      "Made for kids" YT is a terrible idea, cannot even add to favourites. Triggers each time when I see such video

    If this is new to you, make sure you watch the whole presentation!

Ah isotropic.org, once the home of the best ever online version of Dominion. The mobile version is now good enough, but it took nearly a decade and multiple development teams to catch up to what one developer did in his spare time.

  But the new ones are prettier. Actually I just wnat the card information and text as per isotropic plus the statistics generated e.g. how good or bad were you if a particular card was in the kingdom.

    Isotropic was so fast and minimalist, the new mobile app, if you have it on a brand new phone, runs at decent speed, but it is still slower than isotropic was 10 years ago on a Nexus 5x. (I was actually shocked the mobile app is so poorly optimized that I needed a new phone to run it at full speed...) Amazing site, even if it was only targeted at the true enthusiasts!

I bet that PDF compresses nicely.

  I was surprised that the 52 KB PDF compressed to only 45 KB on my machine. There seems to be about 13 KB of text; perhaps the rest is the illustrations?

Well, that was hilarious. Thank you for starting my day with a chuckle.

Came here to say this hahahaha. This is the dummy PDF I use for PDF testing whenever I need one.

I did use that PDF for testing at my previous workplace, although I didn't commit it to CI.

Man, I might sneak a reference to that paper in my next technical report.
underdeserver 4y ago
I imagine the word frequencies in that paper are somewhat less than respresentative.

Oh, I was expecting https://sebastiancarlos.com/how-i-quit-my-programmer-job-to-become-a-chicken-b733c20680b1 https://sebastiancarlos.com/how-i-quit-my-programmer-job-to-... in PDF form. But it's a different document. I like bwok quook more.
