First of all, very neat! Text selection doesn't work. I guess it's rendered to canvas... but would there be any way to make this work?

But at least the brightness setting should be easy to reach then (preferably analog dial). In my current monitor, the only way to adjust it requires multiple tiny 4 way joystick button presses to reach the correct space in the menu. No dire

This could really use some examples. So the main gist is: "a collection of sets whose pairwise intersection is constant." So 100 sets that all have different elements would be a sunflower since their intersection is constant (empt

I've been out of the loop due to using Linux the last 20 years, but back when I was using Windows XP, the default mail client was also called Outlook (well, Outlook Express). So apparently I missed some time period where it was called

I like this approach (especially because it supports AVX-512), however even not counting the Zen 4c, AMD 3D v-cache CPU's have cores that are sufficiently heterogeneous (those with and without 3D cache) that some special scheduling is

Whether it's unexpected or not depends on the user, you could as well say ctrl+v pasting in windows is unexpected if you don't know this shortcut. Middle click paste in linux is a standard feature this OS has always had

I love middle click paste, in combination with ctrl+c/ctrl+v paste it's a second clipboard, which allows to do one kind of refactoring in between doing some other refactoring in code (as just one example). I didn't know wayla

And the reason subnormals exist at all is that normally there's an implicit 1-bit (without the implicit 1-bit, there would be multiple representations of the same value, e.g. all values with mantissa 0 would represent 0 regardless of e

But there's no such law in European countries, yet radio/TV is not a continuous swear-fest. Bleeps don't exist (except when on purpose making it look like the US, or imported). I'm sure there are some guidelines here too

A 9 second delay for a radio channel? So they can't do some interactive things like phone calls without a 9s delay anymore either? It really seems modern tech doesn't care about delay at all, while personally I do care about it. M
