I also wouldn't expect "undefined" to be consistent within a single compiler implementation. The optimizer is free to make different instances behave differently.

Yeah, the tiff bug was one of the the first few iOS jailbreaks. The wiki says 1.0-1.1.1: https://www.theiphonewiki.com/wiki/LibTiff_Exploit I wrote a patch to fix it that one of the jailbreaks used. I wasn't in th

I think the barrier would be loss of access to friends and family. Especially group chats. From inertia, conversations would continue on iMessage without the person who switched. I would like to see iMessage on other platforms, but I don&#

Probably the five links to /usr/local/bin/python3 in node_modules. Does the app need node_modules bundled?

The pascal code cuts when it hits a certain accuracy (passed in as an argument).

It was a FedEx driver for us. Eventually they moved on to another route or job, but the guy was throwing packages up over a fence onto the porch and kept breaking things. And DHL doesn't bother walking up to the porch, just leaves thin

Sometimes that stuff ends up in the cache too, and you can write a script to scrape the cache.

I would add pattern matching. I've found this really helpful for manipulating ASTs by matching multiple levels of the tree and pulling out values simultaneously.

Essentially a constraint that is true about the variables, which helps you reason about the code. A good example is: // Invariant: x[i-1] < target, x[j] >= target. In the golang implementation of binary search: https:/

I did this for a while (with a different algorithm for picking the password off of the table). It gets inconvenient when a site makes you change your password.

Or the time I typed `reboot` and my workstation didn't reboot, because that xterm was the department file server.

Perhaps they're calculating the optimal wait time to report to the customer from the expected wait time?

Yeah, last I checked, encrypted itunes backups would keep the "this device only" keychain data. Which would only work when restored to the same device - it needs the UID key from the secure enclave to decode. (I wrote code a few

Yeah, it's been way too long to remember (maybe a decade ago). Best guess is the click event was propagating up the dom and triggering something. These days, it looks like chrome generates a click even if you don't let up on the m

I did IT support for the CS department at university back in the 90's, and we had a professor who would email us once or twice a year asking us replace his monitor because it had gotten blurry. We'd go in, wipe the thick layer of

Yeah, I tend to prefer sunburst charts for visualizing disk space (I wish there were one for process size, too). I first saw this in kfilelight and on mac I ended up purchasing "DaisyDisk". The hierarchy is clearer and big outlie

It comes up when studying ancient greek, if I remember right it is used to describe which syllable gets the accent (ultimate, penultimate, or antepenultimate). I also recall a shareware Ultima clone for the Amiga back in late 80's or e

I think I'd prefer Lezer in a javascript-only setting. The results are compact and you don't have to deal with WASM. I've written a small tree-sitter grammar, with off-side rule even, and had a bunch of issues with the javas

I was tempted to get Comic Code, but I wanted to add a few characters (for Agda/Lean stuff), and I think the license precludes that. So I'm currently using Comic Mono / Comic Shanns with some tweaks. The cost is $30 for the &

The obscure part of xterm for me was the built in tektronix (vector) terminal emulation. I remember digging up a .dvi viewer that could display on tektronix by drawing a _lot_ of horizontal lines.

The original paper also does plain STLC first in section 2, and then adds dependent types in section 3. (And finally it adds the naturals in section 4.) In the Idris2 github repository, Guillaume Allais goes a step further and shows a well-

I should have included the caveat that my comment was from memory. I just did some brief research, and it seems that it was the case prior to some point in time between 2008 and 2019, but it is now hard-wired. It is discussed near the end

Also, I recall that the green light on the apple camera is controlled by the camera's firmware, making it more difficult to turn on without the light come on. (You'd need to overwrite the camera firmware.)

That would be yes on both points. I was unaware that deno needed a separate vscode extension and did not know that deno ran the typechecking itself. I may give it a try on some personal projects now that I know this.
