It doesn't matter if someone predicted some event, if they did it for the wrong reasons. Opposite is true as well, it matters more the way one reaches the conclusion, than the conclusion itself. Of course there are pragmatic exceptions

That won't help. I can get engrossed in a book/film/videogame I like. Most day-to-day task are not as interesting though. The problem is being able to concentrate on an activity that doesn't get you instant gratification

It is true, but it wasn't meant to be sound, so it's okay. You can do this trick for type-checking emptiness of string literals https://www.typescriptlang.org/play/?jsx=0#code/C4TwDgpgBAsg...

It is silly to grant agency and moral responsibility exclusively to people living within democracies. The Putin regime made an informal deal with the population "You stay out of politics and we're gonna stay out of your life"

I don't think this is true. As per wayland protocol docs ( https://wayland-book.com/seat/pointer.html ): > Using the wl_seat.get_pointer request, clients may obtain a wl_pointer object. The server will send event

Epoxy and brushes? Doesn't it use a special metal layer, and the laser high-heats the spots to make them amorphous (to write) and then low-heats them to crystallize (to erase)?

How do you guys solve the problem of conforming DB schema to TS interfaces (or vice versa depending on what you like)? Do you manually keep them in-sync (that's what I'm leaning into as the most practical solution)? Do you introsp

Editing hosts file seems unwieldy, and impossible on a phone without rooting it, AFAIK > split-horizon configuration Is it when your local router redirects media-server.mydomain.com to a local IP, and say Cloudflare DNS redirects it to y

Yes, but when you connect your phone to a Nebula network, and go to http://media-server in your browser, the DNS won't resolve it to your desired node, because the phone client (same on desktop) didn't update DNS of the

What about DNS integration? As far as I know, you can't resolve nodes by name (http://media-server), you have to use node's internal IP.

Please, share your method. I looked up an artist there (Dio), and then an album (Holy diver). Neither page helped me find "similar" music

But couldn't we do something about that as well? Couldn't drivers be built on some abstraction that would simplify some work? I have zero knowledge about this area though

The commercial domain name system is a perfect example of the type of artificial scarcity capitalism creates and exploits. Domain names are tiny little rows in a database. They cost next-to-nothing to set up and maintain. There’s abs

What about <permission> having browser-defined UI instead? A site needs to access the location, for example there's a button on the page, 'Show my location', which is wrapped in a <permission> tag. When the user h

Very interesting indeed. +1 for more explanations For example, in the "TV -> serial number" abstraction, if I were to define only one operation (checking whether two TV's are the same), would it make it a good abstraction,

Stretching 'currently available' a little, there's Roc lang [1]. Though still in development, you can use it for small personal projects. Another caveat is that it's a functional language, which could potentially hinder
