This is so annoying when SPAs break browser functionality like open link in new tab. Even if it works often it has to reload a bunch of JS again, which makes things veeery slow. This is why I really don't like Linear, I often open issu

I use a user agent switcher extension to tell Google I am browsing with Lynx to remove some of the annoyances.

It's not possible for a human to do what an LLM does at scale, for sure. But that's the difference, humans are not robots, so they will turn the the problem around and will try to find ways on how to not have to do this in the fir

Interesting approach. I'm a bit old-school, when I make a change I already have all the context and beyond in my head, plus all the expectations from colleagues, historical context etc that might be useful to remind people about. At le

I find the commits written by AI often inadequate, as they mostly just describe what is already in the diff, but miss the background on why was the change needed, why this approach was chosen, etc, the important stuff...

I think, if you work with logging long enough this becomes common sense at some point. Consider when logging backend performance or subscription gets hit by bursts - e.g. an unlikely code path gets repeatedly hit that logs an error or in th

Or at least they don't cover business logic if they pass while breaking it.

This is very familiar. Rough draft, some manual execution often wrapped in a unit test executor, or even written in a different scripting language just to verify the idea. This often helped me to show that we don't even want to build t

Is this on Linux? Do you have an example of a website where Yubikey does not work? I'm curious, because I use Firefox on Linux for years, also for work, and never hit a site where my Yubikeys would not work. (I'm also using Google

EDIT: Sorry, I misread, Newt is the WireGuard client and is based on wireguard-go if I'm correct.

This looks really nice. I have set up something similar just recently with an OPNSense box running DNS, the WireGuard instance and getting a wildcard Let's Encrypt cert that it pushes to my Synology reverse proxy (Nginx). So from my cl

Check the notes.rewrite config options in https://git-scm.com/docs/git-notes#Documentation/git-notes.t... Also notes.rewriteRef. You can use these to configure git to carry your notes across amend/rebase.

I wrote a little tool for versioning based on conventional commits that uses git note for a version override. In case you want to force a specific version instead of the one autodetected, you can add a git note with the version you want. Th

I imagine it like this. Juniors will be taught by LLMs on some things, but seniors will still be there, they will still assist, pair program, code review, etc. but they will have another party, the LLM, like a smarter calculator.

Oh. Yes. Little Bobby "show me your private repos" we call him.

Most of my family was using FB Messenger, but now it's WhatsApp, unfortunately still Meta, and I hate it, but at least it's encrypted and old messages are autodeleted. I couldn't convince them yet to use Signal or Matrix. Sig

I think, I need to buy new HW maybe. My 12 core 32GRAM laptop is running these local models so slowly, it's unusable (I do have an Nvidia card in it as well, but I ended up disabling due to issues under Wayland/wlroots and didn&#x

Oh, totally, I am very well aware that most people don't care much about this, which also makes my outbound emails less private in turn. And the irony, I don't use Google myself, but my wife does, and even when I set up a new mail

Indeed. What I meant was that it's cheaper to drop than to generate a reply. But you are right, and I also mentioned in the other reply, that my router wouldn't stand a chance dropping or replying to a DDoS anyway, so probably thi

Fair enough. For me personally it's not that big of a concern. I just remember from a previous network monitoring gig that using ICMP had a few problems with rate limiting. But that wasn't my cheap router at stake. It's proba

Nice. One thing that I am concerned about is giving my emails to Gemini (or any other third party). The article mentioned that they wrote a new MCP server because they didn't trust existing third party tools. For me it is the same, but

I am not a network engineer, but when I hear ICMP, I associate it with consuming CPU on my shitty router and DDos potential. I only block ICMP for unknown external traffic (response to packets not otherwise blocked by firewall, then aggress

Indeed, that's my experience too. We used partitions like others mentioned below, but Postgres had issues with moving rows across tables atomically and had to implement our custom complex queries to overcome it. Plus job expiration was
