Git actually does ship with parsers for different programming languages, I believe, because when you do a diff, it captions the changed lines with the function call they're from, etc. That said I've also used third-party "sem

Costco is unique in that they require you to show a card for entry. Department stores commonly have more than one entrance on different sides of the building. Not every store models itself after a department store layout, though. I'll

The same often happened when I travelled by train in Ontario (Canada) where the trains shared the line with freight service, and so sometimes a train was poorly timed such that it always had to wait for freight to clear first. In those case

My understanding is that outside of names or ways of describing yourself, others and actions, in other languages you’d tend to disassociate the gender of a word from the word’s usage. As in, a word is not problematic because it has a mascul

by lstamour 6y ago
It has to be taken with context, partially. “Craftsman” is gendered and therefore its usage is sometimes problematic. “Headmaster” also. The word “mastery” is not at fault, but “master” to denote male gender or indeed relationships, that’s

Try listening to Pivot podcast, might change your mind? I’d suggest it’s just a journalistic style of trying to ask the uncomfortable questions. Walt was often seen as maybe too deferential, particularly later on as books and other things e

I had connectivity issues on mine. One or the other would stubbornly not go into NC mode, or you’d see iOS say “Noise Cancelling” but it would actually be transparency mode, and had not fully shifted. Haven’t had too many issues since I had

This is why FIDO2 is considered a strong alternative to SSO, and, in some cases, persistent session cookies. That said, the likelihood of a site getting compromised is a lot higher than the odds of, say, Google getting compromised. And Goog

That’s not true of Apple which means it’s not true of all SSO. Sometimes users are offered a choice of claims. It’s allowed, just rarely implemented.

What wasn’t commodified to begin with about the PC industry? Or later, with the smartphone industry? There’s Apple and then there’s the commodity alternative with more market share globally etc. To me this is Apple trying to stay ahead of A

Apps like Slack solve this by having a dedicated “Threads” channel where you can see new messages in threads you’ve participated in. There’s also the concept of an “Activity” view where you can see recent activity in a channel, if I recall

I'm thinking I probably need more organization than simple note-taking. I tried daily journals but it's hard to find stuff later unless you happen to land on the perfect cross-linking or search system, or somehow integrate with a

It’s not clear to me how fingerprinting helps... eventually to defeat such protections, a nation state could develop virtual machines or botnets to trick any script into seeing their posts as unique. The newest trick is to amplify posts wri

I might have lost count but I think they reimplemented the file storage twice in local Docker installs and twice in Kubernetes... it’s at a point now where if you trust cloud network storage performance guarantees, you can trust Postgres wi

I agree, but it sounds like we’re trying to get the web browser to simplify and implement OAuth2 and OpenID Connect via WebAuthn ... If we already have OpenID Connect, the only advantage to end users under that scenario is a login-with-Appl

by lstamour 6y ago
WebAuthn is generally about device authentication with credentials that can’t leave the device, though that could change depending on where and how the hardware gets/stores it’s tokens. Or if you rely on a third-party, like Apple, to s

Those would be the special one-of-a-kind bytes that we log to ensure no two people get the same bytes twice. Bonus: the logs are numbered, so we can validate those bytes. Downside: we’ll have to ask for a monthly donation to cover storing t

Generally speaking the same is true of “gifts”, though. You don’t have to report a gift as income if it’s reasonable, but drawing that line is where things get... complicated. Then you have to call in specialists like tax lawyers, etc.

Counter point: Georgetown ON has great internet, Halton Hills, not so much. And it’s a 10 minute drive from Mississauga... So it’s easy on a rural road even near a big city to have very, very few options if the cable company didn’t bother t

Not just banned exactly. As I follow it, APIs used to create network plugins were restricted to the point where it wasn’t clear how Apple wanted such apps to work. Or rather, it was clear Apple felt their built-in tools would be enough. For

You should always register more than one, and services should accept or require more than one, ideally. Google Advanced Protection shows how it could be done for extra security-conscious users though it does not, itself, use FIDO2 yet, I be

This is called FIDO2 and can be used for passwordless authentication as well as two-factor. It’s compatible with Windows Hello or Touch ID (in Chrome, not Safari), and there are a number of dedicated USB tokens available if you want a secon

There are a few implementations of this kind of filter - https://github.com/search?q=have-I-been-bloomed lists four I found. I haven’t seen any usages yet in open source code on Github though. Most seem to use the web API:

Well, leaving aside the React vs Web Components debate, the only issue is that some folks add technologies like React but forget to remove the old ones as they go. They half-finish the job. Then they do that up to 5 times more... My advice

Not every job needs this, but when your company has a lot of code, it helps as a newcomer to spend time writing documentation. Those who “level up” in this skill can write documentation everyone understands, not just other programmers. Fo

That does sound interesting, but the link says it streams 6:30-7am. (I presume that’s a local time for my time zone?) Any chance it will show up as a podcast or on YouTube, or available to watch at another time?

I just figured they rebranded Hangouts or Google+ myself... The number of attempts at social that Google has made over the years is somewhat mind boggling...
