And the sad/crazy thing is that AI assisted coding/refactoring does seem to stray substantially over the line of observation vs participation to the point that the experience is largely defined by "learning by watching"

What browser/platform? Flutter apps don't scroll at 30/60fps on my aging Mate 20 Pro, but that website is fine for me in Chrome.

I've been attracted to this - along with 2D cellular automata - a bit like a moth to a flame for some time. I find the little machine visualisations mesmerising, the heavily parenthesized Greek representation charming (they look like s

Idly comparing the silly little annotations, I notice the following state changes you've probably also stared at to the point of semantic satiation... Functional GUI: M_LIN8 G800x600 > 800x600 @00000+100+Dch4 Functional DOS: M

IIRC, the reason it needed to be a VM in the first place was because X (simplifying a bit) "started" at Sun, running on PowerPC boxen. (Here's another subthread mentioning the same thing - https://news.ycombinator.

That is crazy and awesome that the virtual POST card (brandnewsentence) modeled the real environment so closely. Feels obvious that it would line up - once proven, haha. I would have been yelling at an Arduino (and possibly a shift register

TIL, although this isn't a field I need perfect knowledge of. I wonder if people with such cards have inexplicable problems with certain payment systems? Edit: just saw the sibling comment, was viewing an old copy of the page

Huh. I once read drh note that no-one had ever bought any copies of TH3. I'm not sure what that does or doesn't say. But I would hope this is using TH3 in the development pipeline! If it's a direct port, the branch coverage s

Got to the point the EICAR string was described as "very, very random" and became abruptly disinterested fwiw. It's not random. It's a DOS .COM file encoded as printable 8-bit-clean ASCII. The whole point is that it&#x27

And IIRC including the quotes in a filename in a save dialog, líke "manifestv2.reg" (incl quotes), will save it with the extension you typed, so you won't end up with 'manifestv2.reg.txt'. So you skip a potentially

This reminds me uncannily of the anecdote from news media: 1. Say what you're about to say 2. Say it 3. Say what you just said I read it a while back so unfortunately I don't have a source.

Is Amazon on the "built a BeyondCorp clone" side, or the "Auth0 is the new VPN!" side?

Oh yikes. So the industry has basically just gone and reinvented the very premise Google built BeyondCorp to mitigate, starting back in 2009. IIUC the baseline premise was to move away from "login to the VPN and you're inside the

Huh, cool. What sector is the app in, what are some other interesting (non-identifying) aspects of the app that stand in contrast to revenue? Is that in ads, or does the app have in-app purchases et al?
