I’ll fund a startup that uses web push to tell me when chicken tender subs are on sale, though.

It’s just calling APIs on the actual monitor, right? Or a service that listens to the monitor? Feels like low risk unless the watch gets out of sync (but easy enough to change the code to stop the watch from showing old data if that happens

As far as I can tell, they didn’t do this price increase on the business/enterprise SKUs at all. Copilot is still an add on for any of the integration with Office. (Something the UI reminds you of if you’re on a business plan without i

Was the external DOGE organization, as previously described, supposed to have a digital modernization component? It seemed like more of a project to ‘cut expenses’, like an external GAO. The silly part of me wants to say they picked USDS be

I would doubt they made a build of the OS without webkit, or else you’d have a OS without captive portal or eShop support. Feels annoying.

There’s a shebang now. as of PEP 722 you can declare dependencies in a comment at the top of a single file script that a package manager can choose to read and resolve. uv has support for it: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/g

As you say, it has gotten a lot easier, and nyc is the easiest out of the systems I've used recently. You tap your phone, any credit card or a card you get with cash (replacement for metrocard), and the gate opens while they take your

Can they square “we know how to build AGI” with “a bunch of our executive team has left in the past 12 months when they clearly knew what he was talking about”? Why would you leave if AGI was just around the corner? (Which is to say, it isn

Sort of. "Locked in" is a strong word, considering Redis will run on AWS just fine, either by buying their product or spinning up a couple EC2s and `docker run redis` (which is allowed under the license since you aren't resel

Yes: https://support.apple.com/en-sg/guide/iphone/iph95baac91f/io... Works fine. I don't know if you can format drives, but you can definitely read and write to external disks and network shares.

I need to send it to the author, but ASP.NET Core’s JSON configuration parser also does json + comments by default. Confuses the hell out of my colleagues and VSCode when I do it though :D https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us&#

I’ve been on machines in the last few years that didn’t have screen either. Maybe it was a minimal install or something, but I specifically remember having to install it to get some long running stuff going. (Thinking it was Ubuntu server,

That random “J” at the end of the messages brings me back to mail circa 2010. As I recall, iOS also didn’t render Outlook’s smileys right, leaving a bunch of Js in mail from my Mom. (For the ones who ‘missed’ it: https://devblogs

I suppose allowing developers targeting x86_64 Linux to still use Macs and the power efficiency of ARM CPUs, since I don’t think (maybe wrong) that ARM Windows machines support emulation inside WSL. But that’s more feature parity with x86 W

A guy did this for the DC Metro: https://www.reddit.com/r/washingtondc/comments/15mbos4/i_map... It’s a PDF, so not automated, but still gave me some good ideas.

My dad's side of the family is indo-guyanese (and he was specifically in tech for his whole career). It's interesting, they've (and I, to a lesser extent) reported something similar, where every once in a great while people f

Except for the sky high complexity cost, you could expose a scripting api that could connect to the database and inspect things that didn't use rust. I don't know if that's a good idea, but for much of what I personally use

As of one of the later releases of Windows 10, "curl.exe" is in System32 (or somewhere else on PATH), but if you type "curl" in a powershell you get the alias. You need to type "curl.exe" to get the binary. Gue

Maybe, but if you really don’t want to carry stuff around then it’s optimal to just type the code in (…which is why it makes zero sense that the keypads suck. except that they were being cheap.)

The DC metro isn’t great? Blasphemy! You can get most of the interesting places (including Union Station and both airports) without a car. (unless you’re in one of the dead zones, I suppose. No metro in Georgetown.)

My apartment recently moved over to “smart locks” and I immediately noped out (app is slow), choosing to memorize the codes instead. This was clearly an afterthought since about 40% of the time touches are missed when using the keypads. Why

Another example: There’s a page in the iOS settings where you can remove people from your family group and change your password (or do other things you might do if someone was after you). It has a “quick exit” button that kicks you back to
