pineconewarrior··on Mutagen – Cloud-based development using your local tools
Same! Mutagen + DDEV have been a godsend for me
pineconewarrior··on Mutagen – Cloud-based development using your local tools
Speed. This works so fast that it improves the efficiency of local development with containers.
pineconewarrior··on Ask HN: Who operates at scale without containers?
I loved Grooveshark! thanks for your work
pineconewarrior··on Evening use of light-emitting eReaders negatively affects sleep (2014)
We should change the title to reflect this. I came in here expecting to read about the dangers of e-ink displays at night and that is not what the study is about
pineconewarrior··on Gas Pump Golf
However if the style is inlined to the element and given an !important, you're SOL.
pineconewarrior··on Optimizing Docker image size and why it matters
I assume it'd be better to execute index.js directly with node
pineconewarrior··on Tauri – Electron alternative written in Rust
I do this too, but still run into issues with Safari. Luckily, later Safari 14 versions and Safari 15 are not too bad.
pineconewarrior··on You don't need that CORS request
I think it has some ugliness to it, but the idea behind it is necessary. The restrictions it places on front-end scripts are currently very challenging to work around, particularly if you're trying to implement a strict CORS policy on an existing website.

It's difficult enough to implement that it probably won't be implemented on the majority of the web - and maybe that's okay.

pineconewarrior··on Gaming on Wayland
Thank you so much for all of this info! I will give this a whirl over the holidays.
pineconewarrior··on Gaming on Wayland
Thank you for this detailed response. Over the holiday I'll give it a go :)
pineconewarrior··on TikTok streaming software is an illegal fork of OBS
The OBS project has accused StreamLabs of copying their name and stealing their trademark (By naming their software StreamLabs OBS). I'm not sure about any source code thievery.
pineconewarrior··on There oughta be a WiFi Game Boy cartridge
Amazing project and cool blog! What a great domain name, too.

Thanks for sharing!

pineconewarrior··on Preventing Pool-Party Attacks
Indeed - Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin (with some additional lists), Multi-Account Containers, and some settings adjustments are in place for me :)

On top of network-level filtering!

pineconewarrior··on Preventing Pool-Party Attacks
So is Chrome. This doesn't diminish the value of security research and subsequent improvements by either.

I'll stick to Firefox anyway :)

pineconewarrior··on Repulsive Surfaces
Fascinating and well narrated. I'm no math wizard but I found the explanation and illustration easy to follow. And the title of the video, "Repulsive Curves and Surfaces", is sure to draw some attention from the sheer amount of jokes it begs.
pineconewarrior··on I Can’t See You but I’m Not Blind
I'm surprised there are no comments about psychedelic substances and closed-eye visuals in here. One way to know if you have them normally is to -really- have them, almost intrusively, on drugs.
pineconewarrior··on I Can’t See You but I’m Not Blind
This is close to my experience, as well. Particularly if I'm also reading text or otherwise using my vision in an involved way.
pineconewarrior··on Building an Autonomous Generative Art Collection with P5.js
Agreed on all counts. I think we are all bored.
pineconewarrior··on Saule Omarova says banks sank her chance to become a key regulator
Furthermore, does this belong here at all?
pineconewarrior··on Building an Autonomous Generative Art Collection with P5.js
And publish, and a setup to host them.

good observation?

pineconewarrior··on Building an Autonomous Generative Art Collection with P5.js
I would say that they have pushed it into the category of a digital art installation by allowing pieces to be published automatically, and then sharing it and getting you (and others) to comment on it.
pineconewarrior··on Gaming on Wayland
If Wayland fixes screen tearing I might be able to stand desktop Linux. Is it time to give it another go?

Has the font rendering improved at all? My eyes can't handle some of the ugliness and my skill with code ends where the browser closes, so I've never tried to fix it.

pineconewarrior··on Customizing GPT-3 for Your Application
Thanks for sharing - both the stories and the code snippet. I'm sure this will inspire more people to experiment.

The ending of the first one is hilarious, too... "Nah, you're just not very nice - byeee". The AI has healthier boundaries than I do.

pineconewarrior··on Lead contamination in hunted meat
Yes indeed. You have to reduce distance quite a bit to get the same stopping power, due to the difference in sectional density. Furthermore, lead ammunition deforms as it penetrates - steel does not - which leads to less internal damage and a higher rate of target survival.
pineconewarrior··on Lead contamination in hunted meat
Steel shot. Seems pretty straightforward as a solution. The performance is not quite as good and it's more expensive, I assume.
pineconewarrior··on Tailwind CSS v3.0
Netflix.

Also, you can prototype your stuff and then use the "extract" functionality to create components with nice shiny class names.

pineconewarrior··on John Deere Reports $6B Profit After Fighting Workers over Meager Wages
It was not a good time - thank you. Things get better though!
pineconewarrior··on Every pricing page should have GIFs
well... 99% perhaps not. mobile safari is pretty important
pineconewarrior··on John Deere Reports $6B Profit After Fighting Workers over Meager Wages
You should not reach to defend these guys. I worked there as a contractor and witnessed rampant H1-B exploitation and dozens of other things that mortified me. After 6 months I took another job offer with 50% pay-cut and left with no regrets.
pineconewarrior··on How JavaScript engines achieve great performance
SIMD.js was abandoned in browsers but you can use SIMD in WASM.
