If you are wondering (as I did) how they can know what is your DNS resolver, they simply makes the webpage load some JS from a random host, like " https://853af2kklyt-dda385.test.nextdns.io/" . Of course, as this ho

If you don't see web app replacing Blender, give a try to OnShape. I was so surprised by it. It is slower than comparable desktop app, but it is usable for real world projects.

This is great and the technical implementation (browsing large image) is good. But I must be getting old, I didn't see the "See the photograph" button at first, I read the article, came back here to look for a link, realized

I have no real advice. But I want to wish you good luck. And let you know that at my modest level, I will always advocate for good accessibility in software and hardware.

I really like Elm. I don't use it now for some of the reasons pointed in the article but I like the lessons it taught me. It shows how you can do a lot of things with functional/reactive programming. Building an app in Elm can be

What I really hate about touchscreen, and love with analog input, is the "speed control" of rotary dials. For example, if you want to change the air speed of your ventilation system down to zero from max, a quick rotation of your

I hope we are not on an exponential curve with this too. Covid reminded us how exponential are surprising.

I also have 2 db (KeepassXC), I have my low security db (like games, online stores, forums...) and my high security db (like AWS credentials...), the second one requires a hardware key for unlocking. But some websites (like some games) in t

While this is nice in theory, it lacks the following I use: usernames, TOTP, credit cards, attachments (like scanned 2FA number grid some banks use), history, autofill. And how does changing master password works?

I've been interested into rsync.net. How does it work if I want my remote ZFS dataset to be encrypted without leaving the key on the remote server?

What advantages does it have over zrep?

Yeah, it's not perfect, and I suspect we don't see colors the same way (monitor not calibrated the same way, and even our vision might be different), but it is "good enough" to avoid common pitfalls like having white tex

Yes, now I see what you mean. Yeah HSLuv is not good for that. The SO answer @mark-r pointed gives a good information. Gradients are complicated beasts, and are often rendered wrong, even by popular softwares like browsers.

by kuon 7y ago
By interpolating, you mean like given two colors, you want to generate the intermediate gradient colors, like on this article[1]? If that's the case, I don't see why interpolating two saturated colors would provide a shade of gray

This is great. I have to admit I usually "bake" my colors when using JS so I have not been hit by the performances, but if it can be done in a performent way, it can open new applications in the browser.

I worked with C for nearly 20 years, and it is everything but simple. It is complicated, not "low level" as many thinks, full of weird edge cases, compilers will happily compile non standard code, fragile (hard to refactor), full

I thought about the comparison bit, and I wanted to go against it. Ordered, your snippet look like the alphabet with a few missing letters, and isn't searchable on google or anything. I really wanted the alphabet to stand out. I don&#x

I published the article a bit in a hurry before going to bed and I managed to put the wrong alphabet in the article. I am sorry, and I updated it.

Oh, yes my bad, I will correct the article. I did use G and 6 in the end, I copy pasted one of the other candidate. NL was a try. Sorry about that.

My take is not to split priority and severity, but priority and tags. For example P0 typo,UI and P2 crash,UI ...the crash might be P2 if if's not severe for the product itself, as in the example, if it is on bio or whatever page. Tags&

A few companies do charge fees on the end user now. I did a refund on a plane ticket within the 24h grace period (basically refunded no question asked) but I had to pay the credit cards fee anyway. I don't do refund often, but it might
