Since the Github issue is turning into an unusable mess and I am currently experiencing emotions I don't have to unleash here... There is an interesting comment by one of the older maintainers of stylus, Panya [1]. Taking this at face

This makes me wonder if Ozzy will have one last appearance at Wacken, like Lemmy did.

Black Sabbath, of which Ozzy was the frontman, is considered to be either one of around three, or the one founder of heavy metal. It may not be entirely right to say so, because there was a development going on around that time, but the ent

There are btw modern tractors that can drive autonomously on the fields. You configure the GPS coordinates of the field and the tractor can do various routes and patterns through the field on it's own. You're just not allowed to l

I was curious how this would look in C, and I found this article[1] how this could look in C, apparently with very little overhead. And as I just saw, Python 3.10 also introduced a NewType[2] wrapper. I'll have to see how that feels to

And - having dealt with parser construction in university for a few months - the only real way to deal with this is fuzzing and round trip tests. It sounds defeatist, but non-trivial parsers end up with a huge state space very quickly - and

This might be a bit off-topic, but I've been working on my drum sounds. I was pretty unhappy that snares + kickdrum ended up being really loud, so I'd turn down the drum sounds, so the hihat and cymbals also went down and couldn&#

Maybe I'm a bit of a downer there, but I looked at the overall effort and time investment of making Gridfinity and rather got myself a cutting board and glue to recycle old cardboard. Don't get me wrong, Gridfinity looks amazing.

That sounds like a horrible setup though and is a good way to MFA fatigue and other security issues. In our case - I counted this morning too - I have 2 MFA authentications (VPN and the IDP used by Keycloak) until I have my Keycloak session

I was somewhat pondering along these lines. At work, we have somewhat of a two-staged auth: Once or at most twice a day, you login via the ADFS + MFA to keycloak, and then most systems depend on keycloak as an OIDC provider with 10 - 15 min
