The rest api was taken apart years ago for my old Sonos. They had originally promised to add AirPlay support later said, “Just kidding. Why don’t you brick it instead.” At that point I was finished with closed ecosystems for audio. At least someone made an AirPlay agent that lives on the home server. That speaker has survived many years too.
Yes/no. Regardless of the code complexity reduction there is still architecture, planning and implementation. Could someone come by and clone my work afterwards? Absolutely. Will they retain customers with only a little understanding of the product or model? Questionable.
Everyone is forgetting the no delay is per application and not a system configuration. Yep, old things will still be old and that’s ok. That new fangled packet farter will need to set no delay which is a default in many scenarios. This article reminds us it is a thing and especially true for home grown applications.
Burn out is the second or third year of non-stop fires and you are the one to solve all of the problems. Meanwhile the company is busy creating more fires because they haven’t finished burning that sweet sweet engineer candle.
Oh I doubt it was his fault. I had something similar happen setting up a phone for a neighbor. Apple decided it was fraudulent after I added her address to the account. It was now dead with no recourse. At least I didn’t spend much on a used phone. Picked up an android and said it’s time to adapt.
Yes, when my org needed a very specific feature from an open source project the company reached out to the authors. I don’t know the terms, but they dropped a chunk of cash. No strings either on the new feature and everyone benefited in the end.
Well you can get closer with custom build tools and tools to gut features. Ms is acutely aware of these third party efforts and they are working diligently to stop them from working in each release. They are not interested in making a prosumer release, but harvesting the customer. One of you is the matrix and the other is the human battery. I leave it to the reader to determine where they fall in those categories.
It’s intentionally obfuscated because the product developers don’t want to share profits with brokers. They also do not want to compete on in the open because that too lowers odors Otherwise, we would have a system where it would be insanely easy to monitor and alert for price breaks. Hidden cities is probably the best example of how it could work and easily presents the price charts over time. Yet they too were cut off from some providers.
Not to derail but there are issues with kernel patching. If it does work you start building a very large matrix of various levels of hot patches and then sometimes it just doesn’t.
I just run my own name server. DNS blocking is no longer an issue unless they get to the root name servers. With a little domain warming from the top 5000 domains it’s pretty snappy most of the time.
Yeah, it’s just horribly wrong in my experience and a complete distraction. Code completion for functions in the project is another story and that has been around for ages.
I at least maintain administrative control while using free resources. I looked at the completely self hosted route a long time ago and didn’t want to deal with that. Fast forward to today and I’m dealing with a friend who has the polar opposite. Now their mental faculties are reduced and they lost devices. Couple this with not paying previous management entities and it’s a digital lock out. Recovering from this is a nightmare and I’m operating blind. For a normie this would be impossible.
In the rare case something worms it's way to collections I just ask for the certified letter. Now in ten years that only happened once. I even called the hospital asking where my bill was and they said I didn't owe anything. Three months later collections!
I pick up old serves for my garage system. With edac it is a dream to isolate the fault and be instantly aware. It also lets you determine the severity of the issue. Dimms can run for years with just the one error or overnight explode into streams of corrections. I keep spares so it’s fairly easy to isolate any faults. It’s just how do you want to spend your time?
TSA and all of its security theater is going to get the boot. Airports can manage their own security. That won’t change international customs which is still managed federally.
I’ve found AI tools extremely helpful in getting me up to speed with a library or defining an internal override not exposed by the help. However, if I’m not explicit in how to solve a problem the result looks like the bad code it’s been ingesting.
Yes, private shipping is perfectly fine. This is not a shipping embargo. USPS is just not taking packages. Letters and flat rate will continue to be processed.
