Does this deprecate TTLS records? I've only just begun to generate those

Instead of saying you're autistic, say you have autism. What you are is a human being, most likely. Having autism is just one of your traits. TL;DR Autism is what you've got, not w…

"Disorders"?! What's this, "person of color" instead of "black" or N*, that's all cool and agreeable, but then how on earth is "disorder" still okay? Bull.

Having used KDE 2, 3, skipped 4, and now 5, it's the most polished desktop environment I can think of. OSX is too weird and Windows is a hodgepodge of "GUI trend of the day". Not t…

Excel

The way I'd do this, is by separating concerns into separate tables. If you have a table with (id, name) and a table with (id, parent_id), any doc with a parent will have a corresp…

What's a good alternative? Preferably not in the US, preferably not biased towards (or against) any political agenda.

Why is it a list and not a table? Seems like a pretty simple case of CREATE TABLE ethics ( id INT PRIMARY KEY, rule TEXT );

Software tends to get thrown away after a few years. Nothing I've written as a professional programmer has survived the test of time. No regrets, though. Why would I carry the burd…

This won't be a thing in Holland. Not that it matters much, but just saying. https://translate.google.com/?sl=nl&tl=en&text=kut&op=transl...

Thanks but I prefer this one: https://sciops.net/downloads/vga/ ("The only font you'll ever need")

Linux always boots perfectly fine with TPM hardware support disabled, even when there actually is such a chip built in. The real showstopper would be if "SecureBoot" would be enfor…

Kids these days... Go read a book!

PHP: My own, so not known by anyone else ;) I made it because I don't like all the existing frameworks. That said, it uses Laminas Diactoros because not using that would be to rein…

This extension is pretty cool and I already found a bug. It doesn't work for elements whose font-family has been set with a !important flag. It would be crude to set font-family to…

IIRC, noatime is useful everywhere except /var/spool or /var/mail where certain daemons may depend on access time correctness.

This site provides a nice overview, cool. It makes me wonder though, because IMHO PHP is adding too much new features that are often somewhat half-baked. What would be better is to…

It's pretty cool actually that this is possible and I also can't help but think that this is a solution to a problem that need not exist in the first place. Systemd has this proble…

The way I deal with dependencies lately is I place them in a separate directory (called lib) right next to the project source itself (called src). So the project and its dependenci…

I wonder why this article got flagged. It's insightful and well written.
