encody··on Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
I'm doing my part! I added a "try Firefox" message to my website that appears only on Chromium-based browsers. https://geeklaunch.io/

Missed opportunity to call it Just

I don't know if you were trying to use it as a source for your claim, but the video you linked does describe and link to the exact textile color specification from the US government.

I'm not a vexillologist, just watched the video, so idk.

encody··on Show HN: If you have over 99 tabs in Firefox mobile, you will get an infinity
I simply set tabs to auto-close after one week.
encody··on Why I Left Rust
Everyone involved seems... petty and immature at worst, overly sensitive at best.

Conference organizers sucked at communication, both internally and with the speaker.

But the speaker doesn't take the affront in stride, instead choosing to make a stink on Twitter, complain, swear about a ruined weekend, and call people racist. Not the kind of professionalism I would expect from a prospective keynote speaker.

encody··on Databricks counts being laid off as “red flag”
That can be true, but it depends on the company. For example, sometimes layoffs are in order of seniority, so if you had the poor fortune of being the most recently hired, you are also first on the chopping block. I think it is probably not quite as black and white as you described.

> What is the difference between blue and blue?

> The difference between blue and blue is that they are two distinct colors. Blue is a primary color that is made up of a combination of red and green light, while blue is a secondary color that is made up of a combination of cyan and magenta light. Blue is usually considered to be a cooler, darker color while blue is usually considered to be a warmer, lighter color.

Meh.

encody··on Go Auth Lib
Disclosure: I don't work for FusionAuth or Clerk, or any of their direct competitors, but I figured I'd join the disclosure club.

I've been using Clerk for the past few weeks and it is an absolute breeze. Docs are easy to read and understand. They've prebuilt enough and the features they included are pretty useful (like organizations!). However, they annoy you with lots of emails. Pros and cons.

encody··on Half of Japan's LDP lawmakers had ties with Unification Church
You're technically correct, but I think that's a different definition of the word "cult" from the colloquial, and from what is being used above. Wikipedia's definition describes a cult as "unusual," "socially deviant," and "novel." I don't think Christianity fits that description in America.
