For folks who don't know how passkeys work at a technical level, take a look at this implementation guide: https://webauthn.guide/ I don't get the passkey hate -- moving to public key challenge for authentication

Good question! - Transparency about the work. (Communicate progress without being prompted. Share screenshots & be excited about what you develop!) - Don't be a hero. (If something is difficult, collaborate with the team and don

I've used ChatGPT to write my tests. It's pretty effective at getting the first 5-6 use cases written out, but in a style that isn't correct. Copy/paste a code module, ask it to write the tests. Then, in the same contex

I have an HD Fury Arcana 2 VRR which overlays text (eg: bitrate information) on top of my normal HDMI signal. ( https://hdfury.com/ ) I don't think this behavior is customizable.. (but maybe with some hacking).

I think most stressful development environments happen because a manager either isn't familiar with how software development is done (resulting in unreasonable expectations), or the manager isn't communicating expectations upwards

It’s not just you. I echo your sentiments. I use Twitter for tech, but my feed is now conservative politics, gore video, & tech tweets intermingled.

Ok, I think I understand the hype now — this is sweet? Thanks for the reply. When I was thinking about rolling my own federated social service (during the whole Twitter / Mastodon shuffle), I started thinking about the negative impact

If I wanted to create a consumer hardware product that packages the PDS host in a user-friendly interface, does the software license permit that? Also, services like Twitter started off with a developer friendly open API, and then it got cl

TIL ARC does ARC.

by nivenhuh 3y ago
I think you mean automatic reference counting (ARC) — and ARC happens at compile time as part of a static analysis pass. (The compiler is basically adding retain/release code for you.) At runtime, it’s functionally close(ish) to mallo

I’m an instrument rated private pilot. The things I like about flight simulator: - it’s great for checking out an unfamiliar area you’re flying to - you can connect ForeFlight to it, so you can use your digital charts / EFB in the same

Yes! Pot is very nice for managing the jails — but I didn’t see anything that behaves similar to docker images as part of its feature set?

I’ve been evaluating FreeBSD, and the primary thing that I miss is the ease of use that comes with using docker images. The jails system + zfs is pretty nice. If there was an ability to snapshot a jail and easily package it as an image… I

Kitchen aid stand mixers converted from using metal gearing to plastic gearing in their consumer stand mixers. After a certain amount of use, the gear wears out and costs $50 for a replacement. The commercial line still uses metal gears.

I am using the Herman Miller Embody and Envelop desk with a foot rest. Being able to pull the desk in/out, switching between reclined / upright, etc.. is great for varying seating positions throughout the day.

Sounds epic, I hope there are pictures!

No, because I believe problems can be iterated on and solutions can be found if people participate in the process. Tearing a system down and replacing it has a significantly higher cost.
