I don't know how this font is encoded, but it's often the case in modern fonts that variant glyphs are mapped to the same code point (i.e. U+0030 in this case) so you can't directly type the variants. If you want to use them then your software needs to understand how to select font features.
gVisor also has a complete userspace networking stack that you can pull in, which makes it a lot easier to do some neat things like run an HTTP server responding to packets intercepted via eBPF and sent to an AF_XDP socket, which would otherwise be a pain.
Finally. All I want for Christmas is a 5K, HDR, 120Hz display. I'm managing with 4K, 120Hz, and scaling to 2560x1440 in Mac OS, but with the latter option I lose HDR. I can't give up 120Hz after getting used to it on all my devices.
I'm right there with you. A 27" 5K 120Hz is my endgame monitor. I would be perfectly happy spending my working hours in 5K, and then switching to my gaming pc to play in 1440p mode.
Technically you could already do that on DisplayPort (since DP2, the standard of which was released 6 years ago), manufacturers don't want to do anything other than high refresh rates.
I just want a damn widescreen hidpi display (I don't care about HDR or HRR), but I've yet to see one, let alone one that seems any good.
What are you using for displays in this range? I've been using 4K displays at home exclusively for ~5 years and it's rare to even see 4K display over 60hz. I assume they're quite pricy still?

Likewise. I'd also like to be able to run rootless quadlets with the DynamicUser= option. DynamicUser= has been a great way to restrict privileges for system services, and it just doesn't fit with podman right now.
> Because Kubernetes without operators is not Kubernetes.
Alright, so, what is it, then? I've been unfortunate to work at firms that generally have a minimal level of competency with Kubernetes, but across several billion dollars worth of firms, not a one has used operators in any capacity, but they leverage Kubernetes substantially. Help me understand the gap, would you?
Cynically, I feel like these details are often lost in the two-week sprint cycle or other realities of modern software development process. The Figma file didn't specify autofocus, the PM doesn't care about it, and the engineer just wants to close their ticket so they can move on to the next one. It's a login page, who cares? What revenue or business metric does it drive? Same reason the input field for the code doesn't have its input mode set to numeric (to show a numeric keyboard on mobile devices), and the same reason the email field doesn't have the email input mode set (to show the email input keyboard with @ and . prominently featured).
The root of all of these is: nobody really cares. The PM is just trying to cram features X, Y, and Z in before the sprint ends so that metrics A, B, and C can go up. The engineer (as you said) just wants to close tickets and implements whatever is in the ticket, regardless of whether it's the right way. QA probably caught this, but the ticket was prioritized as a P3 and buried with the other 459 P3 bugs that nobody is ever going to look at. The senior exec doesn't even know what autofocus is and just wants the $ chart to go up rather than down. He's really the only one on the totem pole with any power to say "Wait, stop, this isn't right--it isn't beautiful, it isn't complete, and the little details matter." But he won't because he is a businessman, not a craftsman.
Another post in two weeks that reminds me of that S.Jobs quote I lean on a lot: “When you’re a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you’re not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will ever see it. You’ll know it’s there, so you’re going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through.”
Nobody seems to care about the aesthetic or quality anymore. Software development has become a beige, boring assembly line where brains go in as input and "Metrics Go Up" comes out the other end of the factory.
> these details are often lost in the two-week sprint cycle or other realities of modern software development process
Indeed. This is why we should abandon the "modern" software development process. Bureaucracy & consulting appears to be producing shit software. By whatever means necessary, the developer needs to be made to care more about the quality of the final product.
Making "UI/UX" a label, project category or other management abstraction is a gigantic red flag to me. This tells me it is everyone's job, therefore it is effectively no one's job. Someone needs to take deep ownership in things that end in "experience" or it won't work.
You'd be amazed at what others around you will start stepping up to if you set even the tiniest example. Certainly, there are those who will do bad work on purpose, but you won't change those. All you can do is your best and let HR take care of the rest.
It's the same reason why links are not a tags. The dashboard of my company is a React app, but it has proper routing so opening a new tab at mycompany.com/account goes to your account.
At the end of last year the menu was redesigned, and the links which were a tags were replaced with some other element. So now you can't ctrl click to open pages in new tabs, which was a big part of my workflow.
Oh and the labels on the design of the new menu were removed, but of course there is no title tag to explain what the items are.
