I have just reached the point at which I am so consistently grumpy about how complex it is to build and deploy secure, high-quality software that it is interfering w/ my ability to build and deploy said software.
@lina Do you mean RBF? or female faces?
We do soft deletes in PostGres with auto-generated views that permanently encode "undeleted" vs the raw table. But article's point of referential integrity is a big one.
Of course the first thing that came to mind on this is xtdb @xtdb_com bitemporal database, where built in soft-deletes are part of bitemporality (first class). It is mentioned exactly once in the HS comments so far.

A discussion about 'soft deletion' is currently #1 on HN! On reflection, "making soft deletes a first-class concept" feels like a useful way to frame 'bitemporality' for the uninitiated 💡
I'm looking forward to…

Does anyone use Microsoft Teams because they actually think it's the best communication platform, or is it just because your company policy forces you to?

@veer66 It's commercial and by FaceBook, so I assume that if anything is non-free, that one is. Am I wrong?
On the JVM we are used to strings as collections of chars. Not so in JS. But you can still traverse them with codepoints!

@souldessin Neither does Metager. DuckDuckGo and WordPress, hovewer, do.
@souldessin Google, for instance, does NOT use the slash in its searches
Whoa! TIL that it's actually okay to have a slash before your query strings, and that some servers require it!
myexample.com?an-arg vs myexample.com/?an-arg

*Escape to Freedom* is a new animated video from the Free Software Foundation (FSF), giving an introduction to the concepts behind software freedom: both what we gain by having it, and what rights are at stake. #UserFreedom #EscapetoFreedom https://u.fsf.org/escape-to-freedom
Apparently, my way of just using twitter through certain browser profiles doesn't save me from nonfree Javascript. https://www.fsf.org/twitter

Had a SUPER productive weekend! Finally finished Half-Life 2 and can't wait for the sequel.
We also upgraded our Dell Inspiron 7000 from Windows 98 to Windows XP and it's time to install Mozilla Firefox 1.0 and Thunderbird 1.0
Looking forward to trying these new apps!

@yoshuawuyts Do you think that is a sign of stability concerns, or the mark of active community?
