I know News Corp are evil, but this pic looks more mocking than heartfelt.

Probably not; I’d expect the places where you need something like UUIDv7 (large, eventually-consistent systems) to not be entirely suitable because you can have records added out of sequence. You’d have to add a received-at field - but in that case you may as well just use a standard incrementing ID as your primary key.
In time-based pagination, the suggested fix to lots of data in a selected timespan is:
simply adding a limit to the amount of records returned (potentially via a query parameter) transparently solves it.
This means clients can’t see all the results, unless you add a way to view other pages of data, which is just pagination again. Or is the intended design that clients view either the first x results (the default) or view all results?
The problem with articles like OPs and others is that they don’t allow custom sorting, which is often a requirement, e.g. interfaces that present the data in a table, where column headers can be clicked to sort.
I thought the “after a few pints” bit explained that already!
I don’t think it’s even enshittification (probably costs more to run than Assistant), it’s just Google desperate to find a use for its new AI.
News was reporting yesterday that there was an arrest warrant out for Volodymyr Z in Poland but that he just popped over the border back to Ukraine.
This is very cool.
It’s always a good day when you realise a DSL is justified.
[Truss complained that the British press wasn’t] “particularly deferential to politicians”
Why should they be? Their job should be to inform the public, not suck up to those in power.
I’d second Mozilla sync, especially as you can self-host the server.
I use that one on Android, since I have a OLED screen and it seems to do wonders for my battery life.
“Disney understandably may want to benefit from the privacy and confidentiality that arbitration brings, rather than having a wrongful death suit heard in public with the associated publicity,” says Jamie Cartwright, partner at law firm Charles Russell Speechlys.

If that’s what they want, they clearly never heard of the Streisand Effect. This is disgraceful behaviour from Disney, and I hope they come to severely regret it.
Yup, I think a lot of people just use their web browser for everything, and they can definitely just switch. Outside of work, how many non-techies have set up their email to use a native program? Very few, in my experience.
I think documents are sometimes the exception, since there’s a sizable (perhaps older) group that like to use Word for everything.
Oh I see - yes, if the seats around the women are automatically reserved then that exploit doesn’t work.
I was thinking first would be the fake booking to find where the women were sitting, then switch browsers/clear cookies/whatever and book with the real details.
The airline’s booking process is fairly standard except for the seat map which highlights seats occupied by women with the color pink. This information is not visible to male passengers, according to the airline, CNBC reported.
What’s to stop a man from claiming to be female to see the map of where women are sitting, and then booking an adjacent seat themselves?
I felt the same when reading that book, and I never finished it because following the rules he suggested produced horrible code.
If memory serves, he also suggested that the ideal if statement only had one line inside, and you should move multiple lines into a function to achieve this.
I once had to work on a codebase that seemed like it had followed his style, and it was an awful experience. There were hundreds of tiny functions (most only used once) and even with an IDE it was a chore to follow the logic. Best case the compiler removed most of this “clean” code and the runtime wasn’t spending most of its time managing the stack like a developer had to do.
I can see that on midwest.social, but on programming.dev it’s in English. I assume those previews are being fetched by each server, and yours is picking them up in German for some reason - not sure why, surely your US instance isn’t hosted in Germany‽
Oh, that’s LAN - I thought you’d put ian and I was trying to get the joke. Stupid sans-serif fonts.
It’s naïve to think that marketers have any interest in doing things ethically, unless there’s a legal or business reason to do so.
After duffing the ball all over the golf course, I sat on my duff, ate some duff, drank too many Duff beers, then some duffer threatened to duff me up because he thought I’d got his sister up the duff. After this duff day, I went into the woods and lay in the duff.
