"Keep running" is interesting phrasing, given that wayback has been serving me nothing but some mix of timeouts, 429 errors, and "Temporarily Offline" messages for weeks.

Mostly a good complete list... One thing I'd take issue with though is no clean flux for hand soldering. "No clean" formulations are almost universally designed for reflow oven temperature profiles and may not actually meet

That probably means the board was being designed a year or two before that... so quite possibly they had put it in the design when it still seemed relevant and the cost/hassle/delay of a new revision of the board design and manufa

I really don't get the curved monitors for working. They're fine if you're playing a video game or watching a movie in the dark at home, I guess, but wouldn't want one for other uses. They are wider than is comfortable t

Yeah, I'd second a recommendation of at least the first two volumes of Write Great Code. I've long suggested those to juniors who have come out of bootcamps, self-taught, or other backgrounds outside a typical CS degree and didn&#

Doesn't this also use its own app and services? The only "open" part of it I saw in the docs was that there's an sdk to write your own app that runs on the watch. Better than nothing, i guess, but not quite what I was ho

I don't think they were saying that there aren't reasons to not use github, in or out of the USA, but rather that codeberg was already not a contender for many use cases due to their existing rules restricting private/non-OSS

The unihertz titan series is decent for a more modern option. It's a blackberry style keyboard instead of the slide out type, which is a bit of a shift, but still pretty usable.

They clearly must have the records if they have the ability to retroactively revoke access to it, as they must know who had the access to revoke. Perhaps the user needs to update their payment method to get the refund, or like everyone else

My 2c is that I'm not judging the parents, I'm judging the outputs I've seen of people raised on phones...and that's something that impacts everyone in our society. If you think you can do better, I guess go for it, but

Yup, came to say this. Kids have learned to walk places on their own without maps or satnav or tracking for hundreds of thousands of years. I believe everyone would benefit from that continuing. We don't teach kids that the only way to

It's not common that they miss those timed delivery windows, in my experience... but when they do their systems don't seem to be able to handle it well and the delay is far worse than it would have been if it _weren't_ a time

Not a full password reset, but I've seen this on some sites even recently for 2FA... more than one poorly implemented SMS 2FA prompt has asked me what number I want to receive a confirmation code at to prove it's me. :facepalm:

I suppose, but I guess the quality of voice narration I've heard is still closer to "realistic robot" than anything.

They demonstrate a correlation, but not causation. In fact they point out the reverse is likely true, too, that people more likely to die by gun might want to keep a gun at home. What you call "sophistry" others might consider &qu

First, it's a bit of a silly cliché, but a true one, that guns don't kill people, people kill people. The way you've phrased it, even aside from the facts, makes it feel like FUD implying that someone's gun is going to c
