Viewing this page (with the HDR element) resets my cursor to the bottom left. Also triggers this behavior when changing brightness whilst the HDR element is visible on screen. Anyone have a similar experience? On MacBook Air (M1, 2020).


That worked by using the preinstall check that Installer.app invokes to do the installation. It would finish by force quitting Installer.


The latency on twitch has been around 4 seconds or 30 seconds. I believe their low-latency doesn’t get quite close to being nu able to collaborate.


From my experience it largely depends on the stream - for some I can easily get <2 seconds, others will be >10s. I'm not sure what causes this difference (ingest server?).


I face this same situation too. Grew up with pass it down things for clothes, toys and everything. Didn’t have a phone until 2011; we simply lived a life in which we didn't develop a need. Now that I have one some parts of my life are happier, others are more grim..

Now I find myself not knowing how to shop for clothes, I wore what fit. Difficulty to find entertainment, we helped around the house as parents were working more to come around.

Now I try saying yes. Someone wants to try wakeboarding, climbing, you-name-it? I’ll set up for an instructor and rental gear. Someone likes a theater show, I’ll buy an extra ticket. A friend of mine had a hard drive breakdown, did some tinkering and couldn’t recover it myself. I made them a gift that teaches how to do backups, with the equipment to do so. Essentially just a new external drive and some instructions to use the OS included software to backup, so it wouldn’t happen again. This included a platter-for-platter recovery of all the pictures that surprised her after the slightly salty thou-shall-do-backups rubbing.

Hardest thing for me is to replace broken things. 'They work fine', but I spend three times as long doing the thing. Admittedly, it's a thing I like so I don't mind spending the extra time, hehe, but a partner in life might not find the same enjoyment of using the broken thing. Avoid becoming angry because you failed to get something done within one rental-unit, it's not worth to be angry for.

Being at home(s) tends to be cheaper than being outside home(s). With you raising this concern, try to avoid thinking whether something is worth it before giving it a try. It’s okay to be impulse driven, you will learn from an experience. Do what makes you happy, being at home is totally fine. :-)

I now focus much more on experiences (let's go wakeboarding!) instead of objects/belongings (new phone w/ airpods). I find experiences make more than just myself happy and that makes me even happier! :D


A lot of applications centralize their logo in a QR code, obscuring a significant chunk. Yet the code scans fine and there is some nice custom recognizability for which service it is.


This somewhat painfully breaks when reattaching as the socket from the shells environment could be defunct. Whereas the shell session outside has a different, totally fine agent in its environment. This was somewhat painful to explain to some engineers and I suck at explaining so I’ll gladly receive a good explanation for it (or a nice workaround?) :D


Are you talking about running ssh-agent on the server side? To further connect to some other machine?

For that I use a file to save the name of the socket and PID, and restore this in my .profile.


You’ve described myself from early teenager to adult perfectly. What you wrote fully resonates with me. Take care of yourself.


While I read this I tried modeling storage and query models for implementing such decaying recursive karma network. Not quite sure how, it felt hard. If someone knows how to do this, from an abstract perspective or from a systems implementation look, I’d greatly appreciate that! :)


There’s quite a few territories where you need to get a license/seal/stamp/signature from the administration of your current citizenship. Going deeper, it’s then common for that request to only be authorized given the promise of the administration of the new citizenship to grand you this new citizenship. A two-way commit of sorts.


Slack does quite poorly on accessibility, so anyone using assistive measures from their operating system or separate application (voice instructed navigation, screen readers etc) will have a much harder than the average blog post or mailing list.


Based on the context, it's pretty clear to me that the parent comment was not referring to accessibility in the a11y sense, but more of the "Slack is a private company and therefore inherently closed and evil" slant.


I personally find Slack to be utterly abysmal at actually keeping information, stuff that scrolls up beyond the fold is effectively lost. Maybe that's what GP meant?
