I quite like kagis universal summarizer, for example. It let's me know if a long ass YouTube video is worth watching

So you want Kagi

Kagi generated key points:

  • The new Find My Device network on Android was designed with a strong focus on user security and privacy.
  • The network uses a crowdsourced approach to locate lost or misplaced devices and belongings, even when they are offline.
  • The location data reported by participating Android devices is end-to-end encrypted, ensuring Google cannot access or use the location information.
  • The network has "aggregation by default" as a safety feature, requiring multiple nearby devices to detect a Bluetooth tag before reporting its location to the owner.
  • The network also has protections to avoid contributing location reports when near the user's home address.
  • Rate limiting and throttling are used to prevent malicious real-time tracking, while still allowing the network to be useful for finding lost items.
  • The network is compliant with industry standards for unwanted tracking, triggering alerts on both Android and iOS devices.
  • Users have full control over which of their devices participate in the network and how.
  • The network design has undergone internal security testing and is part of Android's vulnerability rewards program.
  • Prioritizing user safety and privacy is an ongoing commitment as the team continues to improve the Find My Device protections.

Recently I had to do an update to the underlying environment a codebase ran on. This was a somewhat involved upgrade and took a longer period of time than most of our work usually does. I did it in a separate worktree, so I didn't have to constantly rejuggle the installed dependencies in the project, and could work on two features relatively concurrently

It also provides some utility for comparing the two versions. Nothing you couldn't do other ways, but still useful

And in elixir/erlang we're spoiled with loads of options, from ETS to mnesia

On the subreddits I moderated, I used a big regexp to preemptively filter their comments

Letting one through was a rare event

How about they cut executive pay instead of fucking the rank and file over

During my most recent job search, the most annoying thing I saw was "resume consultants"

They'd reach out like an interested recruiter, but very quickly get to the sales pitch

Apologies are free and valueless

Djot is a markdown alternative, created by John MacFarlane, creator of Pandoc and spec author of CommonMark. It aims to fix many of the little issues Markdown has, and does a pretty good job of it, imo.

I hereby officially announce the Elixir type system effort is transitioning from research into development: https://elixir-lang.org/blog/2023/06/22/type-system-updates-research-dev/

A huge thank you to Fresha and Starfish for sponsoring this new stage. They are also hiring:

ExUnit is wonderful, and the functional paradigms that underpin Elixir let us write extremely complex tests in a fraction of the code that would be needed in OOP testing frameworks like RSpec.

But it's not all wine and roses. Tests can quickly accrue tons of boilerplate and repetition.

Using some Elixir features, you can cut down on these, and make tests even nicer to write.

I got tired of hitting ⌘Enter and not having my post automatically go through, so I wrote a little userscript that enables exactly that.
