What was the deal with .org? EDIT: seems like Ethos Capital private equity firm wanted the .org registry, and Xavier Becerra (Attorney General of California at the time) wrote a letter that played major role in transaction being rejected &g

I believe the complete HTML version is right below the "Download PDF" button. Also I bet you could reproduce the cheatsheet using this HTML converted to markdown and some example from how other Posit (formerly RStudio) cheatsheets

Same can be said about loopback device in general. Why do you need to use networking when you are literally on the same device and can use binder/dbus and friends with native apps? Shizuku uses Binder AFAICS[^1]. Looking deeper it seem

Arguably PCIe lanes the thunderbolt exposes are a differentiating factor, not the maxed-out specs that "plain" usb-c cables can have. Although to be fair, I've never used the PCIe lanes on thunderbolt ports.

That's what I wondered as well, whether it is a new implementation, or perhaps they still use their version of cups? Or maybe they use the forked openprinting cups? Would be nice if somebody knowledgeable with a mac device told whether

The repo got archived in march, I wonder whether it means that Apple uses something other than CUPS on their devices? Quick search suggests they still use CUPS, but why would they archive the project then?

Much older? Wikipedia says[^1][^2] java appeared in 1995 (started in 1991), while python appeared in 1991 (started in late 1980s). 4 years doesn't seem too far apart, considering both language are >30 years old now. [^1]: https:&#x

He doesn't have a role at Facebook anymore AFAIK, although I can't find the source now. I remember hearing it was mostly due to filtering engine at Facebook being rewritten in Hack, so they don't have the need for Haskell peo

Secure boot ensures the image you boot was not tampered with. You can't install keylogger without tampering with the image. If you wanted to install physical keylogger, you would need to open the device up, and at least my laptop provi

There should still be privacy concerns, especially with their demo which sends a POST on "Generate". The author suggests the model is 85kB of weights, which could run perfectly well in browser. > But with this software - the to

Just a reminder that even if you managed to amend those commits and force-push, the commits would still exist and will be addressable given the hash is known.

Hackage recommends using Haskell's PVP[^1], but does not enforce it. That's why many haskell packages are a four-places versions: 3 required and fourth optional (but popular) that represents "other" changes, like documen

Mostly true, but I personally have it turned of for duckduckgo and it shows me some ads with [ad] label. Actually if you wanted to disable ads there, you wouldn't even need an ad blocker, there's toggle in the settings

I would argue that the barrier to entry is on par with python for a person with no experience, but you need much more time with Haskell to become proficient in it. In python, on the other hand, you can learn the basics and these will get yo
