  1. Most of the links seem to be broken on https://www.capros.org/overview.html
  2. Yeah it does look like things have moved on, but there were echoes from previous Go conversations around the idea of a standardised package and the attendant years of hurt that it turned me off a little while ago. I did try: https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/4574#issuecomment-62...
  3. Stopped following Deno while they were rejecting the need for a package management solution. Used Bun instead.
  4. how did we get here?
  5. I've often wondered about this. Does the chemistry imply the energetics of this would be less favourable than other organic decomposition?

    This could be bad too I suppose? Pipes and other chemical containment vessels might come under attack.

  6. I love the idea of it shifting from one non-descript design system to another on every other page change. How disorientating. Weird and boring at the same time.
  7. Doing that from Belgium would indeed be beyond the pale
  8. Coming back to London for a spell having lived abroad, I see speech supporting a non violent protest group banned, and find my myself firing up a VPN to avoid dragnet data collection.

    Terrorism Act 2000 and 2006 Racial and Religious Hatred Act 2006 Investigator Powers Act 2016 Online Safety Act 2023

    There has been a raft of legislation both permitting and mandating digital monitoring while increasingly prohibiting types of speech. Many of these laws with overly broad definitions and large amounts of discretion.

  9. There seems to be some crossover between the software and flying 'communities'. Perhaps this is rather unsurprising given some of the shared prerequisite skills? Is it your experience there are many commercial pilots who code?

    Do you expect to get 100% of the way to the sun over your career?

  10. I don't care how you're good at it so long as I can watch.
  11. Someone remind me, is it $@ or $< ?
  12. I'm Stockholm syndrome with make at this point. I'm not sure I'd want it any other way.
  13. Absent mindedly moving a submodule breaks everything. It was relatively recently there was even support via git mv.
  14. This is rather misleading, the FLP theorem talks about fully asynchronous networks with unbounded delay. Partial synchrony is a perfectly reasonable assumption and allows atomic broadcast and locking to work perfectly well even if there is an unknown but finite bound on network delay.
  15. The maths appendices in Infinite Jest are about half the book. There's a section written by Hal's friend (?), proving something like the intermediate value theorem where he says something like: we'll use epsilon delta because it's mad fun to say.
  16. Can you ask it to explain galois theory like he's 21?
  17. WhenFFS feels like a missed opportunity here.
  18. I'm not sure what enumeration attack you have in mind, but if you were to encrypt the same value many times you would not get the same ciphertext under most schemes.
  19. What is the runtime thing I run on a machine in order to support shipping code around? How does that work?

    Unison makes reference to a node I also could find scant details of rust.

  20. I need to have a play with it, but the problem is i deliberately have a 'kill switch' style setup to stop any requests accidentally going not over wireguard (for reasons) so I assume I'll need to do some other firewall type thing. Maybe something something tagging.
