Html form validation is great. There's just one gigantic catch: It doesn't work in Firefox for Android. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1510450

Great news! I'm fiddling way too much with a Surface Go 2, and a translation layer for Android is perfect when all you have is a touchscreen, very little ram, an incredibly slow eMMC, and a battery that'll last 8 hours if you&#x27

It's a good point, especially because different return types is well supported in TS. I made the same in plpgsql recently and opted for returning an implicit union of UserSession | Error, by returning UserSession in the signature and r

> Last but not least, cost. I’ll just come out and say it: IMHO, what most vendors charge for being IdP is outrageous. Charging by MAU in an IdP? Really? We all know that the marginal cost for me to have a user in your system is essentia

This is extremely cool. Well done! If I was able to use this with node-postgres without schema management, but views and plpgsql, I'd finally have what I always wanted for pg <-> ts. I think this library is going to set a new sta

I don't know if RxJS has run out of fashion, but that would give you observable js using map/filter/reduce etc.

Wouldn't the query for your example just be data.filter(d => d.friends.includes("John")).map(d => ({name: d.name+" "+d.lastName})) Maybe I'm missing the bigger picture, but that doesn't seem so bad

You could consider zram and get 50%+ more ram by compressing it. I use it on a 4gb ram surface go 2 and it works wonders. Not even noticing it in games like Divinity: Original Sin that requires at least 4gb.

It would work great if NVIDIA, AMD and Intel made high end consumer GPU's that could be shared between host and guest. So far we can only share Intel iGPU's - at least on paper, because I haven't managed to make it work. ...

Wouldn't rely on SB 100% but I think Shim + UKI is Good Enough for most consumers...

Lots of hate on Microsoft for doing this, but SBAT was made exactly for this reason: To deny boot loaders with known vulnerabilities to boot an operating system that might not be the one you think. Might as well disable secure boot if that&

Yes, TPM is just one way to access your disk. The only reason to use it is in my opinion to not have to enter a super long password on every boot. An extra key if your mobo fails is the way to go. Or if you can't boot after an update,

Not that I would want to dual boot on my 64 gb surface go 2, but if I did, I'd need a bootloader with a menu, because there isn't one in the bios.

Has it had an impact on your productivity? Are developers shipping faster, same pace as before or slower? Would be super interesting to know if legal has increased productivity through bureaucracy, or how much a decrease in say 20% is costi

Out of curiosity, why did you make the switch? Licensing?

Yes, and usually you can make rules that prevent databases from being deleted again from IaC.

Just stopped working on a basic multiplayer quiz, because the project got me a bit too absorbed. The frontend is in TypeScript (swc compiler) using web components and no libs. Experience has been good so far. The quiz is specified in xml th

Spot on. This is what Durable Functions does on Azure and it's brilliant for implementing complicated business processes and handling multiple events in one flow, in a resilient way where the logic is easy to follow. One catch is that

Sounds like a lot of Marc Cherry's tv shows (Desperate Housewives, Devious Maids, Why Women Kill). That kind of stuff is excellent tv! Too bad it's not big business in the west.

I think a lot of issues are never reported because of stuff like this. We hear about white hat hackers getting sued all the time. And in the end it'll hurt us all because crooks don't care, and will use these found-but-undisclosed

I think you're right, but I'm mostly interested in the cloud offerings. It's super hard to convince anyone to roll your own unikernel infrastructure

Can't use any of that, because they all use complex.h (not supported by my compiler) and I have an interleaved array of complex numbers where 0 = real, 1 = imag, 2 = real, 3 = imag etc. Dear ProbablyRealPersonGPT, please provide the ne

Yes, Google isn't so good nowadays, or my problems have become sufficiently advanced to not be a quick search away. What might save us from ChatGPT enshittification are the freely available LLM's. Probably won't be long befor

ChatGPT has been a blessing for learning C. How do you calculate the conjugate for a complex double when the compiler doesn't support complex numbers? ChatGPT will give you the correct answer together with math examples. One example ou

Yes please! Still waiting for unikernels to actually become a thing. Looks so promising, but Unikraft has yet to launch their cloud offering and NanoVM is 7$ per unikernel, which, compared to an always on shared Hetzner vCPU for ~4$ (knowin

Processing time is insanely fast according to the footer. But the time it takes to transfer the document to Denmark is 500 - 1000ms. Seems like a CDN is better than performant code in this case... Still an impressive feat.
