Even the part about countermeasures appears to be BS. The request has the HN referrer which makes it trivial to identify. Also, weirdly, they're still sending the full content of the page when they get that referrer. I didn't even

Ah that makes sense. I don't pay close enough attention to the mid tier or the low end. I'm sure I saw at some point that there were problems with those cards but it's hard to remember when it doesn't stand out because p

I checked a sampling of a few games there and the only one where it's not ahead by a solid margin at 2560x1440 is Far Cry 6... the game that I gave up trying to play because it would not run smoothly on my 3090 + 5900X even with the se

Poor performance uplift? The 4080 is significantly faster than the 3090 with much lower power consumption!

I didn't expect an announcement of the Supers this early in the year, nor did I expect them to be cheaper than the non-Super cards. I bought the 4080 recently with the thought that Nvidia's trend in the past 4 or 5 years has bee

There's still other things that are absurd to do under Linux. Like turning off write caching for removable drives. Unless something has changed in the past couple years, you need to either manually edit fstab per-drive or setup udev ru

I had a similar issue where I didn't get the renewal failure emails. Fortunately no one else grabbed the domain, but there was a window of a week where someone could have! I still use my own domain for my email, but I can't help b

I should also apologize. I was over-aggressive in my response. Just ticks me off to see a comment that seems like it's defending messing with property of others (which you actually didn't imply, but instead I inferred it).

You need laws to stop you from being a shitbag, messing with other peoples' stuff? The person you're replying to was also careful to say you are morally responsible. That has nothing to do with legal issues.

When I first learned to program at John's Hopkins CTY class back in middle school (~2002), we learned on C++. We didn't wait long to get to pointers because we learned not just how to get the computer to do what we wanted but also

That's really the key. Most people don't need to care. Bluesky is nice and easy for their needs. They just use the bsky.app website and the official Bluesky phone app. This is in contrast to Mastodon where people were told to pick

What's wild is that the same people who call it a growth hack also acknowledge that the waitlist isn't limiting growth and overall interest.

Would you prefer the company that owns the device burn something like this into UEFI to handle MDM instead?

That or make him try to maintain his own code a year later when it may as well have been written by someone else. This is really the only way to properly understand the problem with making all those abstractions. It all makes sense when you

Oh this looks like it could be what I was looking for a couple months ago. I wanted something like Calibre that could store the database on a server while properly handling multiple clients. Definitely going to try Librum out.

It's hard to see in the first set of images, but the second set is much clearer. In the WebP example, look to the right of the subject, about 1/6th of the image's width from the right edge. There's a hard transition betw

The Weather app in Windows 11 a UWP .NET Native wrapper around WebView2 controls. It's exceptionally silly that it's basically just a web browser with predefined tabs and that it uses so much RAM, but it's not Electron.

I don't know how the Blue Yeti continues to get so much praise. i got one years ago when the hype was especially fresh. People were using it over their headset mics for comms while gaming but I swear there is no way anyone who recommen

Hyperlink support? Hell yes! This has been such a frustration of using terminal tools to search in files. I love that the vscode format even linkifies by matched line. Thanks for this update burntsushi!

I looked into making a source generator over using reflection and quickly gave up on it. I swear it's easier to directly generate function implementations at runtime by emitting IL than to process the syntax tree.

You just need to install the Native Debugging Support plugin into IntelliJ. I recently switched from having all the language specific apps installed to centralizing on IntelliJ IDEA. As far as I can tell, that plugin gives you all the same

I'm so glad HomeKit exists because without it I'm positive the vast majority of "smart" home devices wouldn't support any kind of local connectivity.

I was about to say there needs to be a tool that accounts for all these metrics and generates a summary with a score, but then I realized that if a rating algorithm is out in the open, people will game it.
