Our crypto cookies implement end-to-end encryption by creating a digest of the input morsels and securing their transit between the front end and the back end. Be warned, certain failure modes can result in over-encryption or return of partially-encrypted ciphertext to the sender.

Do you mean this (~3m04s)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmKrKTwtukE&t=184s

That was the desktop mode, showing KDE Plasma (a linux desktop environment).

Also, Blender on the left screen and Godot on the right screen!


This usage originates from Seeing Like a State. There was an HN thread the other day as well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45505539


Myself.

Been a freelance dev for years, now beginning a "sabbatical" (love that word).

Planning to do a lot of learning, self-improvement, and projects. Tech-related and not. Preparing for the next volume (not chapter) of life. Refactoring, if you like, among other things.

I'm excited.


B is for Bureaucracy.


I'm wondering if AasishPokhrel created this repo for the purpose of being the billionth.


AasishPokhrel made 2 repos yday - shit and yep. no activity between may 17th and june 10th.

i have no idea if its possible to calculate the rate at which repos are being created and time your repo creation to hit vanity numbers


It's pretty easy to game this. Just keep creating repos till you hit # one billion and remove the old ones. Their API makes it trivial. The only issue will be rate limits, and other people simultaneously creating repos, so it's a matter of luck.


There was a guy who got fired from Meta for creating excessive automated diffs in pursuit of a certain magic number


I hope PR #80085 was worth it.


69 doesn't seem excessive


Sounds interesting, is there anything online about this?


I don't believe they will renumber the old ones. Also, it can't be trivial, since two people can try this, and only one can win.


The one who lost doesn't get discussed in this thread.


Yes, but that doesn't make it trivial.


There is always one trillion to look forward to!


bogus aí agents stuck in loops will get us there soon enough


I think he’s in university for software development in Nepal, and it’s really touching that a milestone could go so deeply into the world. Hopefully he has a big spot for this on his resume and can find a great career in development!


I don't get why this needs a big spot in his resume, and why it should lead to a great career. A company/hiring manager that thinks being lucky to hit a magic number on some system has any relevance to work, I'd rate as very insane...


I will be really sus of someone's intelligence if they mentioned this as an achievement. It's fine as a joke, though.


I find a bit of humor in the fact that this is completely unrequited attention. There's even a chance the guy is oblivious.


I highly doubt it, but that does sound possible.



Thanks for sharing, never knew how much Koreans and horses have in common.


I've had multiple occasions to link to this video recently, and here's another.

It's Leslie Lamport giving the closing keynote at SCaLE a few months ago. It's title was "Coding Isn't Programming".

I really enjoyed it. And as someone mentioned in another comment, he's got a fun sense of humor. I was there in person and got to meet him and exchange a few words after, which was cool.

Watch the first 2m10s and see if it hooks you.


I was recently introduced to this at PyCon US. A group of us played it for a good chunk of an evening and had a blast. The vocabulary quickly became an inside joke. I've played it a bit since I got back from the conference to great effect.

They've launched pre-orders for a physical set, but you don't need that in any way to play.

Or in other words..

Person and many other person do thing in place before, like thing big big. Many good-feel. Person want do again many many, and want other many person do same.

Before, person-do-thing in think-place, no in real-place, but person-do-thing make-person want make real and hard thing. Person want have real thing before many other person?
