The way the admin panel screenshot is censored is not good as per this post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25326450

All those names could be recovered in theory.

A few years ago I made a modular IRC bot using ztcp. Probably comes with a bunch of security holes: https://github.com/tiagoad/zshbot/

If those mushrooms truly degraded the petroleum or plastic into something harmless, they can be simply turned into compost.

It's like night and day in my (small) experience. Cold start is VERY fast.

Finally we have good alternatives to Airtable coming out! I'm really liking where this is going.

If your data is reasonably valuable, it will be impossible to deter a minimally invested developer armed with puppeteer (with some modifications), residential proxy services, and captcha solving (way less than a cent per captcha). Most sites that attempt to do it hinder their users more than they do the scrapers.

It's way cheaper than that, you'll pay significantly less than a cent for each captcha.

I don't think there's more psychopathic tendencies in those positions because it's a necessity to being a successful leader. I think a lot of people crave power, and with a disregard for morals and other people in general, it's easier to attain it. Good people also make good leaders, they just need more luck and hard work to get there without kicking on everyone across their path.

This is it, the DAG model is a thing of the past

Chess AI can play like humans, and win consistently (stockfish), and it can also play in completely novel ways, and win even more (alphazero)

Who cares if the server is not ?

Well... if E2EE is properly implemented, you could be broadcasting your messages on twitter and you'd still be safe.

I'm thinking the iPhone 12 Mini is going to be very popular. I see a lot of people on older iPhones refusing to switch to the monster phones.

I've been following these guys since the project started, and it keeps getting better! Well done!

The direct link to the commons page is also useful for finding pictures related to a topic.

Do you guys see any ads online? I have ublock origin on my laptop and mobile browsers, modded youtube and instagram with no ads on android. I pretty much never see any ad.

I also add the Annoyances lists to uBlock and I have the "I don't care about cookies" extension to ignore cookie popups.

This has been done in the past, but it's a violation of their ToS and gets shut down fast.

Digikam for the organization part of lightroom

You need to specify a DAG, rather than just write regular code

Speed of development. Django dev is really rapid.

A lot of those "adaptive" LED light suck! Loads of times I'm stuck with some guy behind me with flickery, colour-changing lights pointing right at my face through the mirrors.

The skepticism is not unwarranted. Borrowing your exercise example, it would be like saying you do X pushups every day and it changed your life, and then saying you've been doing that for a couple days. Wikis are infamous for not working out on the long term.

RDP also works more reliably over mobile connections than VNC, in my experience

Most of your initial points jumped to my mind immediately while reading the article. I find some of the given examples are not very pleasing to my eye, having a bit of a weird balance/composition.

In SWF/Durable Functions/Cadence/Temporal, The entire workflow is defined as (deterministic) code, which is orchestrated by the engine.

I work for an accounting company with a few hundred workers, who every month had to submit a lot of files, and collect a lot of documents from human-only websites.

About two years ago I built a custom workflow engine in python where I had a few primitives (filesystem, database access, browser (puppeteer scripts), etc), and would define a workflow using those primitives using a YAML DSL.

In a couple weeks I ported the whole thing to Temporal (Java client), where each of those primitive groups is a different activity, which runs in a separate worker. I have a browser worker, which runs in the only servers that have internet access, a filesystem worker, which is on a Windows machine serving as an entrypoint to the company's windows filesystem, a database worker, etc.

This is all very scalable, and I can run as many of each worker and the engine itself as I like.

Currently the scale is not too big though. I launch a few "main" workflows in certain days of the month that will then spawn up to 4 thousand child workflows which run simultaneously with no problem.

Symbian was great! I got a used Nokia 6110 Navigator around 2008 (I was 12/13) and it was mindblowing to me. It had GPS, and I could download apps from the internet that would do stuff with the GPS and send data in real time to my computer.

I bet those were real cereal that baked in the heat for a few days.

As someone living in Lisbon and has been to multiple European capitals: we're not a good example.

Those cardsharing schemes still exist today, although they're being cracked down more and more.

Another relevant bit about Lisbon's 25 de Abril bridge is the common misconception that it was designed by the same company as the golden gate, as it looks similar and also has a red paintjob, when it was in fact the company that designed the Bay Bridge, which is even more similar (except for the colour).
