I don’t even need the features but I’ll probably buy a license anyway. This software is great and I can’t imagine going back to macOS’ built in alt tab or Mission Control. The only…

I wonder if this has any measurable impact on compile times.

Tell me: why are these algorithms suddenly okay when the victim turns 18? They are bad for everyone and if you’re willing to regulate them, make them illegal to be used on anyone.

I love how to do anything in this language, you have to fight it with all you have. You have to use features in ways that feel like they were probably never intended to be used in.…

I feel like they could do a better job, though. In the postmortems of incidents you often hear it's because some maintainer got hit by the perfect phishing attack at the right time…

Thanfully, you don't need to write p/invoke stuff yourself anymore. https://github.com/microsoft/cswin32 creates methods and all related structs for you. It's also AOT compatible (…

Maybe we could add an extension to webauthn that adds a reason to a passkey. Then, the credential manager can warn the user better why deleting the passkey would be a bad idea.

Many such cases

I think most of us will wait for these chips to get into more useful computers.

This! Does it render Windows‘ windows individually on the Linux desktop, with integration into alt-tab, the Ubuntu dock etc. or does it just render one big VM window? How is that n…

Then the government will just force ISP DNS not to answer queries for the domain. That's how easy you can block 99% of users, which is good enough. And eventually, when all our har…

Looks like I finally found some common ground with the US government. May the UK fail again.

Did the OTP message they sent you state that this code was specifically to authenticate on the phone? If it did and even included details like the person‘s name, that would make me…

Maybe once it’s round enough, we’ll get a round Apple Watch screen.

If the police has a warrant, they can present it to your phone provider who are then required to send the data they have about you and your phone calls. This data may include the a…

I wish jq would be in the posix standard. JSON is EVERYWHERE nowadays. A system that can’t parse it is incomplete. Not having a standard way to write a script that does it and work…

Who knows if that interview even happened. Bild makes up stuff all the time, or bends the truth to make it more interesting or fit their narrative better. My ass would be offended …

Why don’t they just write a system prompt? If you want GPT 5 to be a sycophantic empath who validates every keystroke in every message you send, it’ll generate texts like that.

…if that was the reason, why would the operating systems give other applications the right to steal focus and record keystrokes? They control the kernel, they don’t need that.

On today's episode of "Addicted to the AdTech browser": Our protagonist face yet another case of being fucked over by their favorite advertisement and surveillance vehicle disguise…

I once had a use case where I wrapped a callback based library (Amazon's S3 library I think) call to instead return an iterator. Couldn't do that with only a generator since you ca…

>This grain, formed from tiny particles during the film’s development, is more than just a visual effect. It plays a key role in storytelling by enhancing the film’s depth and cont…

If it hasn't seen an upstream release since 2019, doesn't that mean the implementation is just... finished? Maybe there's no more bugs to fix and features to add. And in that case,…

The entire EU is in flames ever since they allowed "sideloading". Every device is compromised, people are eating their children to survive. This is what Apple and macrumors users a…
