Nut-based milks are a great alternative. Though just like veggie burgers, there are good and bad nut milks - look for ones without tons of additives. They are also trivial to make yourself.

But when all your apps stop working every time you install a major OS update, are you saying you would be happy to pay again? Because most people will whine like crazy.

Note that for mobile apps, paid upgrades aren’t really an option for developers due to the way the app stores work. Also, developers constantly need to update apps to be compatible with new OS releases. Only the subscription model aligns wi

I'm pretty sure there is plenty of 444 content. Movies are likely filmed/edited at 444, they are provided to theaters at 444, but they are generally only made available to consumers at 420. I believe the reason is that most hardwa

Chroma subsampling is a terrible idea in the digital era. You should just assign a different compression factor to the chroma channels instead. I don't understand why we keep using this system of discarding 75% of the color data BEFORE

“Doesn't choke on fast-flowing outputs” Nice to see a terminal addressing this issue. Even worse is when the output is super long and has no newlines. That can freeze up my whole desktop at work for minutes.

I’m not surprised there are a bunch of optimizations which could be made to “ls”. On a related note, I once looked at source code for “rm” (specifically “rm -rf”) and was surprised how inefficient it seemed. Not sure if it has changed since

It does seem odd that browsers don’t preload images for hover effects. I guess in practice most hover effects just use colors? Otherwise there’d be a noticeable lag the first time you hover or something.

It looks like the only safe way to use the Rule system is if you replace the query with exactly one new query. Basically what a view does. They should really deprecate all other forms. I’ve wasted time reading up on this feature several tim

If they supported foreign keys, I’m pretty sure I’d have used it many times. It seems like a good way to efficiently represent multiple distinct types which have some shared columns and some non-shared columns.

Agreed. I work on databases where column names are capitalized throughout our source code, and it’s annoying when sql like “SELECT FirstName FROM ...” gets output as “firstname”. This is one case where MySQL seems a bit better. Note if I co

For Records, can the public read accessor method be overridden? I'm assuming so, otherwise should just make the instance variable public final.

I always find the ArrayStoreException funny. I've written a lot of Java code over the years, including a fair bit pre-generics, and yet I don't believe I've ever triggered this exception.

Yes, I don't see how this MTA-STS avoids the DNS security issue. The system first uses a DNS TXT record to indicate a policy exists, then uses HTTPS to fetch that policy.

Note the trigger approach mentioned in the article would be terrible for performance in a concurrent environment, since only one transaction could modify the whole table at a time.

Can somebody explain why this couldn't be as simple as adding a DNS TXT entry which says to use TLS for a specific domain? Then add a large TTL on this DNS entry so it can be cached for a week or more. If it was that simple, I'd t

I sometimes wish there was an actual "TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE" type that stored the input timestamp as well. Basically, a version that didn't canonicalize the input by converting to UTC. This way, I can easily show timestamp

I learnt plenty in my CS courses. I just don’t use most of them, and most of the skills I do use I didn’t learn there. That does not mean it was a waste of time - knowing the theory behind various data structures, algorithms, and circuitry

The “security” of an algorithm is not defined as the duration of time required by a computer to brute force it. Much more important is how safe it is against other known or anticipated attacks.
