I use https://weloverss.com/ as my Google Reader alternative. TheOldReader is also nice. I prefer the first due to its ui not being bloated - only thing I miss is timestamps.

I can’t imagine anyone on HN not understanding this distinction; I can’t imagine any parliamentarian does understand it. A website can not “set a cookie” in the browser. The website can include a cookie that the user (agent) optionally can

Oh yeah of course you must do all those things! Assumed it was obvious that this was only about the steps leading up to giving the JWT token. Wrote it with one hand on my phone :-)

Implementing magic email sign in links is more straightforward and secure. You implement a login route which takes an email address. You symmetrically encrypt the email with a secret key from an environment variable, and send a link to &#x2

Wow! That means by just sticking to the until recently common view that humans have the property right to their own body, not the government, now makes me an anti-vaxxer as well.

Public school is much a place to dump kids so that both parents can work full time - this is how it’s utilised in reality. Otherwise there would be a cutthroat market for parents education spending - but almost everyone leaves the child in

Ten years ago when I tried it, it was the closest I as a non-coder ever come to a REPL. Thanks to Codecademy I got my start and learned I can do it. It’s been my career since. So for it’s audience (me ten years ago) it ain’t bad. Nothing wa

I remember the thread. Reading about it on HN back then I started programming stuff outside of game scripting. I had just finished high school. At a meetup it led to my first job. It’s been a good 10 year career and couldn’t have gone bette

If economic prosperity results in 2 kids per woman, would evolution not favour genes that make it unlike a family is economically prosperous? Having 6 kids with different baby mamas and being an absent father is evolutionary success

A transpiler would throw the types away before generating C code. It does not need to implement traits or any other rust features. Alternatively, LLVM byte code to C compiler would do the job, as rustc emits LLVM byte code afaik

Here’s my alternative explanation why the word “propagate” is used - there is no verb for awaiting cache TTL expiration. Some suggestions for verbs: • Cache flush wait • Cache out (sounds too much like “cash out”) • Soft whisper / cach

Let’s keep the level higher on HN. The ideas of freedom and universal rights isn’t unheard of in Europe - it originated here, and you’re certainly not speaking for all os us when you claim we accept the idea of “positive rights”.

It’d be nothing strange about a road company demanding seat belts on their roads. Currently that business is run by a state monopoly, and only then do seat belt mandates become an issue to discuss.

Absolutely not. I’m Swedish and lived in NO and DK during the last 2 years. Every time I went home and could live life like normal was godsend.
