I'm a huge proponent of the web, but Apple shouldn't be able to dictate what stack I use to build an app, especially when they also control what capabilities reach the "open" web platform on their devices.

Actually no, they are prefixed by the binary name and the PID number. Technically they are prefixed with: `<date> <host> <binary>[<pid>]`. You can then use `systemctl status <pid>` to identify the unit if you n

Ooh nice. What are some examples of things it will catch?

While I'm very pro journalctl, this is very true. They should put some work into the initial read performance on big journals.

> This was a really big pain, yes, but I also remember how I could `tail -f *.logs`. Others point out that journalctl supports `-f` and `-n` for determining how much journal to return, but for me what's great about journalctl is tha

Well, I tried to run a Mac binary on Windows and it didn't work, so now I don't like Mac.

Well the UN has already done that, moving it from Schedule IV to Schedule I. Note that the schedules are reversed in the UN's system. So it appears that US rescheduling would bring drug policy closer into alignment with the UN than bef

Interesting! Thanks!

I don't believe that's true. Can you provide some details? There are some programs indie devs can use to get software on Xbox, but they require approval from MS, which is the opposite of side loading.

Complaining about downvoting is bad form. If you are temporarily downvoted on a post and react by editing it to complain, that's a surefire way for that post to remain negative on its point balance.

Yes, before it was launched it was a different OS. The iPhone forced a pivot. Nonetheless, the very first phone that shipped with Android on it was the T-Mobile G1 (also branded as the HTC Dream). > Just something else I was thinking abo

Yep I've done it. What a pain. Thankfully now the Switch does have captive portal detect and a little purpose built web view for agreeing to the terms.
345.
by rezonant 2y ago
That's explicitly why captive portal detection does not use HTTPS. If your OS of choice fails to detect captive portal (or doesn't implement detection), and you have the ability to visit a website, you can visit example.com to get

Isn't the zip support in explorer the stuff written by Dave Plummer? I would imagine MS has the rights to that already, and if they don't, I'd imagine Dave would, and I'm sure he'd be fine with it being released. He

Hashicorp's relicensing could also have been a tactic to get the sale to happen.

I bet they'll organize it under Red Hat, and Red Hat will apply their open source policy to it, and that will involve reverting to OSI approved licenses

Well no, the idea is that these are not related pieces of content. It's less of a newspaper article and more about independent items that are placed across the page. You don't have to follow the flow exactly as a user, but followi

But the screen size is an important part of how the library will lay out the bricks, and that isn't known until JS runs (this can kind of be done with client hints, but not on initial page load)

Yes that's where I'm torn. I love seeing vendor interest either way. But grid is already extremely complicated, and so easy to get wrong it's a meme at this point. Creating even more confusion about how it's fundamentals

There's no gravity here, so the comparison makes no sense. In walls masonry construction produces sheer lines horizontally, an axis gravity is not bearing upon. This feels like taking the metaphor just a tad too literally.

by rezonant 2y ago
Such browsers can also get by based on the semantic ordering of content within the document, which will more closely match the visual reality when a masonry type layout is used. The alternative of defining several columns leads to at least
354.
by rezonant 2y ago
A big reason is because it's not possible on the web, and it's worth noting that the kind of visual you see in masonry demos is the most extreme example of what you could do with it. Most of the time it's: I want to fill a pa

This is creating a mode of grid where we say "it's not actually a grid" and is my biggest problem with this philosophically. It makes more sense to treat it as it's own display type, where the row/column targeting d

There is no reasonable fallback when JS is not present or hasn't yet executed, and that's not acceptable. I can't stress enough how important this is for content experiences. Your content must display reasonably before all be

But masons build floors like this all the time, and it is not an engineering disaster. That's the metaphor. The reason you think it would be a disaster is the load of gravity against it, a concept they have not yet introduced into CSS,

by rezonant 2y ago
So you're saying the a11y tree and tab ordering is bypassing the actual ordering of content and instead traversing the columns one by one? I'd call that a bug. In a masonry layout the expectation of a sighted user is that there is

Oh yes please. Masonry is definitely the missing piece right now. And I run into cases where designers give it to me pretty regularly-- I don't want to crush their dreams but without a JS-free masonry solution, the dreams are getting c
