This. Similarly how cypress does clicking with JavaScript which leads to weird bugs rather than with the debugger - similarly to old versions of selenium

At Microsoft at least at my site we are encouraged to contribute to open source and it even brings perks/recognition so really not sure about “most companies” here

You would think that but having used both I find writing Kusto/KQL much smoother, neater and faster and if I have to choose between writing a query in either one I'd pick KQL. I understand this is just an opinion but it's an

The big advantage of "from first" like we have in Kusto KQL (a database we use at Microsoft) is that it provides much better autocomplete (if I write the `from` it can easily autocomplete the projection). If you want an interestin

Worker threads aren't share-nothing, you can share data through SharedArrayBuffer which lets you share arbitrary binary data. If they were share nothing, we probably wouldn't have shipped them. Source: I'm Node.js core and on

Parsing JSON is tricky, you need to figure out the structure as you go. JavaScript implementations can reuse their JIT machinery to figure out the structure of parsed JSON (here's shapes if you're not familiar https://m

Got mine from a Tolkien name generator around 2000 to create an online alias (after reading and liking a few books) and used it since. Used to have inglor.com and still have the gmail. If you look hard enough you will find my contributions

We have the same alias :O Anyway, live close by. The train station at Malha was closed 2020 because of COVID because it was a scenic/tourist route. There was discussion of shutting it down permanently but it didn't happen. I used

This is great! I've been looking for this sort of thing today. It's very helpful and also nice to see some projects I maintain or contribute to in the dependencies list :) You might want to consider migrating from node-abort-contr

Are you sure you are not mixing up runtime impact with compiler speed? In Java generics are still part of the type system and are type checked which is a non trivial part of the compile time increase in generics typically.

I would be very interested in any research about code quality with relation to promotion packets. Ideally acamdemic. I am not sure where to look for it

They are a competitor with other clouds like AWS/Azure/GCP/DigitalOcean with a focus on JAMStack and modern workflows.

Probably, also I’m sure 99%+ of the code I author isn’t groundbreaking and someone did it before.

Coding, I actually had to forbid it today in a course I teach because it solves all the exercises :) (given unit tests with titles students needed to fill those tests in)

I've found that volunteer work is _harder_ in terms of getting the human aspect right. New volunteers sometimes expect the red-carpet treatment as someone volunteering their (pretty expensive presumably!) time and as someone accomplish

It's interesting to note that conceptually stuff like pHash (which is very useful) is similar to dimensionality reduction as we see it in machine-learning/data-science scenarios.

That's a good point and I should have been clearer. I might be off (and probably am) but if I remember correctly Redis persistence is more for disaster recovery - you can create snapshots and recover them or replay a log file. That&#x2

It speaks Redis so ideally it can replace Redis in cases where persistence is required. There are already several community solutions for Redis persistence - this one provides different guarantees. The name implies the goal is to make it ea

Often reads of data already committed only need to hit one node but writes need to wait for a majority so they need to wait for multiple nodes to receive and acknowledge the write. I haven't checked the code though so I might be off.

IMO this comment takes a very cynical and US centric view of things. I've found this story was well written and pretty inspiring. Just because people are privileged doesn't mean they don't struggle or that their struggles can

The US and Israeli governments approve the sales according to news articles I've found: so one thing preventing China from using Pegasus is the US government not green-lighting it. Additionally: you can count on China already having co

My theory is that NSO is paying for this PR blitz since companies like NSO need physical sales and now that international travel is back they need a lot of articles that talk about how powerful/dangerous the NSO hacking tools are. Basi

by inglor 5y ago
The common way to do this in on-prem deployments is to hard-limit the user to a small amount of hacks (let's say 10). The more a tool like Pegasus is used the more it's exposed and the bigger the risk companies like Verint (or NSO

I agree and I think it's a regulatory problem. I think companies like NSO should be forced to go to a middleman and be regulated a lot more strictly. This is exactly the point I was trying to make. (BTW: Colt sell weapons to dictator a
