I'm working on a HTML replacement right now. If I am to believe the author, it would solve her issue (I don't think so). But I don't know if I want to "share". Can I patent it? Good luck with that.
Going off-topic now, sort of.
The Open Source I see just isn't serious. We lose the right to have an opinion about a technology, to steer it, as that right is mediated by money, and it just evaporates, unless you can set the norm by being a major user, like a tech titan.
Markdown is special because we as developers are the users! Though tech titans dictate what we shall use. As developers we are seemingly in a concentration camp where others set the rules, and there is no escape, unless we surrender our work in the name of love, in the presence of those who absolutely don't, government included, and whose basic mode of operation is to make the profit on our work. It's just legalized demoralization, if not outright stealing.
If you're from a developing country you know what I'm talking about. There is no way to be creative and get paid. You are a beggar, no matter your talents. The end result is that human creativity remains untapped. That is the price we as a community pay every day. Heil the rise of AI, so we don't need each other any longer, and the abuse can stop ;-
There's crimes everyday, and we normalize them, if they are done by the trusted and verified, that talk about merit while they hire f*cks to do their bidding. As a community we are a harem, and they come to rape us, err, give us pleasure, whenever they feel like it, and expect us to love it. Well, don't you love your new toys? That is who we are. And we therefore tend to repeat the cycle in our homes, as "men".
In the end the framing as a technical issue is what marks us. It's is the safe zone, where we can deny the real issue, and cope. If you're a member of Nation Procrasti-me, you know what I'm talking about. Nation Procrasti-Me, Where Life Is Denied. And rent-seeking is the truth.
F*ck, how did we get so cooked? We shackled ourselves, duh. We are infants, or else outright dumb, dumb enough to give away our life force, for new toys to play. Worse, we dictate others do so too. That's when we stand on the side of the abuse, confidently like a toddler that just spread his shit all over the place and radiates "how good was that!".
IMHO, the service provider is the last one that should ever be able to see the keys :-). It's them we want to keep sensitive data away from
Keys are injected into the HW with public-key encryption. This requires that the HW have keys that only the HW knows (it's secret key). This key is made by a weak PUF circuit, which is basically a circuit that measures silicon process variation. So the keys are born in the silicon fab, through the natural variability of the silicon fabrication process. I didn't invent this, it is an old idea. Intel SGX uses the same approach.
The intended use case is for remote execution where the user (data owner) pays a service provider to run services on their hardware. It could still work if the user somehow prepares the chip herself and ships it to the service provider to be used on their future data, but most users would not want to bother with that first step.
You don't need to implement the full spec. Most devices only support the parts relevant to them. Hardware in general is very expensive though so I doubt a very long spec that helps you achieve comparability with existing devices is the thing holding you back.
Misses the mark. The motive for stupidity is corruption, hence the exercise of power. An anonymous unidentifiable third party gains from it and you are to pay for it with obstruction (active attacks are rare). By definition you don't know if it's corruption or stupidity, and that's why stupidity must exist, as unmotivated corruption, meaning it's just a part of the person or organization, for example ideology. Stupidity then tends to equate to incompetence. But to the observer victim there is no difference.
I'd wish they'd write a test suite or certification program instead.. Those ISO standard documents are nowadays better parseable with a chatbot, but they are still the wrong language for the job.
These terminals properly handle single + double width fonts. But the same thing could work with single + half width fonts, so i,j,l,:,!,.,' and space would fit in half the width. Does anyone know of such a font? I searched but couldn't find any bi-spaced font with full/half width cells.
It would not only fit more text on a line, while (probably) also being nearly as pleasing as a proportional font, but it would also still perfectly align indents. I think it could be a great markdown font.
"As of Windows 10, the contents [...] include the keys HostIpAddress, HostUrl, and ReferrerUrl.[...] they typically contain the domain name and exact URL of the original online download location".
It's time for an "en-INTL" (or similar) for international english, that is mostly "en-US", but implies a US-International keyboard and removes americanisms, like Logical Punctuation in quotes [1]. Then AI can start writing for a wider and much larger public (and can also default to regular ISO units instead of imperial baby food).
Additionally, it's kind of crazy we are not able to write any language with any keyboard, as nowadays we just don't know the idiom the person who sits behind the keyboard needs.
If you want to divide English into only two categories, I reckon US English (color, analyze, center) and International English (colour, analyse, centre) is the best divide. It’s imperfect—Canadians are mostly International but want analyze, and there are other controversial words like program/programme (US, CA and AU prefer program; GB and IN prefer programme)—but I think it’s the best divide if you want only two.
Windows distributes ISOs labelled English (en-US) and English International (en-GB) along this divide.
It’s also a valuable divide for reasons beyond language, because the USA really does have a habit of doing its own thing, even when pretty much the rest of the world has agreed on something different. Your US English locale can default to Fahrenheit, miles, pounds, Letter, and their bizarre middle-endian date format, while International English can default to Celsius, kilometres, kilograms, A4, and DD/MM/YYYY. It doesn’t sort out everything, but it gives a much better starting point. Not every non-American prefers DD/MM/YYYY, but even if they’d prefer something like DD.MM.YY or YYYY-MM-DD, DD/MM/YYYY is a whole lot better than MM/DD/YYYY.
en-DK is used for this in some cases, giving you English, but with metric units and an ISO keyboard among other things.
A dedicated one for International English, or heck, even just EU-English, would be great.
The EU websites just use en from what I can tell, but they also just use de, fr, sv, rather than specifying country (except pt-PT, which makes sense, since pt-BR is very common, but not relevant for the EU).
We should also enforce a standard where every website has to change their content to match the user’s preferred idiomatic diss, whether it be “yo momma”, “deez nuts”, “six seven”, or a series of hottentot tongue clicks recorded in Ogg Vorbiz.
