As someone who has been on a maintenance team for years and regularly has to dig through the history to figure things out, I strongly prefer the original "bad" version with 7 individual commits. Yes "git blame" takes a little bit of extra work to get through all the commits, but knowing what initial mistakes were made and refactors done makes it much easier to tell what the original intent was.

For example, if "fix bob review", "fix alice review", or "minor" introduced something that wasn't noticed until later, by having them separate we can tell whether it was intended functionality or a bug. This has happened to us a whole bunch of times with rarely seen edge cases, so the bug wasn't found until years later, or some other part of the code was masking the issue so it didn't manifest as a bug until years later. At least one of these was even caused in a "linting" commit, and all of these were much more easily fixable because we could tell the bug was introduced in one of these code-review-update commits, rather than the core feature commit.
OP is referring to the ZX-81, the tape loading/saving reliability was much improved in the Spectrum.

What exactly are you asking for here? A import/export tool to move all data between the two? AFAIK, both use Git already, so moving the actual code would be trivial and already possible.
I've been using an NPM package called rss-url-finder [1] in my blog search engine project to find the RSS link. It works relatively well, but still fails sometimes. For now I end up manually searching the source code of the HTML page for .xml or similar link.

The purpose of the McDonalds app seems to be to replace cashiers. I assume the Taco Bell app was created for the same reason.
Why are tools using hardcoded lists of WHOIS servers?

Seems there is a standard (?) way of registering this in DNS, but just from a quick test, a lot of TLDs are missing a record. Working example:

dig _nicname._tcp.fr SRV +noall +answer

_nicname._tcp.fr. 3588 IN SRV 0 0 43 whois.nic.fr.

Edit:

There's an expired Internet Draft for this: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-sanz-whois-srv-0...
Glad to see it’s being actively worked on!
lots of fast food have apps that track purchasing and give you coupons or deals that you can't get just ordering in the store now. It's like loyalty cards for McDonald's or tb.
No, I'm not referring to the speaker of the EU parliament, I am referring to the president of the European Commission, which is right now Ursula von der Leyen. She was appointed by the EU parliament and not democratically elected.

The EU leaders makes things as confusing as they are able to, in order to be able to do what they please without the population understanding much, but she (von der Leyen) is very much promoted as being a "real president", acts like a "real president" in foreign affairs. It is only when pointed out that they are not democratically elected that people start making excuses that the EU president is not a "real president".

Which way is it? I think the rulers of Europe want to have it both ways, so that they can smoothly direct their subjects as they please.
I understood that to mean "I've tried doing it x way and it didn't work because y." rather than the functional part. At that point, why not keep the documentation together with the code?
I love weird digital cameras and have a collection of them. For me personally they’re the equivalent of how some people nerd out over old film cameras or different types of film. I absolutely love the early 00s aesthetic that the crappy cameras gave, and how each one has their own look thanks to different choices of compromises to capture the data in the limited tech of the time.
None of these are true for the MitM threat model that caused this whole investigation:

- If someone manages to MitM the communication between e.g. Digicert and the .com WHOIS server, then they can get a signed certificate from Digicert for the domain they want

- Whether you yourself used LE, Digicert or another provider doesn't have an impact, the attacker can still create such a certificate.

This is pretty worrying since as an end user you control none of these things.
Achievements are baubles and trinkets. They are neither necessary nor sufficient for something to be a game.

And I don’t know if you’re aware, but a vast amount of Sims players use the game to build and decorate houses and then play out stories in them. The Sims dying is not. A lose condition, but the final page of their story.
I think the problem with simple is that people that don't know what they are doing are too tempted to just copy the simple everywhere, not knowing when to stop.

Then when you reach the point where you need to change the simple to something more complex, you realize that there's 249 places where you need to change that simple thing, and management is unwilling to take that risk just to prevent potential problems down the road, so the simple thing slowly grows to 984 places, when a massive, massive incident happens, and suddenly it becomes the highest priority to fix. Joy.

In my experience, the _only_ time to make things complex is right from the start.
In Europe (in my case, Spain), it was the door to enter to computer science for a lot of children.

And personally for me, it was too the door to thinking about something like as free software. Because when I was a child, I remember my frustration with my small games coded in basic, they were terrifyingly slow. And I wondered why...and decades ago when I knew the free software philosophy, I finished with my pain about these remembers.

Not sure why almost all of Tennessee is unavailable, but I can say that their prices here have risen astronomically. Our Taco Bell used to have a line around the building pretty consistently, now it’s essentially empty all the time.
> and therefore you conclude that the world is non-local.

No, Bell's inequality has a few sensible assumtions, like locality. The conclusion is that at least one of them is wrong and real world is a sensible one :(. By the way, there is this crazy thing call QM that nobody likes but gives accurate results.
Great story and a great composer.
every employer that has quotas for non-white employees? that necessarily follows.

I've also written that kind of comments, and then promptly had it refactored by people not reading comments.
Usually it's just who the franchisor is. Different owners have different philosophies. Every Taco Bell around me is operated by the same guy and is expensive regardless of economic condition, but most of the Taco Bells around it are much more reasonable despite some being in higher-cost-of-living areas.

Pärt! I may place him after Bach as one of the rare composers who really captures something about the Universe/Creation itself and not just “feelings” (happy/sad/etc). His music goes beyond just being human. I listen to him about once a month when I feel like imagining myself as a deer walking across an iced-over lake completely alone yet warm with the Presence of the Maker.
> Since we cannot make exact predictions it’s better to make methods as small as possible instead

No, please don't. Separate your functions based on what they're doing, not an arbitrary line count. If it takes 50 lines to do what's necessary, a 50 line function is absolutely fine.

