotify was one of the earliest adopters of CEF, maybe the first major adopter? The desktop app was originally a native C++ app, but they switched to CEF around 2011-2012. (It caused a very noticeable drop in perform

My team uses git-spice [1], which is client-side only and works just as well as Graphite. Aviator [2] is also good, and they have a hosted UI with merge queue support as well. [1] https://github.com/abhinav/git-spice [

This is one of my favorite short stories. Ballard is best known for his novels, but he also wrote a number of exceptional stories — some favourites include "The Drowned Giant", "A Question of Re-Entry", "The Termina

Stalker has an interesting history, because Tarkovsky did shoot the Strugatskys' own screenplay first. But almost all of the shot film was accidentally damaged beyond repair by the Soviet lab — they were using specially imported Koda
