This has always been the problem with smart contracts. They are infact dumb contacts. To program one you need to think about all the edge cases. The programmers here likely did want >0 here. The possibility that the thing feeding price d

All my chat networks I care about have migrated to Libera or Matrix. And I agree freenode is circling the drain. I was also banned and Klined, but I am not sure this was a free node action... I was immediately able to reconnect to a differe

"no reasonable person would possibly believe these statements as true." That statement from the courts has allowed all sorts of lying in marketing.

I'm still think that OpenPGP is the best solution for the first two. But the two tools at the top have the same problems as pgp. How do you trust some key material. The WoT is a complete failure, but modern solutions like WKD are amazi

USB-C cables can have all sorts of logic embedded in the cable, including inline resistors to signal capabilities. However, when it comes to power delivery. For both old style USB and newer USB-C, the thickness of the copper matters for how

First, your evidence of another incident of a government strong arming a plane to land and capture someone is not evidence that either are not an abuse of power. But even if we take as such, there are some major differences. 1. This was a j

I was fairly sure that firefox is using your OS keyring. IE, it is encrypted at rest. You logging into your computer unlocks your keyring, which unlocks the secret your browser uses to encrypt things like passwords.... However looking at my

I am a huge fan of OpenPGP, but the Web of Trust is never going mainstream. However, I do think things like OpenPGP-CA are going to make things _a lot_ easier for everyone. And I really hope that it catches on: https://openpgp-ca

All the tool does is make that easier. It does exactly that.

I'll also add the the federal US government makes extensive use of personal TLS certificates, and they store the private key material on a smartcard embedded inside your ID. Your cert is used from everything from signing and decrypting

While you're 100% correct, some organizations use S/MIME to send signed and encrypted emails with their TLS x.509 certs signed by their companies TLS CA. But you can also get your X.509 cert signed by a public CA and then anyone o

The embedded package repository is actually a major con IMHO. Making backwards incompatible changes is easy inside your monorepo, but if you a user building software it means that your code now depends on specific guix reversions as well as

I disagree. As a user, I have no real say. What ever the miners and exchanges decide if what I must use. And for the vast majority of users just don't care about which fork should be considered the true path. As a user, I have about as

It was a lot to digest, but it was also all one continuous thought. If it was broken up, I don't think it would have been nearly as good. And I don't think I would have been able to keep all the context to understand smaller chunk

The bigger difference is that the play store does not mandate using Google as the payment processor for transactions and subscriptions. Spotify would have no reason to look for an alternative app distribution mechanism on Android.

You can't have it both ways... Google doesn't protect scammers and actively goes after them. But if they flag _you_ incorrectly then your entire legitimate business may be defunct if you have your domains there as well. If you use

There is no ability to run a random page though that tool. It can only look at the root index page of the domain. And this mostly makes sense. It means they can cache results more easily, there is no way the tool could return so quickly unl

This is looks like a great tool! A few notes. The default sort is price per vCPU, but all the ones that slow up initially are actually fractions of a CPU. Granted, getting the actually fraction is not made easy by the vendors. Some provider

Ah, there is no method. With S3 you can create file lifecycles that will move them to cheaper storage and eventually delete them. You could potentially create two buckets. One for throw away pipeline builds, and another for when things grad

That is a gross oversimplification. An javascript front end can have thousands of dependencies, and the nix build environment does not have network access unless it's computing a fixed output. To do that manually would be a nightmare,
