Do you have a source for this? Interested in reading more. Unless it’s your personal summary, in which case curious what sources you used, or if it’s from an LLM in which case I’ll just ask it myself.

It’s an interesting time we live in. I personally don’t assume people who use whitelist are racist, or those who allowlist are virtue signaling. However, I certainly do assume that people who chastise others for using “whitelist” are virtue

Allowlist is arguably fitting for a list of things which are allowed.

Cool, you’ve said all you needed to. You can now safely be ignored by our entire industry as far as I’m concerned. Enjoy your lack of vertical mobility!

Out of curiosity, what’s the last “real problem” you solved?

Then just find a new career maybe? I sure as hell wouldn’t hire you at this point.

Glancing over your comment history, this seems to be a trend for you; being intentionally abrasive/provocative for no reason. And you get downvoted to oblivion as a result, so I'd hope you understand by now that your comments aren

That was my Google Play Music use case as well. About a year ago I set up a plex server on my NAS and bulk downloaded my GPM library onto it (which to google’s credit was easy to do). Now I have them on my own hardware, and accessible on t

That’s not realistic if you ever go on call. When you’re responsible for the uptime of a service and people’s first line of contact for issues is a slack message, you need to always have it be in a state to interrupt you. Your personal webs

Humor is subjective.

It’s almost like humor is subjective. Yes, many people suck at it and do it in wrong or counterproductive ways, especially with the rise of “prank” YouTube channels and the like which view embarrassing people as the end goal. But there are

Extremely verbose is right. Here's one such approach in java that I found last year - https://github.com/sgreben/regex-builder . Yeah, regex can be a bit clunky at times and has a steeper learning curve, but they&

If this were to be offered by an actual company (a first party solution), there are some features that'd be expected that make the problem space a lot harder. Here's an "intro to search" article that's a good read,

1) Most people don't care enough about that to even be bothered by it, never mind change their entire tooling and move large amounts of code out of protest. 2) You are the exact same, it seems, if not worse on account of your hypocrisy

I downvoted you for this despite agreeing with you. Since you have a brand new username, I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you’re just new here and not intentionally trolling, and explain why. This community val

Yeah, maybe “to hell and back” was strong, but it was used as the setting for “The Lab”, one of Valve’s first VR demos, and there’s a mod called “Portal Stories VR” which is one of the most developed and popular VR mods currently.

It’s not new tho, Chelle in portal was a female protagonist, and that game has been VR’d to hell and back. I think Alyx makes sense as a protagonist given how prominent of a character she was in HL2, regardless of gender.

The issue with swift on the server currently is that it’s an entirely different compilation toolchain to that run on MacOS and iOS, so the language has different bugs than those that exist for app development, and gets less attention from s

This is seriously your argument? Alright, hold my red bull, it's math time. Let's assume they're using a Boeing Vertol 234, a civilian model of the Chinook commonly used for firefighting. They're double rotor, and as s

I doubt it. “Tampering” usually requires an intent to obscure or subvert. Computation photography applied broadly to all photos doesn’t have that. Definition from OED: “interfere with (something) in order to cause damage or make unauthoriz

The git metadata should be updated with the approximate time stamps of when the changes were made. I’ve long wanted to try to do this type of thing with the US code of law. Beyond just being cool to look through, I think it’d make a lot of

Did you take a taxi any time before uber came along? Unless you’re in a major city (NY, LA, London), or are somewhere like an airport, you’d need to call them, potentially hours in advance in rural areas, and organize a pick up. Knowing if

Ever wanted a database with all the operational complexity of Kafka, and more? Well now you can have it! It’s exciting as someone more in the SRE side, because you’d need to pay be an obscene amount to support this.
