Running a number of production services on-premise on a big machine using native zones, a few using LX zones (the built-in Linux compatibilty layer), and a single bhyve zone. Actua…

You might also be interested in the IRMA protocol and the app implementing it, Yivi. They support a similar scheme, but using some additional cryptographic systems that provide ext…

Copying using OSC52 is great! I have a cross-platform shell function for that in my bashrc [1], as well as an implementation that works in vim [2]. [1]: https://github.com/DvdGiess…

When implementing a tiny timing library in JS a few years back I found that most engines indeed seem to cast the value to an integer (effectively flooring it), so in order to get c…

As a long time user of Sandboxie, I'm excited to see this announcement and am looking forward to the open source release and what the community might be able to do with it. Sandbox…

As it turns out, your post triggered this crappy AI's reply_with_obligatory_xkcd() subroutine. https://xkcd.com/876/

You could look into streaming parsers such as Oboe.js, which specifically support the use case of parsing JSON tree's larger than the available RAM[0]. Then again, when you're load…

I like the idea of sharing clean URL's. Actually, I use the Pure URL add-on[0] for Firefox which also removes garbage such as e-mail campaign tracking values, both for the purpose …
