I thought so, but I installed Sleep Aid, and when I disable "Wake for Maintenance", Sleep Aid gives me a stern warning:

> Disabling "Wake for Maintenance" can lead to this Mac waking every few seconds. Please select "Disable Wi-Fi" to help with this

So it seems like actually Enabling this setting somehow prevents the Macbook from waking up every few seconds... presumably due to Wi-Fi? Enabling it seems like the recommendation by Sleep Aid anyway

Seems like wider outage of Google Cloud Run services, can anyone confirm?

mdibaiee | 2 years ago | on: Google is already pushing WEI into Chromium

For people who want to put something like this, here is the code snippet:

  <span id='browser' class='hidden'>
    This website is designed for <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://firefox.com/">Firefox</a>, a web browser that respects your privacy.
  </span>

  <script>
    if (window.chrome) {
      document.getElementById('browser').className = '';
    }
  </script>
Class .hidden must hide the element somehow, in this case I do:

  .hidden { display: none; }

Hello! I'm a software engineer with 8 years experience, focused on backend development and infrastructure at the moment, but I have front-end and full-stack experience as well, and I'm happy to be an all-arounder for freelance projects!

Technologies: Rust, Go, Kotlin, Scala, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, React, Kubernetes, Docker, Linux, DevOps, GitLab, GitHub, Jenkins, Elasticsearch, Linkerd, Istio, Terraform, Helm, Supabase, Postgres, Ruby on Rails, etc.

I'm flexible with timezones, and I try to be a good async communicator: I do my best to reply early and keep people in the loop. I have been working remotely for the past 6 years.

Let's chat about your project!

We are not asking for foreign countries to "replace the Ayatollahs" for us. What we are asking, is ending their diplomatic relations with this government, or at least severing it, instead of trying to strengthen their diplomatic relations.

A deal between this dictatorship and the west will only strengthen them, leading to more oppression. A weakened dictatorship due to foreign pressure will make it easier for the people of Iran to replace them.

For me the reasoning is being able to distinguish between what needs to be wrapped, and what I would prefer not to be wrapped. In this case, code samples would preferrably not be wrapped. If I can wrap normal text manually, and keep code samples unwrapped, the client can disable wrapping entirely and see the code lines untouched.

This is possible with HTML and CSS, but not in plaintext. I think wasted space is something I can handle, but a badly wrapped code is something I dislike.

the code highlighting is really cool, well done! pretty sure it's possible to do something like that with jekyll by updating the `highlight` liquid tag to be able to render ascii highlighting in case of raw pages.

ah! that one includes a JavaScript I used to draw a canvas in the post body, hence the script showing up in the curl result. Might try to think of a solution for that.

Edit: fixed it by moving the script to its own file.

LastPass is the worst piece of software I have ever worked with. We had a lot of trouble making sense out of its sluggish user interface and confusing terminology and more.

BitWarden is my choice, it's cheaper than alternatives, the UI is simple and easy to understand. It's open-source and battle-tested. You may want to self-host as well.
