Or replace Defender with a faster AV product. Defender has always been massively impactful on file operations.

Javascript's single thread is an event loop. If the code is written correctly, it should not be holding anything else up to do I/O. That can be dispatched to run asynchronously, and when the data is ready the event loop will call

Looks like you're right. The first time you try clicking it shows a message telling you to use the keyboard to navigate and then flashes the list of keyboard controls. I didn't try clicking again after that.

Same feelings about it here. The font actually looks pretty nice, but I won't be using it because that website is utter garbage. I take no issue with the creator taking the time to code up a cute terminal-like interface, but there abso

I hate that... but actually less so than I hate Pandas' abuse of operator overloading on the indexing operator.

For some reason, even with the UCRT, binaries seem overly bloated. I've been toying with Zig over the past couple weeks and I really like that it doesn't rely on a C runtime on Windows. Plus it makes it easy to operate entirely wi

And modern panels will likely look better in motion with faster pixel response times than older panel tech.

I want to know if it can be done such that it performs just as well as the original on the original hardware.

If only. There's a ticket open with Microsoft's PowerToys to improve the anti-aliasing situation: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/25595 And heres an explanation from the dev of MacType

Did you even read the context around that? Everyone involved in the scene described was Bangladeshi. And the point of writing it like a dramatic scene in a movie is made clear in the giant quote and paragraph that follow: it was law enforc

I wish they all supported arbitrary pixel layouts. My QD-OLED has a triangular layout that leads poor looking text no matter what ClearType settings are selected. (Between GDI and DirectWrite, the font rendering system in Windows is a mess)

The combination of the depictions of nerds vs jocks in 80s and 90s media plus this huge overcorrection on toxic masculinity really fucked with me hard. I thought that nerd and jock was a hard line, that I had to actively avoid anything spor

I expected this to be tough, but it was even tougher than that! I treated it purely as an exercise in classifying what is a vehicle and what it means to be in the park. Skateboards really tripped me up because I don't think of roller s

Fully agreed on this. The simple, default way of doing anything should be able to be undone. Hell, years ago Google even figured out how to give people an undo button on email! Yes, it's just a simple time delay but it makes such a hug

That is interesting! I could see that make learning it easier since it's closer to addition if you carry instead of borrow. Though one advantage I see to the borrow is, since you're modifying the minuend, you have room to write th

What the author is saying about remembering the math vs the illustration took me a second to get. The discs should probably be rotated slightly to make it more obvious that the axis you're flipping over when you take the bitwise not re

He's not arguing about how common it is in practice for people to choose inheritance vs composition. This line seems to make that pretty clear: > But despite the fact that many programmers out there have gone through bad phases like

In case you're serious, just go right to left, digit by digit. 7 - 3 = 4: 8 4 6 7 - 4 5 8 3 ------------- 4 6 is less than 8, so borrow from the next digit. 16 - 8 = 8: 8 3 16 7

It's not even a technique limited to browsers. When I did Android development years ago it was a technique used in native list controls to reduce the overhead of them. Though in that case, there's no search based on what's be

The limitations of the borrow checker when it comes to borrowing self are annoying. I've had cases where I just said "screw it" and copied the body of a function inline in the 1 or 2 places it was being called just to make th

But that's not your code, that's your employer's code. You might have written it but they fully own it. This doesn't seem like something to be concerned about on their behalf.

It's not even very obvious what won't arc. FreshDirect sells pre-cooked turkey burgers. They come in a metal container with the edges bent over in a way to allow a plastic lid to snap on. Their official cooking instructions stay t

Not sure why the writer of this article is concerned about paywalling. That's already a thing. If you support someone on Patreon, it can come with the benefit of being able to join a subscriber-only Discord server. And you can have rol

Skype was also clearly not designed for the kinds of uses that fit with how larger groups operate. All your text chat was in one mega chat for the group and that group was also bound to a single call. Splitting up conversations, whether voi

The [0..n] slicing is what I was surprised to not see being done. As for what you're suggesting, using from_utf8 adds a overhead to check that you're giving it valid UTF-8 (this does not get optimized away). Dipping into unsafe ca

This seems to be the one to try. Gitless appears to be abandoned. And I like this idea of having an alternate model of interaction with git. It seems to fit well within the git design of having common plumbing and being able to swap out the
