For me, "log in" has a very specific meaning - it's the complex process, usually interactive, that takes username and password and whatever 2FA you have and produces the session cookie. This is pretty different from "aut

that's some terrible reporting... nowhere it shows the "link" header. If you want to see what Linus was mad about, see: https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/linux/commit/?h=io_uring-6.17-202... and yes,

Neither of those, the main problems are: - There is no backward or forward compatibility by default. (Sure, you can have every SEQUENCE have all fields OPTIONAL and ... at the end, but how many real-life schemas like that you have seen? Alm

Are you talking about runtime complexity or programming-time complexity? If the runtime, then I bet almost no one will notice, especially if the appropriate caching is used. If the programming-time - sure, but it's not like you can avo

Maybe if the cars weren't so bad, I'd be more loyal to them. Latest example: on my current car, if I wanted to tune treble EQ (say I entered loud section of highway), or a balance (my passengers don't like current song), it t

When you read words like: "Nobody seems to know how to..", you should mentally translate this to "_I_ don't know how to ... and I am unwilling to learn" At my job, I've spent a lot of time making the existing s

You'd need all-news tools for non-text world as well. So the real choice is either: - new tool: grep with caching reverse-formatter filter. - new tool: ast-grep with understanding of AST serialization format for your specific language.

At least the parsers are optional now - you can still grep, diff, etc.. even if your tools have no idea about language's semantics. But if you store ASTs, you _have_ to have the support of each of the language for each of the tools (be

Nice to know. It would be nicer to write the new content first, and only then truncate. This way even if the worst happens, there is less data loss.

While I can imagine having budget overload from storage, most (all?) of the "horrors" on the page are from compute or access. Set it up so that machines are deleted, but EBS volumes remain. S3 bucket is locked-out but data is safe

for such a well-documented repo, the complete lack of sample outputs is surprising. I don't want to run the code, just show me some perturbed plates!

Counterproductive for what? If I am writing for entertainment value, I see no problem with blocking all AI agents - the goal of text is to be read by humans after all. For technical texts, one might want to block AI agents as well - they of

Oh, I remember ASN.1 very well, and I would not want to repeat it again. Protobufs have lots of problems, but at least they are better than ASN.1!

"medium voltage" here is in the DC transmission sense, that is 1500V 300A. In electronics context, that's a very high voltage and current, enough to power a few full racks worth of servers.

I don't understand why you need discovery in personal apps at all. They are just for you, you know exactly what's available and what's not. Do you need document storage? Hardcode `sftp://192.168.1.18/data` (or

This is about Titan Forge, making methanol fuel from solar power. See https://www.biofuelsdigest.com/bdigest/prometheus-fuels-reac... for example. There are no information about cost, so I suspect it is quite high.
