Google Pixel 8a: Preise und Spezifikationen durchgesickert
Auch 2024 wird es mit dem Pixel 8a ein Mittelklasse-Smartphone von Google geben - ganz so günstig wie in den vorherigen Jahren wird es aber wohl nicht.

Last week, I wrote an analysis of the #ITEF #Idempotency-Key specification. The specification aims to avoid duplicated requests. In short, the idea is for the client to send a unique key along with the request:
* If the server doesn’t know the key, it proceeds as usual and then stores the respons…

You think of waking up at a specific time.
I think of waking up at a specific train station.
We are not the same.

Holy cow, look at this amazing pavilion I found on street view, deep in the Scottish countryside. Fabulous piece of handicraft.

We are becoming increasingly late medieval in how we create 'new' laws for very specific cases. Proposing offences for particular professions isn't new, sumptuary laws date from the Romans at least and maintained class distinctions, who could wear which cloth, who could carry a sword in public; and the Guild laws protecting professions, Solicitors still have those protections.
But a specific law for shop workers against their being attacked? Offences already exist, enforcem…

QRtree - Decision Tree dialect specification of QRscript
This specification document specifies the syntax and semantics of QRtree, which is a specific dialect of QRscript particularly suited to represent decision trees without chance nodes. The term dialect identifies one of the possible sub-languages that can be encoded inside of an eQR code via QRscript. This specification will describe an intermediate representation of QRtree, made through a language derived by the three-address code. It will then define the transformation rules from the intermedi…

QRscript specification
This specification document specifies the syntax and semantics of QRscript. The current document only shows the part related to the QRscript header, i.e., the first part of the binary code that must be inserted into the QR code. A QR code containing an executable code is called an executable QR code (eQR code). QRscript supports different dialects, i.e., sublanguages with implementation characteristics specific to the application field. The specifications of the individual dialects will be desc…
