It's still there!

You might want to take a look at https://www.graalvm.org/webassembly . Runs on JDK25 and has very good guest host interop.

Yeah, this was the first thing that came to mind, how does this compare to the Truffle WASM implementation. The Graal Polyglot API is pretty incredible, we've been using it for a J…

I think it's Claude, yeah.

Same for me, I used it as a welcome opportunity to get rid of the Reddit habit, which was surprisingly easy. I haven't gotten much useful content out of it for quite some time.

I've been using a Logitech trackball for two years now and they're incredibly easy to clean and don't accumulate much dirt on the surface (since they're very smooth), just a little…

Isn't this like the #1 problem people have with wireguard? I've had clients with the MTU issue every time I've set it up for more than a few clients. Also how on earth is "connecti…

Had the same experience using it for a refactor of a 3k LOC monolith via the Pi harness and OpenRouter. After burning through $8 worth of tokens it left the code in a broken state,…

We're doing this with a few dozen GiBs of logs a day (rsylog -> central rsylog -> elasticsearch). It works reliably, but the config is an absolute nightmare, documentation is a mix…

Absolutely, it's probably the most consumer-friendly and reliable part of all of the Bahn services. Personnel is usually pretty great too, and that despite them having to suffer th…

It's pretty much the norm in all "proper" German techno/electronic music clubs I've been to, Berlin and elsewhere.

Yup. I pay for YouTube, but not being able to disable shorts made me use ReVanced.

On the other end of the spectrum, "experimental artist" (whatever that is) Lawrence English wrote "A Young Person's Guide to Hustling (in Music and the Arts", which seems more like…

Yup, it's great, at least for live action content. I've found that for Anime, a small amount of motion interpolation is absolutely needed on my OLED, otherwise the content has horr…

Also not like logging setups outside of k8s can't be a horror show too. Like, have you ever had to troubleshoot a rsyslog based ELK setup? I'll forever have nightmares from debuggi…

Agree, the lack of support for TTF fonts is a bummer for most non-english use cases:-/

Am I in the minority when I actually like those AI features on GitHub? The ability to interrogate any open source codebase is __amazing__, this feature alone has saved me days of w…

It really is. I've been using Revanced to patch out the Shorts feature on my phone, works decently well, but I'm technically violating the ToS with that, despite shelling out 15€/m…

I tried implementing a Matrix bot a few months back, and it was an absolutely miserable experience, since Device Verification/E2EE was not working with any of the available open so…

100% this. Sometimes it's not even the filer itself. `hard` NFS mounts on clients in combination with network issues have led to downtimes where I work. Soft mounts can be a soluti…

Does anybody remember Cocoon? It was an XSLT Web Framework that built upon Spring. It was pretty neat, you could do the stuff XSLT was great at with stylesheets that were mapped to…

As somebody traveling with small children, what's even more frustrating is that AirBnB seems to have a tag "Well reviewed by families", but refuses to allow you to search for it. W…

It's funny, because I remember the early days of Jepsen, and it relied heavily on memes (the whole name is based on "call me maybe"/carly rae jepsen) and aphyr wasn't (and still is…

Thanks, I hate it. While it's nice syntactic sugar, the difference between an SQL injection vulnerability and a properly parametrized query is now a single letter that's easily mis…
