But chiles are hot!

Sometimes it’s the only option or the preferred option.

I haven’t. Maybe someday I’ll be willing to, but not today. It’s a hassle and extremely intrusive to provide my bank statement and photo ID to a company whose security I don’t trust.

That’s usually how I pay if someone requests money. Venmo is owned by PayPal but my account there works just fine.

I thought about that, but they ask for enough info that they’d be able to identify me. And then they’d probably ban me. At least right now I have the option of restoring my account, even though I have no intention of doing so.

Another senior dev here, one of those weirdos who likes light mode. Sometimes. VS Code’s light mode is blinding to me, and I never use it. But Nova’s is beautiful and I prefer it. It depends how well the app renders fonts and colors. The oversaturated colors used in most apps are a big problem.

There’s no way Apple lets the automaker access app data from your phone. Apps on the phone can’t even see data from other apps on the phone.

There are two ways I can think of for the infotainment to get the messages. The first is by OCR-ing the CarPlay screen, which is shady as hell. The second is a feature like this one where the car has Bluetooth notification integration.

The legacy Date object has many problems and this is one of them. Another infamous one is that it uses zero-based month numbers: January is the zeroth month and December the 11th month.

This will be fixed Any Day Now™️ when Temporal is released. This is a carefully designed library that supersedes Date and is currently waiting on some standards to be finalized.

And of course there have been forges launched, including SourceHut, Gitea, Gogs, Forgejo…

As Mark Twain said, “Never discuss politics, semicolons, tabs, or religion in polite company.”

But can you connect to the Microsoft Support Usenet server?

Not Plex, but yes. I use it with Microsoft Remote Desktop if I need to access a work-related computer that I keep at home while traveling.

I also use it for the more typical use case of a cloud server that I can ssh into even though it exposes zero ports publicly.
