Why have a maximum of 64 characters?
MonstraG · 3 months ago
Yea, I think they (proton) just didn't properly read (misunderstood) the guidelines.

> 3.1.1.2 Password Verifiers

> ...

> 2. Verifiers and CSPs SHOULD permit a maximum password length of at least 64 characters.

In other words, if you want to put a max length, don't put 20, put at least 64.

What was misunderstood in the command key? The link mentions nothing of the sorts

Don't know anything about misunderstandings, but the symbol in question is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Looped_square

Are you using enlarged text or native 1440p? If the latter, have you used 4k or retina displays in the past? It’s hard to go back after that.
MonstraG · 7 months ago
Native 1440p, never used retina nor 4k.

I know the anthropomorphizing feels inaccurate to some. What is the "correct" way to describe this in one word other than "personality"? We use "respond" in programming, but a machine can't really "respond," can it? It can pass data from a server to a client. We just use shorthand for these types of actions because they are so easily analogous to the human action.

I would go for "writing style" or "behavior", but would almost be okay with "personality"

Depressing, since I used to like Python. Though I was always aware of the 100x slowdown (or cost increase) vs. C++.

PyPy isn't much worse than Dart on this chart.

The interesting bit to me is JavaScript giving Go a run for its money. To me this indicates that Python could be a lot faster than it is.

I wonder where Swift would fit in?

Oh no it's the bouncy ball chart.

Please, if you have enough time, watch this https://youtu.be/EH12jHkQFQk

and avoid making any decisions using this chart.

MonstraG commented on An approach to optimizing TypeScript type checking performance   edgedb.com/blog/an-approa... · Posted by u/beerose

We accidentally had a regression slip into our TS once that made it take over 7 seconds to typecheck a file, and that was surprisingly painful to diagnose. It meant our CI builds were slower, our local builds were slower, and the language server (in VS code, sublime, etc) would just randomly go unresponsive while editing. If there were tooling to track deltas in that per-file we would have noticed it immediately.

Can you share what was the problem, just in case we have it too?
