I can save you some of that research. The KeePass family of password managers are open source and based around a shared file format. They save your passwords in an encrypted file on your computer or phone’s local drive. An ecosystem of apps by different people can parse that file format (after you enter your master password), and at least one app can export as CSV or HTML, so migration is not a problem.
Since your passwords are in a local file, there is no online password manager that can be hacked. If you worry that your local password manager software will have malicious updates posted, you only have to read news at the time you download an update, which can be as infrequent as you like.
If you need to share passwords among your devices, you can store the encrypted file in a generic file syncing service such as Google Drive or Dropbox. Those services are less of a target for hackers than dedicated password managers, and even if someone obtains that file, your passwords will be safe as long as your master password is strong.
The more relevant post is the the one from the cohost maintainers linked in that post’s first comment: https://cohost.org/staff/post/6403911-may-2024-financial-u. In summary, at that time Stripe forbade use of their service to pay for tips or subscriptions that do not result in access to exclusive content.
In Finder you could always drag and drop a file to move it. (In certain cases I forget the details of, holding Command is necessary to move instead of copy, as indicated by the cursor.)
Since about 8 years ago, you can also move a file via the keyboard by selecting the file, hitting Command-C to Copy, navigating to the new folder, and hitting Option-Command-V to Move the pasted file. This doesn’t match Windows’s Cut/Paste workflow, but I think Copy makes more sense as a first step. For consistency with Cut elsewhere, one would expect Cut to delete the file until it is pasted, but on Windows it doesn’t.
Finder windows are resizeable in the same way as all other macOS windows. In older versions you had to drag the drag handle in the bottom right. For a while now, you can drag on any window border, when the cursor turns into a double arrow. You can also click or Option-click the green window button to make the window full-screen or zoom it to show all contents.
I disagree that the paper not mentioning ‘OVER’ implies that the paper authors secretly think pipe syntax is a bad idea. They probably just wanted to keep the paper concise, or forgot about that one less-used bit of syntax.
Do you think that ‘OVER’ keyword implies something fundamentally wrong about pipe syntax? If so, how?
Hacker News filters out Unicode emoji characters from comments (example: ), so it’s not “of course”. I assume the developers think emoji are too distracting.
`git blame` lets you identify the commit that changed the line you’re looking for, but doesn’t make it easy to then view further details. The author might prefer GitHub’s blame view because it has these features:
• each hunk has a link to the commit that changed it, as opposed to needing to copy a line’s SHA and then run a new `git show …` command
• each hunk has a link to view the `blame` as of that older commit, as opposed to needing to copy a line’s SHA and then run a new `git blame … path/to/same/file` command
• the code is syntax highlighted by default, without you needing to configure your local Git install to use https://github.com/dandavison/delta
These features lead to a better experience than `git blame`. Various IDEs, editor plugins, TUIs, and GUIs provide similar features.
I still store most of my music in iTunes (renamed to Music in later macOS versions). I’m also happy with the tag editing of iTunes, especially after installing some custom tag-editing AppleScripts from https://dougscripts.com/itunes/index.php and modifying some of those scripts.
However, I am rethinking storing all my music in iTunes given that it can’t play Opus or FLAC files (last I checked) and it makes loud glitchy sounds when it plays an MP3 file whose sample rate is 32k instead of 44.1k. I’ve already had to give up on storing all my music files in the iTunes folder now that my entire music library doesn’t fit on my laptop’s storage. Thus, I have been using Meta more.
