How's that ironic or relevant? Most scientists do not receive awards.

The browser will only remember the last 5 roles you’ve assumed, so it’s still a pain.

Wow just realized Firefox has this feature built-in but not enabled by default! Just needed to turn on "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order".

The author mentioned the vimium addon with the ability to quickly flip back to the previous tab. This makes me want something similar to the recently-used-tab selector in VSCode - pressing ctrl-tab pops-up a list of recently used tabs in re

The section about signature hashes could use some improvement. Cryptographic hashes have multiple use cases. The main one that comes to mind is basically just secure checksum/integrity hashes where you want to guarantee nobody could fo

But where are the reports/blog posts from the thousands of companies using these algorithms that ran into performance problems the last few times cloud providers used time smearing? I’ve done some searching and can’t find any, which su

Seems a weird way to write an algorithm. Easier to rely on database locking and/or the obvious fact that if you have received some data telling you about an event having happened, then it has happened… Curious if there are any real rep

Sure but that’s why I think the take-away here is to design the system such that you can do such automated rollbacks. For example, the devices should also be connected to some sort of isolated management network. Granted, pushing out a conf

The router config is not the top of the stack though. There should be orchestration systems that push out changes to these devices and can roll them back when required.

I’ve seen this type of thing happen a few times. Usually a combination of a human error at the factory plus flaky backend systems that like to do upserts.

You are arguing purely on price but not considering other factors. To the person who bought the beer, the deemed value is probably more than they paid for it, and to the seller the beer was a liability due to having a limited shelf life and

Same - the row format itself starts with a bitmask listing all null columns. You don’t need to read the column data itself to determine if a column is null. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/storage-page-layo

I think this is a great change. I wish NULLS NOT DISTINCT was the default already - if I wanted the constraint to ignore null values I’d have used a partial index to only index non-null values. Doing the opposite is much more difficult.
138.
by zeroimpl 4y ago
Your last statement would be better written as: Because NULL values are of unknown equality, they may or may not violate UNIQUE constraints. The safest implementation would assume that they do violate the constraint, rather than the curren

I ordered chicken wings at a vegan fast food restaurant. I too would have preferred if the name was more specific, even though it’s implied by the context. It was my first time at the restaurant so I specifically asked them to confirm it wa

Apparently it hides the shadows when you screenshot an individual window. Neat trick, although I think I'm going to apply the trick from the article, since I don't think I ever actually want the shadows.

I was in a gifted program but it was poorly executed and I deem it to have been detrimental to my growth. I was randomly pulled from normal classes in order to hang out with a few other gifted students and do weird puzzles or whatever. Then

I use both awk and jq infrequently enough that I tend to struggle with anything non-trivial. I think zq would be the same. > Not entirely convinced by the zq syntax either though; it also seems "arcane enough" that I would keep

I’d like to see a flag somewhere to enable this. Perhaps it is a filesystem flag, similar to case-sensitivity.

by zeroimpl 4y ago
Yes I’ve run “git status”, “git log” and “git diff” on other people’s repo’s plenty of times to help debug things, so it’d be sad to see this stop working. It seems some basic readonly operations should still be supported.

You can't implement an outer join with a cross product.

by zeroimpl 4y ago
I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this yet - a LEFT JOIN can be more efficient than an INNER JOIN precisely because the database doesn't need to enforce the filter during the query plan. This comes up for me most often with

It sounds like this could be a behind-the-scenes feature to optimize ThreadLocal class. It doesn't seem like the type of thing you'd use directly.

I get npm, but is it that realistic that yum will pull down a virus? If yum could be infected, then you are either pulling down obscure packages or using a 3rd party repository. If a mainstream package could get infected, it’s just as likel
