@waldoj i use dynadot, you can set your account to use yubikeys but they’re not set by default. their prices are fair but they don’t support the more esoteric tlds, their customers are mostly it seems people who buy tens of domains at a time, so lots of bulk registration deals that don’t make sense for me but i think i’ve been using them for nearly 20 years now 😅😬💀

to the tune of human league's (keep feeling) fascination "🎶 he's wearing kuhl kollusion 🎶"

big fan of the kuhl items i own but jfc their names are extremely awkward to actually say aloud "oh these pants, they're kuhl deceptrs, the jacket—a kollusion!"

@scientiffic oh that’s awesome, didn’t realize people were selling translated copies. i would totally play it on the pocket too, i just had some weird issues when i first tried loading a rom on it

@scientiffic !!! does it run on the gba or snes core??? does it support save states?

this game, man, finally rolled credits after ~60 hrs, what a ride. it’s got the heat

gonna have to wait for some other year for totality but even this was pretty cool

the only silver lining here is that because i'm porting a react redux app to swift ui, i already rely on selection being managed, so i can use that bound value, but it's confounding that focus ends up being something else altogether

i'm totally confounded by how swiftui focus works with things like List or NavigationSplitView which handles/owns kb/mouse list item selection (but, weirdly, not focus) and won't report it to descendants in any meaningful way.

@treyhunner @pg sort of a small screed on how i have contextualized this in the past, i find that jr or non-cs backed colleagues have underexamined notions about how fast computers actually are, but this usually manifests in assuming slow perf is Normal and not the result of bad planning or design. i’ve started asking people if they think a late 90s pc could do something we perceive or assume being slow on modern hardware and try to tease apart if we think the web platform is truly that much more inefficient. https://turbotime.turboteam.xyz/notice/AfkN61GtqaJzaWhD7o

got back into the rhythm of returnal again...

a sort of corollary to this, because i’m obsessed with comparing things to food and cooking, is that i think one of the most rewarding things in cooking is learning to quickly or at least comfortably prepare your own comfort foods. chicken fingers, karaage, mac n cheese, hamburgers, burritos, rice balls, french fries. there’s a lot of stuff out there that’s highly convenient to acquire prefab as it were, but few things compare to making your own fast food imo, or like, having that fluency with it to know what it is you love about it and to feel some agency over it. doesn’t take anything away from going out for it either, just makes it a more nuanced thing.

@bryanjclark didn't realize bumble had a webapp

i understand that this is a recurring trope for computer folks that came up in the basic->dos->win era, but there's a definite analog to me between the era of cuisine where people stopped making their own mayo or bought tv dinners and the current era of computing where making your own exe is prohibitive and inconvenient

fun seeing favicons changing overnight

@heybenji i feel like i’ve gone down this path a bunch of times but i think what we want are just better open formats. rtf sucks, but draftjs has a pretty compelling json serialization imo. that said i think html is probably the thing i gravitate to more than markdown, which is limiting in its own frustrating ways. we need some way to give arbitrary attribution to runs and blocks of text, html i think is the best because you can go full DTP with it but there’s probably a good serialized format that’s mostly wysiwyg too (probably some postscript/pdf…). i mean, digital files are great, but the printed page - what will compare with it???

are you looking to implement passkeys in a small hobby project in node/js, learn small gotchas that you might run into via this hilariously documented gist i wrote up last year that will answer questions you may have like "how do i import an spki key in nodejs" https://gist.github.com/nsfmc/d74993d49126fdfc5f8c51a012126675

@bryanjclark it's all so grim even before you get to the "deposition left unresolved with whistleblower found dead" angle. oof.

this is the most michael claytonish thing i've read recently https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/12/business/john-barnett-boeing-whistleblower-dead.html?unlocked_article_code=1.cE0.WyME.LTftu29E0-x-&smid=url-share

a big refrain from me is often "machines should work; people should think" which is shorthand for "be pragmatic, the computer can do it fast enough" most of the time but also "if the computer is being comically slow, it's because we haven't thought through what's happening" the two can exist side by side in any case.
