I don't think they're going to let you claim a donation to an open source developer as some sort of charitable donation, which means the tax write off would be no different here from any other business expense.

But listening on port 80 and revoking the key also won’t help either as the active MitM would have been smart enough to internally proxy to port 443 or return some other fake response. The real point is to break the application during devel

In my experience (full stack web development), unit tests are mostly useless and it is the high-level system tests which add real value. Unfortunately it can take a fair amount of work or skill to architect the test suite in the first place

While great inventions, neither of those are "scientific achievements" IMO. The silicon transistor on the other hand is a good example of an invention that came directly as a result of science.

Doesn’t make much sense to me. If you are going to use a credit card for some payments, why wouldn’t you use it for all?

While OR can be performance killers, in other cases it works perfectly fine, or sometimes even better than the equivalent UNION ALL query. In this case the problem is that they are applying a LIMIT with ORDER BY so it can’t do the usual Bit

Even if the tracker didn’t alert the thief, how hard is it for a thief to find a tracker on the bike on their own? I don’t think an AirTag is going to save too many bicycles. Seems like the calculus would only make sense when you are talkin

But sudo already doesn’t do that either. Eg sudo may ask for a password, and output some control sequences which hide the text so your password is not visible. This feels like much ado about nothing. Edit: Also don’t forget the “with great

This new requirement from Apple related to the EU's Digital Services Act will display developer's contact information (address and phone number) on app store listings in the EU. It's not clear to me what problem this is solvi

This seems so obvious that it’s baffling to me that the article doesn’t discuss this issue.

Note the ids appear to be 40-bit numbers, which isn’t great for security in the first place. I’m not sure off hand if there’s an efficient way to test all 2^40 values but seems feasible.

There’s several things which break down if you eliminate layer boundaries. Can you still have a layer that is bigger than the image boundary, or would pixels get cropped when they move outside? What happens if you apply a noise filter? Does

Makes sense. You mentioned index so I thought maybe you were were querying a table. Would be nice if postgresql could tell you when the flags don’t match. I think anytime you deal with timestamps you can have problems since the expression m

An immutable function cannot query a table because the table itself isn’t immutable. If your stable/immutable flags don’t match reality, the function can’t be inlined.

The way I deal with this is my history tables have 3 fixed columns: * OperationType: An ENUM of "INSERT", "UPDATE", "DELETE" * OperationTimestamp: TIMESTAMPTZ * OperationId: BIGSERIAL (needed to c

While renting does typically cost more than owing, from a purely financial perspective, in practice you can argue that the difference is simply what you are paying the landlord for the services they are providing. The landlord is responsibl

Yeah I assumed that's what you were doing, since you mentioned Github blocked specifically. If you need to proxy through a protocol other than SSH, likely need to keep using ProxyCommand.

Try ProxyJump instead - it’s the newer way of doing it.

The part I’m confused on is the documentation saying the returned object from Object.groupBy doesn’t extend from Object.prototype. Is it still an object? The return value of groupBy is an object that does not inherit from %Object.prot

Probably gotta define h(x) = f(g(x)) and then invoke h. Or they should build a REPL or Fiddle interface to let you test arbitrary expressions.

It's a matter of defaults, and no choice of default will work for everybody. I agree that "rsync --archive" ought to preserve extended attributes, same with creating a tarball. But when copying a file, as opposed to creating

The article kind of implies it's Apple's fault, but Google was the well established leader before iPhone launched. Apple did build a Google Maps alternative, but it took a while for it to become good.
