There's about ten games that require a SMS controller to work.

The analogy to SQL injection is a user's input (what they chose their username to be) is directly influencing how the system works.

I've never used gitlab but this issue has definitely caused me to take pause. It sort of feels like "not allowing 'OR' in strings to prevent SQL injection."

This is my first exposure to Spasm (a wasm web framework where apps are written in D) and my first impressions are quite positive. https://github.com/skoppe/spasm

By that logic all software should be free too.

But if you keep reading he then makes the argument that despite that, there's still quality content to be found and gives some nice examples.

Although I do agree with all of this. I sometimes feel like "distributes the responsibility" can actually cause things to slip through the cracks. The reviewer thinks "eh, I didn't write this, what I saw looked fine&quot

It's been in very active development for the past couple years or so. Lately it seems like it's been stabilizing and I'm now pretty happy with Storybook. I agree it's still heavy and when it breaks may god help you. But

One thing I really like about Proton is with smaller indie games, they almost always work perfectly. When I tell a developer their new game works flawlessly on Linux they are usually grateful that the question of whether to port or not to L

I wonder how many people who rely on Linux have truly moved to WSL? I gave it a try and I find real Linux vastly superior. Hybrid Windows+WSL apps, what is the point? Developing Windows apps with .NET is very easy and pleasant. Don't g

The campus is large, and I certainly didn't see all of it. It's possible some of the older buildings weren't designed as well? The buildings I frequented had wide hallways, large windows and a decent amount of natural light (

I had an office when I was at Microsoft. It wasn't dark or depressing. It was very nice. Throughout the entire Redmond campus, can't say I ever saw an office that was dark or depressing. But with that said, I found the offices mad

Anecdotally this seems correct to me. A friend of mine has had several viral TikTok videos hit millions of views, and he's only been on TikTok for a little while. He did no outside promotion. I think the only way a new YouTube video wo

I find early 2010ish PCs still meet my needs just fine. Desktop PCs of that era you can practically get for free.

Why does it have to be an either/or? Of course Stallman and a large group of volunteers can't compete with giant corporations. But their contributions are very valuable and needed. It also turns out that few hundred billion dollar

A good time to thank Stallman for seeing all this coming and preparing way back in 1983. As far as I know he was the first person to kick off the open source OS effort, and of course quite a few people have helped over the decades.

Re-releasing old games on new systems is pretty common. Crash Bandicoot got re-released on the PS4 for example. So companies are going to hold onto their assets in hopes of being able to cash in on them again.

Sierra games of the era also did this, very similar to how scummVM works.

I've been using it for a couple months now as my main editor. Overall I really like it. It's just a touch laggy. So for example if you press esc then try to do a normal mode command, sometimes your key presses still go into insert

On a similar note, as I understand it skimmers placed on ATM machines and the like are now so small they are almost impossible to detect.

There's also the pessimistic view that we will actually lose progress and regress over time. Jonathan Blow has an interesting talk on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pW-SOdj4Kkk

We recently gutted our bathroom down to the studs/subfloor and redid it ourselves. No prior experience. YouTube and Google made it all possible. We did hire a plumber for the shower plumbing, anything that's going to be encased in

I agree. I find this approach works very well. The component's own styles are just related to how it looks: color, images, fonts, etc. The parent's styles tell a child where to go in the layout. In general I find if I maintain thi

I agree which is why I find ChromeOS's marketing campaign strange[1]. The commercials talk about no viruses, never slowing down, etc. Basically pointing out common issues with traditional OSes. [1] https://www.youtube.com&#x

The pacing in this article is really nice. Each example is just enough new to not overwhelm, and the deficiency within them is pretty obvious that allows a clean lead into the next talking point to address it. I found this article enjoyable

I did as well. I'm contracting here and there and then the rest of the time just building what I want to build. It's pretty damn nice.

I'm the opposite, I love the death of phone calls. Phone calls being synchronous and forcing you to pay attention to them immediately is incredibly annoying. Just let it go to voicemail? Sure, but then just text me.

Apple is one of the most user hostile companies there is, yet they seem to completely lack that reputation. Their marketing team is phenomenal.
