Finding this one-page was great! It gave me a new term I didn't have before that leads to all sorts of new materials to go rifling through.

Worktrees are useful particularly because they look like entirely separate projects to your IDEs or other project tooling. They are more useful on larger projects with lots of daily commits. If you just use branches then whenever you switch

There are OS-level settings for date and unit formats but not all software obeys that, instead falling back to using the default date/unit formats for the selected locale.

Render to pdf or ebook to read from an ereader, at least that's what I prefer. I use Instapaper to quickly snag articles while browsing then later use my kobo to sit and read through them.

The article presumes the reader is familiar with "malicious inbox rules" and doesn't elaborate or link to further info on it. From what I can find online it seems to be a scenario where an email account has already been compr

I'm a huge fan of uMatrix too, and have debated getting involved to help revive it. Can you share more information on the bypass you mention?

Looks like the source to Bitestring's blog is still up, maybe domain registration just lapsed? https://github.com/bitestring/bitestring.github.io/blob/main...

Rust caught the lock being held across an await boundary, but without further context I'd hedge there's still a concurrency issue there if the solution was to release the lock before the await. Presumably the lock is intended to b

Same would be true for any resource that needs cleaned up, right? Referring to stop-polling-future as canceling is probably not good nomenclature. Typically canceling some work requires cleanup, if only to be graceful let alone properly rel

They first disabled rubocop to prevent further exploit, then rotated keys. If they awaited deploying the fix that would mean letting compromised keys remain valid for 9 more hours. According to their response all other tools were already sa

If your only professional experience is OCaml and you want to look elsewhere for work then your opportunities shrink noticeably. Especially if you're looking for a position that requires experience. It's much more digestible for a

I don’t even prefer it for indicating that something can return null. In most cases the Option API is more tedious and awkward than a null check and there are existing annotations that can be used to flag nullable return types, for document

I think you misread the original post. They’re referring to LLVM the compiler toolchain, not LLMs.

Great write up. I read through maybe half of the points and skipped to the end, bookmarked to come back and finish later. I’d like if the author could elaborate a bit about the types of projects that influenced these guidelines. Roughly wha

I work with software medical devices. Another aspect here aside from 510k is that it is required, or effectively required, to comply with something like IEC-62304 (developing software as a medical device), and ISO-13485 (quality management

It’s probably not part of their repo, but exists alongside, possibly gitignored. Either way in the same workspace the IDE will have to invalidate a lot of it when you switch, and again so when switching back. Separate clones, or worktrees,

We’re not yet using git, but we have one repository with multiple branches, one for each released version (on-prem software, not a service run). We are in regular active development of ~3 branches at a time. Most developers dealing with thi

I don’t have an answer, but the article’s description made it sound like clients assume a default of 100 until it received the sever’s value in a SETTINGS frame. So there would only be a brief window of time where the client would appear to

I think the example is the code for a child process which must use a separate thread to block on stdin for the whole process. As soon as the parent process dies (no example code?), the connection to the child process’ stdin will be unblock,
