I don't think this is realistic in the default npm ecosystem where projects can have 1000s of dependencies (with the majority being transitive with fuzzy versions). Though pnpm doe…

There was an NPM RFC for this feature (though not as focused on supply chain attacks) in 2022, but the main response mirrored some of the other comments in here. "waiting a length …

The linked source this article was using states: "You might ask, maybe Hertz was charging Lee for having to top the Model 3's battery upon its return? According to the final receip…

This was a month ago. Appears it was v0.13.0. Just for fun, since I still had it installed and haven't gotten around to cleaning up the remote data, I updated to latest (v0.14.1) a…

This is my experience as well. Low quality junk is often not present, and if it does show up, it's two mouse clicks to never see that domain again. Also the ability to promote high…

This has been my experience too with Kopia. I tried to restore a ~200 GB file (stored remotely on a Hetzner Storage Box), and it failed (or at least did not finish after being left…

You can get by without owning a car in Philadelphia too. There are pain points, but it is possible.

What's the point in being "hungry"? To fill the pockets of some soulless corporation and hope they'll pass down some scraps while making record profits? I have worked at the same p…

Because the initial "hi" forces a context switch which the recipient (after reading and replying) has to either: Sit idle while the sender writes their actual question, or try to c…

JP Morgan is not a local lawn care service, they have the funds to not make mistakes like this. Larger companies should be held to a higher standard because their actions have a wi…

Most of my job as a software developer is communicating with other people (stakeholders, peers, management), including written (pr comments, emails to various people, Teams chats, …

To me, reading HN or some other site (and replying), playing online games with strangers (and no voice chat or really the need to communicate at all), etc... are largely just ways …

"Not being rewarded with money seems to be the common theme here, but financial incentives are tricky to get correct" Giving pay raises which exceed inflation for someone who meets…

I'm not sure it is a dark pattern, but at first glance (to me) it reads a bit like the "Allow all" and "Reject all" buttons just toggle the options, and then one needs to press "Co…

I have definitely gotten infinite one-click captchas from Turnstile (because of being on a VPN I guess), I have also gotten non-infinite but multiple one-click captchas. If they ar…

It seems like this is more favorable to those being laid off, effectively being paid to look for a new job.

Not passwords, but the hackers have some unencrypted data because LastPass did not encrypt all vault data client-side: "The threat actor was also able to copy a backup of customer …

If you just want comments (and trailing commas), there is also this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsonc-parser

Icons take up less space on the screen, which is useful if you are using a smaller browser window (or a phone screen).

Just to be clear, a credit freeze does not stop prescreened credit offers either [0]. [0] https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0497-credit-freeze-faq...

It's worth noting, as far as I can tell, that product offering ("Lock & Alert") is not (legally) the same as a credit freeze. Which means they aren't legally bound not to release y…

This vote seems like the best chance of maintaining NN at the national level. Congress ultimately directly serve at the pleasure of their constituents, unlike the FCC commissioners…
