tired: POSIX compliant
wired: Docker compliant
@shac @colinburgess @Gte right at some point reality has got to set in once you realize that like Bash and Python and Ruby and awk and grep and find and etc are super useful.
@schwa great, now someone on the Xcode team is going to write a blog post with a proof that making apps from SPM is NP-Hard
@shac @colinburgess @Gte I feel like the move is usually to speed run to BSD compatibility. Is that not the case with Fuchsia? I can’t imagine writing everything in user space from scratch

If I was Target, I would drop those prepaid gift cards like a bad habit until they figure out a mechanism whereby information gets added only at payment / activation time.

@layoutSubviews the reason I know they steamed open the card is because they physically scratched off most of the details, making fraud reporting harder.
@layoutSubviews no idea if the thieves could even cash it out. I’m assuming these sort of birthday card gift card scams just try to hit the window between when the card was activated (within an hour of payment) and when the birthday kid actually uses it.
@layoutSubviews worse: someone apparently steamed open the paper packaging, stole the card details and then glued it back together. I gave the card to my kid to use at a San Jose Earthquakes game to buy himself food, and it wouldn’t even scan so they demagnetized it as well. Basically those gift Visa cards should be considered compromised.
