Site does not load on Firefox console error says 'Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: can't access property "wasm", sqlite3 is null'
Guess its common knowledge that SharedArrayBuffer (SQLite wasm) does not work with FF due to Cross-Origin Attacks (i just found out ;).
Once the initial chunk of data loads the rest load almost instantly on Chrome. Can you please fix the GitHub link (current 404) would like to peak at the code. Thank you!
Strange now the first few days load (getting a new error) 'Ignoring inability to install OPFS sqlite3_vfs: Cannot install OPFS: Missing SharedArrayBuffer and/or Atomics. The server must emit the COOP/COEP response headers to enable those. See https://sqlite.org/wasm/doc/trunk/persistence.md#coop-coep'
But when go back to the 26th none of the shards will load, error out.
Using Windows 11, FF 146.0.1
Since you tested it seems its just a me problem and thanks for fixing the GitHub link
No I've seen that error too, on Safari. I think it's related to the wasm being sent with wrong headers. CF pages _headers file should be ensuring correctness. Can you try busting your cache (or wait for a new Dec 29 Data dump version coming in a couple minutes), or from incognito to see if that fixes the issue? It's possible an earlier version had stale headers or sth. Idk.
First off sorry to hear about your daughter's situation and how it seems to be affecting every aspect of your family life. Without telling my life story, a lot of us were in a similar situation in the early 2000’s (Graduated in 2000 and laid off from my intern job in 2001, where I worked for 3 years). As others have said luck and who you know are 50%, right place / right time are another 50% (75% luck IDK). Programming jobs are not going away (think legacy systems / retirements). Will all new jobs be the same as the old jobs, probably not. It might be 5 – 10 years before many new grads find great jobs (to answer your question on how long it lasts). They should, however, be able to find ‘jobs’ (today). Will these be the high pay WFH? Probably not. My advice would be this:
Start an LLC in your state. Normally a couple hundred dollars and some paperwork.
Create a bank account for the LLC and put a couple hundred dollars in the account.
Contribute to Open Source or make an open-source project
Make ‘free’ software for yourself, friends and family – something is better than nothing – show and tell
Make ‘free as in beer’ software for local business or non-profits
Get a job at a local mom and pop outfit, do the job you are hired to do, but also become the ‘IT’ person. Install software / hardware, do backups, make helpful ‘apps’, automate and innovate
All of these will count towards experience when you do get a ‘real’ job, increasing pay range and giving ‘experience’ with ‘x’ technology.
Host on a cheap VPS to learn about Linux / system admin, install something like Dokploy (PaaS), configure Traefik (Reverse Proxy / Load Balancing / HTTPS / DNS), then build your own SaaS apps. Full Stack?
CERTS – GCP ACE, CISSP, Azure AI, ChatGPT, etc....
With the help of a good LLM there is no better time to build something when you really have nothing to lose and no family to support, no house payment, etc...
Do this for 5 – 10 years as projects under the LLC umbrella. Most start-ups do not make money; it's ok to show a loss. On the resume you focus on the tech portion leaving out the parts you do not want to focus on. Who knows, maybe one of these projects even makes a few hundred a month's side money. The best time to find a job is when you have a job (any job). Sitting around looking for a ‘great’ job is going to leave gaps in your resume. Any job can teach you about problem solving, working with others (conflict and how did you resolve the conflict), leadership, in the end a programmer is hired to help make the business money learning how businesses work in general will lead to new insights that a fresh grad (most likely) does not have. There are lots of smaller software shops no one has ever heard of that are also entry level options for new grads. It's ok to live at home making less money and saving it, sometimes we need to lower our expectations on what we are worth money wise. It's not easy out there right now, and I will not pretend that it is. For some (like me), it never was easy, but you need to keep up on the latest tech and have something to show / talk about.
