Maybe I was unclear, I despise that rule. (also, a computer with 32 GB and 256 GB disk is a very weird combination not quite fitting a typical general purpose computer)

8 GB can, even in this electron world, barely work. But it won't tomorrow. Buying something with 8 GB today is wasting an otherwise perfectly good computer. And when your partner gets a new computer, for whatever reason, the old one ca

This is OS-agnostic. I love the old fact that you should have twice the amount of swap as your RAM size. I could rant but, no. Just don't. Today, don't buy a computer (regardless of size) with less than 32 GB of ram. Yes, this app

Only IF it is correctly implemented. And only if you trust all relevant parties involved in this feature. And honestly, whenever I see that something has been anonymized I assume it isn't. Mostly because the industry has a terrible

I feel like the author generalise too much. His points are valid for one app. I'm not surprised that the web version works better for him, given what kind of app it is, target audience etc. But he writes it as if he is dismissing deskt

And you need to login using a Microsoft-account. Even if both computers are on the same LAN. That part leaves a terrible taste in my mouth. Also debugging in a collaborative session has been broken for years now for us.

I'm sure they do care, but they seems to care more about everything else. Or just are victims of decades of bloat. Or too many teams, where one team obliterated the tuning a hundred other teams did. Because the end result is typically

> Every additional millisecond of load time will reduce engagement This is something people believed in the 90s. None of the megacorps give a damn about that as is evident by their behavior. If it doesn't matter for them it doesn&#

Marketing, if sent to individuals, that was not opted into is per definition spam and illegal.

This is disgusting. Cold spamming is illegal where I'm at, probably Europe as a whole?

No, manufacturers have come to expect monthly revenue on top of getting paid for the hardware.

You assume that the server already knows the key though? The assumption was that it is the first time they connect. Which if so would mean that the key was configured out of band, but if we add that possibility you can do the TOFU out of ba

ratatui.rs is a library, whoever reads that changelog are potentially interested in the nitty gritty details. But I'd say it is the exception rather than rule, and even in that case it is only sensible for projects of a certain size wi

> What you do, is to move the decision whether some information ought to appear in the changelog from the time of release to the time of the commit. Which doesn't make any sense. 20 commits/PRs might fit together in as one li

Those will maybe account for 2x slowdown if we are being generous. The vast majority is just bloat. Unimaginable bloat, hundreds of levels deep.

That is not the context at all. I said when an NSA exploit gets out in the wild. Not that NSA would actively target randoms.

2: key based ssh won't really help and isn't the magic bullet people seem to believe. Especially nonencrypted ssh keys which is what the majority uses.

It wasn't my assumptions that was wrong, my research (early days of the Pi5) suggested it. Which matches the github issue where the belief was that PPS was supported. But even if that was the case you shouldn't blindly buy one whe

It is part of USB-PD though, it is just a recent addition (PPS) that isn't that common yet. I agree it isn't ideal, but you shouldn't blindly buy a PSU to any computer. Extra easy mistake to make when it is USB-C though.

by tjoff 2y ago
The argument was that you already have a PSU at home. Or in my small town I can get one in 15 minutes, or order it and have it delivered tomorrow. On the contrary, the notebook style external PSUs are more likely to break and much harder to
