rahkiin··on Man pleads guilty to $8M AI-generated music scheme
False, this is only with Gmail. And not even true for Gmail workspaces.

Which is why it is not supported by the top 5 music distribution companies which have contracts with Spotify
rahkiin··on Astral to Join OpenAI
May I ask what OS and filesystem you’re using?
rahkiin··on Switzerland Built an Alternative to BGP
Well, SCION might not be open. No open standard, no IETF, no open source implementation, and its single commercial exploiter has patents on the technology: https://www.anapaya.net/news/path-selection-system-patent?hs...
rahkiin··on Poor Man's Polaroid
The whole ‘shoot with thinking’ is one of the values to me. On top of, of course, the direct printing.
rahkiin··on Making Video Games in 2025 (without an engine)
And most gameplay is written in Lua
rahkiin··on Inside the M4 Apple Neural Engine, Part 1: Reverse Engineering
They are also used by ML models that are deeply integrated in macos and ios without you knowing. Like object and text detection in images.
rahkiin··on Our Agreement with the Department of War
The first comma is ambiguous when reading it very precisely without prejudice.

It is a list of 4 items. This should not have been written like this to stand up nicely in courts and gives way to interpretation now.

rahkiin··on We're no longer attracting top talent: the brain drain killing American science
The comment used the past tense in every sentence
rahkiin··on GrapheneOS – Break Free from Google and Apple
Weird, because Wero is an internationalization of the dutch iDeal and that worked fine without any apps. You clicked ‘continue to bank’, select your bank, and then login on the bank web portal.
rahkiin··on GrapheneOS – Break Free from Google and Apple
That’s why for most transactions I do with a credit card in my country, you need an extra validation with the mobile app. It is mostly American websites that do not enable this functionality.
rahkiin··on LT6502: A 6502-based homebrew laptop
Given enough power and space efficiency you would start putting multiple cpus together for specialized tasks. Distributed computing could have looked differently
rahkiin··on Claude Code is being dumbed down?
Oh come on. That pays for more than 10 fte in some countries
rahkiin··on Why E cores make Apple silicon fast
I did. On equal hardware, in same order, with same windows version, on clean installs. ‘npm install’ is very file-heavy and Windows with corpware hates small files especially with the .js extension
rahkiin··on Why E cores make Apple silicon fast
My windows with corporate crap is sometimes 2000x slower than without corporate crap. And consistently 10x slower than an M3
rahkiin··on Microsoft forced me to switch to Linux
Same here. ng install takes 2000x as long as on my similairly priced mac. Installing a package for any language locks up the laptop for indexing
rahkiin··on Trump says Venezuela’s Maduro captured after strikes
Which might signal to the EU to not build local cloud infrastructure?
rahkiin··on Clicks Communicator
So you’d basically want what was the iPod Touch?
rahkiin··on Stardew Valley developer made a $125k donation to the FOSS C# framework MonoGame
Lua is awful for anything large. It is untyped, refactoring does not exist, etc. C# is an amazing language with amazing tools and very good libraries.
rahkiin··on CSS Grid Lanes
Have you considered using tables?

It is funny how we keep asking more and more and more even though we already have it so much better than before. Can we never be happy with what we have?

rahkiin··on Easel Now Has Stencils
How are you currently retrieving feedback on the language design? Have you worked with teenagers and parents on it?

I went through the demo on the first page and found it quite complex (but then I am stuck in existing patterns of course).

rahkiin··on Uncloud - Tool for deploying containerised apps across servers without k8s
Price. Data sovereignty. Legal. All are valid reasons to self-host
rahkiin··on Android and iPhone users can now share files, starting with the Pixel 10
I’ve been using AirDrop to send files between different mames of iOS phone and tablet for ages.
rahkiin··on V8 Garbage Collector
This example assumes 1fte=40 hours which is not nexessarily the case in all countries or under all collective agreements. 1fte can be 36, 38, or even 48 hours.
rahkiin··on XSLT RIP
What you say about google might be true. And its changes to android might be bad…

But that does not mean xslt should be kept alive just because of that. It should be judged on its own merits

rahkiin··on Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
There does not seem to be a way to configure anything though. It looks quite bad with the default zoom level and the toolbar…
rahkiin··on Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
This still needs cohesive authorization and central file sharing and access rules across apps. And some central concept of projects to move all content away from people and into the org and roles
rahkiin··on Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
This made me try it once more and I got something to work with some Blobs, resource URLs, sanitazion and iframes.

So I guess it is possible

rahkiin··on Why Nextcloud feels slow to use
I recently needed to show a pdf file inside a div in my app. All i wanted was to show it and make it scrollable. The file comes from a fetch() with authorzation headers.

I could not find a way to do this without pdf.js.
