There are special tents for it! This is not one of them though, the coldest it got was around -15°C, so this three-season tent was just fine. The snow is piled to stop the air from going under the fly, so that the air trapped between the fly and the tent itself acts as an insulator.

 

My contribution, winter camping really is fun!

If SQL injection is picking a lock, this is entering through an unlocked door.

Not sophisticated at all, authentication on API routes is way earlier on the security checklist than SQL query sanitisation. This site is amateur work.

You did say that something can peak multiple times, so your original comment sounded like you were implying that Star Wars peaked multiple times, hence the response.

There are upgrades etc in Crysis 2 & 3, but not in Crysis & Crysis Warhead. Those were pretty different, unaffected by the need to run on consoles since they were PC only. The gameplay was way more open too.

It's the look of too much HDR

I think they meant the HTC entry in the article, not literally the HTC One phone.

And the fact that you need to create a wrapper means that some programmers won't bother to do it, or won't know they need to do it. The default case handling timezones correctly will reduce potential errors.

You should look at it, they say the implement RFC 9556 timestamps, which include tz info. In my experience it IS useful in real use, because a fixed offset timestamp can lose a bit of information.

For example, if you have a timestamp and want to add a few months to it, for example for a reminder, you will get a timestamp at the same time in the same offset. In many cases that will be wrong, because of things like daylight savings time, which change the offset of the timezone. You will get a timestamp an hour before or after the moment you intended, and it will be in the "wrong" offset in that timezone in that time of year. With timezone aware timestamps, they are aware that the offset will change, and will be able to give a timestamp in the future at the correct time and offset.

In this section, wouldn't be more realistic for chrono users to use timezone info around the wire instead of on the wire, rather than using Local+FixedOffset?

They do say that the difference is that chrono users would need to keep out-of-band timezone information in addition to the datetime, whereas Jiff does it in-band.
