That's the fun part. It's just HTML attributes, so you can test them without a full browser and JS engine. Just parse the HTML. Tests are super fast and never flaky.

I pay $480/mo for a CA-based HOA and receive very few services. A large chunk of that money goes toward insurance and maintenance. You start seeing real services (pool, etc.) at $1500+/mo.

I have the Shure MV7, and I've been extremely impressed with it over USB. Highly recommend it as an entry point to (semi-)professional audio equipment.

Avoiding anti-trust investigations and massive DMA fines sounds mighty good for their business to me.

I also have no autocomplete. I don't want the distractions/popups when writing code and getting into deep focus. When I want to autocomplete a long name, I trigger it by hand using Ctrl+p.

I turned it off as an experiment ~10 years ago and haven't needed it since. Like the author, it was jarring at first, but then I grew to prefer it. I still highlight trailing spaces in bright red, but otherwise it's (nearly) white

This is likely my last iPhone. Apple’s behavior in opposing their own customers is unacceptable. I’ll switch to a Pixel running GrapheneOS, where I can run “real Firefox” and any other software I choose.

Not GP, but I also have a Framework 13 AMD and a MacBook Pro M2 for work. The battery life of the Framework is worse, but I still easily get 9+ hours with it. To me that’s plenty, so battery isn’t even something I think about anymore.

Clearly the recent 1.8B Euro fine the EU levied against Apple didn't send a message. Perhaps the EU needs to ratchet it up by an order of magnitude.

It isn’t, sadly, but the logic is straightforward. Have a set of IPs you target, iterate with your deploy script targeting each, check health before continuing. If anything doesn’t work (e.g. health check fails), stop the deploy to debug. T

I ran such a system in prod over 7 years with >5-9s uptime, multiple deploys per day, and millions of users interacting with it. Our deploy scripts were ~10 line shell scripts, and any more complex logic (e.g. batching, parallelization,

You can achieve this without k8s, though. If your goal is, "I want zero-downtime deploys," that alone is not sufficient reason to reach for something as massively complex as k8s. Set up a reverse proxy and do blue-green deploys be

Note that the brand new KDE Plasma6 solved fractional scaling on Wayland.

I have a Framework 13 AMD. Everything works great on Linux (even the fingerprint reader)—-I’m extremely happy with it. The keyboard is good, the speakers are good (with EasyEffects), the screen has a perfect 3:2 ratio, the battery is great,

Quality score should factor in the number of dependencies.

I installed plasma6 on my Framework 13 running NixOS this morning, and it was the first time in my life that not only did fractional scaling work out-of-the-box, but it automatically picked the appropriate scale! Love when the little things

I just installed plasma6 on nixos (using Wayland) and it automatically picked an appropriate fractional scaling for my resolution (150%), and everything works and feels great. No configuration needed.

I think the parent is simply pointing out that “Typescript’s types are not sound.” That is, the types at runtime may not be what you assumed at compile-time. This happens very often at API boundaries because fetch returns `any`. Many langua

Unless you’re testing if something is null or undefined, in which case a single “x != null” handles it.

I didn’t realize they supported full conversations with my choice of model. They need to advertise this better! I just upgraded to ultimate and can cancel my ChatGPT subscription. Love that I can give more support to Kagi _and save money_ V

I signed up, and Mozilla warns it takes 7-14 days for data on most of these sites to be removed. They must need to do a lot of things by hand. This would also explain why you get 1 scan per month.

Data warehouse use-cases in Postgres for me generally rely on calculating counts/stats over time, and estimates are sufficient. I really like HyperLogLog for this use-case—fast performance, low storage use, and there’s a great Postgres

I’ve hired several friends as employees. It works fine if both of you are able to separate work from friendship. Admittedly not everyone can do this, but it worked out in my situation.

I like the idea. I’m learning European Portuguese, so I added a video but unfortunately got an error that there were no subtitles. The subtitles for the video in question are auto-generated, so maybe that’s the reason? Would be great if I c

I think it’s fair to say that knowing what allocates in Go requires in-depth knowledge of its internals, well beyond the `defer` example. Every possible allocation is not obvious to the typical Go programmer. It is obvious in Zig.

The optimal architecture for a 1-user self-hosted project is very different than something built to serve 100k people, which is very different from a company serving 10M, and again for 5B. Do you shard and partition the DB? Do you introduce
