Not radical enough. It should be an opt-in rather opt-out. A public website should verify that every person on the photo consented to being publicly displayed. Otherwise their faces should be pixelated. I can certainly see things going that

In case of web apps/sites you can easily find truly dead code by inserting instrumentation/reporting in all the old workarounds and collecting it over some reasonable period of time.

Rails, which GitLab is based on, uses suffixes to select content renderer (such as .html, .json - apparently in case sensitive manner), also I think it will serve underlying files in some cases (e.g. the example of dashboard.html) given els

I'd say safety implies safety from incompetent developers. Similar to the use of the word in memory safety.

As the famous saying goes, never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by incompetence. This is Google we are talking about, they are infamous for their lack of strategic focus and disorganization.

That's probably the best once can do other than reverse engineering the protocol used by Google Photos Android app - as that app seems to be able to download files with full exif, unlike official API. Unfortunately, as mentioned, multi

It's amazing it does much better job matching actual native style than WPF and Swing ever did.

It's annoying for sure but a smart editor could simply offer you all possible columns in the current context, moving the more likely candidates to the front (as determined through some sort of machine learning - which is in fact what m

Pity that once uploaded there's no way to get your data back from Google. API scrambles EXIF location metatada while Takeout, besides being pain to use on an ongoing basis, fails if you store too many files.

Neither is a generic user space vfs API. They are only tailored to some narrow use cases with bunch of limitations. Last time I checked projfs can't stream files from memory while cloudfs can't stream directories from memory (i.e.

Unless something drastically changed in Scala 3, there is nothing to protect you from null in Scala. In fact even Java is effectively safer thanks to all the null checking done by IntelliJ

It says that you can implement your own scheduler for virtual threads so presumably you can make one that schedules back to UI loop.

Sorry, I replied to the wrong thread. The example use of Open Source in that NT thread above is actually rather convincing. Seems like it existed for a while just wasn't in common use. Indeed '98 as the inception date seems a bit

To me it reads more like (open (source code)) which feels very distinct from ((open source) code).

Does it work with desktops with two PCIe GPUs or is it only for laptops? Do I need HDMI dummy plug in "Windows" card?

Think at hypervisor level. Most VM solutions support some form of memory deduplication. VM level cloning wouldn't be too far from that model IMO.

It's basically rebranded Xamarin Forms. Outside of bundled Windows apps, Microsoft is going all into web technologies for consumer apps now. Even within bundled Windows apps usage of .net is almost nonexistent. Built in OneDrive client

If you have enough permissions to intercept keystrokes in X via network monitoring then most likely you have enough permissions to intercept keystrokes in wayland e.g. by ptrace. You're not using TCP for local X, it's all Unix dom

X11 is also just a protocol and you can implement it securely and expose access control through extensions. In fact it already exists (XACE) just nobody is using it.

Worth noting is that some countries such as Poland switched away from this system 2 decades ago and experienced exactly all the issues attributed here to 6 grade elementary schools. They have since switched back to 8 grade elementary school
