Let’s talk about a very useful function: the NFC tag reader/scan on the iPhone. It would be great to have a simple tag placed, for example, at the home entrance, to turn on/off the lights using Shortcut. Yes, it would be. But it is not . Because the NFC tag reader paired with the Shortcut app, it’s almost useless because: It requires you to have the iPhone unlocked: First point, you must have the phone unlocked. That’s stupid be..

On a January day in 1964, something remarkable happened: Simon Wiesenthal took the afternoon off. He parked himself at a table on the terrace of Tel Aviv’s Café Roval, soaking up the sunshine as if he wished to bottle it. The friend he’d come to meet was late, but Wiesenthal had no reason to complain. He was still lounging with his drink and his reading when the loudspeaker crackled to life over the murmur of café chatter. There was a ph....

Solution to visit metro stations Here is a quick look at my solution to visit all the metro stations in Paris in one day. The trip start with Château de Vincennes on the east side of the map (start of the line 1). Route time: 830 minutes. For now, this does not display the route with backtracing. Instead, it assumes you'll choose your own shortest path back to the next step on the journey. Code at ewalk153/onedayinparis . I'..

In this post, I am going to talk about Celery, what it is, and how it is used. What is Celery From the official website: Celery is a simple, flexible, and reliable distributed system to process vast amounts of messages, while providing operations with the tools required to maintain such a system. Wikipedia says: Celery is an open source asynchronous task queue or job queue which is based on distributed message passing. While it supports sch....

You are programming a tool in C++. Not a huge tool, not a tool where you care enough about performance to say, use faster data structures than those provided by the standard library, but one where you feel compelled to add some useful options. After a brief and uninspiring survery of the field you settle on the old standard for implementing program settings, you’re going to parse argv. Parsing command line options falls into the nightm..

One of my recent discoveries is A Collection of Unmitigated Pedantry by Bret Devereaux, an historian who’s been posting great content over the years. His Fireside Fridays, for example, provide intriguing musings on varied topics. In this week instalment, professor Devereaux takes on the different applications of blockchain technology as seen from a historian’s perspective. Really, this is less about the technologies themselves and mor..

The still experimental feature of CSS container queries allows us to make child elements listen on the current layout state of their parent element via pure CSS declarations. With the recent implementation of Google Chrome's experimental flag for CSS container queries we're now able to play around with this upcoming feature and already get some insights into it.

We were recently testing PassKit as a way of managing membership cards for giving societies. Passkit is very up-front that they are not a CRM and strongly suggest using their API for integrating with outside systems, or for editing pretty much any data. To kick the tires, we set up some very basic scripts to connect to the Passkit API. A REST example can be found on their docs. The example below shows how to get a programs’s info us..

So uh, we set up Nitter, over at tw.artemislena.eu . Also, Matrix isn't currently working, we hope it will work soon after it has synced stuff, but can't guarantee anything. A lot of people tried to reach us over Jami instead, which didn't work, so we aren't officially reachable over that anymore, meaning currently, you should probably try either Signal or e-mail (or CryptPad, if you have to). Alternatively, fc17 has an alt at fairdust.sp..

Update: I finally found a way to go over the limit in Lunar v5.5.1 Exactly 3 months and a day after placing an order through a Romanian Apple reseller, I finally got my 14-inch M1 Max.

I first got the wrong configuration (base model instead of CTO), had to return it to them after wasting a day on migrating my data to it, they sent my money back by mistake, had to pay them again, and after many calls and emails....

My little lab can afford some experimental allowances given that I'll never (hopefully) breach the "thousands of hosts" mark. One experiment that paid off recently was ditching Traefik v1 for a hybrid setup that uses Nomad , consul-template , Caddy , and wireguard in order to provide the HTTP routing layer for my services. I think it's an interesting solution, and it has proven a) particularly resilient and b) very easy to mai....
