Re:Ask HN: What GNOME Shell extensions do you use? on Sunday August 27, 2023 @04:12AM (#37280504)
On Fedora, one first things I do on a new install:

- flatpak install com.mattjakeman.ExtensionManager

- Disable the fedora's "Background Logo" extension.

- Install the "AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support" extension.

And that's it. No fancy things. Avoiding the weird way to install a shell extension, the browser extension - which won't work for me because I use Firefox from flatpak.

Re:DRUIDS: Datadog Reusable User Interface Design System on Tuesday September 20, 2022 @10:14AM (#32911922)
> DRUIDS is not an open source design system. These guidelines are specifically for internal Datadog users. [1]

even npm package[2] asks for login

[2] https://www.npmjs.com/package/@druids/ui

Wow.

I am guessing this will be used in Google Maps Street View?

Can't Google remove apps like Rocket Cleaner, that participate in these ads?
Same for Signal? They have a donate button in android app.

This example uses the current polyfill and it's local.

Story seems pretty much the same with Web push notifications. You send a json to the temporary url provided by the browser push api.

1. From client get a push url.

2. Pass that to your app server for future use.

3. Send notification json to that url.

4. That url points to the specific browser vendor's Push notification server, and when it recieves a notification from your app server. It relays the message to the client.

And that url is different for different browsers.

Firefox - https://mozilla-push-service.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Chrome - uses FCM

Can't configure a custom push server endpoint, like self hosted server without shipping your own browser.

Re:Golang Desktop App with Webview/Lorca, WASM and Bazel on Tuesday August 11, 2020 @05:30AM (#24118656)
Oh yes.. I meant, completely in Golang.

And as far I know gioui tries to avoid Cgo where it can.

Re:Golang Desktop App with Webview/Lorca, WASM and Bazel on Tuesday August 11, 2020 @05:23AM (#24118616)
This is great but there many drawbacks. I tried Qt but needed something native-er.

After much digging got to know about gioui[1] but it also has some issues. Also Flutter[2] seems to be better fit but binding to golang is a little tough.

i wonder if this is even legally allowed
this is just shameful

Ask HN: Unixepoch – nanoseconds or milliseconds, what should be stored?

Time is complicated..there are many bad things about time..just got to know about 2038.then there's that leap second thing.i wonder how many more sh--ty things are there about time, and how languages handle them.What should be stored in database, is there any drawback of one or other. Or is it just that nanoseconds is just a higher precision.What if a language only supports milliseconds...
