Should be "sound out", but great breakdown and mnemonics.

Commit messages aren't a great place for this, much of the time, because then you have to do archaeology just to figure out why something is the way it is. I'm certainly a fan of including lots of detail in commit messages, but of

« Apologies that this didn't come through in the initial support reply. » "Didn't come through" doesn't actually match the user's report of having support explicitly offering 20% and then 5% payment. It sounds

"Why" comments typically refer to things outside of the actual code, such as: * Past incidents * Regulations * What the code used to do, and why that was bad The whole point of a really good comment is that you can't infer

In the Boston area, our water comes from the Quabbin Reservoir. That's largely fed by rain, as far as I am aware. How much PFAS actually gets filtered out? Probably not much.

Makes sense. I tend to carry things in my left hand to leave my dominant right hand free for other tasks. And cradling an infant while trying to get other stuff done is very, very common.

Frankly, I'm glad Authy Desktop is dead. It didn't allow exporting of TOTP secrets, so migrating off of it was a pain. I've been much, much happier with a tiny shell alias to oathtool and gpg. For extra benefit, bind a keyboa

Yes, keeping track of second factors is... definitely not a solved problem. Relatedly, I have to manually maintain a text file of all of the sites I've used my Yubikeys on so that if I lose one I know where-all I have to rotate to a ne

Weird to describe one of the applications as solving famine. We can already do that with grains and pulses, and more efficiently than using those as feedstocks for an expensive industrial process.

There are a lot of sharp corners, but going for the beta option was not a wise move.

Are PWAs able to speak XMPP?

Ah, I see what you're saying. I'm... not actually sure, though. There's a huge amount of recorded work to draw from, and just a larger number of people working on things. It might be that we're actually better off in our

Are you kidding? I freaking love this invention. I just don't think it's evidence for some kind of civilizational decline.

Where do you get that from? We still come up with crazy designs all the time (that are rejected in favor of robustness, compatibility, etc.)

« the point where it touches the ground is ahead of the pivot point of the front post » The other way around -- the contact patch of the tire is behind the projection of the head tube onto the ground. I love that there are actually three di

That would certainly be awful.

Frankly, I thought this was reasonably common knowledge (although Intuit's opposition is better known and gets more press). Some links illustrating this as a partisan issue: - https://www.accountingtoday.com/news/r

Probably worth breaking out a separate feature "html-manifest" on caniuse. Also, I want to echo that MDN is a fantastic resource.

And what about when "all that remains" is 47 different possibilities? That's not a very satisfying truth.

Probably safer to rotate the credentials and then schedule it for deletion later. Then if you discover it wasn't unused after all, you have an easier recovery... :-)

I'd be very wary of this. Very few medical conditions have any kind of strong and simple link to known genes or gene networks. "This gene combo has a 10% chance of mortality due to cardiac causes" doesn't tell you much a

What does "OSRF" stand for? Is this like CSRF, but... "Own-Site Request Forgery", maybe?

Based on what I've seen of LLM output, not to mention people's difficulty in detecting problems in it? No.

This is an interesting piece that pulls back the covers on some of the threats to journalism today, even if I really dislike the strategy they've arrived at. (I'm not giving my email address. We really need a better replacement fo

I find it odd that the author spends so little time discussing cultural differences. He mentions it briefly, and certainly it sounds like he doesn't have enough data on multicultural responses... but that's even more reason to n

Yes, but I have this nagging feeling that it has more to do with the unicycle than the rider... not sure where I'm getting that feeling...

As an engineer on call, I have been in this conversation so many times: "Hey, should we go red?" "I don't know, are we sure it's an outage, or just a metrics issue?" "How many users are affected again?&quo
