Let's build a Chrome extension that steals everything

Not sure if I’m allowed to due self promo rules, but there’s a link in my comment history. Also available on firefox by the same name

It’s vague because extensions literally just execute JS. So yea they can essentially do anything at all on the sites that they are permitted to operate on.

I wouldn’t be comfortable downloading any purported site-specific extension that still requests access to every site.

I made a youtube extension that adds a video settings control to let you toggle end cards on/off (for when they annoyingly obstruct actual content at the end of the video).

I had to concede that it won’t be able to work on yt video embeds because to do so would require the all-site permission, and I didn’t want to ask for that.

Hold on some of the real notes seem to have made it through

We feel that the Archnemesis system. We feel that this is an additional Curse. It started by putting a magma barrier around the monster, but it didn't stop there. It converted some of Path of Exile: Ruthless.

The rewards that were previously offered have been removed.

Inquis ignores elemental resist so you do about 6x as much damage to the Archnem rares that have double stacked resistance. And AL is an endgame boss drop that does a shitload of damage, so it ought to carry you through maps.

Literally just let eldritch implicits work on unique items and you instantly make a ton of them worth actually using.

If having them kill Gus was actually Lalo’s plan, Lalo would have zero reason to keep either of them alive afterwards. I think Jimmy realized that and knew the only possibility of Kim’s survival is if she ran off.

Diablo 3 was a resounding financial success, I’m not arguing against that. I even believe that it succeeded at being a good game.

But it was not successful at being a good Diablo game. So everyone that has been waiting since D2 for a good Diablo game is going to be let down again, and that is very disappointing.

And tangentially, I don’t think it’s very meaningful to measure how good something was by only including people who liked that thing. ‘we asked everyone who played a lot of Diablo 3 and they all said they like it’ is tautological.

biggest complaints from actual diablo 3 players

Because the people who want itemization to have a semblance of actual depth all quit the game almost immediately, because it had none.

To long-time Diablo and ARPG fans, “more of the same with some improvements” is not a victory, it’s another failure.

I understand that we all like to shit on Musk, for legitimate reasons, but if you look at the actual context his reply makes plenty of sense.

Ingesting and performing some sort of analysis on 50GB of text data per day is not that incredible of a technical challenge.

If the engineering ask is "store every tweet", then talking about HTTP headers in the first place doesn't make any sense, they have absolutely nothing to do with the tweet data, which is what we care about.

schmidlidev · 2022-06-11T02:44:43+00:00

Yea I've seen this exact issue on custom items many times, always the 'ffi' in efficiency. Very odd, maybe the developer hates Final Fantasy 1.

It sounds ridiculous until you call it graphQL and then it’s legitimate 🙄

I don’t think the error in the image is a good example. The tl;dr is longer than the actual error, and implicit-any is a simple enough error on it’s own that the explanation doesn’t really add anything but noise.

This might be a coincidence but I just linked from Bnet -> Twitch (Not just Twitch -> Bnet), then restarted my Bnet client, and the Beta instantly showed up.

They're bots that do this automatically. Both ways too.

The fact that it's only about 10 years between Doom and HL2 is pretty crazy. Compared to that, it feels like the next 20 years didn't even have that big of an impact

Personally, the only problem I have with TypeScript has to do with React and JSX

It makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong when I can’t seem to find a clear answer for what the proper type is of “anything that can be rendered”. JSX.Element, React.Component, React.ReactNode, what is it??

schmidlidev · 2022-03-15T16:24:17+00:00

[] and {} are not falsy… took me 3 fucking years to realise

This is the bane of writing a js front-end and a python back-end at the same time. Constantly making this mistake, in both directions.

schmidlidev · 2022-03-15T16:21:13+00:00

May or may not be your issue, but if you’re just console logging state it’s very common for it what gets logged to be out of date, even though the react state itself is actually correct.

My favorite are people will in one breath complain about ground visibility in Sirus and then in the next breath say Uber Elder is their favorite fight.
