I dabble in "life storage" and your comment made me think that some sort of executable shipped alongside backup locations to read the data, if in some deduplicated backup form, seems valuable. Eg Camlistore/Perkeep had…
Heck if it's a general purpose web app - ie not only Chrome, maybe give Tauri[1] a try? [1]: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri
How useful would that book (IPv6 Address Planning) be to someone not working specifically in networking/ops? I like developing applications and i manage, of course, my home network. I'd love a book that gives me…
Hash Map/Set keys is a common one, for example.
So i agreed with you until: > I'd certainly classify that as addictive behavior -- i.e. when a healthy young man is more interested in what's on his phone than he is in the attractive woman sitting across the table from…
I don't know much about Starlink, but isn't one point of Starlink that eventually it could even beat wired connections for distance latency? Ie it's a shorter and more direct trip to use Starlink to get from US West to…
It's not a security risk. The security risk was removed, and the provided feature is an expensive workaround to avoid the security risk.
> Sometimes I don't understand what's going on in the heads of the people thinking this stuff up :/ So this post made me look up[1][2] COOP/COEP, but as far as i can tell this seems to be a security measure. Seemingly…
I could agree with you from a UX-flow perspective, but the tech is so shoddy that i loathe it. Everything is a "web 2.0" monstrosity of load times and popin. Open the wrong link and it takes you 40 seconds for…
Man, i feel like i'd miss so many interesting topics. Do you think this same goal might work if you limited it to, say, 10 bookmarks? Survival of the fittest, you always compare it to the rest and if it's good enough,…
This looks cool! I'm writing an immutable data store, with my own hashes as IDs; I wonder how viable it would be to use IPFS CID's as my IDs? I expect the trouble there would be how the data is chunked. If IPFS…
I don't know this field, perhaps my bar is low because of Python lol, but Go's GC has very short GC pauses. So short that it makes non-GC'd usecases less attractive imo. My big issue with Go's GC, or GC's in general, is…
Curious, why do you want a GC'd Rust? I imagine there's something about Rust that you feel would be improved with a GC?
> But for Rust, looking for language experience might be the right choice since the learning curve is relatively steep and takes time. Unless, of course, the company is okay giving 2 months to just learn. Yea, this is…
For me it was things that aided user(dev) experience, and that was primarily things like iterators, enums, and functional patterns like maps (in the robust stdlib), good crate ecosystem. That made a huge DX improvement…
Disclaimer: Rust fanatic Sidenote, i think a lot of the tech crowd forgets how much industry will lag behind popularity, for a whole bunch of good reasons. My shop uses Rust, and all our hires are aimed at Rust, and…
There is no illusion of safety. It's 100% safe, within the code you right, if you don't use unsafe. If there is unsafe in code you use (write or shared), it's a handful of lines which you can nearly grep for it's so…
But you still have to look up the individual values right? I'm using Flakes, pinning commit hashes is automatic (lockfile) - but i still have no clue what version any package is on. As with a lot of comments about…
How does default.nix handle dependencies? From what i've (i'm on NixOS) seen you just see something like `gcc` or `openssl`, with no clue what version. Tbh i've found Nix very very lacking in the dependency department.…
I actually question if burnout is related to the idea that as software developers we often come in being passion driven, but "work" as defined by other people tends to whittle away at passion. Eg there's a common…
What's the definition of properly though? It opens and works fine. If you're saying "Features that only exist within Obsidian won't exist in other apps!" then.. yea, that's true. However features that _do_ exist in…
Agreed. And what is exactly expected to be done, if sticking to strictly "Markdown spec"? You can't do anything meaningful with such a small subset of language features, where as Obsidian and Obsidian Plugins are all…
I would agree, but for me it's a tightly coupled idea - my knowledge base and a subset of knowledge i choose to retain. So while yes, a dedicated app for SR would probably be "better", i'd then have to make tightly…
In your mind how do LogSeq and Obsidian differ?
For anyone who follows Obsidian, have they approached the idea of spaced repetition or perhaps plugins for spaced repetition? A big thing i want in a note taking tool is Spaced Repetition, but not _just_ that, more like…
