Anyone knows if all Android 10 phones are like that or it's just mine?
Testing. Please wait.
Status: Well that was interesting.
So, apparently the ringer defaults to a system ROM provided one since the internal storage is not unlocked, and the actual "Hey someone's calling you" screen does not actually appear? It is also impossible to answer except maybe if I had connected Bluetooth.
That's.... fucking amazing.

unlock screen once.
more likely it needed the SIM to be unlocked
I don't have SIM PIN. And it asks for the phone passcode anyway. I'm not an idiot, okay?

Managers dream of not needing programmers, but the way computers work requires people who can think precisely and in ways that handle edge cases, so programmers continue to be vital.
That's the fallacy that gave us COBOL and SQL (syntax, not relational algebra). I heard SQL was designed as a language "anyone can use". I sometimes wonder what's going on in the head of people making such claims. Do they really believe that the syntax with braces and semicolons is the biggest barrier to entry? Did they never meet a non-programming programmer?
I know two managers who use SQL to get data they needed. One is a Product Manager, the other one is a Project/Product Manager that eventually went up all the way to C-level.But then again, it's a company where "Head of Software Development" spends significant time configuring Jira so it's not just an obnoxious time waste for the developers, etc.

@Kamil-Podlesak I know many managers with engineering background. I also know some without. I'd never let the latter anywhere near anything queryable.

Also exclude the former. Background writes way shittier queries than immersed, and they write them how they did when last they were immersed.

I think abstraction layers must be in the visual approach so you can zoom in and out as your need require.
In university, one of the courses used Rational Rose RealTime. It was a broken pile of dogshit, but it did have state diagrams with sub-states that could have their own state diagrams nested inside. I don't recall if there was a limit to how nested you could go, but it did make using that tool a bit more tolerable

Something like Minecraft redstone logic? But with

After every reboot, it locks out fingerprint sensor and requires you to use PIN. TIL it also locks out incoming calls until you unlock screen once.
I didn't know about the phone calls, but my tablet does the same thing. To unlock it when turning it on, you have to input your "backup password" before the fingerprint unlock works. If you forget your backup password, you can reset it, which involves scanning your fingerprint

WASM is the answer.

the binary interface.
Is already well-documented as it's just UE4 networking. And, all of the network validation functions are basically
return true;so anyone could just splat a valid UDP packet at the server and it would very likely Just Work.

Adobe Experience Manager
Contrary to appearances, the progress bar here is a looping animation. It's been running for over an hour now and I don't know it's done, or it errored, or if it's stuck, or if it'll be done in 10 seconds, or 5 hours, or 6 days. I don't know what happens if I close the tab or navigate away.
I very much care about the answer to these questions right now, but it's just a Sisyphean loop of the progress bar filling up only to empty itself again. Over and over. Mocking me. Forever.
-
@error reminds me of that one time I had Flash installer progress bar break the 100% barrier and go to 200%, 500%, 10,000%, 5,000,000%, literally 2,147,483,647%, then loop back to - 2,147,483,648%, then go up to -1,000,000,000%, -200,000,000%, -50,000,000%, -2,000,000%, -600,000%, -2,000%, eventually crossing 0% and reaching 100% at which point it finished successfully.
I wish I was recording it. I've had a screenshot but lost it somewhere.

If you use one of the other package install interfaces, if for instance the CRX package interface is still exposed somewhere, you can find out why it broke. It probably broke awhile ago. It will never tell you.
It's a good idea to expect AEM to hate you unless you either work for Adobe or have paid them sufficient training money to receive the decoder rings for all the backwards-ass UI notions.

I've long forgotten the pattern to unlock my phone. I unlock it with the fingerprint reader. I've tried to change to a new pattern before, but it asks for the previous pattern and won't unlock with the fingerprint. I haven't tried resetting the phone because

Fun fact: you can lock yourself out on that screen, even though you're unlocked.

- Programming is simple to me.
- I put hundreds of hours into learning syntax of various languages before I could program efficiently.
- I don't think I'm smarter than an average human.
Ergo
- If we got rid of syntax, then everyone would find programming easy.

@LaoC it means getting rid of textual form of creating programs, i.e. moving to visual programming.

I don't understand why anyone would expect anything else from a thing called
Adobe Experience Manager
Each of its constituent words alone is enough to make me retch, either because of itself ("Adobe") or because of the abuse it has seen at the hands of →managers (the other two). Their combination can hardly be anything less than a lovecraftian horror.

The worse part of this situation is that I can't re-register fingerprints because that too asks for the pattern.
Oh, and a while ago I tried to reset the pattern remotely using Find My Device on the google account. But guess what happened?
Good thing I'm not attached to this phone. But one of these days I should really get off my
and do a factory reset (assuming it won't ask me for the unlock pattern).
