In the final example there is a create effect and an unsafe create effect: could these be collapsed such that something checks for any argument that makes the call unsafe and defer to the unsafe version but otherwise chooses the safe versio

Not sure about the most common, but I used it to inspect some requests that an app was making so I could find the needed parameters to get the data from the App’s backend servers in a tool I was developing. I was able to proxy the app’s con

Nassim Taleb talks about a similar phenomenon in “Skin in the Game.” His proposition is that there are cases where a minority’s needs or values might be small relatively speaking but the cost of not accommodating them is more than that of n

One thing I was curious about is how the PNG would compare after running it through an optimizer since that would be a more fair comparison since the H.264 encoding does optimize. Even so, I bet the H.264 would fare well. I did an experimen

I think the first_true optio is great and I highly recommend more-itertools, but if you’re looking for a built in alternative I usually use next((I for I in iter if is_thing(I)), default) It’s slightly more work than any but is pret

Check out more-itertools which has things like take, tail and a bunch of other nice functions for working with iterators if you haven’t. Would allow you to do something like for el in take(100, iter): print(el) Plus there’s a bu

Didn’t see details of the actual method other than it is based on fast Fourier transforms. Would be cool to see a breakdown like they did for the carrying and Karatsuba methods or better yet some code.

I felt a little cheated when they launched the nini after the 2020 SE. I’m still using my 2020 SE and will probably update in the next year but I’m not sure whether I’ll go for the 2022 SE or the mini. The cost of the SE and the Touch ID ar

Don’t they already offer Xcode build as a service? That presumably is using Mac servers so it wouldn’t be totally out of the blue to have more Mac SaaS.

I’ve been using Celery and it has been working okay for our needs but it is not very friendly to make changes depending on how you write tasks. I feel okay when a task is a wrapper around some other functions that you can just run and test

So does optimization and efficiency. Apple can add this in at some point and say they reduced App sizes by X% across the entire App Store at WWDC and get lots of oohs and aahs.

I got the 65” last year: took some adjustment to get the sound to be okay as the defaults were pretty bad. Otherwise it’s decent.

What specifically bothers you about functools partial? I think the decorator is nice in certain ways. However, then you have to decorate your code and guess where you’re going toy need the partials or create wrappers just to add the decorat

This is fantastic! One question I have is how I compare two specific colors. I can compare teal-900 to green for example, but I would like to compare specifically green-400: is that possible?

Because of my experience with Kitty I agree this is a little bit of a pain point which could use some TLC by all parties involved. However, kitty seems to occupy a unique position on this and although it has intriguing ideas does not seem t

Textmate 2 had some support for proportional width and different heights and styles in its early days. Don’t know how it panned out since I’ve since stopped using it.

It’s true tapes are okay when time is not of the essence, but there’s currently a lot of pain dealing with tapes when it comes to loading reading writing and verifying everything. You need some way to make sure the data on the tape matches

I recently purchased one of the Sceptre TVs and overall am happy with it. The only drawback I found was the sound is not great: it is tinny and muddled (possibly because it's wall-mounted). I'm planning to buy some external speake
