Gmail, Outlook, they all offer an “Unsend” feature – but did you know that this only delays sending your email?

Do you use the “Unsend” feature or do you dislike the forced delay? Let us know in the comments!

in reply to Tuta

If I'm correct it was just a spin-off from a google experiment function that would keep your emails from being send on weekend nights to avoid sending drunken emails to your boss/friends and then you had to 'approve' them in the morning to be actually send.

The 'unsend' function is so obvious that it's just delayed, but I did use it a few times to correct grammar.

in reply to Tuta

I don’t use the features on the clients you mentioned above, but I do on another one and the unsent message goes into my draft, so I can fix any typos or other errors I might have typed.

O Governo AD quer rever a disciplina de Cidadania por causa das “amarras ideológicas”.
Nem sequer vou discutir esse ponto de vista, porque desta vez, tenho uma solução fácil, rápida e que pode agradar a todos.
Nem sempre é fácil, mas desta vez, é! Façam isto:
Se querem afastar-se de ideologias políticas, baseiem-se na ciência e na evidência. Reúnam um painel de especialistas (sociólogos e psicólogos) e deixem-nos definir o currículo.
Problema resolvido. De nada.
in reply to Catia Filipe

Agora… podem é surpreender-se ao perceber que muitas das questões abordadas em cidadania não são ideológicas, mas suportadas pela evidência… mas pronto, ao menos desamarraram-se da esquerda e amarraram-se à ciência!


#serviceToot on 2024-11-08 there will be a "planned downtime" for the #IzzyOnDroid servers (repo + website) from approx. 3:30 to 5:30 am UTC as the provider performs network changes (router maintenance). Just an advance notice so you're not surprised then 😉

PS: the mirrors will not be affected of course. That's why they are at different locations 😜

Sounds roughly like the downtime window the admin of my instance sent out.

It seems to me that programming discourse has been dominated for several years by calls for intentional mediocrity, either voluntary or enforced. We're supposed to use languages, or language subsets, that are approachable to the average programmer. What happened to beating the averages (paulgraham.com/avg.html) and "succinctness is power" (paulgraham.com/power.html)? To using every available tool to make hard problems solvable and keep increasing our effectiveness without artificial limits?

This thought was triggered by a comment on an article about Rust: lobste.rs/s/ktwhai/rust_prism#…

To be clear, language complexity isn't a good thing for its own sake. Still, reading that comment made me have that sudden reaction.

in reply to Matt Campbell

This, slightly further down in the comments, along with the idea of Kernighan's Lever, gets to the problem with that sort of flexing:

"This implies that programmers exist in isolation. Most of the code I read was not written by me. If the subset of the language that I stick to is a completely disjoint subset to the one a collaborator sticks to, we can’t review each others’ code. If I jump into a new project and it’s using a distinct subset of the language to the one 1/2

in reply to Matt Campbell

this feels like the consequence of a bigger shift from programmers as heroes to programmers as good team players, necessitated by the scale of the internet and what it enables


@torvalds on the removal of some [russian] entries from the MAINTAINERS file:

lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-%3Dwh…

"'It's entirely clear why the change was done, it's not getting reverted [...]

[…] the "various compliance requirements" are not just a US thing.

If you haven't heard of Russian sanctions yet, you should try to read the news some day. […]

[…] I'm Finnish. Did you think I'd be *supporting* Russian aggression? Apparently it's not just lack of real news, it's lack of history knowledge too."



A friend came to visit me yesterday, and he was sneezing. And I said “is that covid?” And he goes “I don’t think so, it’s just a cold”.

Tested him on the spot.

He had covid.

I really believed something good would’ve come out of this: widespread testing, architectural changes for ventilation in public buildings, rethinking sanitary regulations on food production, work from home as default, universal basic income, etc.

Instead everyone is just trying really hard to forget and pretend it never happened.

All the people who think calling Trump a fascist is an exaggeration, or just a political attack, should consider something.

Wanting to close the borders, bombing a synagogue, naming left-leaning people as "degenerates" doesn't make you a fascist. Those are just the natural courses of action that the fascist ideas lead you to.

Fascism is a set of ideas and theories. Well defined about a century ago, first in Italy, then mostly in Spain and Germany.

And the thing is that if you read the transcriptions of the speeches the Italian and Spaniard ideologues from the 20 and 30s of the last century, you will be surprised how close they are to the ones by, not only the 2024 unleashed version of Trump, but also from its 2016 tamer version or pretty much most of the mainstream republican party politicians at large.

"Fascist" is not just a generic violent boogie man. It's a very specific set of ideas which are becoming increasingly mainstream among the global right.

Trump is a fascist. Putin is a fascist, even if he pretend to be fighting them in Ukraine. Netanyahu is a fascist even if he shields behind the Holocaust to commit genocide. A fascist is not someone who covers themselves in nazi regalia. A fascist is someone whose ideas match with fascism.

Bear in mind that the difference between a "disposable" vape and a "technically rechargeable" one is basically just the addition of a USB port that had to be intentionally removed from the off-the-shelf electronics used to make it.

Selling "technically rechargeable" devices as cheaply as the "disposable" ones they replace won't fix the problem.

reuters.com/world/uk/uk-ban-di…

in reply to Dr Craig Dalȝell

In terms of material use, ten "disposable" vapes are about the technological equivalent of a smartphone.

Imagine a phone you threw over your shoulder after making ten calls.

Now imagine the next "disposable" device that uses the same amount of materials.

We shouldn't be banning individual products. We need a comprehensive Circular Economy Bill that bans ALL products that don't fit strict criteria of sustainability, reuse, repair, remanufacture and compostability.

Hello!
Who knows how do I pin a package to a specific version in #archlinux? Something like apt's package pinning in Debian.

Why? I don't want to update my kernel to newest versions where the team just silently removed more than 10 Russian developers from maintainers list. This is not fair and I will stay on honest versions with honest maintainers list.

software developers devalue pretty much all the senses other than sight. this is why AR/VR arent really going anywhere. you can sit in a virtual F1 car and drive around in high fidelity 90fps, you can summon 3D objects into your lounge, but your fingers just pass through them. you can pick up a high-poly raytraced banana, and not only does it not feel like a banana, it doesn’t feel like anything at all. it doesn’t even smell like a banana. our brains didn’t evolve for such a disappointing banana


Russell Contreras zeroes in on findings of the PRRI "Challenges to Democracy" study. Who, precisely wants to round up immigrants and put them into camps?

79% of Republicans vs. 22% of Democrats

75% of white evangelicals
61% of white Catholics
58% of white mainline Protestants

in reply to William Lindsey

As Moira Donegal reminds us, Trump's plan to round up immigrants, put them into camps, and deport them is a "moral abomination," no matter how many white Christians lust for it and how the corporate media whitewash it.

"What is being proposed is a vast cruelty, a human tragedy, and a costly national investment in racism."

@ZBennoui to be fair, variations on this exact issue were always a problem, especially for people who didn't have an ad blocker, and couldn't have afforded an ad-free search experience, even if that was an option.


Morning everyone. so today is our tenth wedding anniversary. I can't believe where the time's gone. What can I say? They've been the ten most wonderful years of my life, no word of a lie. We've exchanged presents already. I bought @brian_hartgen a bottle of his favourite Krug, and he bought me some very good Penhaligans perfume, it's called high grove Bouquet and smells of lime blossom, mimosa and a touch of cedar, it's delicious. We'll just be having our normal kind of day, but I'll be thanking God and @brian_hartgen for the last ten years, and vowing to make the very most of every minute we have left together.

OpenSSL obviously does not have a single test case using this function. I lack words.
