I think that would work well. A high-quality hash is designed such that changing a single input bit will flip approximately half of the output bits. So hashing both values will make it very easy for a human to spot…
> Just curious, but in your opinion, how does the composition API improve on React hooks? I'm a fan of how Vue's composition API executes exactly once during a component lifetime (during `setup()`), whereas React hooks…

Some lefties learn to write by either hooking their hand above or angling it below below the line being written, sometimes complemented by slanting the page toward or away from their writing arm.
Wasabi has an important 'gotcha': they charge you for a minimum of 90 days of retention, even if you delete an object seconds after creating it. https://wasabi.com/paygo-pricing-faq/#minimum-storage-durati... That…
I'm in Raleigh/Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Before everything shut down last year, my local theaters played a showing of a classic film each month, often Hitchcock. The few I went to had plenty of attendees. Another local theater took the lockdown as an…
Another option in this space is Tiller (https://www.tillerhq.com/). They seem well-established, and offer some spreadsheet templates for plug-and-play solutions to some common budgeting scenarios. If you don't care…
I interpreted it as brainstorming ways to actively sabotage success. "Solutions" that appears superficially plausible, but undermine the outcome in real world situations. So for the dust filter, maybe selecting a…
The GP's example doesn't involve invalid datetimes. The datetimes aren't out of bounds or invalid in any way that a check constraint would detect. They've just become factually incorrect ("bad data"), because they are…
There is a material difference to users between a single attacker having (and possibly ignoring) a data dump, and that attacker publishing that dump publically, or selling it to someone who plans to exploit its…
Having lived through the debut of Firesheep, which prompted the industry to get serious about using TLS, its an amusing triumph of cybersecurity that today a site has to be careful to not accidentally get issued a…
My Aftershokz are good for spoken word in noisy/trafficy environments unless I'm inside a car at freeway speeds, or operating a lawn mower. They could work in a car if they got a little louder. Just be aware that they…
The external auth service's API would receive textual input (expecting a string read from a textbox), not binary. A hash that included null bytes would output those in hex as ASCII zeroes, which wouldn't cause the same…
There was an excellent breakdown about the challenges with growing teeth recently on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26854080
I'm curious why you feel that way? The DevOps mantra is that you shouldn't be trying to manage deployments at all, except in aggregate. They should be seamless enough to become non-events that happen frequently and with…
Pebble 2 is still the #4 most funded Kickstarter ever, with Pebble 1 taking first place. Every smartwatch I've tried in the years since the buy-out just reminds me how much I miss my Pebbles.
A surprising number of limited-access networks only do port blocking, not protocol sniffing. This means many will cheerfully let you connect to an SSH server over port 443 (useful for a SOCKS proxy).
Using SQLite databases as an application file format is encouraged by the SQLite team: https://sqlite.org/appfileformat.html
For read-heavy content sites like Yahoo Answers, I wonder why they get shut down instead of getting compiled into pregenerated static HTML and hosted as read-only.
The current state of webapps on Android has made good progress on these issues: Supported on all major Android browsers: - Progressive Web Apps can be added to your home screen - Web Push lets web apps receive push…
During college I got to see both sides of this play out. I started out majoring in Computer Engineering, an embedded systems oriented curriculum. They started us with assembler, then C, and worked our way up. I switched…
As much as dislike Spotify's UI, I listen to a mountain of fringe content that no other streaming service carries but Spotify has in spades, because all of the indies make sure to upload to Spotify. I'm sorely tempted…
It's certainly striking, but the world is full of surprises like that. Goldman Sachs' CEO is an EDM DJ with 550,000 monthly Spotify listeners. He performs at nighclubs and music festivals, gets plays on Sirius XM, and…
