psnehanshu··on A big win for Android interoperability
Then the OS developer will simply make these "apps" part of the OS.
psnehanshu··on Debug Project
That's kind of out of character for Google. Their motto is to organize world's information, not cure diseases.
psnehanshu··on Debug Project
Why does the website have Google branding at the bottom? Is it a Google project or associated with Google somehow?
psnehanshu··on Bring Your Agent to Teams
Slack is a different kind of hell now with their sales-force
psnehanshu··on Android now stops you sharing your location in photos
You can signup for private adguard dns, then you should be able to whitelist domains.
psnehanshu··on Android now stops you sharing your location in photos
Or you can set your DNS resolver to dns.adguard-dns.com and it blocks almost all ads. You can search "private dns" in Android settings app and set it there.
psnehanshu··on What came first: the CNAME or the A record?
Warnings are ignored. It's much better to fail fast.
psnehanshu··on jQuery 4
There's also React Native Web
psnehanshu··on Zuck#: A programming language for connecting the world. And harvesting it
Or atleast should have been Hack
psnehanshu··on Linux kernel security work
TCP ensures what gets sent on one side gets received on the other side. TLS just encrypts the data. So even without TLS, random corruptions won't happen unless someone does MITM attack.
psnehanshu··on IPv6 just turned 30 and still hasn't taken over the world
It is already possible using the Host header and TLS SNI. But traffic still flows through port 443.
psnehanshu··on Replacing JavaScript with Just HTML
You can't. It's only supposed to be used for a limited list.
psnehanshu··on We pwned X, Vercel, Cursor, and Discord through a supply-chain attack
Well that's how SPAs work (single page applications)
psnehanshu··on SQLite as an Application File Format
I see no downside in using sqlite as an application file format.
psnehanshu··on Why is Zig so cool?
I even forget which word means what, "open", "close"
psnehanshu··on Aggressive bots ruined my weekend
What if it was proxied through mobile network on an unsuspecting user's phone? You risk of blocking a whole city or region.
psnehanshu··on After nine years of grinding, Replit found its market. Can it keep it?
When I hear Replit, I remember how the CEO tried to kill an intern's pet project.

psnehanshu··on Where it's at://
It says "HTTP redirects (eg, 301, 302) are allowed, up to a reasonable number of redirect hops."
psnehanshu··on Where it's at://
Let's say I need to resolve @example.com and we use the HTTPS GET method. So we will query https:// example.com/.well-known/atproto-did

Will it work if that link redirects to says https:// example.com/did.txt or even to a different host say https:// foo.bar/some/thing/did?

psnehanshu··on IP over Lasers
Increase my understanding
psnehanshu··on IP over Lasers
I was vibe researching TUN/TAP devices a few days ago. Cool to see such cool projects using them. I was mostly thinking about making a VPN prototype through.
psnehanshu··on Britain to introduce compulsory digital ID for workers
Which means they are already a "pointer" to a record in a centralised database.
psnehanshu··on When Bruce Lee trained with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Yeah, that's "Master Master", just like Chai Tea, which means "Tea Tea" and East Timor, which means "East East".
psnehanshu··on Open Social
And if Justin's pds goes down, then his followers won't be able to consume his content.
psnehanshu··on Open Social
You mean you want to host the personal repositories (PDS) for your users?
psnehanshu··on Open Social
imo ActivityPub sounds better than ATProto, hence people assume the former is superior. This is a branding issue.
psnehanshu··on YAML document from hell (2023)
Yup, author made RCL
psnehanshu··on YAML document from hell (2023)
IMO means "in my opinion", or if you were being sarcastic, putting /s helps.
psnehanshu··on "Your" vs. "My" in user interfaces
Older Windows had "My Computer" icon on the desktop, now they have "This PC".
psnehanshu··on Gemini (2023)
