Hi, thanks for answering :) > Collection expressions made the language more coherent. Instead of 7 different ways of doing things (some of which were genuinely not efficient), we gave one uniform way of doing it. I see…
I guess I overdramatized the situation a bit :) It's a passionate topic for me; as somebody who has been using C# at work for 10 years now, I'm just not happy with the direction the language has been taking. You're…
I'm 100% on board with the [] syntax. I'm not on board with adding the syntax for passing arguments to the constructor within that syntax. I agree that = [] is perfectly fine syntax. But I would definitely argue that:…
Absolutely agree. Modern C# language design feels very much lacking in vision or direction. It's mostly a bunch of shiny-looking language features being bolted on, all in ways that make the language massively more…
Oof, that's disappointing to hear. Thanks though, that's actually quite interesting. I'm also thinking of keeping an android phone purely for auth purposes, separate from my main one. The world's most overengineered…
Will eIDAS be the only way to identify yourself in cases where it's needed, or will we be able to user other mechanisms like the german ID card stuff or an entirely separate alternative? Or to put it another way, is a…
I'm not sure either. I've looked at this other document: https://bmi.usercontent.opencode.de/eudi-wallet/eidas-2.0-ar... It seems to imply that the already existing way of authenticating via eID, which is the auth chip…
Because there are other factors at play. No-till is mostly about sustainability of farming. Humans often don't optimize for the most sustainable option but for the option that's most profitable (or perceived to be most…
Oh, great to see this on HN! I found Filmulator a few years ago and used it for most of my raw photography (which, admittedly, isn't a lot) and found it amazing. Exactly what I wanted. Streamlined, easy to get into,…

The feds, absolutely. Still, there's a lot of other parties that should not have an easy way of accessing the data (if there is any - the joys of closed source implementations).
There's a difference between web technologies and "the web" as an amorphous philosophical construct. Web technologies, as you stated, are obviously doing just fine. I'd argue the latter isn't. To be more specific, the…
Sounds cool, I'll keep an eye on it :D

There's cinny, which is a pretty polished Matrix client that is very, uh, inspired by Discord in its look, that might soon add voice rooms: https://github.com/cinnyapp/cinny/pull/2335 I played around with this…
Yup, definite recommendation for Turing Complete. It looks nice, is really well done and very addictive. Also, it's on GOG (https://www.gog.com/game/turing_complete) which is always nice.
Thanks, I'll take what I can get :D
Not a question, just wanted to say I'm a big fan of your blog and have been binge-reading it in recent times. I really enjoy the way you explain concepts like transistor types, digital logic and chip design in a way…
Fancy. Think I'm gonna go with a traditional bridge for my usecase, but this looks pretty cool. Maybe I have some other uses for it for other applications. Thank you :)
I always assumed that the VPN connection is shared by many HTB users, so it seemed like a good idea to be a bit paranoid about the trustworthyness of a VM that is reachable by lots of users that may want to mess around.…
If you don't mind, I have a specific question regarding this setup. I've been looking into getting into pentesting, mostly for fun. I decided on messing around with HackTheBox as a starting point. Seeing as you need to…
Definitely recommend Turing Complete. I've been playing it off and on over the last few weeks, just finished the first working CPU. It includes small hints and solutions for most levels, so if you get stuck, you'll…
I don't know what parts of western Europe you're talking about, but in Germany, cyclists absolutely make left turns all the time. Also, drivers are taught about this in driving school, so they will (or should at least)…
