Last time I checked quicklisp also didn’t support https and doesn’t do any signature checking.

The problem with methods like this is that there is no priority and rewards you for doing tasks that don’t actually matter. It’s better to do one really important thing per day tha…

Render to html and then use webkit2pdf which will give you a pdf that looks exactly like the html shown in chrome. This is a million times easier than working with PDF libraries

I always think of Randal shwartz when I think of people saying, “I’m an X language programmer”. You don’t want to be the last guy on earth that’s the expert in a dead language.

I just switched off of ledger because multiple accountants and tax preparers didn’t know what to do with it even if I hand generated profit and loss reports. Quickbooks online has …

I did something similar but not open source: centrallogging.com it is surprising how SQLite can scale for smallish amounts of logs (1tb)

It is called 2 factor or multi-factor authentication. It should be something you know (password) and something you have (device). Storing totp with your password defeats the entire…

Congrats on launching and building something. Unfortunately I think this is very bad for security. We have seen numerous accounts take overs from iMessage and sms based 2fa. This m…

My home IP doesn’t change much so I just open ssh port only to my own IP. If I travel I’ll add another IP if I need to ssh in. I don’t get locked out because I use VPS or cloud pro…

I’m still using if err == something. I’ve never bothered to use error.Is. Looks like another reason to avoid

This “SQLite isn’t good for production” mentality really needs to die. It’s a myth.

I thought we all quit when they disabled API access and ruined Apollo. People are still using Reddit?

If their latest “REST” API is an indication of their tech you don’t want to work there anyways.

I clicked the comments section hoping to see sivers response because I remember him mentioning it before. I’m glad I did.

Use virtual credit cards and privacy.com. It really helps with peace of mind that you can really have a free trial and not worry about it.

This is close to my stack which is a single Go binary, SQLite db and either OpenBSD or Linux with a side of htmx.

Take ruby vs go. Ruby can write expressions that resemble a sentence so you can skip commenting and it looks nice. Go is verbose and less English like. Which is easier to understan…

CenturyLink advertises that they don’t raise the rate and they STILL do it. Mine went from $50->$60 with no speed change. I don’t have the energy anymore to fight it. My alternativ…

In typed languages like go I don’t need to look at module imports linked to files for navigating. With the vim shortcut ‘gd’ I can immediately jump to the definition making this en…

Yeah it is still happening on fresh podman install as of a month or so. So many of my coworkers ran into the issue there is an internal wiki about it. The hwutil sync command thing…

Have they fixed the macOS time drift issue yet?

It is Go not golang. Golang is used for search it is not the name of the language.

One effect of this is that stocks historically average about 8% a year. As this gets closer to that number you can expect money from the stock market to start pouring into bonds. W…

No they are a non profit.

Except if you look at their financials they are paying a huge tax being a French company. Their resources would go further if they left.
