I loved BB10. It had gesture-based navigation years ahead of its time, the Hub was the best notification system I’ve ever used, and it could run Android apps alongside BB10-native apps. It helped that I liked the form factor of the devices with physical keyboards, too.

Nowadays can choose between a large, glass rectangle, and an extra-large, glass rectangle in one of two flavours: Apple and Android. It’s no coincidence that Android has become more restrictive in terms of control over your own device, as the competition has dwindled and thinned.

Get a load of Ross Ulbricht ovah here!

I’d love to see the state of online banking if everyone were to manage their own ssh keys

Most people couldn’t figure out how to download a binary release from a GitHub repo, much less clone it, regardless of HTTP or SSH.

SSH keys are more like passkeys than passwords.

I think this post is about git CLI, not www.github.com.

SSH keys are very secure and you can still encrypt them with a password if you wish.

I was wondering if you’d get similar results for states with the letter R, since there’s lots of prior art mentioning these states as either “D” or “R” during elections.

$5 item, free shipping but it crosses the ocean on the back of the next available sea turtle, and if you have any issues they’ll send you a replacement component and a loose guide on how to desolder the old component and solder the new component.

Don’t credit cards usually give 21 days of interest free grace period? So this is over ~9 days worth of interest? Fuck them for that? Not fuck them for exploiting gambling addiction, but for not giving the consumer their two quarters worth of interest?

Your username checks out, lol. At 5% APR, 30 days’ worth of interest on this $390 purchase is ~$1.63.

And if we consider that Nike is acting as a bookmaker in this case, the house edge for a bookmaker is around that amount anyway. Nike is likely to bake this edge into their margin anyway, but I don’t think it’s likely that you’d get a bonus of $1.63 if you win this bet, in this hypothetical.

Do they get interest for the product you held during the return period?

So like, how do refunds work?

You “flip” the coin at any time during the eligible refund period, but the result is only revealed after the refund period has expired.

Atomicity: either all parts of the transaction complete, or all parts of the transaction don’t complete; there’s no “partly complete” state

Consistency: the state of the database after a transaction is stable; all “downstream” effects (e.g. triggers) of the query are complete before the transaction is confirmed.

Isolation: concurrent transactions behave the same as sequential transactions

Durability: a power failure or crash won’t lose any transactions

Traditionally, ACID is where relational databases shine.

See you this Friday under the Brooklyn Bridge, comrade.

Wow, I’d love to Kyll myself on a hot, summer’s day!

I guess not too different from pr0n, h4x, etc. Maybe a tale as old as time?

A /8 subnet is basically everything after the first of the four segments, e.g. 127.*.*.*. marine_mustang was saying that loopback (what you think of as only 127.0.0.1) is actually an entire subnet, so any address that starts with 127 will hit the loopback interface. TIL, never thought about it much before.

Use Firefox + uBlock origin for your own sanity. Don’t let big tech make you feel guilty for not going along with their game.

100% this and also, consider allow-listing specific sites which deserve your support, or better yet, contribute directly if you can – e.g. your local bike club forum, your local newspaper, a blogger whose work you enjoy, etc., assuming of course, the ads are reasonable.
