This is awesome. Does anyone know if there is a library for the amazing optical codes that apple uses in its device transfer? I know they have a custom patent for it so I don't know if its something anyone has tried to recreated...

Sorry, I'm unfamiliar with PLT what does stand for?

Agree, in fact this wonderful book calls this out, stating: As DuckDB is an analytics database, it has only minimal support for transactions and parallel write access. You therefore couldn’t use it in applications and APIs that process

You’re maybe right, but does that mean the language should be hostile to those that don’t write well designed code?

Not saying you’re wrong, but what are you proposing as an alternative? How should comprehensive knowledge be tested? Weekly homework/projects? P.s. love the user name.

Just going off the trick above would t it just be: 23 x 10 - 23 = 230 - 23 = 207... I guess I’m confused what point you’re making?

This really is great to see, but it’s clear from their careful wording that the google takedown of the recent widevine l3 repository won’t be reversed: > And our reinstatement, based on new information that showed the project was not cir

Notion tables are WAY more powerful than markdown tables... You can configure views, filtering, sorting, summary’s, and foreign keys with roll ups.... That’s not something trivial to build, however I’d be pleasantly surprised if obsidian ev

Slightly off topic, are fines even the right approach to get better behavior? What incentive structure does they encourage? I fear it encourages you to hide or down play an incident, if possible, when issues do happen. Instead you’d rather

This is neat! Good work. Was any of this inspired by Zola? https://www.getzola.org/documentation/getting-started/overvi... I’ve used Zola and love the build speed and power that it has. My only real complaint is c

I’d be much more receptive to the IRS getting more resources if we also address the insane complexity that is our tax code. Given how many weird loopholes it contains it’s no wonder that they don’t have enough horsepower to compete with the

Any chance this change was related to the recent scraping decision from the Supreme Court (I think) against linked in? Maybe this is to prevent people scraping content front public pages. That and as others have mentioned I’m sure they’d lo

I switched to Alacritty+tmux on macOS about 2 months back. The only complaint I have is a tmux one (nested tmux sessions suck.) Curious, what are the limits you see with having to use tmux?

Thanks! That does make sense, and it’s entirely fascinating to think about! Does anyone know what this area of study is called?

Does their brain consciously drive the control of their cell pigment/color ability, or is it something more subconscious/reactive/instinctive? Seems like the brain has to be involved to coordinate... I wonder what the closest

My understanding is that we're not totally certain if all black holes form from stellar mass black holes. There is a theory that black holes can form from direct collapse. In this case, as I understand it, it can skip the star phase an

Absolutely painless. The “worst” part is having to drink enough water (with laxative and electrolytes) to clean your system for a clear view. I just had mine done and I was way more more anxious then I needed to be. Now I feel silly for bei

Yes. Thank you! From my experience multi-repo doesn’t make problems go away, it just defers them and introduces others. I’m not against multi-repo or a strong proponent of monorepos... each have their strengths and drawbacks and there is a

I’m not sure I understand what branching monotonically means, could you explain that? I’m not disagreeing with you - but is this something that can be done with googles monorepo? And when would I want to do so?

I agree. I will say the price was at a point that I didn’t even have to think about it at 1$/month. I looked at the features, signed up promptly, and wired up a custom domain. The only thing I’m not excited about is rotating all my em
