TwoMinutePapers is a well-established YouTube channel that does a great job of explaining new scientific techniques/advancements (usually in the areas of computer science and graphics). Do you actually have anything to say about the content of the video?

No better way to test the permissions system in your app than hosting a public demo.

This is why many languages have errors and warnings as separate things. Errors for things that for sure prevent the program from working, and warnings for things that are probably wrong but don’t prevent things from working. If you have a setting to then treat warnings as errors (like for CI checks), then you get all the guarantees and none of the frustration.

A lot of good suggestions in this post, but the only real answer here in Minecraft Dungeons (only half joking).

This was a really good talk! I’ve been using git for about a decade, but I learned several new things. Here’s a few:

  • Sorting git log by committer date
  • Speeding up common operations on bigger repos with git maintenance
  • More useful file blame with the -C flag on git blame

People aren’t going to do it, the platforms that 95% of people use (Facebook, Tik Tok, YouTube, Instagram) will have to add the functionality to their video players/posts. That’s the only way anything like this could be implemented by the 2024 US election.

Are you familiar with the concept of “atomicity” in relation to database systems? It’s actually a very appropriate term, and the article touches on its use over “immutable”.

So a bit of both.

Would Homebrew work for this? I use it in WSL for all my CLI programs.

A year later, Microsoft revealed it’d built an Azure-hosted, OpenAI-co-designed supercomputer that at the time was among the most powerful machines in the world.

I don’t think you can co-create a supercomputer with a company and not be deeply involved with them. Combine that with the inherent power Microsoft has because of their money, and I think it’s pretty easy to see how they could exercise control indirectly.

Mmm, gimme that salty sodium light.

Same. I only got through day 3 last year since I didn’t have time to do both the learning and the solving. I think I need a longer term project to give me more focus when learning a new language. This year I’m just sticking with my usual language Elixir, which I always enjoy.
