In my mind you are wasting time and enabling your team to get away with not fix your CI. The worst part is the false sense of security that you get that will bite your team the second you miss reviewing a change or go on vacation

And there's EXWM if you want to keep going. I guess people have also tried to set emacs as their init process.

Not a crypto expert, but given how both, bad players seeking control and people seeking to verify their cloud machines are both remote it seems that the technology will rollout without problem and will end up being force fed into all consum

Sounds like even more fraud. Here you can apply the new filter to historic data or create a new metric version and keep the old version to avoid breaking continuity in what's measured.

But we don't need paper these days. What I meant is to switch from being shown somewhat relevant ads while you try to do something else, to searching for relevant stuff whenever you truly need it.

So are we stuck with vi because vim, neovim, and helix had no spam budget?
337.
by dietr1ch 1y ago
Yeah, but serving that doesn't cost that much and dropping the advertisement platform would drop it further (and let engineers fix search instead of shaving milliseconds from ad bidding)

1. No, it puts people in control of when they query the index instead of spamming everywhere eyesight could possibly stare at. 2. That's fine, you want something new or something you don't know where to get? Query an index. You wa

1. It makes sense that the business are the ones paying to get listed and vetted. We are now starting to need those blue checkmarks for a reason, some verification process is necessary, and then serving costs. 2. Why? You wouldn't sear

You are conflating slapping ads in people's faces with making your business listed on the white/yellow/whatever pages and allowing people to find you without being a jerk.

True, but to me it seems the product is halfway there with org-roam/logseq/obsidian and that Rust code is the wrong way to start building it. I'd try generating markdown to be rendered in logseq by teaching the AI how to link

I doubt Starlink can somehow bypass Canadian law. It's the countries who rule and enforce the EM spectrum usage on their land, and countries are prepared to go to great extents in enforcing whatever rule they come up with.

Masking is just acting in a way that you normally wouldn't, but have to. Think of a spy blending in avoiding to get caught, it's a conscious effort not to screw up and it takes more energy/willpower from you than not having t

Git tracks the history of the codebase your agent writes. It's useful for agents preparing new releases and hotfixes.

It's a problem in the underlying model, not an implementation flaw, but still an engineering flaw in my book.

The distributed part is what forces creating Ids outside of the server, where UUIDs become useful, and also where systems become reliable. Last year I went to renew my Id and they told me, sorry, the (centralised) system is down, but before
347.
by dietr1ch 1y ago
With sequential Ids you use one of two sequences, - table-global sequence :: Which leaks activity signals to all users that can create and see new Ids. This is the naive sequence you get when creating an incremental Id in a table. - user-lo

by dietr1ch 1y ago
Primary keys to what? Users wanting to get a specific piece of data will need to know some user-visible Id for that. You can masquerade internal Ids with opaque Ids if you want to maintain a translation layer. There's also more distrib

by dietr1ch 1y ago
The actual concern is privacy. Privacy wise, - Knowing sequential IDs leaks the rate of creation and amount of said entity which can translate in number of customers or rate of sales. - Knowing timed IDs leaks activity patterns. This gets w

You forgot to tilt it and to push the Greenwich meridian out of the center.

Isn't this undisguised cultural appropriation? They are using it to try distance themselves from the already crowded Taiwanese and Chinese industry, but seem to hold no ties to South America other than probably indirect mining. I guess

It bothers me more than it should that the company behind it's called Andes technology, names project after cities, their chips after native animals, yet wasn't founded in South America nor has a base or team over there.

Think about how easy it became to switch mobile carriers. The state of things in the Internet is closer to mobile companies before phone numbers were easily portable across carriers. Can I stop using GMail? yes, but not really. Same as I wa

My way of shopping with my bike is either taking my obviously pricey bike, which I can just walk into the supermarket without anyone thinking it could be left outside, or just take my old 25kg bike that's kind of not worth stealing and

My motorized freedom dreams got stuck in increasingly worse traffic. Nowadays I dream of a "bikeable" commute and grocery shopping and whatever works best between public transport and driving on the weekends.

Your "coding team" there isn't actually coding most of the time. Sitting down to type isn't the bottleneck, but the work that needs to happen so you can sit down and type what needs to be typed.

I've thought of sporting bright IR LEDs that just mess up with lighting conditions without covering the plate. I'm not sure how well that could work in practice though
