I miss the times when someone else made recommendations for you. Now I’m stuck with the same content, which I like( don’t get me wrong), but I’m pretty sure our view of music and movies is much narrower nowadays, when we’re no longer "forced" to experience different content.
We started a side project for ourselves and our agency clients, and recently made it public. It's a selfhosted chat, similar to WhatsApp or Signal. The app connects to your own server, so your data isn't stored in the cloud. It's still in alpha, but we're already having a lot of fun with it. After a decade of mostly building things for clients, it feels great to work on our own product. The business side isn't the main point for us, but we still end up talking about it for hours every day and enjoying the process again.
The U.S. CDC abruptly halted all collaboration with the WHO, impacting efforts to combat global health threats, including Marburg virus, mpox, and bird flu, per a leaked memo.
This may be true for the US, but the whole argument falls apart as soon as you remember the world is wider. Eg in Europe are suppressors often allowed with a special permit in my country, basically means army use only.
A short video of Russian espionage in Slovakia. Sergei Solomasov, a military attaché at the Russian embassy in Slovakia, pays 2x 500 euro to a pro-Russian journalist for making contact and bringing classified information.
Yes, Electron has a huge amount of problems (bundle size, speed, feeling, native APIs..) but all are solvable.
With a right approach, some Webassembly improvements and Webkit iterations all could vanish.
On the end of the day, Slack and Visual Code Studio are great apps from the user perspective while features, design and business model play much important roles in choosing the software compared to the underline tech stack.
Seven years ago I needed time for finishing a school project and wanted to look busy at work. The packages prints random messages to terminal, so you look like you are are in middle of some deployment job or npm install.
Also, I guess, it's needless to say, most of people don't have Docker already installed (unless your target audience is a dev-ops community). So it's not just "docker run".
I asked Kangjie Lu to explain the original complain. Here is his reply from Wednesday:

Thanks for sharing.
The statements in the link are wrong. I will make some clarifications.
1. We have never intentionally introduced any bugs in Linux.
2. The project that investigated the issues with OSS patching process was done in November 2020. We did get an IRB letter for the research. The purpose of the research is to improve the security of the OSS patching process.
3. One of my students is working on a different project which has nothing to do with the project mentioned in 2. The student aims to fix problems in Linux instead of introducing problems.
Seeing black / whitelists discussions I always wonder, if white color is racist also by containg all wavelengths, while black suffers by absencing visible light.
This also answers why goalies aren't huge fat guys.
As the rules limit how big a goalie's pad can be, a huge guy might take up a lot of space, but much of his body will be unprotected from 150+ km/h slap shots.
Everytime someone mentions UO, my heart start racing.
I spent several years within this world, met hundreds of friends I already forgot, tried countless tournaments, fights and lived so many memories.
Maybe it's just nostalgia, but this game showed me, what it means to love something you spend your free time with. Maybe it even transfered somehow to programming later on.
I started this two months ago and it's suppose to be a tool which helps me with personal planning. Sharing tasks with my wife, colleagues, friends and employees.
It's a side project and I still have a job, so I work during evenings and nights on it.
> In July and August 2020, government operatives used NSO Group’s Pegasus spyware to hack 36 personal phones belonging to journalists, producers, anchors, and executives at Al Jazeera. The personal phone of a journalist at London-based Al Araby TV was also hacked.
> The phones were compromised using an exploit chain that we call KISMET, which appears to involve an invisible zero-click exploit in iMessage. In July 2020, KISMET was a zero-day against at least iOS 13.5.1 and could hack Apple’s then-latest iPhone 11.
It seems that face recognition could be as dangerous as country laws are. China's social credit system is a strong mirror to its government. The Black Mirror scenario with all those people scared to even talk publicly could (if once real) be strongly country specific, if we get to the point, where life drastically depend on ethics of technology laws.
