Users want to be able to use their existing identity providers. At a minimum it's a red flag for consumers if you don't give them the option to sign in with Google, etc. - and it's simply a deal breaker for many enterprise cu

Then an engineering leader needs to stop that person. Dysfunction can manifest in many ways, and overzealous reviewing is one of them. Changing the process so people can ignore pathological reviewers is a half measure at best. I’m torn abou

Your theoretical objection is divorced from any actual consequences that affect people. Why should anyone care? You state no benefits or harms other than what you feel. My point is about reality, so yes you missed it

You’re missing the key point that there isn’t much surface for misuse under Apples scheme. If the FBI wants to falsely accuse you of having CSAM, inserting a hash from a photo on your phone into the CSAM database is actually much more compl

It sounds like you didn’t read the paper. It’s a reporting system, not an access system. No one can actually be granted access to your photos under Apple’s scheme. One of your photos must be an exact match for photos already existing in the

E2EE is an option for iCloud Photos now, so no, not if it’s turned on. Not sure what you mean about closed source. If you’re implying that the FBI can break Apple’s encryption because it’s closed source, uh, sure.

I don’t understand why comments like this are getting downvoted. I understand the absolutist position against any content scanning, but Apple very clearly tried to strike a middle ground that is far less invasive than the content scanning s

This is one of the most long winded, boring, and disappointing articles I’ve ever read about anything. Spend your time elsewhere, I implore you!

Cool idea, but the LLM was too dumb in my test. I gave it a REST API design book and asked it for a batch update pattern, and it suggested PATCH: "...a good pattern for batch updates is to use the HTTP PATCH method. The PATCH method al

And yet, GitHub seems to be in no rush to support Python in GitHub Packages https://github.com/orgs/github/projects/4247/views/1?filterQ... . This has been TBD status for years. Frustrating for anyon

It looks like faster-cpython wants to include a "simple" (non tracing) JIT into 3.12[^1] anyway so maybe this is just what they need? Timing might be an issue though; since 3.11 was released 10/2022, CPython devs may already

Like everyone here is saying, so much of this is workload dependent, so you can't compare to V8 or LuaJit without controlling for workload.

In order for a standards body to be successful, it must be possible to attempt standards and fail them before they leave the standards body. Otherwise they would lose credibility by publishing recommendations that won't get wide accept

Great argument for zero accountability to users and everyone else impacted by decisions of browser vendors. You don't seem to be aware that the W3C has been chugging along, publishing real web standards that do get implemented, for yea

It's nice to have all of your db operations in Python and automatically integrated with existing Python tooling. It also makes it easier to refactor, organize, etc. SQLAlchemy comes OOTB with a lot of nice convenience tools and functio

USB-C is only a connector spec, and the actual USB protocol it supports could be one of many different versions and options. Or it can be Thunderbolt 3 or 4!

No. Apple has published several papers about how it works. It all happens on device.

> The question is why don't I understand the cascade? The answer is because it is complicated ... This is exactly his point! You think it should be correct usage because "CSS is too complicated." Great, good point, most of

The evidence is that he was one of the designers . You seem to be missing the very simple fact that CSS is has not always existed, and it was not suddenly discovered by programmer explorers, whose prerogative it is to define its usage by t

That's not what it means at all. It just means you find it easier to work outside of the spec's design. He's very clearly saying that if you are doing that, it's always possible to avoid it and work within the intent of

Pemberton is one of the OG designers of the spec. He explained the motivation for the feature when it was designed in committee. It's a much bolder claim to say that because you find it useful in some other way, it's not misuse. I

Having a good justification for misuse doesn't make it not misuse. And bad tooling and hard-to-understand CSS design might be reasonable excuses to not understand cascades, but the point is valid -- even more valid.

For a project already invested in the Python ecosystem, F# isn't going to even enter anyone's mind. Think of it as PyFL => Python as F# => C#.
