Not sure if there are multiple products called "Timelines" but I can access my timeline on maps.google.com just fine and it has all my latest data.

I feel you. I've written quite a lot of Common Lisp over the years and I've tried to show off its capabilities to co-workers, often in comparison to the language used that that job. Often I just get "huh, that's neat, no

I think the biggest issues involved around knowledge/skills/intelligence being potentially linked to genetics is that it often draws the eugenics proponents into the discussion and it's obvious how that conversation ends.

Even in binary you can see patterns. Not saying it's perfect to show binary diffs (but it is better than showing nothing) but I know even my slow mammalian brain can spot obvious human readable characters in various binary encoding for

Pure speculation but my guess is a specific state actor ahem is looking for developers innocently working with open source to then strongarm them into doing stuff like this.

Most editors these days should have "rename" functionality which is very aware of how that symbol is used across a codebase. M-x lsp-rename in emacs, for example works great, if you're using lsp.

I find the standard blackbox_exporter far too limiting and static so I wrote an exporter which queries DNS zones from the Google API and creates targets dynamically from that. It also has a feature which will query internal databases to fin

Not American but I can't stand using the toilet in places which don't have bidets. I feel disgusting and it ruins my day completely. I'd rather be uncomfortable and wait til I'm home or not go out.

I think this mostly comes down to whether applications can handle downtime if their workloads are restarted, scale up/down based on demand. It happens shockingly often that applications only support working with a single replica and ev

I wonder if it's related to the fact stoners are likely to go to bed on time.

That's just kicking the can over to an object storage API instead of managing disks.

https://victoriametrics.com/ would definitely recommend anyone having performance issues with Prometheus to give VictoriaMetrics a try.

My daughter is bilingual too. I wonder if that has something to do with it.

I need to read up more on this because in my extremely small sample size this kind of dual naming understanding came in really early with my daughter. I feel like it's a linguistic subtlety that us adults are struggling with conveying

I didn't even know "class inclusion" was a thing really. Though obviously the concept makes sense. My daughter had a solid grasp of it definitely around 16-18 months. She could easily talk about books or toys, cars, food, dri

Wrong. Just plain wrong. TVR back in the day was literally for British hooligans. The car was built on a small scale in Blackpool of all places to compete with much higher-end manufacturers. The fact that the end game for TVR was handled so

Interesting. I've been mulling around in my head a shell which embeds a Lisp. Well aware the idea isn't particularly ground breaking but I do love the idea of better languages embedded right within the shell, but not quite a REPL

I obviously can't speak for all engineers but I've certainly refused to work on dark patterns and explicitly told leadership why I believe they are dark patterns. I appreciate that not everyone has that luxury and ultimately it&#x

My honest hot take is that we made computers too easy to use. I appreciate how liberating computers and the internet can be for a lot of people but it has been far too easy to implement dark control through them.

Essentially zero people read complex commit messages. Do with this information what you will. 9/10 the code already is documentation enough for what the code currently does, if you need to go back through history then look at the commi

Not everything in emacs is written in elisp. I can tell you _for sure_ that turning off GC in emacs doesn't result in a runaway train of resident memory. You can be incorrect, or you can try it.
