I wasn’t aware that there were places that had semi-precious stones just lying around. Where are you from?

I have strongly negative connotations with rock tumblers. When I was about 8 I saw one in a store and thought it would turn regular rocks into precious stones. One of the biggest d…

I would assume that you could just search the heap by the value shown on the page to find out what the key is.

Rick Doblin recently went on a Joe Rogan podcast where he went more in depth about his experience with this.

What’s the difference between this and LogSnag?

I recently came across an amazing post that really emphasizes the dangers associated with installing npm packages. It seems that every week a new supply chain attack occurs. In my …

Yup, I agree with you about this. It’d be interesting to do a deep dive into a library like FingerprintJS and see what has the most weight in terms of uniqueness. Maybe getImageDat…

I found that on some elevators a quick double press cancels a selection.

There are sects (like the ultra orthodox) who don't use Sabbath mode specifically for this reason. They say that the added weight causes the elevator's motor to work harder thereby…

I haven't had an online comment resonate with me as much as this did in a very very long time.

He mentioned that the Linux-like kernel will be closed source which violates GPL

Thanks for your in depth explanation. The current structure for me is I have the main app which is responsible for previewing and making the edits to videos. This project does not …