Everyone knows someone who went to school for ‘x’ who is the local bartender or barista. If the new grads decide money now is more important than gaining ‘tech’ experience any way they can then they may never get that job in the ‘x’ degree. Tech includes everything from hardware to software, with more jobs being ‘full stack’ the more you know about the better.
Hoping you and your family the best. There is still time to celebrate Christmas even if dinner is Chinese food and the only gifts are each other.
Great work building something and having the courage to show HN ;-)
Interesting design. Even though I read the instructions still could not get it to work for 30 or so seconds. Might want to show some text 'Now Scroll' with up/down arrows to the left or right of the list.
Seems ok when the list is in the middle of the page and you already have room to scroll up and down, but how is it going to work when the list is at the top or bottom of the page?
Or when the page is so short it does not scroll at all? I suppose you could have the container scroll but then it needs to be considerable larger than the list.
Honestly when you click 'Pick' all of the others should say 'Place' would be more intuitive and give the user options to support both.
As they use it they will pick up they can scroll if they want.
Only had a minute to install, build and use the app; but wow this is great! Thank you for building and showing us Wirebrowser. Are you building this because other tools do not meet your needs? I have not run across any tool(s) that combine all of these features into one package so hoping you all success with this release.
Thanks! Yes - the motivation came from repeatedly switching between DevTools, Burp, and ad-hoc scripts whenever I needed to understand how an object ended up in the heap.
Wirebrowser started as an experiment to unify those workflows and make it possible to follow those values directly instead of stitching together multiple tools. It grew from the pain points I kept running into.
Scrolled for like a minute in both Chrome and FF nothing happened except my finger got really tired. The numbers moved but all I see is a picture of a young child. Not sure what is supposed to happen.....
I agree it needs more images. On desktop there is space to show some encouraging text changes as you go. The unfathomable amount of scrolling required is sort of the point.
Just installed on both pop_os and windows 11. On Linux everything seems to work ok. On Windows 11 the mouse only moves to the start of a line, cannot select text at all click anywhere but the very first part of a line. Every now and then it will select some random word on the line but mostly just column 1. Installed with Cargo if that matters using rustc 1.91.1, looks like 1.88.0 is min supported. On pop the mouse works as expected. Will check it out more when I get time just wanted to give you the heads up.
If you use WSL in Windows it works fine (or so I've heard). Getting it to work properly on native Windows is a gap. I tried various quick fixes like using a different backend but they didn't help much.
Thanks for the link. Its always helpful to have new ways to describe tech dept. The term is too overloaded and most people roll their eyes when hearing it since it can be used to describe anything from real issues to things that are fine but you just do not like for whatever reason. Look forward to reading the section on what issues are worth paying down and those that are fine to live with. Its not any easy decision to make, but having concrete examples is always a bonus. For .99 cents pre-ordered a copy and if there is going to be a real book would love to have it sitting on my desk. It could sit next to Software Estimation by Steve McConnell ;) Cheers!
There will be a print book about a month after the Kindle version launches. It takes time to get the formatted properly (using a contractor). It will be offered for the Amazon minimum price to start -- if you want a notification, sign up on my site: https://loufranco.com/tech-debt-book.
If nothing else would assume they have used GitHub or say 'drop it in teams'. Even if they have only ever used the cloud there is send a link from my Google or One Drive. My first answer would be FTP or rsync. Maybe they are over thinking it and assume they need to get it on another machine without the owner knowing about it IDK. Maybe it needs to be reworded. Or follow up if there is no answer and say how did you turn in your homework to the professors or think about how you collaborate with other developers on a project.
Do not quote me either but you are correct. Prairies depend on fire as do most native forests. Many trees are dependent on fire for their off-spring to succeed (Jack Pine, Red/White Pine, Bur/Northern/Pin Oak) and to kill off invasive species (prairies). Prescribed burns are critical in maintaining these eco-systems and are an under utilized resource. They require 'perfect' conditions (temp, humidity, timing, human resources), so are rarely done correctly if done at all. Source wildland firefighter in another life.