I filed a bug report shortly after it was released, and it is - and probably for the rest of eternity will be - in the backlog.
What bugs me most in these stories is that they are actively destroying what worked before. Barbarians with big frameworks. Their company pays them while they make the product worse and nobody notices. Even with user feedback, because instead of going to a solver, it goes to the problem itself.
> So now you can't ctrl click to open pages in new tabs, which was a big part of my workflow.
I came across the exact opposite recently. With Ghostery enabled, one of the company owned websites won’t work with regular clicks. The only way to go to the link is to open in a new tab/window. Infuriating.
I've only had a brief stint in Java in my career, but I got to learn about and use jOOQ, and I think it's such a fantastic option in this space. I'm still a diehard SQLAlchemy fan, and I'd use it in Python-land. For Go, I think sqlc is a decent option, but it's no jOOQ. I'd love jOOQ for Go.
> Curious what others are using for 10Gb at home? I'm all ears and will be grateful if you have recommendations.
Lots of options. What’s your budget, both for purchase and power draw? How many ports do you need? 10GBASE-T or is SFP+ okay? How much noise can you tolerate (i.e. is this in a basement closet or right next to your desk)?
Recently moved to Seattle from NYC. I'm enjoying Seattle, but it's a joke of a city compared to NYC. Seattle's public transportation—while improving with light rail—pales in comparison. Seattle is, overall, pedestrian-hostile. There are neighborhoods that are themselves walkable, but sidewalks will disappear when walking between them, or you'll be forced into situations where you're uncomfortably close to high-speed traffic (e.g. the Ballard bridge).
Seattle has enough good food to keep me relatively happy (even pizza and bagels), but for any given cuisine, you might have one or two good options. Getting to them probably involves driving, and they're probably not open late or even open at all early in the week (maybe this is a pandemic artifact; I moved here in 2021). Seafood here is great, though. I think Seattle wins in that single category.
I think NYC's biggest win over Seattle (and every single other city in the US) is the combination of quantity, quality, and accessibility. You have some of the world's best food, shopping, culture, and jobs accessible to you at all hours of the day via a subway ride (or in many cases within walking distance). The city is your backyard: you don't need a huge apartment because there's a good chance you won't really be spending much time there.
That said, after 10 years there I grew tired of that lifestyle and wanted to spend more time outdoors and exploring the west coast. If you really enjoy the outdoors—hiking, skiing, mountain biking, climbing, etc.—then NYC is vastly inferior to Seattle. I may find myself back in NYC some day because I miss the things that it's the best at, but for now, I'm enjoying doing something different. I think it's very easy to fall into a hedonic routine in NYC.
> and they're probably not open late or even open at all early in the week (maybe this is a pandemic artifact; I moved here in 2021)
No, it's a Seattle thing. One of my major peeves with this city (and entire region) is how hard it is to find places that close later than 9pm, even in the summer when the days are really long.
I think the outdoors culture here is so strong that people don't really care about having things to do late at night in the city.
Eh, I think it's kind of an "everywhere-since-the-pandemic" thing after all.
Atlanta is the same way and we used to have a HOPPIN' late night scene with SO many good late night spots, now it's almost a struggle to get something even like fast food after 9/10pm. That may be slowly coming back though it seems like.
I grew up in NYC and currently live in Seattle. The appeal of Seattle over NYC is the outdoors, substantially cheaper housing (you can get a 4br detatched house in seattle that's a 20 minute bus ride to downtown for less than this median apartment price), and better weather but yeah the food doesn't really compare.
This said, I think LA wins over NYC in the food department outside of the very high end michilin type stuff and certain specific kinds of ethnic food like italian.
>> Recently moved to Seattle from NYC. I'm enjoying Seattle, but it's a joke of a city compared to NYC
Don't live in Seattle, but my friends who do live there joke that someday the people moving there from NYC and complaining about the city they just moved to will figure out that the airlines fly routes in both directions.
I empathize with this so hard. I have an early first-initial-last-name Gmail account as well. It's both very generic in the United States, and when combined, a common first name in Brazil. It's nearly unusable at this point, but I've had it since 2004 and it'd be very difficult to migrate away from it. I have a filter to delete any email from a .br domain, but just the amount of Brazilian spam that makes it through is torrential.

It also seems like there's a "slashed zero" glyph in the font, though I don't know how to actually type it:
