Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. As you said, Ireland might comply, which would’ve solved this particular issue.

If they put an ID on a sanction list, there’s a possibility to verify it. They could verify that it actually belongs to the person they want to sanction before putting it on the list. Failing that, the actual person can prove that they don’

You’re talking about different things. Sweden has personal identity numbers and they’re public information. It protects you from being mixed up with someone with the same name. Not from identity theft though.

I assume that’s why Altman wants the government as a co-owner.

I’ve only used Opus in GitHub copilot and was hugely underwhelmed. It was barely usable. Are you saying it’s better with the official Anthropic tools?

Sure, from a theoretical perspective, but in practice there’s got to be some sort of order at some point even when storing timespans.

You could also make the price column nullable and just insert a row with price null and the date from which there should be no price.

Why are they storing a time period (start and end date) in the first example? Why not just store the date when the price comes into effect? That would make both overlaps and time travel impossible without using any constraints.

By that logic VPNs and many other technical solutions are also not solving technical problems, since it is theoretically possible to achieve the same results by other means.

Just use array_values() and suddenly you can use int indicies again.

Yeah, at the moment we use arrays as anonymous objects and phpdoc+phpstan to verify the types, but I want it in the language. PHP already supports intersection and union types, it really feels like just skipping the naming part and going al

I've been writing PHP for 20 years now. It's my bread and butter. The one thing I really wish PHP would add is structurally typed objects. I really miss it when moving back and forth between PHP and TypeScript. They could call the

I don’t think AI demand is driven by consumers.

What a great blog post! I have wanted to do rootless docker with subuids, but putting it all together like you have is not easy. Thank you for writing it down!

My comment was a bit tongue in cheek. Obviously it is a hard problem. But in a profession where we work with machines that literally were made to crunch numbers, and where abstraction is something we deal with daily, why can’t we have a per

I don’t understand how dealing with numbers correctly is not a solved problem in computer engineering by now.

I remember now what the problem was. I was instantiating a new ArrayList in a loop. The solution to the performance issue was to use a Vector instead. I was used to just writing PHP arrays when I wanted a list of something, and since they’r

I remember writing Java for our introductory programming course at university around 2010. I was already familiar with object oriented programming in PHP at the time, so I just wrote the Java code like I would write PHP. I was absolutely as

Maybe I’m just dense, but it says the fs module is fully supported, so what happens when I try to read a file from disk if the app is fully sandboxed?

I can really relate to this. At the same time I’m not convinced cycle time always trumps throughput. Context switching is bad, and one solution to it is time boxing, which basically means there will be some wait time until the next box of t

WASM is kind of like Java bytecode, right? A compilation target which requires a runtime? But better sandboxed?

It’s still possible to order new and original parts for SAAB models, almost 20 years after they went under. The spare parts are made by a separate company which is still going.

Human eyes are much better than cameras at dealing with dynamic range. They’re also attached to a super-computer which has been continuously trained for many years to determine distances and classify objects.

There seems to be a huge business opportunity in Europe right now, to sell support and customization of open source software to government players. Has anyone heard about a European company that’s been successful in this area?

On the other hand, many things attributed to chance are actually the aggregate effect of other people's choices. If we make choices based on not just what's best for ourselves but what's best for all of us, we will all sudden

Nice to only have to push the layers that changed. For me it's been enough to just do "docker save my-image | ssh host 'docker load'" but I don't push images very often so for me it's fine to push all laye

Sure, but TOTP still defends against password leakage. So it’s still more secure than only using a password.
