I’m hosting most of my homelab off one m910q I got off eBay, with a 128gb M.2 SSD I bought separately. $55usd total. It handles around 15 services (including DNS and *Arrs) pretty well. Using a separate NAS for the actual storage and Plex streaming.

Are those custom 3d printed rack mounts for the ThinkCentres? Got an STL to share? I’d love to print rack mounts for mine (m910q)

What, are we code golfing?

Do you say hetips for HTTPS?

No but now I want to start (though I’d go hittips instead, and its insecure alternative, hittip). HTTPS has always been a mouthful lol

Lol this is hilarious. This paragraph is my fave:

We identified that color is a way to connect with people across all divides (and we have research that people respond positively to it) — it is a universal language that transcends the boundaries of our diverse verbal languages. And we chose “Colorways” rather than “themes” to show we are branching out from our language of “browser” to speak the language of everyday life and everyday users. This is about more than just installing a new “theme,” which really doesn’t have much meaning to most people.

On a completely unrelated note (your username), I just started reading a couple Asimov novels! Any recommendation for which ones I should pick up next? I’ve already done I, Robot and Caves of Steel. Thinking maybe I start Foundation soon (but just started the TV show).

The last language I learned was Rust, I did a mix of the two. I read through the canonical Rust book and then got to coding because I learn more deeply when I can apply what I’ve learned. It’s still a tricky language to keep a conceptual model of in your head though.

No, it only has an integrated html previewer. They removed the full integrated browser because it was unnecessary and an actual browser did the trick

Are you telling me that no compiler optimizes this? Why?

Nothing you’ve said is wrong, but (at least in the screenshot) the OP didn’t say anything about it being used in anything official. It’s a relatively common term in everyday language thanks to medical dramas which use coding a lot, and it’s even in the Merriam-Webster medical dictionary.

Not to invalidate what you’ve said! Just pointing out that it not being used in official contexts doesn’t make it nonsense to use elsewhere, like on some forum.

Oh hey, you’re totally right, that’s crazy. I use Beeper (hosted matrix setup) to aggregate my chats and I guess I’ve always been using that to search across all servers without realizing. Fully thought the DM search would also search across servers.

DMs are definitely also another case though - you can’t easily DM people on another server if that requires you to log into another server.

That’s still not a solution. That entails non unified communication, access, and search. Making it easy to log in to others still doesn’t solve easy sharing between others. Also oauth2 is a pain to set up, and many people hosting their own instance aren’t going to bother.

Rust is a lot more niche and intimidating of a language compared to Swift. Swift is familiar to C++ devs, while modernizing the language and toolchain, and providing safety guarantees.

Also, Safari on Windows had low usage, and was probably a pain to maintain. Swift cross platform is more about abstracting out Apple specific things (like the standard library and UI toolkit). Apple has already been investing multi-year efforts into Swift on the server for longer than Safari on Windows existed. The last couple versions of Swift (~3-4years of development) have been almost entirely focused on safe concurrency, which is intended for server-side development.

Actually, this isn’t true. Apple has a vested interest in cross platform Swift. They’ve been pushing hard for Swift on Linux because they want Swift to run on servers, and they’re right to. Look at how hard JavaScript dominates on the server-side because of one language everywhere.

I’ve worked with Swift a bunch for Apple platforms, am mildly familiar with how it works on other platforms. It should be able to compile on a wide host of platforms with minimal/no issues. The runtime dependencies are localized to Apple platforms, and I think the dominant UI toolkit on other platforms is a Swift port of qt. So it should be just fine?

What’s wrong with Business Insider? Genuine question

You declare it in the package.json as a category when publishing. It’s completely self-selected with no oversight, review, or enforced permissions.

I believe they’re referring to lower down in the article, where the researchers analyzed existing extensions on the marketplace:

After the successful experiment, the researchers decided to dive into the threat landscape of the VSCode Marketplace, using a custom tool they developed named ‘ExtensionTotal’ to find high-risk extensions, unpack them, and scrutinize suspicious code snippets.

Through this process, they have found the following:

• 1,283 with known malicious code (229 million installs).
• 8,161 communicating with hardcoded IP addresses.
• 1,452 running unknown executables.
• 2,304 that are using another publisher’s Github repo, indicating they are a copycat.
