They don’t say as much but it appears they’ve been dropped by their payment processor. I have trouble believing they’d invalidate every single card with 5 days notice if they had a choice.

I love these proposals and while it probably makes sense for me to learn more about the languages that already implement it there's no denying that having them in JS is a win. =)

I wish I knew about python's [itertools](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html) before I started making [streaming-iterables](https://www.npmjs.com/package/streaming-iterables#api) for example.

I'm starting to use privacy.com with all my online accounts. If I really have trouble leaving deleting the vendor locked credit card I used to sign up is an easy way to go that gets the job done.

If you run `npm install` again it does detect the conflict and resolve it. https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package-locks#resolving-lockfil... But in practice I haven't found any changes that have been untenable to understand with a diff.

I had no idea what dragonofly is, it looks to be an experimental BSD based OS https://www.dragonflybsd.org/release54/

    DragonFly belongs to the same class of operating systems
    as other BSD-derived systems and Linux. It is based on the
    same UNIX ideals and APIs and shares ancestor code with
    other BSD operating systems. DragonFly provides an
    opportunity for the BSD base to grow in an entirely
    different direction from the one taken in the FreeBSD,
    NetBSD, and OpenBSD series.
    
    DragonFly includes many useful features that differentiate
    it from other operating systems in the same class.

I was having an argument over 1password's 2fa support not being a second factor. (I don't think it is.) However, it is so much safer than not using 2fa. In similar terms U2F is amazing and keeps you from being phished and has a great challenge/response protocol, if that was implemented in 1password (or browsers themselves thank you!) we'd all be a lot safer than not using it at all.

In 2018 I'm using an app to take screenshots of QR codes to generate one time codes. It's a sad state of the art, we need to do better.

Faked and discovered to include fake reactions that were then removed, are different situations. Mark has been producing high quality educational and entertaining videos that encourage kids to get into science. I have personally watched kids go nuts over his Fluidized air bed experiments, and convince their parents to try it out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=My4RA5I0FKs

It sucks there was fake content in there, but the device was real and the fake actions removed.

This is really awesome. For NYC what data is actually real time?

yes!

I would love to, but not all node versions and not all streams support async iteration yet! Also theres is a lot of utility to some of the stream types in bluestream. Concurrency for one thing. I've been working on an async iterator version of this but haven't yet started using it in production yet.

Hi I built this little stream processing library so I could write things like;

  const stats = await pipe(
    Nodes.scan({ fields: true }),
    map(generateStats),
    tap(() => count++),
    reduce(mergeGraphStats, {})
  )
and have generateStats and mergeGraphStats be async functions and not have to worry about error handling and pushing more than one object at a time in a read stream. We use it to process billions of events and objects a day. It makes nodejs streams fun to use.

Hope you find it as useful as we do.
