Well, for years our logs would fill up with these nasty warnings of "connection dropped", something like that. Naturally, you think that's just some badly configured client, mobile connection, something. But then why would it

And if you set your own content length header, most http servers will respect it and not chunk. That way, you can stream a 4-gig file that you know the size of per the metadata. This makes downloading nicer because browsers and such will th

Except that ev “tanks” are full every morning. Besides, all cars are garbage when everyone uses them at once, until Texas finally builds their 200-lane freeway. Give me a bike with wide tires.

Sure, but then DNS breaks on the device and it's useless. Might as well just hit it with a hammer.

Ah, gotcha, thanks.

Are all those lambdas to walk the tree down to the field you want so that it doesn’t have to parse all the bytes you don’t care about? Is it the efficiency of SAX without being horrible to read and write?

Yes, unlike every other social network. Or email. Or SMS. Or any other chat. Etc.

Well, for another anecdote from the PNW, there are dozens of combo chargers in the 300 miles North of me and 6-8 in the 300 miles south. They seem to mostly work, more are going in, and old, unreliable ones are getting swapped out. It’s not

Yeah, if it was intentional, it would probably be a hard-coded, encrypted URL. Some devices are starting to do that to get around ad blocking.

Someone is always around to point out that entertainment is not food or health care and you are free to choose which, and how much to consume. And that consuming all of it, all the time, however you like, for pennies, is not a human right.

That’s true. But once you get it set up, you can check the status, see when it last ran, when it will run next, the logs from the last run, if it failed last time, why, etc. You can stop it, start it, restart it, disable it. Simeone just ne

I grew up in Phoenix. Your house is AC, and your car is in a conditioned garage. You get out of the car and feel heat for as long as it takes to walk to the grocery store or the office. Maybe a few minutes a day, total. Adults at least. Som

And it you don’t want to pay, and can’t handle ads, don’t use the service. I don’t understand why people think they are entitled to any content they want, when they want it, for free.

> Or is it such a low power transmitter that it doesn't need licensing? This is my guess. Seems like it's intended to sync up speakers before Sonos and the like, so probably in the same class as those little FM broadcasters we

Thank you! Dealing with time, calendars and durations has always been the hardest part of Rust for me. And yes, I’m including the borrow checker and async! It’s so painful to come from something like the JVM where time operations and formed

Oh yeah. I built the oauth 2 stack at my company. Just read through the spec and made sure I did everything, and was obviously very careful. It was pretty boring and grinding. For a personal site, I’d use something off the shelf for sure.

What you named are NOT BS jobs. A BS job is one that, if it disappeared tomorrow, no one would even notice (or things would become _more_ efficient). Your examples would result in carts piling up in parking lots, people with $500 of groceri

Just install the keybindings. Then you can use those on any IDE on any OS forever. And Vim, of course. :)

Okay… I’m just saying that restricting access to a lavatory sounds cruel and unusual. If you meant to say that we can prevent phones from also entering said restroom, then that sounds great. I have my doubts that it’s possible, but I’m fine

I just use the hell out of my phone battery and pay 50 bucks every 3 years to replace it.

If the old insulin works just as well, and is basically free, why is everyone paying through the nose for the newly patented stuff?

There is a local push integration. I don’t know if you can setup without internet though.

Second this; I love mine. And the base station has a UDP port you can listen to for all the real-time data, making integration with Home Assistant and the like pretty straight forward and 100% local.

This is it, and it's probably mostly about CarPlay/Android Auto. You can find 10-year-old cars with CarPlay these days. The cars are old, but guess what, once you plug in your phone, your interface is the latest iOS, same as any o
