Feels like a punch in the stomach. git.io has its place in the world, namely for creating code comments to Github immutable permalinks (that is, with SHA markers) that would otherwise surpass a conventional column limit, making linters co

For all the complexity of OAuth, an OAuth token is essentially a free pass for $stuff. Perhaps we could start validating that a token not only is valid, but also is digitally, freshly signed with a known certificate? I'd say there&#x27

Earlier this week I started feeling hearing discomfort for certain textures of sounds - namely those metallic or screeching. I don't feel pain or ringing but those sounds definitely irritate me in a disproportionate way. Does that soun

You're missing the point which is not justifying the invasion, but suggesting that the US deliberately favored it because it happened to know Putin's sensibilities and how would he react to things. Which, I can add, would be not t

I'll point out the obvious: Ukraine is simply too close to home for many of us Europeans - they're our neighbors, colleagues, friends, we vacation in Kiev, they're our football rivals. We broadly share culture, race, etc. Few

There has to be at least one variation of this question per month over here. Sometimes the wording is kind of subtle but also the intent can be seen. Nothing wrong with outsourcing ideas, but if you don't have itches to scratch, perhap

I know this comes at odds with "no photos allowed" but is there some good footage on youtube? Sounds like something I'd enjoy watching, just like 80s warehouse parties with early acid house.

That video shows poor technique, it's the arms/hands that should hover over the keyboard, in one motion. Stretching the fingers for reaching a given key is bad, Dvorak masks this by minimizing travel, which is simply a workaround

As of lately I've found a useful insight in the opposite direction: getting 'in the zone' is never instantaneous. Just like many other activities (e.g. social, or sport), you can't go from 0 to 100 just like that. And th

With all the talk about seal tightness I'm deeply surprised so few people use a fitter to tighten their masks. I feel naked without my fitter - I'd feel the air leaking from where it's not supposed to.

I'd have some amount of healthy skepticism over obvious concerns (most prominently, keeping IP safe) but it also it seems worth a shot; it solves a real problem because often for teams code reviews are a bottleneck and bit of a battl

Devil's advocate: some projects are extremely open-ended and will always have issues, hundreds of them. Bugs will be a permanent condition of the project so some bugs might be not deemed relevant, ever. Auto-closing helps here. If nobo

$137M very obviously incentivates people to engage into frivolous litigation. Only a fraction of that money should be awarded to the victim. The rest could as well go to charity, or our public health system, etc.

Even a specific dependency can sneak malicious code. For example foo-2.3.1 when distributed over npm is not guaranteed to match its source over github. Here's a popular piece explaining various plausible scenarios https://me

Yes I regard LSP highly and used it for one past job in particular. Other than that I enjoy a slow-moving Emacs setup. Also for Clojure in particular which is my main area of focus, the runtime-centric approach tends to be more accurate tha

The article mentions VSCode. Shouldn't Emacs' lsp-mode just work over it? I do Java tangentially (as part of daily Clojure work) and have various Java-centric functionalities working quite smoothly. I haven't gone as far as u

Great input thanks. I've hinted over the responses to my OP how I tend to structure the programs I design. Other than that, arguing over specifics is somewhat besides the point. It would be great to have a standardized benchmark/c
