I see, we are trying to re-establish ownership over the em-dash. This brings me joy.

This is specifically about good UX not about security, validation, or sanitisation.

I genuinely don't know if the people who keep doing this are just stupid, unreasonably contrarian, or intentionally trying to sound unreasonable (and are in favour of the UK style approach) to weaken the apparent position of being agai

Still remember when people mostly referred to them as "quadcopters."

I don't agree with the analogy, but let's run with it for a second anyway. Sending a mangled `text/plain` part in a `multipart/alternative` (when you could simply omit it) is the email equivalent of having a store that a

Are you using a phoscon coordinator? ConBee 2 has a lot of firmware problems in my experience. There are also some devices which advertise ZigBee compatibility but the manufacturers don't seem to test them against coordinators other th

Why would it need to measure input to frame latency? Surely it just needs to measure how long it takes the game to go from vsync period to frame ready and delay when the game thinks vsync happened to force it to poll later in the cycle?

I didn't mean it completely literally. But presumably you have an idea for a post outline: * Title * Brief * Table showing the issue * Notes about CSS/JS disparity * An idea for why it happens. * The idea/code for a solution.

It takes less time to write the prompt, you could just publish that? It's an important topic, and I am glad you wrote about it, but even half a page of notes would have been enough to convey this. It would save me literally skim readin

Look, it's pretty clear to me that you're either not reading half of what I write, or choosing to ignore it. I am not particularly interested in speaking to a wall. > I claim nothing about "bare bones", so, again, you

Okay, so I have an object like: User { name friends: List<Friend> posts: List<Post> } Let's say we have a "MappedUser" which is derived from this type by this ORM. I now do:

by Arch-TK 2mo ago
First, it's useful to define terms. When I talk about an ORM I talk about an ideal ORM which transparently maps ordinary object graph access patterns to relational database queries. These do exist, and they exhibit the OR mismatch prob

by Arch-TK 2mo ago
A query builder is not an ORM. ORMs build queries for you, but a query builder does not need to be an ORM.

by Arch-TK 2mo ago
There are rather concrete problems that strictly prevent it from being possible to efficiently map graph (object) database access patterns to a relational database. It's not a matter of "fractional speed difference" unless yo

It's okay, completely wrong thread for this statement, but I wouldn't voluntarily use current MacOS (no idea if the older variants weren't terrible) over anything but ssh. Worse than Windows 11.

When I tried implementing something like this at some point, I found it impossible to actually implement reliably because DNS resolution changes all the time. Unless you dynamically add rules as you resolve DNS requests and before respondin

If you have a thermoblock espresso machine, the brewing part can be over and done with in all of 1 minute. But either way, the time consuming parts are preparation and cleanup.

I don't really care about a ban like this, but I do strongly care about exactly how they plan to enforce it. There are technical solutions which are both inexpensive, would be just as effective, and which would fully respect the privac

Not yet, but for a long time nobody spent years in court because they were particularly rude to nobody in particular on the internet, and then it happened, and the law was there all along.

It's gaming communities too. There is a massive mindset overlap between gamers and average UK residents. They both think that all the dystopia is for the greater good, is never abused, and if you fall victim to it, you must have been d

No, just the UK. I actually think it might be worse. You need to be able to hand over encryption keys too. Claiming to not know them is also not allowed, whether you actually know them or not. I am reasonably convinced that if you wipe the

I mean, yes, the lace quality is important too. But strictly speaking, not tying a granny knot will improve your results regardless of choice of lace.

This seems equivalent to some arguments I hear for practicing a religion.
