Monotonic version relies on locking to avoid conflicts. Not applicable in this case.

I guess that was before UUIDv7 was a thing? Is there a reason to pick ULID over it?
933.
by sedatk 3y ago
ULID has an unnecessarily convoluted monotonically incrementing variant in its spec which requires serialization to generate IDs without conflicts. That makes the spec look like trying to solve multiple irrelevant problems in one shot. That

More importantly, Base58 is orders of magnitude slower than Base64/Base32/Base16 due to O(N^2) algorithms required to encode/decode it. Blockchain software is already trying to get rid of it. Adopting Base58 now would be shor

Such identity checks would also hurt honest contributors who want to hide their identity for other, legitimate reasons.

It depends on that random reseller's pricing, no? I got mine for $30.

My guess would be that they needed instant updates. Rick had said that MSStore took days to publish updates, IIRC.

You can build native and self-contained binaries in C# too.

Just buy it on Amazon for $10 more, and you're good to go.

I didn’t know about ISO 15408, but as I understand from what you say, that isn’t broad or comprehensive enough to be widely used.

"Written in Rust" is quickly turning into the programming equivalent of "This web site is secure" badge. Yes, Rust can eliminate a significant portion of memory-safety related bugs. But it doesn't eliminate all bugs

> the repeated nature of the moves On a single game? I don’t think the goal is to pack all plays together and unpack them every time. Every game must be individually accessible as I understand.

So, Huffman encoding but for chess moves?

I'm not arguing that at all. See my comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39713557

I mean, yes, but when we take irrationality into account, we can't discount the irrationality of saying "if it's suicide, it's not me" to a friend, and then committing suicide right after. My point isn't about

No. If you’re concerned that you might get murdered, and want to make it clear that you have no intention of killing yourself, telling your one friend about it in a conversation in the midst of moving a sofa with no records to prove it what

True. Mod power is abused a lot. But that’s a different problem, not necessarily mutually exclusive with scaling.

Reddit's subreddit structure and the underlying moderation system is quite scalable: site admins only deal with the things that subreddit moderators have failed to. And, in case they keep failing, admins can shut down the subreddit or

Love that the title's marked "(2011)", so that we shouldn't expect the latest developments on vegetable stock from this article. It might even be outdated now, and be replaced with a superior stock of sorts.

It's more than channeling audio files to browser's codecs though. A SID player for example runs a 6502 CPU emulator and a SID chip emulator on the browser using JS. So, it's problematic in such scenarios. Otherwise, I can wat

Other interesting notes: - Firefox on WSL2 on the same machine gets 10.1 despite that the rendering must be horribly slow since it goes through Remote Desktop layer. - Firefox gets a 25% speed boost when I disable 1Password extension. Disab

Any track plays completely garbage on Edge. The beat skips, the sound cuts off. This one for instance: https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/F/Fate/World_R... I think Edge's problems come fr

On my machine, Firefox got 12.3, and Edge (Chromium) got 12.8. I don't believe that the performance characteristics of these two are that close unless I'm missing something. For example, audio players on Edge stutter a lot while F
