If you ran the command from this blog post, the msixbundle files that are provided on the github page for Windows Terminal absolutely will not simply install. You may be able to run powershell commands to install it. The program called App

That is just not true in the case of WinGet, WSL, or the Windows Terminal. They are open source, and in theory could be compiled, but they only provide APPX-packaged binaries. WSL itself is avaiable in the Features area, alongside the store

But having the store doesn't prevent legacy apps from installing, and the store provides a number of developer-friendly tools that will improve your ability to support legacy apps.

A number of the apps that appear to be pre-installed on Windows actually aren't. They simply show up in the start menu, and it installs it on the first time you click to run the program. There are quite a lot of important dev-friendly

Great article. I ended up using ULIDs recently, since I had an ORM layer that shared two different database providers (SQLite and SQL Server), and for whatever reason ULID worked when the other options didn't. Something about the diffe

Directions are easier with grids. Numbering systems that ascend and descend from a particular central point make sense. State and Madison is zero. Anything else is a higher or lower number in the direction you are relative to that intersect

Isn't that why they've segregated the Da Vinci model and the Codex model for now? If you want to use Codex, then you need to select that model in the dropdown.

FTX was a golden child beloved by venture capitalists until last month. High likelihood we view these two similarly in the near future.

I have seen a desire for dominance from Linux and Android users. From Rust users. From Typescript users. And from Gnome and KDE users. The developers generally don't feed into the "flame wars" but it is a long tradition in th

If you believe in the ideal of open specifications, it is something that you root for. Probably at least half the desire for dominance is coming from that motivation. The other half from normal profit motive. I guarantee that Intel and Qual

Multiple statements you made are just wrong. There is no law of nature that says a vaccine cannot be made in a year, in the same way that there is no law of nature forbidding any of our technological artifacts that we use every day. Influen

Some people have photosensitivity, such as those with lighter colored irises. HN needs to add dark mode. Until then, I've been using this theme with the Stylus addon. Way better! https://userstyles.world/style/1898

The natural/synthetic distinction is arbitrary, but you are both right. The correct approach would be to get more granular and specify that we only want to elininate chemicals, whether natural or synthetic, that do not break down or ar

We are in the middle of a biotech revolution. Figuring out how to scale up bioengineered materials is a likely source of impressive materials. Nature is full of stuff like spider silk, chitin, bone, phosphorescent materials, sponges,etc.

Why convert USD to USDC and back again, and get two currency exchange dings, on top of the blockchain transfer fees... all for the privilege of still needing to trust Circle (backed by the sinking ship of Coinbase) when you could just do a

Half the world uses only Jus Sanguinis. It has some benefit in terms of clarity and incentives. If you want to be generous and welcoming, that is fine, and could work perfectly well in that framework. All such liberal values would just need

My understanding is that the new government of Honduras is intensely opposed to this, and the entire project is now at risk. Which of course was predictable given the political history there. But it also sounds like the government cannot do

Glad to see ClamAV is still actively maintained and doing feature releases. Obviously using up to date software, minimizing attack surface, and using secure configurations are the first line of defense. But this is a great second line of de

Smart move by Mullenweg. This could easily make Tumblr a dominant player in the fediverse, while enhancing the value proposition for Tumblr.

The safe approach to me is exactly their answer to the tradeoff question. Forcing the application developers to be cautious is just changing who needs to be safe, because reducing problems for your app while increasing overall system instab

Operating in a low memory environment is inherently about tradeoffs. Where is the blame? Maybe Firefox is too bloated or memory-inefficient. Maybe Mozilla didn't understand Windows's memory management strategy until now. Or maybe

I've heard it argued that stereoscopic 3D works best with ultra high refresh rates. The reason it can cause headaches is low refresh rates, but the closer to 1000hz you get, the lower the likelihood of headaches.

A perfect summary of every pro-nuclear argument. The financials for nuclear are truly terrible. At least when it was the cheapest source, the proliferation risks and highly centralized aspect seemed counter-balanced. Now there is no upside,

No surprises. This has been the fate of every other pilot project involving anything blockchain-related.
