There is an annoying guy on our team (Apple fanboy), he insists on using Jpeg XL even though I have begged him to use png or av1 or literally anything that is reliably supported across all modern browsers. I ended up using https://github.com/zamfofex/jxl-crx

Ok, that's the marketing spiel, but how does this differ from a regular microwave?

The oven knows how to cook the food. It knows this because it knows how much energy has been put in to the oven, and how much energy was not put in to the food. By subtracting how much energy was put in, from how much came out, it obtains the kilojoules of energy the food absorbed, or the Gourmet Unit.

Does Miele also design missiles?

zebracanevra commented on Tsdocs.dev: Type docs for any JavaScript library   tsdocs.dev... · Posted by u/webartisan

Author here:

I created this because I found myself peeping inside type declaration files too often, and the only way to do that was by installing the package first.

tsdocs.dev helps you check the API surface of a good number of JS libraries and their past versions — usually a quick search away.

There's something powerful about speed and being able to answer questions in seconds that usually take minutes.

edit: The server might be overloaded with requests as we prime up our caches, but do visit back after HN's done hugging us to death.

You can show your support and help cover a part of server costs if this (or bundlephobia.com) saved you time.

Does this service do anything different/better than jsdocs.io?

I like the way jsdocs.io puts everything on one page.

I was initially confused when I looked up a package on tsdocs.dev and just got the readme. The actual type defs were tucked away out of sight in the hamburger menu. May just be a problem with the mobile site.

From my experience appliances tolerate a wide range of voltages. The outlets in my house routinely deviate from the standard 230V, with the lowest I have seen at 170V and highest at about 260V. I have not had any appliance malfunction.

Edit: I am not advising anyone to deliberately do stupid things, simply mentioning that from my experience the builtin margin is fairly large.

zebracanevra · 2 years ago
Thats quite a spread. Is it up to spec where you are?. In Australia we have 230V nominal, but the allowed range is from 216 (-6%) to 254 (+10%).

zebracanevra commented on I Hate MFA   alexmolas.com/2023/12/10/... · Posted by u/alexmolas

Author should try Bitwarden - it can generate TOTP codes along with remembering your password. It even autocopies your TOTP code when you autofill password, so you can log in without mousing around menus and losing flow.

Nullifies most of the benefit of MFA though so maybe keep your critical stuff like email logins out of it.

zebracanevra · 2 years ago
Bitwarden (as well as Vaultwarden) supports Passkeys as well now. You can even export the keys!
zebracanevra commented on WordPress plugins are a little sad?   chriscoyier.net/2023/11/1... · Posted by u/surprisetalk
CM30 · 2 years ago
Isn't this kinda expected? Most sites have fairly 'boring' needs, and hence the plugins they use solve 'boring' problems. Like a contact form, improved SEO or security, etc.

If you did a similar survey for the most popular plugins for almost any other CMS, I'm sure the results would be similar. Mostly normal business site logic, the shop system of the day (unless the CMS is for a shop itself), and some minor fixes to things people find lacking in the default settings.

For other examples, one of the most popular vBulletin plugins/mods back in the day was VB SEO, a paid SEO system that was basically the Yoast/AIOSEOP of its day, and one of the most popular XenForo plugins right now simply adds a bunch of BB code options for other video hosting sites and services.

Heck, even real life kinda does this. If you polled people about the 20 most popular home appliances bought in the last 10 years, the majority would be 'boring' things like a kettle, toaster, microwave, washing machine, fridge, etc. Nothing wrong with that, just that for most people, the most 'original' appliance equivalent would probably be a video game console, and the rest of their needs would be just the usual domestic house stuff.

The OP is saying most of these plugins should be built in.

Using your analogy, WordPress should be a furnished apartment, not one where you have to buy all the white goods yourself. (if renting)

The demo at the top of the homepage (https://reflect.net/) is a lot of fun. While I was watching, every time the puzzle got completed, people would shake their cursor in excitement, like saying, "yay we did it!!"

I don't think this demo is a good demonstration of the features this library can offer. Once you grab a piece, you seem to lock it for only you to use? This means there are no conflicts to resolve, the only conflict is when two people pick a piece at the same time, from which the only resolution is to give it to the user that picked the piece first.

I'd want a demo that shows a much better example of conflicts occuring.

zebracanevra commented on No joke: Cloudflare takes aim at Google fonts with ROFL   theregister.com/2023/09/2... · Posted by u/laktak

It’s worth reminding that browsers have stopped sharing caches across domains years ago, because cache state could be used for cross-site tracking.

So a shared fonts domain doesn’t help. With H/2 and H/3 it’s best to send everything from one domain.

zebracanevra · 2 years ago
why is it worth mentioning when the article doesn't say anything to the contrary?
