Yep! It requires ESM, which had other knock on effects in my codebase, IIRC with Lexical. I needed to hack around this a bit for Deno's module system as well (using esm.sh to preprocess Lexical) but it was a much nicer DX.

I got thoroughly frustrated with Deno on a side project for similar reasons (leaky node compat abstractions, kludgey interop between code that does IO the Deno way and Node modules, immature Deno stdlib, undermaintained Deno libraries, spoo

I had my first serious medical procedure a year and a half ago, which required a rare specialist. My insurance, Anthem Blue Cross, covered everything, and called and mailed me ahead of time confirming my hospital stay at UCSF was approved a

Ubuntu has a bunch of non-GUI server flavors. It's a common base image for cloud VMs, similar to Debian. https://ubuntu.com/download/server

It's very funny and odd that they retained the "God's in his heaven, all's right with the world" text.

It's legal to charge for distributions of GPL licensed projects. The OSI definition [1] specifically notes it's one of the freedoms in licenses considered open source. Back in the mid 2000s I recall seeing drama about projects lik

Agreed. I would not consider running a closed source shell because it's not auditable.

Discord's iOS and Android apps are built using React Native [1]. This enables business logic to be shared with the desktop and web clients, as well as shared UI components between both mobile apps. Part of the reason you see abandoned

Fandom is completely unusable these days without an ad blocker. I'm surprised communities still put up with it. Why hasn't another free wiki host emerged?

Yep, but you need to do it on the board of a proprietary doorbell. Many projects take a cheap one and modify it. The unique thing about ratgdo is it reverse engineered the protocol.

The problem with this is Chamberlain also implemented an encrypted protocol over their control wires in the name of "security".

ratgdo is the perfect bridge for folks who want local-only control -- it can even read the open/close/light state off the signal wires.

On Pixel phones you can assign the extra dim toggle to pressing both volume keys at once. It's also accessible on many Android phones via a quick settings tile.

Re: MyQ, check out ratgdo [1]. It's a lovely little hardware project that wires into Chamberlain/Liftmaster controllers and provides a local WiFi-only interface. It integrates perfectly with HA and requires no soldering or disasse

Yes, using native SVG is a feature not a bug. As is using native text nodes. Converting to paths is a postprocessing step and not difficult to do. The hard part is making a WYSIWYG editor, which both Figma and Penpot accomplish beautifully.

Awesome project! I'd strongly recommend swapping in some antireflective glass. There's a couple affordable options with less than 1% reflection [1][2]. Made a huge difference vs. stock acrylic on my frames that get lots of environ

Same selling points as Chromium originally: faster and safer. The premise of Servo is that it'd make better use of multicore and would be safer because it was written in a memory-safe language. For modern users the big one is probably

Have you looked at the Zenphone 10? That appears to be the true Pixel 3 successor.

Likewise, fair enough. I appreciate you clarifying your threat model. I try to operate with low trust dev environments whenever possible, which is a major motivation for using VMs. It only takes one malicious npm or pip package for it to pa

My motivation for sandboxing is to fearlessly tinker with unfamiliar dependencies without thinking too deeply about the supply chain. Starting with isolation makes it safer to experiment, which is important to me for velocity.

For example, let's say I've got a git repo on a guest VM and I'm syncing the dir to the host. If I run `git push` on the host (because my ssh key is there), it implicitly runs any pre-push script dropped there by the guest, d

Yep! I run code-server inside the guest VM (or remote host). It's a great middle ground for snappy editing and isolation. Re: provisioning, really basic automation around KVM. I've been meaning to experiment with Firecracker for m

Mounting a guest fs or syncing it to the host is rife with security footguns. I've developed almost exclusively in VMs for over a decade. One reason I use VMs is to isolate the execution context from development and deployment. I used
