I was looking for golang in this thread and this is the only reference I found. Would you mind linking the Go book you reference? Thanks

It’s not that, they’re pushing the “before you go” page to the history stack. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History/pus... You can see it if you right click the back button after

Press "Click to see More". Then the message is there, displayed as bytes encoded into hex. There is a toggle to display that data in UTF-8 format too.

my first 5x5 try was 0:58. I was actually very surprised when it came together as it felt like i was just randomly fitting pipes to their nearest neighbors.

Personally I find struct field tags a nice way to encode the json fields. They also allow you to use upper case names for all struct members. I’ve never had an issue with the way json is done in golang, and I’m kind of confused by this rebu

I think the confusing part is the live view of utf-8 encoded memory scrolling by. As opposed to samples or profiles, which are more evidently useful to those who aren't doing systems programming regularly.

They were not trying to steal your number. They were using your number to back a new google voice account, so that they could get another free number from google. It’s a common scam, used on facebook marketplace sellers as well, and actuall

One of the ones in SF bloomed just last weekend! Was very cool to see. Their lifecycle is very interesting too — an earlier stage of the plant is a large tree-like structure that is actually just a leaf! One of those was present as well.

Network Egress always gets a bad rap but recently it's the SSD cost on AWS/GCP that has me upset. IMO storage needs to take on some of network egress's heat :) $0.10 per GB-month for a basic SSD is outrageous compared to Hetz

TPU VMs are an incredible, incredible product. If you were put off by the previous TPU Node architecture, you should definitely come back and give this a shot. The dev/debug loop is just so much nicer now that the TPU is local to your

Have you been to a 7-11 in the US? I would be quite shocked to hear anyone contemplate eating much of the food if they could afford not to. Nothing at _all_ like the ones in Japan.

I've never actually paid for PACER. They waive the fees if you're below $X every quarter. And it's a generous enough $X.

Wordle has the most fantastic share button I've seen. It copies a spoiler-free version of your game board into your clipboard so you can share as you wish, no links or growth spam. Normally I avoid the buttons because they just try to

This is mind boggling. NSO used a compression format's instructions to create logic gates and then from there "a small computer architecture with features such as registers and a full 64-bit adder and comparator which they use to
