It's tempting to look at it that way; but that's being over-reductive. UIs of today are not the UIs of 20 years ago. Users expect much more from today's UIs, and UI toolkits necessarily get more complex as a result in…
Not as much of a lack of seriousness as excusing away hallucinations as not that big of a deal in what's supposed to be a researched, scholarly body of work written by humans.
Not the author, but: > how do you exactly know how javascript works inside out? Javascript has pretty detailed specifications. They're not exhaustive, but the article here does mention that in some of the dark corner…
> I sat through a conference session in the late nineties trying to understand the difference between an OLE document, a COM object, and an ActiveX control. To be brutally honest, if you were a serious Windows developer…
This particular vehicle was sold at an impound auction under a court order. Any existing legal ownership of the vehicle prior to the auction was extinguished.
There was a software package a couple decades ago, I want to say it was Lotus Notes but I'm pretty sure it wasn't actually Lotus Notes but something of that ilk, that would show a small, random number of asterisks…
It's not React. It's React Native. React Native and React are about as similar as JavaScript and Java. React Native is a way of orchestrating a UI comprised of native controls.
Hopping in here to suggest that instead of running a persistent whole-ass daemon, you could just configure a systemd service, set it up to trigger off a write to a fifo, and then use filesystem permissions to restrict…
I mean it's a dog so you can't exactly ask them; but this was a dog that would bark at every other dog. If he wasn't barking at Hooch because Hooch was only showing up at 24 FPS, then I'm inclined to think he didn't…
It's about being able to perceive it as a "living" moving creature and not something different. You can understand something below the perception threshold is supposed to be a creature because you both have a far more…
The use cases for YAML that don't involve any sort of scripting vastly outnumber the use cases for YAML that involve embedding scripts into a document; so it's a little unfair and inaccurate to say that "in YAML it's…
The more SKUs you have, the more digital shelf space you get on a shopping website. When your sole differentiating factor from your competitors is that your laptop has an "HP" logo on it and theirs has a "Dell" logo on…
The browser does have a UDP data stream available for applications to send arbitrary bytes over UDP; it's part of WebRTC.

The best solution for dealing with AI content slop flooding your eyeballs is to hang out in places small enough to be a community -- like a local area mesh network. AI slop thrives in anonymity. In a community that's…
Depends what you're actually storing. There are plenty of cases where the timezone is not metadata; it defines how the datetime should be interpreted. For example: your local mom and pop corner store's daily opening and…
It doesn't to me. It should be obvious that there are plenty of valid uses of dates and times which implicitly refer to either an exact instant in time, or the expression of a time in a certain reckoning. A birthday…
That's absurd. The system should be able to update itself without fear that it's going to break anything. The user should not be expected to have to set aside time to babysit an update. Windows isn't perfect in this…
I believe Shopify looked into using a JS engine in WASM for front end sandboxing but ended up using a wrapper around the Shadow Realms API instead.
The major Javascript engines already have the concept of a type system that applies at runtime. Their JITs will learn the 'shapes' of objects that commonly go through hot-path functions and will JIT against those with…
There's not some conspiracy that's stopped it from happening. Nobody, anywhere, has ever said "DOM access from WASM isn't allowed". It's not a matter of 'allow', it's a matter of capability. There's a lot of…
The only fully-functional interface for viewing statements and scheduling payments is on iPhone. In fact I'm pretty sure you can't do either of those things at all in any other place than the iPhone Wallet app. Not even…
In a similar act of marketing malfeascence they renamed their mobile Remote Desktop app to "Windows".
But this is very obviously not "no stuff". This is "different stuff". Taking the website down entirely or just blanking it out is a very, very different matter than replacing it with a different message; and doubly so…
