I wouldn’t trust Microsoft with pictures of my cat, and this is a perfect example of why.
- Comment on What are You Working on Wednesday 3 days ago:
I’m rewriting how my ORM, Nymph.js handles access controls. Right now, it stores the access control vars (user, group, permissions) in the same table as all of the other data, which makes the full text search slow because it has to join the tables multiple times. I’m moving those access controls into the entity tables where all the joins start from, so a simple index can handle that before it even joins the FTS tokens table.
The hard part is going to be migrating existing data in my email service that uses Nymph. It’ll be multiple steps: create the new columns, make sure new entities add that data to both the new columns and the old way, migrate all entities to have the data in both, update the queries to use the new columns and stop storing data the old way, then delete all the old data. It’ll be the opposite of fun, but hopefully once I’m done it’ll be way faster.

- Comment on I’m not saying that I agree with right- or center-wing views, and I do condemn transphobia. However, do you think there should be a distinction between critiquing beliefs held by transgender people, and engaging in transphobia? 2 weeks ago:
Idk, I’m just not interested in policing other people’s genders.

Don’t worry, that stupid decision will be his responsibility to pay for when his dad dies, and there’s nothing he can do about that.

That’s silly. Here, I added an actual to-scale banana to this photo:

Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I would think it’s to resist corrosion, but there are plenty of cheaper metals to plate with that don’t corrode, so even that’s a stretch.

I don’t think inflation since the eighties is 1500%.

It’s probably be worth way more than 500k. I meant what they paid for it back then would only be like 350k today, despite the house being worth millions.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
That would be at least $350k in today’s money.

If you plug a power strip into each one of those empty plugs, you could power the whole house!

It seems like we could make this a lot more efficient by using pistons and having the sunlight push the pistons, turning a generator.

That’s better than those demon dragon-donkey hybrids from Shrek.

I mean, yeah, that sucks, but what can we do about it? Grow less food?
- Comment on Why make 250GB m.2 disks instead of 1TB 5 weeks ago:
More nand flash chips means more cost. Those chips are the highest cost in the BOM, so if a customer only needs 250GB, having a product for them means a sale instead of not a sale.
