Firefox 100 (at least) has an about:cache which doesn't give you most of the stats you want, but does give you some usage information anyway. The last-modified date it reports doesn't seem correct at least when looking at the disk cache.

To get the stats you want, you'd probably need to write a plugin using one of the hooks that lets you see all the requests (which are being phased out, but such is life).

Depending on your flows, you might be able to use <link rel="prefetch"> on a corporate home page to try to get things loaded, before users get to your app, although no guarantees of course.

It might be a good investment, but from my experience See's Candies is only good at packaging their mediocre products made with corn syrup. Before someone cites their FAQ: No, most of their candies do not have "cherry ingredients including glacé whole, glacé halves, and whole dipping cherries" sourced from a 3rd party supplier.

Theoretically Northern Ireland could join the Republic of Ireland and Wales and Scotland could both go independent, and then it’s definitely not a United Kingdom. What happens to the millions (?) of .co.uk websites?
Would they all have preferred to have had a salary while they built the company?
I am guessing yes.

The "problem" is to find the "right" people to give salaries to. VC theory today seems to say "the right people are so hungry / passionate / desperate that they will work for nothing to make their project succeed, therefore we don't have to pay salaries"

My conjecture is that far far more people will make good founders of good companies than the subset that will risk family ruin. So there is a real problem in that those people "should" be given a salary and told to found the company that will benefit the world. and VCs don't know how to find or find them

Adding onto that, from my understanding of the political situation, China has been repeatedly affirming that the country of Taiwan is not a country, but is actually a rogue province and fully part of China. If China were to take over Taiwan, then getting rid of the .tw domain would be one of the many symbolic ways it would strip Taiwan of its status as a sovereign nation, not to mention all the other material ways they would do so. It would probably not be immediate, because in the past, the process of removing domains has involved transition periods (i.e. moving from .yu to .me and .rs).
Datadog is one of the worst offenders in this one. It's like they actually want to get you into that situation. Wanna see your prepaid capacity? Lol, email our support.

Can you custom design parts with pinouts for your 2008 thinkpad?

If not, I'm not sure I believe you know what you are talking about - its nice lenovo (in past) has been so rugged, repairable, but using reverse engineered parts is a very different thing to a set of components that can be extended.

Put it like this - can you put a lenovo part on a framework laptop? No? Why?

Until you can, Framework is in a whole different category....
No, this is the rhetoric that one political side pushes because it's convenient. Meanwhile the data shows almost all the housing is owned by either Canadian citizens or corporations. It also shows Canada will rely exclusively on immigrants for population growth by 2030 - it would end up with an aging population and no one to pay the taxes supporting pensions if they didn't. Most of Vancouver is zoned for single/dual families only so it's impossible to construct more housing. Of course prices rise when they don't let supply rise to match demand

The branded products (EmergenC and such) come with more of a markup

But Vitamin C in general is an extremely cheap compound. The costs are going to be in things like packaging, shipping, warehousing, shelf space, accounting for lost shipments and returns, and similar overhead. For simple products that overhead can be orders of magnitude more than the core product.
Just finished this and came here to mention it. Amazing, beautiful and sad book.

Aren't the fees dependent on the velocity of Bitcoin, and not the market cap?

There's some dependence in the fees, since they'll be paid in Bitcoin, and that there's still the odd new Bitcoin being made, but you're still being paid per transaction, unrelated to the value of the bitcoins in the transaction

I had a close friend who worked on a project where they brought this guy in. Charged $1m a month and invoiced his jet fuel to the company, if I remember correctly. Now you know where the $30M actually went.

The article is an example of insufferably authoritative articles about “design thinking” combined with pseudo-science (the heat map image). You don’t need to know any of that, to know that Peter Arnell was an idiot and his design was utter junk.

It depends on if the company commits to integration the company and customers rather than a simple shutdown or aquihire.

Tf the customers still have service without too much interruption, then we should celebrate because a larger organization can amortize the operational cost and ensure the product can live much longer without relying on founder heroics.
My reading of that event is to buy some Netflix stock at some point. They started a chain reaction with bad news but as far as I'm aware they might have been able to raise their prices in exchange for a relatively small amount of their customers.

Mon 16 May 2022 07:19:26 AM CEST

In either case, if the network connection is interrupted, the download is finished. How would sh know it's not the whole script as the author intended it? Remember that in a pipeline the receiving end only sees the pipe, and won't know about the exit status of the process upstream (which may for all we know be zero anyway).

I used a TP from the 2013, 2014 era, and I have my current main laptop as a TP from 2017...

The old TP was fantastic. Really out of date hardware, but it did the job. New one is great, in theory (spec-wise), but its a much cheaper build, breaks more, and just generally has far more issues than I remember with the old one. I think I had one in the middle too which was just straight up an awful peice of junk...

When Lenovo got bought out by China, they weren't really that smart - they tried to consumerize their TP and thereby cut costs - the features they brought back to modern TPs are still nice but you just don't get the same attention to detail anymore...IMHO.
Went looking for a comment about this, seems like there is a Taiwan TLD[1] but that's definitely a different situation. I can't even think of a good general system for this that isn't open to one powerful country or a group of countries having control over what other areas are considered countries and which aren't. I definitely agree with the other comments about how having a TLD ultimately isn't as big a deal as the other consequences of being denied statehood though

It's interesting that this downside wasn't even on the radar of this article in 2011, and indeed no serious consideration of possible downsides was presented at all, just a snide dismissal that "anyone who has tangled with the anti-fluoride campaign will realise that lithium lobbyists will have a long, hard road to travel."

There is a flaw in your logic. A rise in border apprehensions can be for multiple mutually inclusive reasons, only one of them is an influx in total migrants. Other possibilities include more border agents, better patrol equipment and intelligence, stricter border laws, fewer avenues for legal migrations (hence OP). This could even be because of some mundane changes in how these numbers are tallied, categorized, or published between years.
I'm a fairly large man and tried using Hoka One One running shoes for a while. They were extremely unpleasant. The thick cushioned sole made them feel unstable and wobbly. But others in the local club love them, so who knows.
I'm sure you've probably tried everything but the thing that helped me the most was being extremely strict about forcing myself to wake up and sleep at regular times (even if I wasn't feeling tired. A little melatonin can help with that). Also, restricting screen time before bed. For the first week it's really tough especially when you have a lot of other things going on in life, but you'll quickly notice gradual improvements - like sleeping at 1am instead of 2 or 3am.

A coworker and I basically built review apps on top of hubot interactions with the Heroku API before review apps existed. It was probably the work of about two weeks to get right.

Yes, it’s automation you have to own, but it changed very little once it was done and provided phenomenal value. I wouldn’t let those features hold you back from exploring other options.

An issue not mentioned in this is that at the office it is routine to MITM TLS connections, what some call "TLS inspection".[FN1]

There are important reasons for performing TLS inspection aside from "developers testing their smartphone app" or "security research".

An employer should want to see the contents of what is traversing the employer's network. The employer owns the network so she gets to decide.

A home computer user should want to see the contents of what is traversing the home computer user's network. The home computer user owns the network so she gets to decide.

Anything, apps from "tech" companies, that interferes with the ability of the network owner to see the contents of that traffic is a threat.

FN1.

For months I was wondering if they were intentionally boosting stats by playing videos after I scrolled them out of sight on my phone. I finally @‘ed them on Twitter and it got fixed a few days later.

I don’t know if this anecdote is in their favor or not, but “works” is a pretty broad category and “works well” is really up to interpretation. I’m glad they fixed it, having random videos blast out loud at me with no intention of watching them was really upsetting! But as far as I know the previous behavior was “working” too.
But Indont think this is about "some guy came up with a crap design". It strikes me a number of things went badly

1. I think C-level execs at major corporations should have built up immunity against such bullshit.

2. The heatmap (plus the associated idea of lots of consumer testing) should have spotted something

3. the rollout seems to have been global
and immediate, instead of for example testing the new packaging out in say tiny geographical markets first

All of this reeks of failing to have rock solid product management (and release mgmt) at its core. Maybe we will find out more, but in the end, the loss was manageable, sales recovered and maybe the company learnt its lessons - would be interesting to hear what process and people changes occurred the days after ?
Do you know if there's similar to a VST standard for WAM?

Would be interested in the possibility of online DAWs that can import plugins and open up for marketplaces where developers can build and publish these.
Perhaps just using an embedded DB would be better in your case? Something like Berkeley DB. Alternatively, just Dockerize it, although I assume it's too much upkeep.

While not as "Redis-y", there are some decent KV-ish managed databases out there:

- Cloudflare Workers KV
- DynamoDB
- Bigtable

Eh? I'm not mining anything on anything, just pointing out what the commenter I replied to left out.

If power is free then any hashrate is profitable. With "typical" power prices you basically need ASICs. In the middle there are myriad possibilities, and many miners have access to very cheap power (eg during hydro gluts in monsoons).

I think, even though the company gets acquired, the service to the customers never really ends. I take it more like a retirement, you proudly build something, you are happy about it, now you want to either slow down with your work, take a break or move on.

I might be wrong in understanding this, but I think if they made it to the point where other companies could consider acquiring them, it should get celebrated :)
My only experience with gradual typing is in Dart and I was surprised that I got runtime errors around types that should have been correct. I don't follow Typescript but guessing its a wild success because it checks your types and gradual typing is a way to incrementally adopt the language. Regarding wasting time, type inference takes a lot of boilerplate out of the strictly typed code.
This is a much pithier way of putting what I said elsewhere in this thread about "frog boiling themselves out of an audience"

I’ve worked from home for 23 years out of my 25 year career. I guess we’ll see if I change my mind at year 30 :)

Any benefit you get from the office environment you can replicate on your own. I think that what people like the most about working from home is the absolute lack of commuting. I wouldn’t mind working in an office provided that office was no more than a mile away from my home, and I could comfortably walk there. But it’s really difficult to hire all your employees such that they live close to the same office. Conversely, the wider a net you can cast the more likely you are to find the employees that you need.

I see people who like the social aspects of an office. You can get that by socializing with people in your neighborhood. Get together for lunch regularly and you’ll soon have good friends that you won’t lose as soon as you change jobs.

I see that others like to be away from their families for a time, so that they can concentrate. Feel free to have an office space that isn’t directly connected to your home; just keep it in your neighborhood. Where I live there are dozens or hundreds of small offices in the commercial center that are rented out one room at a time. Usually they’re used by local lawyers and insurance agents and such, but there’s no reason you can’t rent one instead.

Everyone should work out exactly what their commute costs them. You can save a lot of money, especially if you can get rid of a car. Are the benefits you’re getting really so unique and irreplaceable that the expense and wasted hours are worth it?
It all depends on the war. If Russia can defeat the NATO then .su might be useful again.. ;)

Exactly. Unless your brand is in trouble or you are trying to deflect the attention from some sort of scandal the odds of losing existing customers from a successful business is far higher than the odds of attracting new customers because you have changed your packaging.
It's a union of three kingdoms, or 2-and-a-bit kingdoms:

England and Wales (927)

+ Ireland (1802)
- most of Ireland (1922), leaving only Northern Ireland

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland would probably change its name if Scotland seceded, but perhaps to the United Kingdom of England and Wales and Northern Ireland. The official ISO code (GB) would change (EI? EW?) but the reserved code (UK) need not.
