I’ll happily pay a lot of premium for a long “just works” TB3/4 cable so I can pretend I live in a world where cables aren’t themselves computers and don’t have complicated sets of features they …

That's true now. Used to be the case that they'd recommend random or high-entropy parts of the keys go at the beginning to avoid overloading a shard as you described above. From [0]: > T…
comment
Just checked, out of curiosity. A bucket at $WORK with ~4B objects / ~100TB is completely usable through the console. Keys are hierarchal, and relatively deep, so no one page on the GUI is tryin…

Presumably if the laptop is stolen, the key isn’t exposed because it’s in 1Password, and the attacker doesn’t have your master password?

The timestamps kill me

> To the extent that we can agree on speed limits that delineate the difference between safe and unsafe behavior That can’t be the case though? If the posted limit is the boundary between safe and …

I'm close to your age than some of the other commenters, but I also find that marriage/child statistic unsurprising, not least given the events of the last two years, and the assumption of a…

To be fair, they're competing against ~$1000 stationary bikes, not the low end felt/friction stationary bikes.
comment
Exactly, paying more for the content to motivate one to ride seems like an extravagance when one could, y'know, just ride the bike. +1 for the IC4, it seems like a much better piece of kit than i…

That seemed shocking, but it doesn’t appear to be true? https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_swift/issues/536#issueco... …

It’s like a lot of the crypto stuff. The research is really cool, and making real progress toward new capabilities. Simultaneously there are a lot of people and companies seizing on that work to pro…

Seems like it accepted a point to the verification function from the thing it was supposed to be verifying?
comment
Device share by income is going to be a better proxy of importance to FB than overall global share.
comment
Ah, dang, that's on me, I forgot the earlier talk discussed EPYC chips too.
comment
See also the a more recent talk[0] on progress made on the same topic. On EPYC too, so perhaps more applicable to OP? [0]: https://people.freebsd.org/~gallatin/talks/euro202…

cf. something like 10-20k in property taxes and another 20-40k in state income tax in urban California for comparable values of modest and good…

Why do you see a difference between colloquial usage of ‘black hole’ and ‘valid address from which tokens cannot be retrieved’?
comment
Great summary! I use restclient to produce example calls for READMEs and stuff but I hadn’t thought to export an html view. While this really exercises the markup features of org-mode and org-babel, w…

I choose to believe this is an _incredible_ joke about missing nuance.

A million comments and this is the only valuable one. Amazing that everyone accepted the premise that Apple proposed refactoring some other project’s CI.

It’s not local docker, but export DOCKER_HOST=ssh://user@some.nix.box
does the trick for like 90 percent of my local docker workflows. Big gaps are local volumes, remembering to lo…

That’s nearly the model of the Americana development in the LA area. An outdoor mall modeled to look like a dense, walkable city (complete with trolley car!) with apartments on top. No grocery store…

Depending on the source, it might not be published yet, or the PDF you grabbed might be a pre-print while the 'officially' published article is behind a journal paywall. Generally, I take th…
comment
It was still audible, but filtered from 'damagingly painful' to 'perceptible', and only on the side that was directly exposed. I don't find a lot of navigational value in list…
comment
Just as a gentle counterpoint, consider the magnitude of the problem. Let's say there are 300m AirPod units that have been produced (60m sales per year for the last 5 years). Each unit is about…
comment
Just to provide my own ancedata, I've been an AirPods users for a long time, and don't find the alert sounds particularly loud or annoying. I think the volume of complaints and popularity of…
comment
Most of the authors complaints are valid. I'm definitely guilty of the 10-second 'Hello? Hello?' dance at the start of phone calls. However, AirPods are such a good product I can forg…
comment
Your (and other's) complaints about the volume of the AirPod alert notifications makes me think either (a) your hearing is more sensitive than most or (b) I've lost more hearing than I thoug…
