I wasn't while cycling, it was when resting or at night sleeping. Could have been dehydration related, but i usually drink a LOT during and afterwards.

No sure about brain harm. But I used creatine for a few months and I got cramps in an intensity like I never experienced before. I then decided it was not worth it for a few watts of cycling FTP increase. So I would not consider it harmless for everbody, but this sideeffect seems pretty rare.

Nice, but it's too late I needed a different API for future use in my custom sprintf so I made mulle-dtostr (https://github.com/mulle-core/mulle-dtostr). On my machine (AMD) that benchmarked in a quick try quite a bit faster even, but I was just checking that it didn't regress too badly and didn't look at it closer.

Thank you for the code. I could port this easily to C and it solved a lot of portability issues for me.

I use this and have no problems with it: https://github.com/marty1885/landlock-unveil

Can anyone comment on the "You can exceed the amperage specs" ? I made myself a little case study using 4x1W panels and using them in series and parallel. I got the distinct impression that running panels in parallel is better in not so bright conditions compared to a single panel. Whereas a serial configuration made it worse. Since the sun doesn't shine here that much. Running in parallel seems to be preferable, but it would slightly exceed the amperage spec of a few converter i sampled.

People should get on the bike and start cycling for real (like burn 200W an hour). Their perception of glucose will flip 100%. Suddenly glucose is like the fuel to your body, that you can't cram enough into. Which means white bread in the morning, croissants (and coca cola with sugar) will be your friends. Quite frankly a much better lifestyle.

I have been using https://github.com/marty1885/landlock-unveil on Linux for about two years now on my stock Ubuntu kernel. I am not sure, why this hasn't become more popular. It's also rootless sandboxing (and it does `unveil` like OpenBSD I guess). I use it to confine builds of third party software with success.

Frankly yes, though I still prefer text editing in Sublime Text.

Actually I already did, a few years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13030568

Thanks for the umash tip.

Cool. I forgot to mention, that I am truncating the hash down to 32 bits to hopefully generate tighter CPU instructions. At these few bits, collisions are still rare enough, but they are a concern.

Now my understanding of the choice of prime is that, you are "weighing" the input bits and the computed bits, that will form the hash. So in case of identifiers its very likely that bit 7 of the input is always 0 and say maybe bit 4 is statistically more likely to be 1 by some margin. The other input bits would have some entropy as well. I would expect that certain (imperfect) primes would then aid me to get a better use of the 32 bit space and therefore less risk of a collision for my Objective-C runtime.

You can check out the project here: https://github.com/mulle-objc.

I am using fnv-1a to hash Objective-C method selectors, which are generally just identifier characters and zero or multiple ':'. At the time of my research, fnv-1a had the least collisions over my set of "real life" selectors. I think, it could be worthwhile some time, to try out other constants for maybe even less collisions. Is your list of good primes available ? (And maybe also those that are not quite perfect)

I think for sports, I could wrap all the various mulle-sde and mulle-bashfunction files back into one and make it > 100K lines. It wouldn't even be cheating, because it naturally fractalized into multiple sub-projects with sub-components from a monolithic script over time.

I tried it on two of my git repositories, just to see, if it could do a decent commit summary. I was very pleasantly surprised with the good result. I was unpleasantly surprised, that this already cost me 175 credits. If I extrapolate this over my ~100 repositories, that would already put me at 8750, just to let it write a commit message for release day. That is way out of free range and basically would eat up most of the $99 I would have to spend as well. My subscription price for cody is $8 for a month. Pricing seems just way off.

When I benchmarked it, I saw no difference between [ and [[ when using bash, so I assume [ is handled (now) by the shell as well.

The syntax inside [[ is different though.

Leave me out of it, I have other plans :)

Who is "we" ?

I would assume this is completely standard. The ear doctor I went to, and that guy was noone "fancy", did this and that must have been more then 10 years ago.

You can use `act` to run github actions locally. But its still unpleasant and there is still some friction (like: use sudo, or don't use sudo)

They use their own variant of wine (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton)

If I have a linux problem and copy/paste relevant parts of the log into an AI, the result is more often than not useful and quick. It's a real help for admin tasks. Is it programming though ? :)

Agreed. BOOL in Apple ObjC is a `char` though. That is a constant thorn in the side, when you are doing slightly more sophisticated stuff with argument passing and return values as you actually have to cast a lot (BOOL (*)(id, SEL, ...)).

As the implementer of an Objective-C dialect, I am considering to go the other route and elevate BOOL to NSInteger (sizeof( NSInteger) == sizeof( id) in my case).

Conceivably the compiler could (just) for @properties combine all the BOOL fields into a bitfield, so there would be less grousing about wasted space. Maybe or maybe not.

Coincidentally, I wrote a post this week on how to make a "Amazon Music Player "app" for Linux using a custom Firefox profile: https://www.mulle-kybernetik.com/weblog/2023/amzn_music_play.... Wrapping more websites into their own profiles is sorta tempting :)

I use portmaster on Linux and I think its great.

So what is the hard way ?

Mullvad also states that it disabled the Firefox password storage feature, because it's supposedly insecure. But the articles supporting this view (i read) seem to be written by third-party password storage friends. Their arguments are weak (like "some managers used to do bla bla, which was insecure") and don't apply to Firefox. Is there a strong argument specifically against Firefox passwords and password sync ?

I never merge changes. I run my unison with `-batch -prefer newer`, so I never get queried. In the very, very rare case (like maybe once every few years), where I feel I lost a file to unison, I have to retrieve a backup. It would assume that in a multi-user setup, this could be trickier.

I use the git log to feed my changelog. I prefix the stuff that's supposed to go in the release notes with a asterix and the technical boring stuff is just a normal line. Then at release time I have a script that pulls the asterix prefixed lines from the change log into the RELEASENOTES.md. I wouldn't want to bother with more.

The author thinks the Telecaster is very hard to improve on. But the bridge design is ergonomically and technically really bad. There are small screws pointing out towards the strumming hand, just waiting to draw blood. And the intonation is only adjustable on string pairs.
