Do you mean activities like driving a car?

I was personally using tailscale funnel (similar?) because my isp didn’t give me a static ip moreso than for any security reason.
Are you proud of that or something?

Lol ok

We will disagree here

I didn’t state that I do this

_in your opinion_

My opinion is, _my unit tests_ are to protect my code against unwanted changes. To that end, unit tests test a single unit. And everything is mocked. If I have to rewrite a method, usually I rewrite all of its unit tests. Which is fine. They’re easy to write or rewrite.

Fully mocked unit tests are then supplemented with fewer “full stack” tests higher up the pyramid.

There is no sense
More than a little
Well, not a surprise. They predicted it before measuring it.

On iPhone, it is. Can set “limited access” for contacts just as you can for photos.

> Also, it seems like every Ruby programmer I know only ever uses other dynamic languages like Python. It’s never like they’re experts in C++ or something and then decided to start programming in Ruby.

Can you expand on what you’re saying here or why you’re raising this is as an issue with ruby the language or rails the library?

So it wasn’t really implemented correctly then.
What is a “CLI framework”?
That is not true at all. Concurrency is a way of writing programs and is an orthogonal concern to how the program gets executed.

It’s not a quote. It is an interpretation or reading of a quote.

Re:Kagi – Introducing Fair Pricing on Wednesday February 05, 2025 @07:20AM (#42947472)
On iOS at least, Apple does not allow custom search engines in Safari and does not list kagi. So the kagi app redirects requests to a different one. Feels gross and dumb.

Not guaranteed, no. Thankfully.

Chrome does, however, if the “resume where i left off” setting is enabled.

Re:Running Durable Workflows in Postgres Using DBOS on Tuesday December 10, 2024 @04:57PM (#42382035)
Does DBOS offer a way to get messages in or data out of running workflows? (Similar to signals/queries in Temporal) Interested in long-running workflows, and this particular area seemed to be lacking last time I looked into it.

I don’t want to just sleep; I want a workflow to be able to respond to an event.

I don’t know if I follow. So starving yourself alone in a van is a better use of time and money than going on adventures with friends? To what end?
