Moderation is good, just don't overdo it...

Well, they keep pushing the Creator Bundle when I open up the Numbers.app I bought bundled with the system. Perhaps they are implying creative bookkeeping?

As someone who was part of developing the “start your business”-registration system in DK, I’m pleased to hear that! (It really is pretty complex, but a lot of effort went into mak…

In my country, citizens have an "ID" (a UUID, which most people don't know the value of!) and a social security number which they know - which has all the problems described above)…

Totally agree, I was just pointing out to GP why LocalDate wasn’t a record. (Date and Calendar should never be used in new code. Note how the new date/time API doesn’t have any con…

But ... LocalDate predated records by 6 years? Eventually, I guess there'll be backwards compatible "pattern extractors" functionality retrofittable to existing "record-like" class…

IBM has been, and still is, a big contributor to a bunch of Eclipse projects, as their own tools build on those. The people there were both really skilled, friendly and professiona…

I read the piece expecting precisely that; How to keep PII out of logs, which require a lot of adamant snipers with a lot of lead bullets. Passwords: Handled by IAM services. Token…

PHK’s piece assumes that there’s a clear and effective distinctions between the government and the juducial system: The police can’t wiretap unless authorized by a judge (this coul…

O(n^2) issues can typically be solved using keyed lookups, but I agree that the base processing speed is slow and the language really is too obscure to provide good DX. I worked wi…

More that half of Danish municipalities have equipped schoolkids with Chromebooks -- but some failed to limit which services thay could/should use and so effectively send the kids'…

Machine-translated from the source ( https://www.digmin.dk/digitalisering/nyheder/nyhedsarkiv/202... ): Denmark must become less dependent on the major tech giants when it comes to…

This is the actual source, but it's in Danish: https://www.digmin.dk/digitalisering/nyheder/nyhedsarkiv/202...

Considering just the office suites: Nearly all of state and local administration uses various 3rd party solutions which have bespoke Office add-ins and rely on close integration wi…

Exactly, the Ministry of Digitalization barks a lot louder than it bites - context here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44346549

Dane here. A lot of debate at the moment about digital sovereignty, with a very trusted ally threatening to annex Greenland while perhaps shifting its internal power structure (cou…

At least, in this case, the WAF in question had the decency to return 403. I've worked with a WAF installation (totally different product), where the "WAF fail" tell was HTTP statu…

So, no you don't need a "Microsoft-esque" company, you need independent service providers who just know their stuff. Today, a company ( any company!) with the proper skills CAN off…

The Eclipse Compiler for Java [1] is a notable exception, architected around incremental compilation, an API for “live” AST manipulation, and a layered non-batch approach to when t…

MBP M2 Max building hurl from clean: cargo build 42.55s user 4.35s system 748% cpu 6.269 total cargo build --release 99.38s user 4.13s system 267% cpu 38.660 total (I can really re…

By that logic, the worst possible recidivism rate (surely 100%) would make someone 1500x more likely to commit crime than a non-offender. That’s still a pretty good case for having…

Marvellous. I asked it: Which opinions do you tender? and Do you need a beefy GPU? The result really was food for thought.

But this is exactly that: Source code for a compiler integrating SIMD instructions into an intrinsic function.

Indeed, the two assembly variants are just of the 1600 byte block bit fiddling (keccakF1600). The outer loop of the Write method (function?) is the same for all architectures.
