Personally I think Markdown got _really_ popular not because it is easier to write but because it is easier to read. It’s kind of a huge deal that I can give a Markdown file of plain text content to somebody non-technical and they aren’t ov

We had the same reticence about Dependabot missing before we made the switch, but realised Renovate works with Bun and is a good enough stand in for now until support arrives. Absolutely zero regrets, the cumulative savings across everythin

Actions and Codespaces are listed as having "degraded performance" now too - seeing a lot of action builds disappear into the ether and never get added to the queue to run.

Thanks to the ULEZ (ultra-low emission zone) in London, this is very much already happening — anecdotally (because I can't find any easy numbers right now, everything I can find is from 2020) a huge number of the private and public tax

Propagating "noalias" metadata for LLVM has actually finally been enabled again recently in nightly [0]. However it has already caused some regressions so it is not clear whether we may go through another revert/fix in llvm&

Sadly Nashorn, the JS engine that was built into the JVM, has been deprecated as of Java 11: https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/335 It had so many compatibility issues with real JS that it was kind of untenable to use it wi

Hey! I'm one of the co-maintainers of the project here. I've posted a very similar reply to a very similar comment below at [1], but to replay the main points: We absolutely agree this tool only solves the easiest part of anonymi

Hey! I'm one of the co-maintainers of the project here. What you see today in this project is really a means to scratch an itch we had - mainly to quickly and easily sample/obfuscate some delimited data in a way that is "good

I think it was less that Amazon wouldn't provide support for Chromecast with their services and more that they refused to stock and sell Chromecast devices at all. I suppose the difference between this and Walmart's move is that w

I could not agree more As a vinyl collector myself, another thing that interests me is the feeling of quality you get when you buy vinyl. I love looking through the lyric booklets in 10/12" format, beautifully printed and often a

Compared to Rust enumerations, they are one and the same. In fact, looking at the documentation for Swift Enumerations yields this little nugget: You can define Swift enumerations to store associated values of any given type, and the value

It's particularly aggravating playing it in a large city (for us London) where, without the maps as a guide, you're stuck wasting balls on common Pokémon incessantly because that's the only thing around. Add to that the fact

Some similar option for enabling patience diffing as well would be amazing. Those two options in combination would certainly make a not insignificant amount of PRs much more readable.

Some of these errors remind me of Rust and the attempts in that community to give every error an exhaustive description [1]. This looks fantastic, and shows a true commitment to reducing friction with the language - a goal which often goes

The site appears to be struggling, but you can view the Coding Math videos on YouTube [1]. These are really useful. Whether we like it or not, mathematics underpins most of computer science and often beginners don't even know what to s

These are Telegram channels, which is a private individual broadcasting messages to others publicly (as opposed to 1-1 private messaging, which is encrypted end-to-end). It seems perfectly reasonable that they can and will moderate channels

I wonder if we'll see a fresh approach here with the new Alphabet organisational structure. Perhaps Google's finally structured in such a way to let such a company be separate from the rest of the products.
