vscode's "Unicode Highlight: Non-basic ASCII" causes the character to get highlighted. Sadly, the more appropriate "Unicode Highlight: Invisible Characters" setting does not reveal…

I'm not seeing anything in the protocol that stops the first human from paying for the resource and then sharing their macaroon+preimage with everyone else. Normally, I'd account f…

That's way better than anything I've seen. I get a 79.50$/mo quote with a $1000 deductible from Trupanion for my 2yr old dog. Which is why we've never picked it up. The $250 deduct…

I’m not clear why this recommends using required on everything - I though protobuf v3 had removed that and made everything default to 0 (or equivalent) if not present on the wire.

Thanks for the encouragement to look up lisp's numeric tower ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_tower ), that was interesting to compare to the languages I'm more familiar w…

That's what I thought, but I assumed with the rollback an hour plus ago, it wouldn't still be happening. That was off a build just a few minutes ago (actually repeated it in betwee…

We are seeing an npm install failure inside our docker builds pointing at a github URL with a SHA change. Is this possibly related? #15 [dev-builder 4/7] RUN --mount=type=secret,id…

re: your PS - it will depend on the school district, but my daughter’s high school is significantly extending their day. They were allowed to leave this year at 225 (with an option…

The law does actually - you can have zero period but it can’t count towards the instructional time required for students. It’s actually deeply annoying for my daughter’s high schoo…

Do you have an example of what that looks like? The video posted above doesn't have any conversation happening in the slack channel and doesn't close the PR.

In games it is definitely nice to have. I’ve built multiple online trading/collectible card games and it’s a necessity for those. Don’t want your players predicting what cards will…

It does say that it has to be in code, but then it goes on to talk about copying in an ssid at runtime and commenting on typing in an ssid even in the last sentence. I was hoping t…

I believe this is misunderstanding how the entitlement works. My belief is that you submit the list of SSIDs to Apple at the time of app review and it can only be changed with an u…

Second that. Only thing I’ve seen in the studios I’ve worked at for game clients. Here and there I see game servers moving into git if they aren’t sharing a codebase with the clien…
