Social problems are the hard ones, information problems are the easy ones. So the latter are the low-hanging fruit that gets solved first

Why is this API public at all? Could Apple not just restrict access?

Wait why do the QR codes actually look like the video frames? I interpreted this as "convert the binary of an arbitrary file into a series of QR codes". Is that just a coincidence?

Sure, maybe that was the intent. But most of the objects I see in the linked video are cheap and mass-produced (a water bottle, some sticky notes, some plastic toys), which makes it feel totally different

I'm not Japanese and it was upsetting to me Not because eg one piano got destroyed; surely that happens all the time, even on camera for eg movies and such. But there was something about watching beautiful objects be destroyed, in slow

I thought this was going to be about shipping web components made with React, but it's about consuming web components from apps made with React, which is a much more sensible thing to do in my opinion The problem with web components

Spent a lot of time on the I-35 corridor between Austin and Dallas in the last 15 years There's still a ton of farmland/open/rural space, but you pass a number of smaller cities along the highway (Waco, Temple, West, etc), an

Does Bevy have a graphical editor yet (or one on the roadmap)? It seems like it has good bones, but taking real territory away from Unity or Godot will be hard without an editor (not just for non-programmers; some game dev tasks are just wa

Fwiw, Rust's standard library has a cross-platform Simd abstraction: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/simd/index.html It's nightly-only for now, but I've used it and it's lovely. I've added S

I'm not sure using deno compile as a way of deploying to a controlled environment has much benefit anyway. Unlike some other languages/runtimes, only a single system dependency is really needed (a new-enough deno installation) to

I make something of a hobby out of filing Apple Maps corrections. Partly for my own reference, partly to support businesses (especially ones I really love), and partly just because there are lots of opportunities to do so because it isn&#x2

The Bluesky protocol doesn't really allow non-public posts (which is why blocking doesn't work the way some people would like it to, and why there can't be features like Circles) I believe Twitter does support paid private po

It may just be that I don't use the shell very much compared with other people, mostly for building and running local code

I'm curious to hear what people's usecases are for retaining long shell history. For myself, I never really use it beyond the current work day (up arrow)

Yeah. They're highly flaky, but counterbalanced by being very easy to update when they break IMO, if you've decided to test flaky behaviors of the code anyway, you may as well do it in a way where updating is really easy

There's a similar concept of "snapshots" in UI testing, which I maybe should have included in the post I think snapshots definitely lower (but don't eliminate) the cost of a certain class of tests, and can sometimes tip

Yeah, the idea isn't that this type of code should never be tested but that it's a higher burden to test, and maybe less valuable to test, compared with other code. And that should be factored into the decision (and there should
