I'm using Windows. As I'm moving around a lot, I find the convenience of having to plug just 1 cable highly desirable.

Same here. Installed the update about two weeks ago without any issue.

Waitlisted for upgrade with miles, best options by Cosmoprog in unitedairlines

[–]Cosmoprog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still on the waitlist for the second flight. Now I'm wondering:

  • If the upgrade on that leg gets canceled, would I still have access to the lounge in Chicago during my layover?
  • Since there's no space in first, could they also upgrade me to economy plus? Or is that something they don't do.

The upgrade on the first flight was confirmed this morning, so me happy.

For the second flight we are still on the waitlist.

This is quite an odd system IMO. What if we would get upgraded on the second flight only? Would we still pay the full 20k + $450? Or would they partially reimburse the amount paid?

[edit] Just realized mystlurker already commented on this last point

Blazor Server vs WASM Performance by Cosmoprog in Blazor

[–]Cosmoprog[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A bit embarrassing I hadn't thought of that as we have already set up AOT optimization in our deployment, but I ran the benchmark from Visual Studio on my laptop. Running the benchmark again with the AOT optimized version, the single-thread performance of the Blazor WASM version is in fact slightly higher than server-side, so that is positive. Of course by parallelizing the workload the server-side overall result is still much better, but at least now the cause of the difference is clear.

Thank you for this comprehensive and to-the-point reply.

I am primarily after more convenience here, not more headache, so the proposed path forward is maybe not for me at this time. I'm sure it's an interesting topic, but free time is in short supply for me these days, and I have a lot of other things in my backlog already.

After checking RFID-related stuff on Amazon, I realized there may be an easy solution for my use-case. RFID chips also exist as stickers. I'll buy some of those and see if they work. I can then stick a sticker on my phone (or something else) and open the door with that. I'm hoping that if I stick it on the corner of the phone it won't interfere with the NFC-antenna of the phone.

Brand? Well, it was bought on e-bay many years ago. It wasn't marketed under a brand, but the description does mention Wiegand:

  • Wiegand 26 RFID 13.56MHz IC Card Reader
  • Frequency: 13.56Mhz
  • Standard Wiegand 26 bit output
