I appreciate it for the allegory I find in it. It's kind of like "Something's up, so shall we commence a forensic analysis of this system and then reverse engineer it?" and then someone sensible says "Maybe start by

Not sure what point you're trying to make. I think it'd be a great idea to build nuclear in Texas.
663.
by ibejoeb 3y ago
Certainly. It's an odd dynamic because the same people who want to eliminate fossils also hate nuclear. The trending political position is energy austerity, while at the same time electrifying everything. But that's just not going

Ah, I see. I thought it would be possible to dynamically set a secret which would effectively be a database uri. But upon further investigation, it does indeed need a redeploy. I suppose you could make something to write the bindings to the

Not really sure how you distinguish between runtime and something else. It seems to me that you could provision a "shard" as simply as executing in a worker: wrangler d1 create customer28 --experimental-backend wrangler

I'm not aware of any good tools for web extension auditing.

I make a lot of extensions, and I still don't know how the screening happens in the various stores. It's not working well, whatever it is. Part of the solution ought to require a submission in source format for easier screening, e

It's not really better. There was a malware instagram downloader in the extension repo for months. It might even still be there. Extensions are fraught with this kind of stuff, and without some kind of automated screening, it's al

Seriously. Well, I guess their customer roster isn't all that impressive. Sounds like they're willing to burn them.

What am I missing? The rust board, or whatever entity, booked a keynote and then unceremoniously canceled it, right? Poor diplomacy, but why is there so much chiming on and so many allusions of various -isms?

Generally, at it is now, they're unreliable and unpredictable, and we lack adequate storage capabilities to mitigate those things. It's not unreasonable to look to shifting to those technologies, but the course were on now of shut

Burning rep for wealth is kinda an SV trope, though, right? It's "fuck you money."

Are adjustable-rate mortgages common in Germany?

by ibejoeb 3y ago
Right. And, in my opinion, we get exactly the bad UI described because it became common to conflate "modal" with "overlay." That's the way the UI kits implement it, and as the author states, it makes people reach fo

by ibejoeb 3y ago
I know, and you're right that it has lost its definition. I'm making a case that that is what has driven the very common poor use of, as in the article here, modal windows. If implementers really, thoughtfully considered the probl

I'm not arguing with accepted terminology. I'm explaining the design intent and why it is called what it is called. The reason why the article exists is because there are so many cases where the element is inappropriate. But, as t

I'm willing to hear your argument. I could have done without you telling me that maybe I'm just out of the loop, because there's a point to be made here. But let me entertain the notion. What is a modal?
679.
by ibejoeb 3y ago
It seems like a lot of people don't really consider what it really means to be "modal," and when it comes up, I describe it something like this: A modal is not, in itself, an overaly, window, frame, etc. Generally, it really

by ibejoeb 3y ago
>Why would the user want to bookmark or share a "modal" I think you and the author are making the same argument. I'm sure you've encountered one of those everything-is-a-modal apps and thought "I sure wish I coul

It seems more like, if you do manage to internalize some of the language, that you might be able to augment your thinking language rather than replace it. For the things that are not readily expressible in your native language, Ithkuil coul

Any thoughts on MoCA? I've got gigabit fttp and I need two APs for coverage. Place is already wired with coax, so hoping to utilize that.

I don't think it has anything to do with function workloads specifically. Vercel prices total bandwidth at $40/100GB over 1TB.
