no. events and our decisions are abstracted far enough so that the illusion of free will is apparent. I think it’s very well impossible to fully distinguish between free will and fate from our limited perspective

povario@discuss.tchncs.deto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Which of these javascript expressions is false?English0·15 days agoprobably not true in most other langauges. although I’m not well versed in the way numbers are represented in code and what makes a number “NaN”, something tells me the technical implications of that would be quite bad in a production environment.
the definitive way to check for NaN in JS would probably be something like
// with `num` being an unknown value // Convert value to a number const res = Number(num); /* * First check if the number is 0, since 0 is a falsy * value in JS, and if it isn't, `NaN` is the only other * falsy number value */ const isNaN = res !== 0 && !res;

it’s not something your being forced to do. it’s the lifting of an unnecessary restriction that in turn gives you more power on your device.

this is what I do currently (GrapheneOS Network Permission), but I’m just curious if there are any other alternatives out there. it’s slightly easier to have trust the software I use from the get-go, not hinder it so it can be trusted, if that makes sense
I’m mostly fine with any launcher, as long as you can put apps in folders in the app launcher, as well as hiding some apps altogether. Lawnchair looks interesting and I’ll check it out
I agree that it looks dry in this photo, and that might have something to so with my camera + the lighting. The dosa pictured in reality is not very thin and crispy and is thick enough to make sure none of that sauce goes to waste.
Likewise, I know a lot of people that would for sure appreciate some chutney on the side, and I love making roti with this instead of dosa as well.
I personally don’t have it that way, but you have my word that none of the sauce goes to waste :)
Google cannot see any message content of Signal notifications through FCM. It’s more like a “heads up” to the Signal app, telling it “hey, there are new messsges. wake up and check what they are.”. The Signal app then checks for messages and does all the decrypting and whatnot itself.
While it’s possible that the timing of FCM telling the app to check for notifications could be used to correlate activity, that’s an edge case that if you are concerned about can be easily avoided by just using the background WebSocket or a fork of Signal like Molly that allows you to use a third-party UnifiedPush provider to check for messages in the background, instead of FCM.
I think the main difference is that the Play Store version can use FCM (Google Play Services) for notifications, while the APK Signal distributes only receives notifications over a background WebSocket connection.
