The original design intention of this approach was that wallet apps were independant and interchangable, with any wallet app able to talk to any attestation provider, to get age at…

The PLC keys are normally intended to be held by your current PDS. Not a hard protocol requirement, but without it, certain things like migrating to a custom domain handle cannot b…

Yeah, an agent should run with permissions no greater than that of the user on whose behalf it is executing, and ideally with less permissions. This is the scenario that is easier …

Yep. Thrashing is a well known known issue that can occur with swap, but it can also happen from page cache or memory mapped files. Indeed not having swap enabled can make things w…

In theory, sure, an identity verifier could issue you you a bunch of single use JWTs signed by them that contain `{"over18":"true", "nonce": 12748583..., "iss": " "}`, signed by th…

I'd argue they are not commutive in regexes either, at least as implemented in practice. Implemented regexes favor the leftmost alternative even when both sides of the alternative …

If the compiler can find any operation prior to the null check that would be UB if the value is null (even if it is something that in assembly would be harmless, like performing po…

A combined MPU and MCU architecture isn't that exotic. ST microelectronics currently sells a single chip with that contains a two core Cortex A7 Microprocessor combined with a micr…

I must be missing something, since I'm not really sure that follows. Initially neither AV nor AR models knows anything about how activations map to explanations or how explanations…

Yeah, as far as I know, you need to define a customized theme to customize pie chart colors. You can prepend the chart with initialization logic like: %%{init: {"theme": "base", "t…

> I think many people already mentioned it, but I also don't feel to good about non-boxed unions not being the default. I'd personally like the path of least resistance to lead to …

Cost tracking is used if you connect claude code with an api key instead of a subscription. It powers the /cost command. It is tricky to meaningfully expose a dollar cost equivlent…

Right. Claude models seem to have had very limited prohibitions in this area baked in via RLHF. It seems to use the system prompt as the main defense, possibly reinforced by an api…

The file locking approach is one used by centralized version control systems, and are mostly used in the everybody commits directly to trunk style of development. In those environm…

Sure but the real concern of the article that if passed "gid://moneymaker/Invoice/22ecb3fd-5e25-462c-ad2b-cafed9435d16" the global id locator will effectively locate "gid://moneyma…

Chrome desktop has just landed enabled by default native HLS support for the video element within the last month. (There may be a few issues still to be worked out, and I don't kno…

Chrome has finally just landed enabled by default native HLS playback support within the past month. See http://crrev.com/c/7047405 I'm not sure what the rollout status actually is…

> COM is just 3 predefined calls in the virtual table. COM can be as simple as that implementation side, at least if your platforms vtable ABI matches COM's perfectly, but it also …

BBFC's rulings have legal impact, and they can refuse classification making the film illegal show or sell in the UK. over in the US, getting an MPAA rating is completely voluntary.…

Yeah, proving correct is not a panacea. If you have C code that has been proven correct with respect to what the C Standard mandates (and some specific values of implementation def…

I'm confused by your perspective. The simplest (and arguably best) usage for a devcontainer is simply to set up a working development environment (i.e. to have the correct version …

Might be worth checking out Tidal's Mondo Notation, which while not quite Haskell syntax is far closer to it, being a proper functional style notion, that unifies with mini notatio…

Phonics based reading is all about sounding out unknown words. The idea is that the student would understand if somebody else read the text out loud, so if we can teach the kids ho…