You know what isn't fine? One operation split into 50 different subroutines that are all useless on their own unless composed together in order.

Make your interfaces small, not your functions.

Thank you for clarifying. That is indeed much more worrying.

If we were able to guarantee NO certificate authorities used WHOIS, this vector would be cut off right?

And is there not a way to, as a website visitor, tell who the certificate is from and reject/distrust ones from certain providers, e.g. Digicert? Edit: not sure if there's an extension for this, but seems to have been done before at browser level by Chrome: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2018/04/distrust-o...
> However, there are far more people being creative and generating "things" with a computer now than when the ZX was available.

I think you miss the point. While there are professional programs to do X, overall usability went down because people cannot (due to complexity, are not allowed to) write glue code. Yes, these professional programs can sometimes be "programmed" visually, but it's inside the niche.

Moreover, the real productivity requires desktop and cannot be reproduced on mobile devices.

I had the same setup and was dissapointed with OAuth/OpenID Connect same as you, as there is NO way to make that work with modern flows. Your only option is to use the implicit flow and store refresh/access token in localStorage.

The "modern" code flow involves a piece of backend code that performs the exchange of the code for tokens - and you are actually not supposed to make those token available to the (insecure) browser.

A structural engineer has to get it right the first time, or people may get hurt. Nobody is going to lose their life if a SWE has some inefficient code duplication in their POC that is tested by a maximum of 5 people. There is a time for improving your work and making it more robust, reliable, and efficient — but that can often be done iteratively. Code is malleable, just don’t let it fester and rot forever if you continue to build on top of it, or you will be drowning in tech debt.
U.S. labor is expensive, and the app delegates the order-taking job from an employee to the customer, keeping food prices more competitive and/or keeping the restaurant profitable. (Land cost is the other big expense.)

What will you use to view logs, Notepad? Well, you could use the #1 most popular text editor that Microsoft happens to develop, VSCode. Or a wide array of Windows GUI software that isn’t available on Linux, like Notepad++.

The fact that your IT department has those specific policies in place and is inflexible with your developers isn’t really relevant to this discussion. The truth is that if you wanted PowerShell on Linux it is trivial to install. Microsoft even publishes Linux images that already include PowerShell.

> The US government this week announced the removal of “unnecessary degree requirements” in favor of skills-based hiring as part of an aggressive push to fill half-a-million open cybersecurity jobs.

> The ‘Serve for America’ initiative, announced by National Cyber Director Harry Coker, removes the four-year degree requirement in federal IT contracts and will push agencies to hire based on experience, certifications, and aptitude tests.

I'd guess that only a tiny fraction of the (claimed) half-a-million cybersec openings are under direct Federal control. Vs. contractors, state agencies, etc. - all of which may have their own "4 year degrees" requirements, whether formally or informally.

Anyone familiar with this space?
The organist/math teacher sat down with a few loose pipes, a pencil, and paper, and helped Lawrence figure out why. When Lawrence understood, it was as if the math teacher had suddenly played the good part of Bach's Fantasia and Fugue in G Minor on a pipe organ the size of the Spiral Nebula in Andromeda the part where Uncle Johann dissects the architecture of the Universe in one merciless descending ever mutating chord, as if his foot is thrusting through skidding layers of garbage until it finally strikes bedrock.
At my last job, the workflow was mostly merge based instead of rebasing. After you create a branch, you merge from develop of there’s anything new you want or to resolve conflict. And the whole PR will be squashed and merged (there’s an ID referring to the ticket). Force pushing to an open PR was frowned upon.

I think it reflected the email based approach a bit better as you can’t alter the first patch you sent, only send new ones. So even if the history of a PR is messy, we preserve its chronological aspect alongside the discussion.

> You usually show a pupil the problem with classical probabilities, and show that you can't violate Bell's Inequalities, then you show that Quantum Mechanics managed to replicated the observed probabilities using a non-local way, and therefore you conclude that the world is non-local.

If you do this you're doing a bad job at being a teacher.

The way the argument should go is you start with a list of assumptions (of which locality is one), derive Bell's inequality from them, and determine that as Bell's inequality seems to be false in real experiments at least one of your assumptions was wrong. Then you can talk about quantum mechanics and explain which of these assumption are broken in quantum mechanics. If you have time you can have fun talking about different interpretations of quantum mechanics because (e.g.) Everettian Many Worlds is completely local, but still produces predictions matching quantum mechanics (and therefore breaks Bell's inequality).
How is toddler immortality relevant? A failure state exists. If toddler-only households are viable, that’s just a design oversight, which is an unrelated issue.

I totally get that your solution works for you and that is fantastic. I’m only questioning the pure logic behind it when you strip away opinion/preferences.

You picking one OS that you’re okay with modifying but the other one you’re not. If we inversed that preference and said that I’m willing to modify my Linux containers but unwilling to install software on my Windows VM, the logic is the same.

By the way, Microsoft publishes Linux images that already have PowerShell pre-installed.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/insta...

So, technically, if your build scripts were 100% PowerShell you could have it where both Windows VMs and Linux docker images could be unmodified.

Since your build scripts sound overly complex, they could possibly benefit from a scripting language that’s got support for objects and object data pipelines, more advanced error handling, and more advanced object parsing than tools like sed and awk.

Just playing “devil’s advocate” here, the logic checks out.
Essentially yes, except they make it when you arrive (at least if you pick up in the drive through). This is good design, because food from Taco Bell has an expiration date of about 3 minutes after it's cooked.
