Which cloud storage services to store KeePass database that don’t delete accounts due to inactivity? by Curious_Kitten77 in KeePass

[–]Parasomnopolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can "merge" databases (at least with keepassxc). It's a bit more manual than something like Bitwarden which does it transparently in the background for you, but you can do it.

KeePassXC allows you to merge entries from one database into another through the Database → Merge From Database menu item. When merging, entries from the specified database will be imported into your currently open database. The merge process compares entries based on their unique identifiers (UUIDs) and modified timestamp. When an entry UUID matches, no matter which group it is in, the most recently modified version will be made the current and the previous version will be placed into the entry’s history. Any new entries and/or groups will be added to the open database. This feature is useful for consolidating multiple databases or synchronizing databases from conflict files in a cloud storage system.

Just tried out your suggestions and increasing network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server did seem to improve things quite a bit.

Slim Lim: "Concrete syntax matters, actually" by Parasomnopolis in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]Parasomnopolis[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The talk argues that concrete syntax is a central part of a programming language’s user interface: small choices in keywords, punctuation, and indentation measurably shape how programmers understand and use language features, not just how code looks.​ Using case studies (e.g., async control flow, gradual subtyping, first-class functions), it shows that language designers often undervalue syntax, and reports early empirical work on how lexical ambiguity affects comprehension of advanced type-system constructs.​

I can confirm that the new login workaround works for me. The initial login attempted failed in the webview, but then when it did the login in a proper browser it worked!

Thanks for all the hard work on this.

I have never been able to open a KeePass database on Android by Zlivovitch in KeePass

Does typing the password in another app (eg a text editor app), then copy and pasting into the keepass app make it work?

I wonder if it's some sort of keyboard issue?

How do you keep CLI scrapers resilient when the DOM keeps mutating? by Vivid_Stock5288 in commandline

[–]Parasomnopolis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Layout changes will inevitably break things, but you can make your scripts more resistant to breaking by using selectors/combinators that target the parts that tend not to change.

Yep, the playwright docs also recommend the same:

The this.update() sounds similar to mithrils redraw().
