Ain't it cute 'splaining what redis is designed for to the person who designed it

Very cool project and would be super useful with something like GraphQL, which tends to produce big nested JSON objects. Thanks for sharing it! One improvement in my eyes would be …

The "two big mobile platforms" were not established by an irreversible act of God. Before the current time of two platforms, there was a time of (mostly-)one platform i.e. the Web,…

Isn't 4k+1/4k-1 rule trivial though? If we take any number K=N*4 divisible by 4 and >2, that'd be an even number by definition. The two closest odd numbers on either side would be …

Ever tried playing something like (multiplayer) Quake with an Apple trackpad? I used to win online matches with the trackpoint. Once you get use to it, the difference in speed and …

Totally understandable. I'm a trackpoint junkie, but I also could not get to using it on an HP laptop from work. It felt completely gimped (and yes, having just 2 buttons was proba…

Word! PWAs are awesome (for a lot of usecases), and I don't quite get how they are not becoming a center pillar of mobile development.

Install atop and configure it to sample every second. I can't count the number of times this has helped solve a mysterious behavior. Atop is king.

I'm using Firefox fulltime, both on my work and my personal machine. The two things I'd love to see are: - Fix the ever-growing memory usage on Linux - Make it the best platform fo…

Sorry, my statement indeed got confusing. I'm using LiveView for online interactions. I'm using PouchDB + JS for data synchronization and enabling offline work. You are right that …

WebPush is the feature that I'm missing. See https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/114503

I'm happily using Phoenix+LiveView for a website that works as a PWA. This also includes offline mode with sync-when-internet-is-available functionality (thanks PouchDB!). This cov…

Same here. The first time I hear that containers are hard-linked with Kubernetes in anyone's mind. Docker standalone was used for a long time before Kuberbetes was a thing. AWS, Az…

Same here. Fixed by deleting the traefik pods. The underlying Deployment regenerated them and a new cert was obtained.

Please stop suggesting that SQL Injections are a sanitization problem. They are a problem of escaping in the application constructing the query, not a problem with whatever the use…

Insightful conversations at https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/pull/608 - the original vulnerability patch. Most JNDI lookups are disabled, except for JAVA and _LDAP(S)_. Wha…

So the answer is pills that can damage your health while having no long-lasting benefit? One other hidden cost - all the body of knowledge (courses, tutorials, books, blog posts, e…

I haven't really tested it in court, though I did get the official correspondence that leads up to it. Friendly law practitioner had suggested that I really don't stand a chance. N…

More like gym, "clubs" (Verein-s), mobile phone, internet, electricity, etc. It's an established contractual practice, and e.g. Telekom are not in any way obligated to notify you w…

Here in Germany, physical businesses have even more egregious subscription policies than most "dark" SaaS-es. Think, you do not cancel 3 months before expiration date - congrats, y…

> Just. Fucking. Let. People. Instantly. Use. Your. Full. Product. I love that - and that's how I aim to build things now. Excalidraw has few calls to external domains as well - ju…

Getting the 3-way TCP handshake and decrementing TTL is quite easy to get right. Those are very much foundational properties of the respective protocols. We are not talking about o…

We are talking about following well understood and published standards, such as TCP and IP. The people implementing those stacks were either negligent, or were consciously cutting …
