The author misses the point that most of these "zealots" don't want everything to be dark. They want everything to have the option to be viewed in light or dark mode, which is fair

This has nothing to do with Rust itself. While the compiler does prevent a lot of common pitfalls, you can still write erroneous code with it. It's entirely the rustler project's effort (and goal) to wrap any kind of Rust program

True, I'm definitely not saying Android is any better. And yes, aside from the fact that there's obviously a lot of value to be had, I have grown to simply hate mobile development for that very reason. Every vendor will make whate

Agreed, these are surprisingly on point. The flow of 80/15/5 is what true seniority looks like in my opinion. Do a lot of the heavy lifting on a goal, explore valuable (and sometimes promising but with a stretch) avenues around th

Absolutely understandable. I've actually been in the exact same situation when I was still using Philips Hue. I was using HuePro on Android, which is (or unfortunately rather, was) also an incredibly powerful and well polished applicat

I actually didn't count live service games like Overwatch in this category, to be honest. Overwatch is deliberately designed as an ever evolving service instead of a product you purchase. With games like these, there is no way to ever

You're right, that was definitely an exaggeration on my end.

Apple did a good job shifting that away from the customer. As a developer, I do dread every one of their updates.

Philips Hue is very stable when it comes to controlling the lights via Zigbee and them meshing properly. The customer facing part (mobile app, cloud integrations, etc.) though... whole another story. Not to mention the relatively frequent a

Which is an absolute shame because in the end it just causes many more millions to be wasted on re-building yet another somewhat "complete" automation solution with a different vendor lock-in that will become obsolete in 5 years.

Really depends on how you use it. In my experience, the smarter you want to make your home, the more it will just get in your way, no matter how good or bad the technology is. If you use a system like HA to automate a lot of simple things,

While this is being done intentionally now, it has been an issue for over a decade. - And it hasn't kept people from preserving these games in the slightest. Even now, there is a lot of work being put into reviving games that required

If you're just in time, yes. Everyone after you is out of luck and can develop software for $200/m then.

People have fallen out of planes and survived. It happens, with a bit of luck.

If anything, this just tells us that tooling should incorporate commit messages a lot more. While these kind of messages are most valuable in large projects, there are some of them in a lot of projects and they could have saved a lot of tim

You tell me, you just posted on one of them.

I see where this is coming from but making platforms fully liable for user content will make it impossible to start a business that includes (semi-) public user interaction at all. Only FAANG-size companies will be able to afford the legal

It doesn't make sense if you effectively rent the panels, which means they have to come down again.

I'm pretty sure that would violate the clause that explicitly prevents them from working around the bill by making it absurdly inaccessible for the user. After the USB C debacle, the EU has learned to include such a clause pretty well,

At least some users will. Not the original but a regurgitated version on some news site. That's all they can do, so why wouldn't they.

Bet your sweet bippy they won't hesitate a single second to elaborately point out any scam happening via apps in third party marketplaces.

I mean... that's what they always do. Though usually by technical means within their power. Now that that's taken away, they just start gaslighting the consumer. I'm not going to pretend EU law is a flawless godsend but I als

It was not about the contribution but about the moment. The Wright brothers achieved the first powered flight on earth and Ingenuity achieved the first powered flight on another planet. I think people are well aware that it's neither t

The other replies cover "the why" adequately already but as a tangent: Every company makes some effort to be green and eco friendly these days, yet we're perfectly happy wasting billions of hours of compute time every second

It's not ideally written but it's safe to assume if someone compiles a quick test program for that purpose and it ends up being 4MB, they might just move on to other options instead of starting to think about how they can manually

This seems very nice and clean, I like it! A tangent: This style of status page and the goal that most of these projects (like this) try to achieve is always displaying the uptime of a service based on some HTTP request. In how many cases i

Can you summarize what made the switch worthwhile for you? I've been using zsh/omz with a customized powerlevel10k for years now and I see fish mentioned all the time but I didn't really find a compelling reason to try it out

I mean, they were. Back then, humans often outperformed machines in very rapidly evolving situations like these because there's only so much problem solving tech you can pack into 80kg. I would actually argue that the only reason this

Everyone praises the writeup itself but the fact that the article dynamically generates all the graphics based on your input is even more awesome!
