I was curious and dug into the Go client code. You linked to the definition of KV – the easiest way to create one is with NewKV [1], which internally creates a RetryKV [2] wrapper …

If you want to precisely capture when a field must be present (or will always be set on the server), the field_behavior annotation captures more of the nuance than proto2's require…

If you use SharedArrayBuffers in worker threads, use Atomics.wait to block, and then terminate the worker which would've called Atomics.notify – yes, if no timeout is used on the n…

Looks like it does – you can add a rule to set the enabled option to false for all devDependencies. It’s the third example in the docs for the enabled option: https://docs.renovate…

and this gets me wondering; what could we accomplish if we took 0.2% of the time we spent writing (let alone reading) internet comments, and instead used that time to engage in our…

hey, fwiw, I don’t regret your raising it, and I appreciate that you’ve been engaging with me :) I would love for this thread to accomplish something other than meta rifraff, so — …

I would gladly say you’re welcome – yet I believe your edit exacerbates the issue you speak of a “secret” Made For iPhone program as if that’s still some conspiracy – https://mfi.a…
