I welcome Python3 just fine. Character data no longer being automatically ASCII might be a bit annoying, but it's fine if that's what it takes to support a more global developer base. I just wish they would stop…

Duo Mobile on iOS lets you save and restore your TOTP tokens across iPhone backups with a symmetric passphrase. It provides some peace of mind in the event you would lose your phone.
I have a similar tale to tell. Ever since I've taken activated charcoal regularly, I have felt considerable improvement in my digestion and overall well-being. I feel happier, even. The charcoal is "sourced from non-GMO…

I will never pay for YouTube until I'm guaranteed a way to opt out of the recommendation algorithm. It's not so much a recommendation algorithm as much as it is an adversarial search on my behavior to see what cheap…

One interpretation I've been entertaining: In the modern world, we have recently realized that speech is more complicated than people exchanging ideas in a civil manner, and that speech has the power to influence…
Neuromancer Snow Crash Blindsight (Just some fun fiction to bolster one's passion for their chosen profession. Obviously TAOCP, SICP, K&R, and other books in their ranks are better answers.)

The same could happen with a hardware token like Yubikey, if it were to suffer from an irrecoverable software or hardware error. It's still useful, because spoofed authentication prompts will no longer get a chance at…
I understand what the halting problem implies, what complexity is, what Turing machine means and why they are an abstraction for algorithms, and the basic common memes of programming such as using a stack and a heap,…
I can see this degenerating into some sort of efficiency metric that will be engineered around. For instance, it wouldn't be too hard to take the Google logo and make it a proper "light" with some LEDs. Or simply write…
Dear author, if you're the one sharing the article: you misspelled "retpoline" in your very first usage of the word.
If you're not being sarcastic and this piece is a native ad, why would Prozac be targeting youths? Are the youths depressed?
I've noticed hcaptcha being used more widely.
That one is for a MacBook Pro. GP probably wants one for an Air[0] instead. [0]: https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Mac/MacBook-Air-13-Inch-A2337-L...
The display assembly itself is $450, so 680 EUR sounds about right to have it professionally repaired. Also, it makes sense that it would cost that much. Most of the product is that luxury display, with an M1 hanging…
Call me old-fashioned, but I use Cmd-D to save bookmarks, and either the search bar or the bookmark library to organize/look through them. When I decide I want to blow away my operating system, I export my bookmarks and…
Besides having one thing fewer to carry on your person, I don't see the point. Aren't passports already cryptographic devices, containing your information for external lookup and verification? Why move that to the…
The Greek delta being used as a "o" irks me a bit too, because to me it looks very much like a consonant, but I make a one-off exception for this project.
>A Python script kept alive by Supervisor I laughed a little. Sometimes the job needs to be done quickly and in a familiar way, I suppose.
Not sure if this is a frame of reference effect, or maybe just a local minimum, but alternative/rock music from the early 00s was extremely depressing compared to the modern stuff (which seems to have settled into an…
To complicate matters, [method] actors might be better adapted for that sort of mental exercise than the average individual. I have the strong suspicion that method acting would adversely affect my memory, though. It…
