do you have the Annoyances filters enabled? most of them are filtered on my end
there is also this you can enable with 1 click if you've got ublock already: https://github.com/yourduskquibbles/webannoyances

Two options from the top of my head:
1. you have email forwarding configured so received mails will be delivered to another account. That's generally configured in the settings of the provider (I.e. directly under account settings in Gmail iirc)
2. You have a logged in device which receives mails through an application password. You cannot read it out because it's masked and even if you could, it wouldn't help you because it's only allowed to receive mails, not login.
I don't think this is particularly rare, honestly.
But yes, it is obnoxious.
that very much depends of how the function is called. there are a lot of ways I've encountered in the wild which wouldn't be found by this.
currently it would be 1.5k+€, but thats because of the silicon shortage and scalpers. and fwiw, a ps5 was going for 1.4k just a few month ago too.
GDPR handles all kinds of data related to a person, so yes: a username is personal data wrt GDPR
personally identifiable information (PII) on the other hand is only a subset of data handled by the general data protection regulation (GDPR)
This might clear that up https://techgdpr.com/blog/difference-between-pii-and-persona...
If it was, ycombinator would have to adhere to much more stringent regulation wrt them.
its not PII as long as its impossible to link it back to a unique identification from the real world such as a name, social security number or similar.
so my previous blanket statement of IP addresses not being PII is slightly exaggerated, they can be, but they rarely are.
most people access the internet either with dynamic ip addresses or from a corporations internet providers. people that have a static ip address on a private landline and without a NAT are rare, which is why generally speaking, IP addresses aren't PII.
it does become PII if the person in question has a static ip address and is the only person using this connection.
the natural person is the link to a real name. it only becomes PII if its somehow possible to link a real name or similar to this identifier. If this is impossible, it will never be PII, even if it identifies a single individual.
A unique identifier which let's them track a user everywhere isn't either if there is no way to match this id to a real name etc
They will likely still need to disclose this tracking (ianal), but the identifier used to track the visits isn't PII
But if it was, it most likely would be enough anyway if the salt isn't stored anywhere. An irreversible hash of data is enough anonymization
Other frameworks generally combine multiple properties with their classes.
It is a very different design choice with it's own up and downsides but equating it to bootstrap is just silly.
It's more realistic to compare it to directly setting style attributes on html tags then bootstrap, but that wouldn't let you use responsive modifiers/dark mode nor be as concise.
RxJS is just one of the implementations [1] and people that haven't grokked it would struggle with other project utilizing it as well - even if its a React frontend, Go backend etc. (and as others have pointed out: angular should not be considered a poster-child of reactive programming. they made it work somehow, but its really easy to get memory leaks even if you're just copy-pasting code from the official angular docs)
Because the former is really hard to imagine with what you claim to be proficient in.
The reactive stuff from rxjs is another story though, few people I know really worked with any of the reactive libraries before and mostly everyone I know struggled with the concepts at first, no matter which language they were using them in
it will be interesting to see how fast they'll grow.
not in my experience. there are often people around that only do 25-35hours per week... at least in the places I've worked at 'till now.
> Open source might be the right avenue for this type of freedom
with open source, you're always an outside contributor. That might be enough for some - but I doubt that my motivation could keep up long term in that setting.
I think for me personally a 4-6h workday on 4 days per week would be optimal. It's enjoyable to actually work together with a team on a product and provide a service which people want to use.
Such part time jobs can be very fulfilling if money is not an issue.
I was using a Netcup root server with 2 dedicated cores/8gb ram before i switched to my current hetzner baremetal server. It only cost ~7€ per month, so much better value if i you don't mind that everything just takes a little longer.
i dont think i'll ever go back though. even using the shell on the baremetal server is so much more responsive vs the vps.
but for what its worth: you can get a VPS with similar resources (16 cores, 64gb ram, 2tb ssd) for 40€ with netcup.
The speed is incredible if compared to ec2 or root server performance from other vendors. Even if they've dedicated resources.
My guess is that very few watchers would prefer a 3d reenactment over the 2d original stream, as the reenactment will always have less details or even show things incorrectly.
The (sad) reality is that all pc games have been heavily optimized to run on Windows, which does create a pretty big performance difference which favors windows.
I prefer Linux for productivity work myself, but saying that it generally runs games better is just lying and setting people up for disappointment.
let me repeat what i said earlier: i don't think that the current generation of consumer headsets is ready for prime time, all of the reasons are however solvable. that's why i used the cop-out of "at least 10 years off".
theoretically i can use it indefinitely without getting a headache. It however always feels like a slap in the face if even the smallest hiccup or framedrop happens. Another thing thats hard to stomach is movement done by controller. Its (for me) doable while sitting down, but if i stand up while moving with the controller... lets just say i usually stop within 5 minutes if i'm forced to do that.
the low pixel density on consumer headsets make it hard to consider them for anything but casual gaming usage, even though I think that VR-Headset gaming will always be a pipe-dream. It would be a different story if fantasy-style VR Capsule ever become a thing, letting the player also have touch etc, but the First Person View that current games try use is in my experience just too lacking with a purely visual headset, especially with the poor input quality like we have today.
The potential I see in VR Headsets is really in productivity while sitting in front of a desk using a regular mouse and keyboard. 8k displays would be a minimum for that and once you target that market new designs become viable again, as few people would want to wear such a headset directly on their face. Letting in your surroundings will be less of an issue if it's not aiming for complete isolation/immersion and onboard graphics will likely be less of an issue if the device doesn't have to render a complex video game scene.
Google is responsible for alphabets web services. Check out Wikipedia for actual examples like waymo (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alphabet_Inc.)
Professional headsets will likely become more widespread over the coming years and I fully expect that most desk jobs will replace their displays with a headset... But that's still at least 10 yrs off, likely longer. A prerequisite would be that it's not as stuffy/heavy to wear, but that's already happening at a surprising rate.
It also makes remote contacts (i.e. remote work, family calls etc) very different, as oculus just added face tracking to their newest headsets... So your avatars face mirrors your real face.
The presence you feel in these contexts is hard to explain and has to be experienced imo.
That's how it probably should be, but in my experience it rarely is. Generally, businesses decide that they need to re-/implement x, then the enterprise architect shows up and decides on the pattern and then the developers are required to somehow make it work, even if it objectively doesn't.
Please remember that this is a forum of a very big group of participants with varying points of view and resulting opinions.
Even if he was previously a person that said golang doesnt need generics, I struggle with your point of view. It seems you're of the opinion that nobody should be allowed to... change their opinion? Or at least has to be continuously told that they're dumb because they held an opinion that turned out to be incorrect? We're all people and make mistakes/have incorrect assumptions about topics, why not just accept that and move on?
You might want to refocus on what kind of person you want to be, because both of your comments come off as very hostile
It's true that the indexeddb access is faster then a 3g signal with timeout, but that wasn't happening often enough to warrant slowing down all other requests measuribly just to speed up the rare case when this occurs.
Loading from indexeddb generally took about 100-200ms, loading data over WLAN/4g from a remote server (~500km real life distance) over socket took < 50ms overall for multiple json payloads with about 200 serialized entities altogether.
And doing both at the same to serve whatever finished first wasn't worth the trade for me either, as the indexeddb access isn't cheap from a energy drain perspective either.
Other people might come to different conclusions depending on their challenges.
