Additionally, if you’re in the Apple ecosystem, they introduced custom email domains for iCloud this month with iOS 15 with their cheapest iCloud+ plan for 0.99

Is there any way to force which gets chosen? I love being able to copy and image and just paste it to WhatsApp/Messenger/Whichever other client, but if I do copy an image from the internet it’s very hit or miss if it shows up as an image when I paste, or a link. If I download the image, and then copy the downloaded one, it always shows up as an image
Now this is a "s/Facebook/Hacker News is tracking my life" coincidence. Just today I was looking to convert a CSV into a graph and came upon this exact site

Quick cite it before anybody notices
Looks amazing, I will definitely check it out, any information in supporting other forms of styling, like CSS modules or styled components?
Re:Ryanair’s statement on diversion to Minsk Airport on Monday May 24, 2021 @08:56AM (#27263770)
There is an interview with the First Deputy Commander of the Air Force and Air Defense Forces of Belarus where he confirms that Mig-29 escorted the Boeing

Additionally there is an alleged video of the Mig landing after escort with 6 air-to-air missiles visible

There’s a startup [1] that I don’t think has shipped yet, but they have a great idea about using nerve conductance sensors to use hand gestures to control the watch. Looks pretty exciting

You can even have emojis in your domain using the same technique https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punycode

Now only if I could somehow use the Secure Enclave on my Apple Watch to store webauthn and other u2f authentications, so the device I have on me most of the time could act like yubikey
How so? It is exactly the data you see when you open any clubhouse profile in the app

Almost as if there was an endpoint /profiles/id that someone just scrapped by using id 0..9999999999

Do we need TDD for particle physics so CI could run tests on what experiments break when merging a theory

Likewise, it’s insane how the hacker community create software that is so complex yet of high quality. However, I believe the time with M1 is slowly running out
Re:Super-expressive – Write regex in natural language on Thursday January 21, 2021 @11:24AM (#25860583)
I think this is great for maintainability. I saw a blog post earlier advocating for using long form arguments in scripts, "—-help" instead of "-h"

The same applies here, as "/\d/" might be as recognisable for regex savvy developers as "ls -l" for bash savvy, but for other maintainers not as familiar this makes it way easier to maintain the code

When I first read this I hoped this would be a rogue like game implemented using GitHub Actions somehow

Thanks a ton! I'll try it out, maybe even do a write up if I succeed
Re:I Built a Smart Thermostat on Wednesday December 16, 2020 @02:43AM (#25440064)
Do you perhaps have recommendations on how to control:

1x central heater with:

.. state: on or off

.. actions on or off

Nx Temperature regulator valves

.. state: current temp, target temp, percentage open

.. actions: set target temp only

What control loop do I use to control the central heater on|off based on the state of the TRVs? To maintain distinct temperatures in different zones’ TRVs

Matrix is self hosted and more of a protocol while signal is not

Really waiting for matrix to add native group video calls without jitsi
