It's a real risk. The British Indian Ocean Territory is going away, and by ICANN's rules, that means .io should as well.

When I worked at Amazon, I had to run a special Amazon Linux. But I could just install whatever I wanted. I used emacs with whatever plugins I wanted.

Big tech can be suprisingly not locked down!

Some of us would like our expensive hardware to work without hacked third party dongles.

You can build docker images with nix, in which case you can have every dependency be its own layer.

That is clearly not what these people are doing, though.

Futurelock is not about cancellation safety (cancellation is actually one solution to futurelock), though the related issues that are linked in that post are.

At an early stage startup, shipping a feature should not require "many meetings across product, legal, and engineering". Especially not one that can be mostly built in a day.

Ethernet doesn't support 240 W.

I think the real issue here is that two Android phones take photos with incompatible naming schemes.

I am sure that at some point someone thought the milliseconds should or should not be separated from the seconds and made that change without thinking through the consequences.

zoxide stores a rank for each directory based on how often you visit it, but you can manually adjust the scores.

Run `zoxide query -ls thing` to see the scores, and `zoxide add thing -s AMOUNT` to increase the score.

I don't think that's true. I have seen R4L folks reiterate time and again that C changes are allowed to break Rust code, and they will be the ones to fix it.

As you said, it's not static. You can update the content of pages.

You can also reorganize things and keep old links as 302s.

At a minimum, you should be aware of when you're breaking links and it should be a conscious decision.
