My issue with GHA and other "dead simple" systems is that my CI is complicated. Having a real programming language for stuff like "calculate what date it was a week ago" or "concatenate these three strings but only

It's up to you whether you have a shared workspace or not. My machines/pods are destroyed and recreated after each job, so I never had this issue.

I have never had an Apple ID on this Mac either, having restarted it successfully many times. And if I need to format it, it's not even my problem.

On my work Mac, I'm not even logged into iCloud so there's no Apple ID there.

Then this atlas is doing a really really good job, as the label "Taiwan" only appears after 1949, Crimea after 2014, Cyprus is divided after 1974, Georgia after 2008, and (state of) Palestine never appears at all. However sibling

I don't think they will, as this will leave a significant amount of population without ids. The fallback will always be there. Credit cards are a great example: they can't be faked, however while the cryptographers are sitting on

My argument is that “digital ids can’t be faked” is a bad argument, and if you rely on it to prove a point then it might be a weak proof. (Digital IDs indeed can’t be faked but usually they are a part of a process that can be easily bypasse

That's kinda theoretic discussion by now. As the whole COVID thing is behind us, we can probably look at all the money that were spent in the world to create vaccination certificates, sign them, create the distribution network, distrib

If they need to match with the info on paper it's not clear what the case for "digital id" is? If one needs to present "digital id + paper id" one can simply present the paper id as they do today.

by maratc 11mo ago
I don't know what "that" was, and again, I had both the vaccination and the digital certificate to prove it; the system in place would not accept the real documents, so I fed it with other documents that it did accept.

I was showing a real QR code -- that was issued to a person who wasn't me. As soon as that produced a big green checkmark on anyone's QR scanner, I was in.

I've read that Russian is similar but also treats anything ending in 1 (but not 11) as singular, similar to "16'777'221 plik wysłany".

Is it still "16'777'222 pliki wysłane"?

by maratc 11mo ago
I think it's more about inclination of the words that can't be replaced with a number. In English, it's easy: * 1 *file* sent But: * 2 *files* sent * 12 *files* sent * 21 *files* sent * 16,777,221 *
