Two major use cases I've used for this are distributed databases, so no coordination of series is required, and a specialized case of this, offline data creation for syncing at a later time.

I believe pip-chill still operates on packaged installed into the environment. This project seems to derive from the code itself, even if no packages are installed in the current environment.

But not having to ship the GC could be a great benefit.

Outrage is profitable, it drives engagement, and encouraged by these platforms algorithms. And when everyone sees so much outrage all the time, it normalizes it on the platform so even if you're not seeking income from it, that's the default stance.

It feels backwards to me from a purely linear time perspective, you have an input, transform it, diff would be the patch, to the desired output.

The "diff" appears to be backwards (it's subtracting what prettier would emit, and adding back the original).

FLCL was created by much of the same team as NGE, so that makes sense!

Since the abstraction is NFS for access, I wonder what the advantage over EFS is. Or more, why not just leverage this under EFS if it was a straight improvement. Compression and snapshots seem like some of the biggest wins over current EFS.

I thought JAMF was Apple Only Ecosystem as well. So it's a lateral movement from the perspective of heterogeneous set of devices, but if you had to go with Apple or third party, given the same features and limitations, most would go first party.

So you can listen to them without consuming potentially expensive mobile data.

Hah, that's clever. The author is using their other toy research tool/project: https://github.com/not-an-aardvark/lucky-commit

Much later than these, but I remember quite fondly all the DOOR BBS RPGs and games on our local BBSes in the mid 90s. I would come home from school, grab the really long phone cable coiled up, and run it across the house to the kitchen so I could log on.

Honest question, how do we know that this wasn't faked? What makes the 2014 date more problematic, and what would it be faked to be?

At least in California, they can't make the choice to purchase alcohol or cigarettes until 21. The more the science links football to permanent health effect, the harder it is to sustain the logic to let them play as "consenting adults". Say nothing of the lengths to cover up some of these effects by the NFL and probably the NCAA.

I think this clarification proves his point, and I tend to agree that I prefer the more explicit, verbose style.

The claim is not that every output has a unique input, which would not be correct, and seems to be what you are addressing.

Maybe, but they did explicitly state that's not what they want to do.

I don't think DisneyLife is available in the US.

I think rather it's a revenue issue, until relatively recently there was no way to profit from updated games, so you're better off moving on to the sequel, or next year's edition of the game. Also a lot of the video game development culture likely stems from console releases, which again until "recently" could not be updated (only new versions of disks/carts for future customers) so it was not feasible to plan for future maintenance, beyond what was necessary for derived codebases.

But each device could have it's own unique signing key, signed by a manufacturer master key that is not distributed. Then you could revoke just that one device if the need arises (or even a manufacturer). Isn't this a fairly solved problem in the TLS/CA space?

A signature doesn't have to be protected from malicious removal. If a bad actor removes it (or modifies it), then the video can no longer be validated and is considered compromised/unknown (which may be the same thing depending on how important validity is). DeCSS was removal of encryption, not signature, which is a whole different set of concerns and goals.

This makes me think, YouTube could really use multiple audio tracks that can be selected by the end user for commentary in general, not just LPs.

> What's so important about the number on the clock?

Because jobs, business hours, travel schedules?

Just the home page it seems, deep links and searches working for me.

If you look at how the Xamarin acquisition went, this seems like a likely outcome.

There's a few different ways, if they need to say they store them hashed, maybe they are hashing a T9 version (at severely reduced entropy).
