Yeah, I understand from a product perspective, but the studio feels like a bit of a weird product to me, I'd much rather either buy a mini form factor for the size, or just get a proper desktop machine (since the Mac Pro has been outda

Same for me, I bought it thinking I'd use my desktop more anyway so I wanted something very light, fanless and with long lasting battery – and I've ended up using it as my daily driver since the summer. It's absolutely flawle

I would strongly recommend the M2 air at 24GB, I too bought one of the first M1 airs with 8GB ram and that laptop is just gathering dust right now, but the latest ones are great, the increase in RAM really lets the processor shine.

New Mac mini with the M2 Pro maxes out at 32GB memory, that's quite disappointing compared to the Macbook Pro's 96GB. On the other hand, my M2 Macbook Air is one of the best purchases I've made in a long time, great fanless l

That’s not readable at all. Chaining ternary operators like that is much worse than the code the article shows. Maybe it’s a stylistic choice, but there’s nothing wrong with a sequence of “else ifs” as long as you don’t go deeper (like in t

When you buy new builds in bulk you also don’t pay full price, the builder will extend a nice discount as it provides a great channel to get rid of inventory and move on to the next site.

Blackrock invested over £350m just in my former employer to finance new builds in the UK, it’s not just second hand.

Indeed, as a UK renter dealing with one of these mega landlords (eg Greystar) is so much better than the usual exploitation game that private landlords play.

Having recently had to move homes, I welcome these mega landlords with open arms. They verticalise the whole process and in doing so greatly improve the experience for tenants. The traditional process with estate agents and unreasonable pri

Indeed, Blackrock invested hundreds of millions just in a former employer of mine in the smaller UK market. They are really heavily invested in property

If you look at the link provided by this thread’s parent you’ll see the credential database / API is encrypted, and the input is 3 bytes of the username hash. None of what you’re describing is possible. Even if it was, it would not be

If you want your static html to process a form, a few years ago the simplest approach was to add a php file to your site. Nowadays it is to create a zap webhook and point your form there. My point was that this is not and has never been a c

by mpeg 4y ago
It is simple, people have been processing forms with CGI-style tools for ages (php etc, even this website!). With modern web services the equivalent is to use zapier/pipedream or built in services like netlify forms. You can get a lot

This happened to me too, and I also had no idea how to fix it – if you can figure it out let me know as I've ended up migrating to another email provider but would rather use gmail to keep all my accounts together

It's just awkwardly worded, I think. It probably should include a mention of ProcessPoolExecutor in the following bit where it explains the run_in_executor function to make more sense. Especially as the whole section talks about passin

by mpeg 4y ago
Well, that section is talking about CPU-bound tasks, and both threads and processes are valid choices for CPU-bound tasks, with different tradeoffs. I think there is often a lot of confusion around that because a lot of tutorials simply say

In case the author reads this, there is an error in the "How to Execute a Blocking I/O or CPU-bound Function in Asyncio?" [0] It reads: > The asyncio.to_thread() function creates a ThreadPoolExecutor behind the scenes to e

Javascript is actually great for accessibility, it’s really hard to properly implement WAI-ARIA without it. Most people with screen readers will have js enabled too.

It makes sense, I didn’t really mean my comment as a dismissal of your product btw; I understand that you’re trying to build a set of tools that cover the whole range of what a company might need to do KYC — you’re not really competing with

by mpeg 4y ago
If your chief risk officer is any good, they will start raising red flags all over if you suggest in-housing KYC fully. You suddenly have to think about stuff like: - where are you storing the passport data? Who has access to it? How is it
412.
by mpeg 4y ago
Hey, as someone who’s had to implement this in the past: no. If anything, outsourcing your KYC makes a lot of sense for most companies. You reduce risk as vendors like onfido have spent literally hundreds of millions building their platform

I would bet that’s how it works, the calls are recorded to obtain more video. That’s also probably why the second call had the same video, if it was a deepfake they could have had multiple or longer videos.

I'm not sure why you think MPA is somehow inherently slower than a SPA For a complex application, data has to load in from the server on every page load – it can't simply be all bundled into the js. In eBay's case, a MPA usin

I can see this being very useful for web3 projects once you add support for the discord scope. A lot of the time you just want a way of logging in with a wallet and link to discord in a secure way. I've implemented this for a bunch of

My bad, you’re right it seems they’re currently using a vdom; I suppose this is something they’re looking to get rid of before 1.0 since I’ve seen they’re implementing signals for reactive updates (like solid does)

I don't disagree, plus the Amazon metric has been quoted everywhere with very little context, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was not fully accurate. However, there are teams that have a lot of insight into the needs of ecommerce

by mpeg 4y ago
Right, but the reason it was kept in a hidden field was that it would then go to the server on form submission and the server would persist it across requests, if I recall correctly – haven't done ASP.NET in more than a decade. Either
