Consider these two examples involving Flickr, that occurred within just one day of each other. Nice gal Amanda I submitted the following feedback, not really expecting much of it. In fact, I fully expected some useless, boilerplate response that completely ignored the point and directed me to the upload requirements page (despite it being the… Read more
This morning I tested out Apple’s Vision Pro in an Apple Store. And I’ve decided to write about it, mostly for my own future nostalgia, but also because my experience was markedly different to what’s been widely reported in tech news. I had intended to just buy an Apple Vision Pro on release day, but… Read more
RSS This is generally the best option. The feeds provide the full text of each post, so you don’t necessarily even have to leave your RSS reader to read them (although the formatting and general aesthetics are usually better here on my actual website, than in most RSS readers, and posts with interactive elements, such… Read more

The Colonists, in comparison, looked a bit dinky, but I ultimately decided to take a chance, and Iām glad I didā¦ Read more

In my testing the ifa_dstaddr field is never non-null. I’m not sure I have any suitably configured P2P interfaces, but I definitely have interfaces with broadcast capabilities… Read more
Apple “Feedback” #12149675. Some netmasks returned by getifaddrs have family of AF_INET yet a length less than sizeof(sockaddr_in), e.g. 5, 6, 7, or 8. On macOS Ventura 13.3.1, at least. It looks like it’s actually allocating only eight bytes for the ifa_netmask (not the 16 that is the size of sockaddr_in per MacOSX13.3.sdk/usr/include/netinet/in.h), as it… Read more
