Yes, that is absolutely correct.

I do in fact use unrefined, brown cane sugar, although I have not tried panela specifically.
The one I use pretty much looks like this:
It’s an organic fair trade brand, but I’d have to look up where it is imported from.
As I said, I can’t imagine making it with any other kind of sugar any more. Sorghum seems like an interesting idea, might have to experiment with that.
The key to amazing banana bread is to make it with soft, brown sugar. The stuff that is clumpy, glistening with moisture, reminiscent of molasses. It adds so much to the flavor. And actual nuts, of course.
mirabilos? That’s a name I haven’t heard in 20 years.
21·3 months agoIt’s not like Bluetooth started demanding location permissions, the conceptual model of the permission was revised: having access Bluetooth means an app could determine your location via a form of lateration.
In earlier versions of smartphone operating systems, this was not transparent to users lacking the technical background, so Bluetooth also requiring location access is actually an attempt at making users aware of that. I’m not an iOS developer, so I can’t comment on iPhones, but on Android versions prior to 11, having access to Bluetooth meant an app would be able to determine your location.
Today, you can require the permission
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, which expresses that your app might use Bluetooth to obtain location information on Android. Also, if you’re just scanning for nearby devices to connect your app to, but don’t want users to be confused why your smart fridge app needs to know your precise location, you can declare a permission flag (neverForLocation) and Android will strip beacon information from the scan results, better asserting your intentions.So, overall: no, there is nothing nefarious going on, it was always possible to determine your location via Bluetooth, and the update to the permission model was an honest improvement that actually benefits you as user.
Now, there are still plenty of shady apps around, and apps that are poorly written - don’t use those.
What’s a good way to financially support artists directly, without involving shady corporations, and without resorting to piracy?
5·4 months agoThis, however, is about diagnostics, i. e. annotating delete with a reason (message) to express developer intent when deleting a function, not about memory management.
Deezer also doesn’t host JRE and they didn’t provide a platform for literal nazis, so advantages all around.

If all else fails, entangle him with silk and consume him.
60·5 months agoYou mean the company that had a feature in place that allowed law enforcement to request and access video footage from your devices without obtaining a warrant first?
As expected, their security measures were also found to be lacking.
Yeah, no thanks.
NewPipe stops working whenever Google updates YouTube with a breaking change that NewPipe needs to integrate then, e. g. renaming parameters, changing URLs and the like.
NewPipe has been steadily working for years, with the expected interrupts as they have to play catch up with YouTube. That typically only lasts a few days, sometimes hours, though.
With type annotations, this problem is mostly alleviated in practice, while still keeping the productivity gains of duck typing.
I share all those opinions, so your rant saved me some potential typing in the future.
On the 8 Pro, the bump is recessed relative to the Otterbox case (given the “tough” Otterbox model for the 8 Pro, no idea what it’s called)
Do you use the phone without a protective case? I find that most cases are designed so that the bump is flush with the back of the case.
That being said, I prefer thicker cases like the Otterbox oder Spigen Tough whatever series, so I could see how such a case would be “too much” for someone.
21·5 months agoThat is way too much, organic or not. I’m aware grocery pricing has gone up, but 100 bucks is a total ripoff.
Based on this comment*, I’ll migrate a large project to bazel now. I’ll report how it goes.
- disclaimer: the comment just pushed me over the edge
Just for reference: the nail polish is supposed to create a random, near-impossible to replicate pattern using the metal flakes inside that get randomly distributed during application. You’re supposed to take a picture of the blob after it has dried and keep that at home for comparison - the nail polish is not a miracle replacement for e. g. Loctite that will make it impossible to undo the screws.
