When I am just starting out a new project, usually I work on multiple things at once, like (in a web project) the routes, authentication, database models, etc. etc. So usually duri…

About map/area: Some websites still use them, and really well too. The Team Fortress 2 website[0] uses them with the images at the top of the page to link each of the characters' d…

Are you the original author of the article? The article itself seems to be experiencing issues right now, but from what I recall, the author mentions "extensible roles" and "good f…

Zed Shaw's books are seriously overrated.

Discord is also proprietary software and is backed by Tencent. Read the privacy policy, it might surprise you. Please try investing in Free, Open Source alternatives first.

No mention of Smalltalk in the comments? The "codebase" that is managed by ucm sounds very similar to Smalltalk images. I am personally delighted about this.

Seems like the site is suffering from the Slashdot effect.

I had to do a double take when I saw it.

>Nonetheless, Google's core service--providing unbiased, accurate, and free access to information--remains at the heart of the company. Hah!

It started out so great, but at the end I was left with the impression that someone was just trying to shoehorn features into C with quirkier syntax than C++. That type declaration…

Here I must praise KiCad. It is one of the best pieces of FOSS software out there. It beats almost all other (commercial or non-commercial) software in PCB design, hands down.

I have been waiting for a strongly typed mainstream high level language for a long time (TypeScript doesn't count because all type information is stripped during runtime). PHP stil…

The status page has updated to indicate that they misconfigured their firewall. Apparently their entire set of services go through a single firewall (or at least, multiple firewall…

Ironically, status.gitlab.com takes upwards of a minute to load on my end. I thought it was going to time out.

I can't find it on F-Droid, hopefully they get it on there soon. The main repo doesn't seem to have the Pocket spyware in the app yet, at least.

Unfortunately, if the hardware has a lot of issues the well-integrated experience seems to quickly fall apart. I can't really speak about the desktop side of Apple products but the…

You can probably use extended URL encoding for that, which is supported by at least body-parser [ https://npmjs.com/package/body-parser ]. Not sure about other PLs.

That means the algorithm's complexity is non-linear. I am suspecting the JScrush code currently but it could be somewhere else as well.

I guess you/someone could try a re-implementation.

This website has a very thorough Firefox de-bloat and anti-tracking guide: https://spyware.neocities.org/guides/firefox.html I find that some of those options are excessive, but it…

You should take the next step and switch to GNU/Linux. :o)

Heck, companies are already starting to use CNAME records to fool ad/content blockers. I don't think what you're describing is far from becoming reality.
