The idea of Latex being used in business environments could be a meme

That's already happening in the UK too.

Shortly after the Online Safety Act went into operation, there was politically charged/sensitive/opinionated content on X mysteriously disappearing for UK users but nobody else in the world.

JWT inside of a cookie is fine. This gist is unnecessarily pedantic and seems oblivious to the fact that 99% of JWT impls are indeed just stuffing it inside a cookie.

But yes, short life times with frequent renewals is necessary; that's obvious though. And same applies to any other auth tech.

This will fail product-market fit instantly. Nobody is paying $49/mo for a tiny script they can vibe and run locally.

The most baffling thing here is that they allowed a very very simple JSON expression language to become a 500k/year cost burden on their business

My god. But I am happy that they finally realised their error and put it right.

It uses far less tokens than C#, so watch this space...

Surely SRE is just a .md file like everything else? :upside-down-face:

This is a really really bad idea. Don't break backwards compat. for 20% of gains. Internet connection speeds and storage capacities only go up. In a few years time, 20% of gains will seem crazy to have broken back-compat for.

I see.

But surely Netflix could have setup 1 to 3 of the "best" variants of the Bandersnatch and let people watch those? Even a "directors cut" based on how the director chose the path, would suffice.

The content is entirely gone right now. Which is pretty tragic as it was excellent.

I wanted to re-watch this on Netflix but it seems they removed it some time ago and have no plans to bring it back. It seems the interactivity features were obsoleted from their app platform as they were hard to support?

Regardless of whether he was grifting or not, he still didn't deserve what happened to him. Nobody apart from serious criminals or warlords deserve that. He was neither.

Why not just embarrass him in a viral stunt. Nobody even tried to do that. They leaped all the way from 0 to 11 by shooting him dead.

"But by that point I was so drawn in that I didn’t care and was just enjoying the ride."

:-) There a high amount of SQLite content/articles/blogs on the web that can provide this effect. SQLite is to programmers like the stars are to astronomers. A wonder.

Sort of. Access had a "Forms" feature that let you create basic GUIs on top of your database. Also, the OP's project is (currently) only providing a read-only view of the SQLite database. Adding write support is possible but will be far less impressive to the HN crowd because SQLITE_BUSY will rear its ugly head ;-)

Generally yes. Because not having range support means you can't resume file downloads. Which is a pretty essential feature for a static file host.

That is true. I did not realise this, so thanks. Indeed it says mine is a 2018 model in the "About this Mac" screen.

All this time I thought I had a 2019 model because I ordered it in 2019 and it came direct from the factory in China (not from existing stock).

I bought mine on an American Express credit card which, in the UK, has what's known as "Section 75" protection. This alone means I can return it for a full refund since it is a defective product within the warranty period with documented design flaws. If Apple refuse to issue the refund, then Amex will do it for them. Obviously it will need persistence and a bit of a fight - but the law is 100% on my side.
