Whilst I like getting more control of my hardware, I really prefer if I can contain arbitrary software - sandbox it and compartmentalise it. If arbitrary processes can own your whole system, is anyone truly an owner?

Yes.

With Flock, we can and absolutely should throw the baby out with the bathwater. Good riddance for that demonic little pest.

I work with people who actively chose to go to conference in Berlin instead of the UK due to visa issues. The passport control is a real issue one cannot just handwave away.

It is a lot harder to travel into England from outside of the United Kingdom than it is to travel from England to Scotland or Wales. For one, I do not need a passport to get on a train to Scotland. Nor do I need a visa.

Ye, and how do you get source code from devs into that silo?

by eptcyka 2mo ago
Storing the secret on a hardware token will most certainly help with not committing into source control.

Maybe not now, but what about 10 years down the line?

I love how during prototyping, the compiler will tell me off for having an unused variable and fail to compile. I totally love the idea of crashing when writing on a closed channel.

Systemd is not 1 giant thing that does 100000 things - it is a collection or 10000 services doing 10000 things, integrating amongst themselves where practical. You need not use networkd, logind, resolved or any other one piece of the system

It gives you a sense of control, for one. I could repurpose existing software to do most of the things I program myself on my own time. Ikea is way cheaper than most things you can make yourself, but you end up planning around commodity fur

There is a dollar amount I am willing to pay to elude suffering- and there is an amount I will not. Try sitting on a floor for weeks and you will see the dollar amount you want to pay for a couch. And try booking a long haul flight- see wha

Do you want this supermodel to cause harm whilst finding these vulnerabilities?

Futures would be less of a problem if async was implemented as effect handling instead of coloring functions - I am truly miffed about e.g. not being to use `or_insert_with` with a fallible async function. That and build sandboxing are my 2

Not only that, the charger thing also implies charging it weekly if not more often. I got a pebble watch because I can wear it for 2 weeks without charging. Would hate to have to charge a ring.

One might argue that these people will not understand the code they write if they use LLMs. I would counter that with my observation that plenty didn’t understand the code they wrote before LLMs too.

You can run it on an encrypted volume on a VPS. Technically, it is also possible to use confidential VMs, but I have not at all kept up with those developments these days. Confidential here means that the SoC/CPU provides the ability f

Large file uploads are non-resumable. That is, if you have any videos at a decent bitrate and resolution, you need to be able to upload the whole file in a single session. iOS doesn't make this easy to do via background uploads. I uplo

And having someone less experienced can also bring perspectives and criticism to assumptions that can and sometimes should be challenged.
