How about removing the Siri button from the menu bar? This doesn’t seem possible anymore (it reappears some time after dragging it out)

New OEIS entry: numbers used in names of startups followed by “labs”

> when a carrier does an ENUM lookup for one of these numbers, they're essentially asking "where do I route this call?", and I could answer with whatever I wanted. I could point it at my own SIP server, accept the incoming call, and then place an outgoing call to the real destination with a spoofed number

How would the “outgoing call to the real destination” avoid this same lookup? Directives to route around the ENUM system?

At some point (soon), the massive inefficiency of this system will stop being subsidized. Also, it’s nondeterministic and unreliable.

> The “Follow” button is visible when I take the screenshot mid-switch.

Does this indicate that the privacy feature has a gap, where you could reveal the length of your password if you take a screenshot mid app switch?

I would love an agentic tool that simply finds code locations and opens them in my editor, so that I can write the implementation. I find this to be the most tedious and disorienting part, especially in languages without strong typing, that de-emphasize navigable references between classes. For example, wouldn’t necessarily need this tool for Java. Would like it for Ruby.

Is it like self driving cars, where 100% non-human code would be arguably safer?

But then it always comes down to having some human who is accountable for verifying the behavior. I think ultimately we just need a better set of languages and frameworks to minimally encode the types of applications we want to build today, so that human comprehension and verification of the source code becomes easier.

It’s probably not too important to choose a service that you think you can trust fully, because that trust might be broken at some point. But having an identifier that can be swapped to different backends, so people can find you again when the host inevitability changes, is a stronger strategy. I think the importance of owning domain names will increase, and using those as the canonical identifier of a project will give it more permanence. The procedures for seizure and censorship with domain names are better established and understood.

But consider how, in just a short few years, tools will have changed so much that even achieving this specific look will not even be possible (everything is in the cloud and normal users can’t even run them locally)

We’ll inevitably end up feeling nostalgic for these mid-2020s AI slop menus, much like how graphic design of the 90s and 2000s is revered (see other comments on this post) even while during its making was regarded as garish

Ah yes you are right. The policy I am referencing is for the Free or Pro tiers, Business is different

That's a good operating assumption, and I usually think this way too.

It turns out Slack actually requires legal process or consent of parties to provide private messages to admins: https://slack.com/help/articles/204897248-Guide-to-Slack-imp...

But of course yes, another party could simply take a screenshot

I find myself holding onto and preserving general ephemera and just happened to scan a moist towelette package over the weekend. My collection mostly consists of business cards and dry cleaning type carbon copy receipts. I need to better catalogue these and share online. A few business cards: https://ivan.sh/biz-cards/

Going to "modernized" restaurants is just a drag. I don't want to touch your tablet or scan your code. I much prefer the restaurants which only accept cash

There's also the global gitignore configuration (core.excludesfile=~/.gitignore_global), which for me contains things like: *.swp, .DS_Store, scratch, etc.

This seems very low. I have not worked in professional screenprinting environments, but all resources I have seen indicate potential for hundreds or thousands of high quality prints from a well prepared screen.

The ending reminds me of the “Americans are obsessed with protein” article

This is too close to Idiocracy

Yeah I’ve had this same idea for the same reasons, and came to the same conclusions that without legislation, no incentive exists to send statements as attachments in emails or to store them with a 3rd party where they can’t be tampered with when a mistake is discovered

Not sure if anyone else noticed the item id of this comment does indeed end in 88?

I'm interested to hear more about this. I think I have a tendency to want to do this myself. Any additional reading on this concept?

Taking real disconnect breaks (more than one week) also help a lot. Some people, including me until recently, don’t seem to do this often or at all

To be pedantic, its purpose is for verification testing of systems that allow for testing of the type you describe

I think this is still possible with access points that require installing and trusting a custom certificate. The example in my mind is WeWork's WiFi

It seems like even the Startup School signup is limited to students. I applied anyway, and will comment again if I receive a response

Can it do React yet?

I think going from code to OpenAPI makes a lot more sense, at least for strong typed languages. And even if not directly translated from code, at least closer to the actual code, in annotations or something. Generating the spec from code removes a step, where you simply need to update code, rather than update the spec then update the code

vim-rest-console[0] has been my Postman alternative for years. It basically wraps curl and makes it super easy to make different requests from a single text file. Can even write YAML and have it converted to JSON before being sent in the body. Really great tool
