Does he? “Here’s a phrase I use, and what it means” seems fine to me. There might be a bit of personal history why he chose a plumber, but I’m guessing he doesn’t remember.

I don’t have much experience with frontend frameworks / libraries, but I really dislike the way this article presents React as the silver bullet. Maybe it is factually accurate that Angular was the wrong choice for e-commerce (at the t

I think some demand for smart doorbells is to handle the “unknown visitor” problem: notify the homeowner that someone is at the door even when they’re away from home, and the ability to disguise that the house is unoccupied.

> your riced-out, LSP-enabled editor It’s my belief that “riced out” has negative racial overtones, and isn’t an appropriate adjective to be using. Wikipedia has some history on this related term: https://en.wikipedia.org/

I see that note, and the wording on it confuses me. My recollection, and some confirmation from this article [1], is that I was using handyPrint when connected to the mac via USB. At the time of the blog post I wrote, I was switching from u

I had a IPP capable printer that wasn’t showing up for AirPrint, and was able to solve that with a (relatively) simple static mDNS entry in my DNSMasq config, which I already had running on our router.

I don’t know how prevalent it is as a network architecture, but it seems like a bastion host / jump box would be a juicy target for this exploit, since it’d let the attacker jump upstream.

I’m on the same version of 1password, probably for similar reasons. In their iOS app, there’s an entry in Settings -> Security -> Allow Universal Clipboard which lets you opt-in to passwords through the clipboard. I suspect there’s so

Some of the “not working” cases may be due to the application you’re copying from setting the items as `localOnly`, ex: from a password manager. I don’t have an explanation for other failures. https://developer.apple.com/doc

Lots of love for BBEdit. I appreciate it as a long-lived, native Mac text editor. It hasn’t stagnated, instead incrementally improving for decades. Discovering the command line tools was a very good day for me. I really like the built-in (t

A thing I noticed about “guarantees” with tours similar to those, is they don’t refund money, they offer a future tour for free (non-transferable). So the guarantee is a signal that it’s likely to happen, but if I’m in the area on vacation,

I’m very surprised. I don’t fly often, but our experience trying to get a ride at SFO (in the last ~6 months) is that Lyft took a long time to match us with a driver (minutes, not 10’s of seconds), and I would have guessed it was fewer driv

Depends on the type of code you’re writing. If your `switch` is tightly coupled to the code that defines the cases and they’ll definitely be changed in lockstep, a default is more likely to be harmful. If your cases are defined externally,

I think there’s an interesting parallel with “supercookies” on the web, or the long-running battle on iOS to permanently, uniquely identify phones. Should the user be able to control their machine, and delete data that the app has written?
