Lol chill, I use Firefox. I can still call out good things in other browsers even if I don’t like the browser as a whole for other reasons. None of what I said there was in support of chromium.

Brave can make micro payments to content creators based on the number of views to the site, directly supporting content creators without ads or the need to join the patreon for each creator. It’s a fully optional system, off by default but prompted upon opening the browser for the first time. It’s a cool idea but they kind of spoiled it by making it be a crypto wallet with ads to earn the crypto.
Also, Brave doesn’t have a subscription…?
Honestly, despite the crypto, good on Brave browser for trying to subvert the advertising model by providing an actual monetization alternative
Yeah, never thought about this before, but how do blind users deal with captchas?
Actually, this isn’t true. Apple has a vested interest in cross platform Swift. They’ve been pushing hard for Swift on Linux because they want Swift to run on servers, and they’re right to. Look at how hard JavaScript dominates on the server-side because of one language everywhere.
What’s wrong with Business Insider? Genuine question
I believe they’re referring to lower down in the article, where the researchers analyzed existing extensions on the marketplace:
After the successful experiment, the researchers decided to dive into the threat landscape of the VSCode Marketplace, using a custom tool they developed named ‘ExtensionTotal’ to find high-risk extensions, unpack them, and scrutinize suspicious code snippets.
Through this process, they have found the following:
- 1,283 with known malicious code (229 million installs).
- 8,161 communicating with hardcoded IP addresses.
- 1,452 running unknown executables.
- 2,304 that are using another publisher’s Github repo, indicating they are a copycat.
I tried it in rust last year, made it through like 5 days? It just took too long :(
The only case I use snippets for is for debug code that I use often. Sometimes there are things I find myself doing a lot for debugging that don’t have any reason to be in code (e.g. nicely formatting certain objects for debug purposes)
Yeah but it’s awful, and can only install UWP apps which are just plain bad
Since I saw [email protected], just wanted to let you know about my own [email protected] (4k subs, but not too many posts lately).
SSH will definitely break, I’ve had this issue before. If your private key in the .ssh dir is too open, ssh won’t let you use it.
I’d like to point out, the value add of Rust isn’t speed, it’s safety in a low-level language. C is also just as fast, it’s just that Rust guarantees safety in a wide class of potential catastrophic bugs with little to no runtime overhead, by using the design of the language and compiler.
I’ve used Waifu2x extension GUI to pretty decent effect, and it’s free. Does require a decently powerful GPU though, and will take a while to work.
Not sure if you misspoke or are just unaware of it, but Hack is one of the prepatched nerd fonts: https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/master/patched-fonts/Hack. Also, for any fonts that aren’t prepatched, there’s a patcher in that repo to make any font a nerd font.
What do you hate about macOS? From my perspective, it beats out Windows in ease of use, performance, likelihood not to break, and being *NIX; and it beats out Linux by having things working out of the box without needing to spend a decade tinkering just to get things almost working right.
I use Windows for gaming (and work, unfortunately), Mac for general computing and programming, and Linux for servers and vms.
Actually no, Lewis is parodying the Bible: https://www.biblehub.com/1_corinthians/13-11.htm
The Bible quote does say that, but he’s poking fun at it by saying “why so serious?”
To my understanding, you can’t really use WebAssembly for the frontend - it doesn’t support manipulating the DOM, so you still need to offload a lot of the work to JS. It’s an uncontested language when it comes to web frontend.
No one here has yet complained about Cocoapods and Carthage? I’m traumatized. Thank God for SwiftPM
