brianjacobs··on A Poor Man's API
Not to be mean, but from my reading this needs Heroku free tier which no longer exists? I am very sorry if I got that wrong.
brianjacobs··on Const vs. constexpr vs. consteval vs. constinit in C++20
In summary:

    constexpr variables are constant and usable in constant expressions

    constinit variables are not constant and cannot be used in constant expressions

    constexpr can be applied on local automatic variables; this is not possible with constinit, which can only work on static or thread_local objects

    you can have a constexpr function, but it’s not possible to have a constinit function declaration

This has been a problem when using Konqueror.

brianjacobs··on Crystal for Rubyists
I think this is an underrated response given that any crystal can start as a geode.
brianjacobs··on AI WordPress code snippet generator
Brian is very glad to see this. I am not your broker, but this contains three vulnerabilities that I can see. Seriously my dude/dudette, have you vetted this at all? I am no longer a pentester, but you have at least 2 ways to do RCE. Please don't post this again.
brianjacobs··on Linux on the laptop works so damn well that it’s boring
I have an L14 gen 2 amd thinkpad, and have had a ton of issues with the touchpad and occansional issues with the down key repeating for no reason. My wife has an E14 gen 3 amd thinkpad and absolutely no issues.

The future for linux on the laptop is here, just unevenly distributed.

Both on Fedora 36 KDE.

brianjacobs··on Show HN: Compass and Ruler construction problems as puzzle game
On Firefox ESR 102 on Debian testing, I could not complete part 3 of the tutorial where I had to make arcs of a circle. I even eventually filled in the circle entirely, but it won't recognize it as completed.
