They also have more to lose if they are wrong. They would have to admit they pushed something wrong for so long. So they need to double down.

Now follow up with: how many holes do trousers have?

A video call though isn't that mundane. Google Meet often has my cpu and fans spinning. I do prefer Zoom as it uses fewer resources. But of course, it will work on battery.

> Why not?

I find running on battery, lots of things are throttled or disabled. CPU is slower for example. That's probably a good reason for why not.

Anthropic safety is overboard. I tried the classic question of "how many holes does a straw have?" And it refused to talk about the topic. I'm assuming because it thought holes was sexual.

Who remembers delicious?

That was a good social bookmarking site. I wonder if anything similar exists now?

Some would say the Royal Family itself is a shield for the activities of pedophiles.

Are we allowed to say that now?

If you want outdoor stays your much better off using a large outdoor travel specialist sites like https://www.pitchup.com/

I fight complexity by trying to be lazy. The lazy solution is often the simplest, so go for lazy.

Cron that uses RRules would be nice.

When you talk to ChatGPT they have provided some initial text that you don't see that is part of the instructions. So chatgpt really sees:

- their instructions

- your instructions

But you only see your instructions.

Scatman says otherwise

If you are trying to branch prod (or even a staging db) then you can't

If you have lots of data, this can take some time

The appeal of this project is that it uses CoW (copy on write), so in theory it should be fast to copy as it only maintains writes.

That is true.

But careful the app developer that abuses this position, for they will more likely be the app I remove from my phone.

I don't know about you, 8% sounds a rounding error and probably within the error margins. It certainly wasn't enough to open the country en-mass like the OP believes.

And now we have the opposite situation with those who have had the most boosters and now more likely to catch the new variant that is out.

Good thing you're 100% convinced, I'm still looking for the proof

Google has this. You can make notification types as silent or normal or priority. Notifications from the same app have groupings of what type of notifications they will send. And you pick which ones you want to be notified about.

Having sequential ID's is more than just a security risk, it's an information risk. Competitors can use them to estimate the size of your business, the number of customers you have, and all sorts of stuff.

This was used in the war to estimate the number of German tanks based on the sequential IDs

So just for business intelligence you don't want to leak your IDs.

Wow, this article really struck a chord with me. I totally get the frustration with mainstream UI frameworks, but let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater. These frameworks have their limitations, sure, but they've also pushed web development forward in a big way. The author suggests going back to the DOM API and creating a custom JS API, but that's just asking for more complexity and manual work. Mainstream UI frameworks have abstracted away a lot of that complexity and given us convenient tools for building interfaces.

And yeah, I know everyone loves to hate on the syntax and approach of frameworks like React, Vue, Svelte, and Angular. But guess what? They've been widely adopted and proven effective in real-world scenarios. They provide a familiar syntax and conventions that make collaboration and code maintenance easier. Instead of completely dismissing these frameworks, let's focus on improving them while staying open to new ideas.

I get it, some folks prefer alternatives like XAML/Silverlight/WPF or Android with Jetpack Compose. And hey, those technologies may have their advantages too. But before we jump ship, let's carefully evaluate the pros and cons of each option. Consider community support, learning curve, performance, and scalability.

At the end of the day, there's no one-size-fits-all solution in web development. We need to understand our project requirements and make informed choices. Let's keep learning and adapting to new technologies while respecting the merits of existing solutions.

What about frameworks like htmx though?

While they may not be as widely known as React or Angular, they offer a different approach to building dynamic web applications. htmx focuses on enhancing server-rendered HTML with minimal JavaScript, allowing for a more progressive enhancement approach.

By leveraging existing HTML and server-side logic, htmx can provide a simpler and more lightweight solution for certain use cases. It's definitely worth exploring and considering htmx as an alternative when evaluating framework options.

However, it's important to note that the adoption and community support for htmx might not be as extensive as some of the more mainstream frameworks. This can impact factors such as available resources, documentation, and community-driven improvements.

Ultimately, it all comes down to understanding the specific needs and goals of your project. Consider the trade-offs involved, evaluate the resources and community support available, and make an informed decision based on what aligns best with your requirements.

I have not eaten fibre for many years. It's one of those overhyped health things. Fibre is not needed at all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqUO4P9ADI0

It does help I guess if you eat so much sugar and fibre helps mop it up and digest it slowly. But the solution isn't to eat more fibre, it's to eat less or no sugar.

A body can survive without glucose and burn fat for energy instead.

Is this another case where science got the causation and correlation backwards? Is it not more likely that depressed people eat processed food rather then the other way around?

Could you not timestamp your message and then let the client do the ordering. Granted they might get messages out of order, but I never promised them their webhooks would be in order.

It feels the same thing happens with humans.

Could one not still do voter coercion and vote selling using the existing postal vote system?

You get people to do a postal vote, and they show you what they are voting for and you pay them, take away the ballot and post it yourself (or threaten them and do the same thing)

You could say you wrote the source code for the cracker, but you did not distribute the pirated software, that was someone else.

He commented on that comment, it wasn't the crack.

> This gets better - Razor's crack is fine, the reason both Midnight Club 2 and Manhunt crashed when these cracks were in use was the fact that Steam DRM included a .bind section that was code not marked as code - thus tripping Data Execution Prevention

This doesn't account that software is (relatively) easy to change, vs say building a house (to use a cliche). The client will want to see it as it progresses, and then change based on what they have learned is possible. This is the agile way.

How would one account for a fixed cost then? Do you say ok it's a fixed cost, and you get 6months base on our estimate (but if the 6months has finished the contract ends, and isn't that just a time based project). Or do you tell the client no changes after the initial requirements (which doesn't sound flexible and you end up building something the client doesn't want)?

Does that include children in the population?

Anyone know of any good books on how to grow a software company?
