It's also humbling at this job because I have 30 years experience in part of their code base (FreeBSD based), yet I'm a complete newbie with the rest of their code base and processes.

I'd really like to see the conferencing apps add a feature that when you're sharing a window, there's a little token that appears on the window, and you can drag that token to another window to switch sharing to that window.

I run my display at 1800p which means if I share my screen (ignoring issues about that), it makes it unreadable for most people, so I only share a window.

What, we have both an x86 AND a sparc emulator in css? Or is someone just getting my hopes up.

It's sad that some people feel compelled to write [opinion] pieces for the NYT. When someone does so, it immediately decreases my opinion of them.

All tech lies. Some tech does it better than other tech.

This list is incomplete. You can add to it by adopting one and/or becoming a member of the FreeBSD community.

(Same goes for the cat page that is in the replies. I need to add mine to that list.)

Ouch, just saw code checking if a bool is true with boolvar > 0.

They could do what signal does which is hash what has been sent and received so far and integrate that into the resulting session key. That way if someone replaces a public key, the otherside would end up with the wrong key.

I mean, they are a signal replacement so they're doing this, right? Right?

(I'm not hopeful.)

There is zero valid reason that firefox's updater needs to discover devices on the local network.

Hopefully it's a dev not being smart and including too many permissions instead of Mozilla trying to get data for their AI work they keep pushing.

Part of the reason C code is so buggy is that it's so difficult to write test code for C programs.

Difficult to mock out functions. Difficult to only compile/include the parts of a unit that you want to test.
Difficult to deal with crashes in the test code (e.g. segfaults have to be thrown into a debugger to know where they happened).

I forgot one of the reasons I don't like working in an office is that they keep it colder than my body likes.

Notices that there are no tests for the curve25519 code in FreeBSD's kernel.

If only the rfc had text vectors that could be used to validate the implementation.

Also, if things are hosted on ipfs, I'll mirror things as well.

It's kinda like BitTorrent, but instead of having a torrent file to identify a file or collection of files, you use a hash.

It's content addressable storage.
