In JSON the de facto standard for datetime is (because of JavaScript) very much the Unix msec timestamp (which is always in UTC) so while it's not hardcoded in spec you basically need to be an idiot not to do it like…
Few years back, Convey[1] has apparently outran HAProxy in an alleged benchmark by the author[2]. That's a one man project (now abandoned, sadly) outrunning a decade old product built by an enterprise company AND a big…
All nice and dandy, but a coroutine, and doubly so a goroutine, is still a coloured function.
HackerNews is really a bubble sometimes. I don't get who the "many people" that "got used to macOS" are. Apple had fiery fest of sales in Q4 2021, outsold all Wintel manufacturers, let alone Chromebooks. And after that,…
So XFCe == GNOME and LXDE is GNOME or KDE, depending on which version we're talking about? UI toolkit doesn't equal a desktop environment. There is tons of stuff in the GNOME ecosystem (some of which it will make a lot…
I am perfectly content with how things are now. I still collect things I care about, I have tons of FLACs (some ripped from my CDs, some bought online) from artists that are meaningful to me and whose music is…
Open Cycling Maps combines OSM data with open source topo data and works really well. The gold standard for digital hiker is a gpx track made by experienced mountaineer, on top of OCM. Between that, satellite imagery…
What a way to avoid dealing with actual arguments. Btw we don't. Most law breaking in entrepreneurship is usually finable misdemeanours. Like 99.99% of it. We don't call those people criminals.
They're probably a native speaker of gramatically gendered language (like German, most Slavic languages etc).
It is also a frustrating experience to endure reloads on every click if what the user is using feels like a web application and you're essentially placing that burden of reducing the interaction roundtrip time on your…
I've only used Vue SSR / Nuxt this way, so there might be a fundamental difference in the implementation, but hydration process in it isn't blocking, and whether or not it's slow greatly depends on how heavy your webapp…
WIPO / Berne rules are guidelines. Not even in the Western Europe which aims for "feature parity" with US copyright laws are things the same (case in point: treatment of copyright and patent ownership of things invented…
The fact that this industry turned to a proprietary low-quality solution like Slack when Riot/Matrix have already existed tells the full story about what a bunch of incompetent idiots we all are. Everyone frustrated…
People growing up in western society have become so egocentric it's absurd. We've finally made it, we're incompatible with what human society has been for thousands of years and to some extent still is in Asia --…
Good luck doing code reviews with a distributed team using that.
There are valid reasons for a "never rewrite history" policy, but their validity pales further you go from the master branch. The thing is that in a lot of scenarios people need to do huge chunks of work in feature…
And then leadership hires good lawyers that do their best to deflect the blame to the developer.
As someone who had to deal with them from both sides, EU public procurement laws are fucked up beyond repair. There is, however, a simple cure for software that the public sector is avoiding in most places: 1. base the…
Perhaps. But those that they spy on (spouses, children, employees..) don't.
Biodiversity will recover on a planetary timescale. Our civilization will probably be lost tho.
Given how most polution comes from places where people generally have very little children, I doubt that reducing births in the third world would be an effective measure. We need to solve for different variables: energy…
So you're arguing that the third world doesn't deserve washing machines and clean water, so that you can have one person per SUV in the states?
Except that EU has been doing it's job since the 90s and China has been doing it as well in recent years. They both slipped the last 12 months and a lot of it, at least in Europe is combination of side-effects of the…
You are right about anti-GMO but my experience with antivaxers was that they were predominantly anti-science, often highly religious and more commonly conservative or fringe right than the other way around.
I don't think antivaxers are predominantly left wing. The whole Big Xxx (in this case Pharma) paranoia has long since left the camp of rational scepticism over suspiciously funded research and into the realm of…
