darnthenuggets··on Shai-Hulud Returns: Over 300 NPM Packages Infected
Both of these attacks have used trufflehog. Is there an out of the box way to block that executable by name or signature?
darnthenuggets··on I switched from Htmx to Datastar
Despite the “just figure it out” style of documentation, I still believe Hotwire + Stimulus (optional honestly) to be the best iteration of the low-JavaScript reactivity bunch.

Htmx gives me bad vibes from having tons of logic _in_ your html. Datastar seems better in this respect but has limitations Hotwire long since solved.

darnthenuggets··on In memoriam
What concept allows the UK to (attempt to) enforce this against non citizens whose business or life has no ties to their country? Plenty of small countries have odd censorship laws but have escaped similar legal hand wringing.
darnthenuggets··on Blitzortung – real time lightning strikes around the world
GOES is not quite as spatially accurate as surface mounted detectors and IIRC fails to recognize certain types of flashes that are of interest to humans. It’s more of a general intensity meter than anything like a warning system.

Their technical documentation is extremely well written. They discuss most of their limitations in there (and you can get a SQS feed of it to poke around yourself)

darnthenuggets··on The world's loudest Lisp program to the rescue
Were any other languages in contention here, or was it a “use what you know” kind of situation? As much as I would also like to be paid to write lisp, I couldn’t help but notice that a lot of the scarier problems solved were reasons others had chosen/built erlang.

Great post, cool system!

I can’t decide if I hate architecture-by-drawio or not.
darnthenuggets··on Why I quit using SwiftUI
I found mosaic which seems to be the compose tui library you mentioned. Any other projects you know of using compose interestingly?
