Chose Vue3 on whim for a weekend project last week. I was well into the first couple pages until I realized that some of the documentation seemed to have a completely different approach. Then I realized the difference between the Options AP

It was pretty obvious when Stadia "made" devs port to Linux. When the economic incentive was there, the technology wasn't much of an issue.

I don't know, looking at the example questions the usefulness of some of them still seems limited. Calculating fractional number division without a calculator for non STEM teachers is not a very relevant skill in my opinion.

I'm too lazy to read the court document. Did non-math teachers have to pass the proficiency test? If not, did the math proficiency test contain material irrelevant to material the math teachers were expected to teach?

Win 10 since the first insider builds was a terrible experience on mechanical HDDs. Maybe it's their devs not having HDDs anymore. Who knows. I'm pretty sure it's not the volume of data being read/written. Just a lot of

"As deaths due to covid increased, the percentage of deaths due to car crashes has decreased" I somehow think that doesn't mean we made any progress in car/traffic safety. And should not be used as an argument to dismiss

I think there was a Ben Eater video debunking the "PS/2 is faster than USB" myth. That used to be true, but the PS/2 is so much slower (lower frequency) that by the time a package containing the mouse or keyboard info is

USD, glTF and COLLADA are all "widely used" in some parts. I would like to see some data that USD is more popular than the other ones.

I too get offended when salient information to the story is part of the headline. I never want to read "Motorist kills 2 pedestrians", or "Policeofficer accused of planting evidence". It has to be "Person killed 2 o

The issue is not really the base concept. It's layering a huge amount of concepts on top of it. Just think of the "places" a change can be in (technically most of these are just labels on the tree, but they have separate comm

Labor laws would still be sort of OK for a high-tech factory like TSMC. But I think environmental policy would be really hostile to a large fab. Politics seems really fickle about it too. For "old school" industries like coal they

Neat. From the features it looked like it could've finally replaced wxMedit as my general purpose editor. But alas there's a couple of things not quite working for me. * re-interpreting a files encoding as UTF-16/UTF-8 doesn&

> Uh... you know that "idiot" was originally a medical term which would have had a pretty clear definition right along the lines of "anybody below X IQ" Yes, I do know that. That's not what people mean when they

Who would argue what does and doesn't qualify for a random pejorative? That's like arguing "which exact IQ value (with 2 decimal places) does somebody need to categorically exclude the term 'idiot'". It's

lol the OP saying "I was just curious" about "these scumbags" is about as honest as the "this totally was not a threat" from the MuseScore guy. Why be so tone-deaf or intellectually dishonest.

* linking the dutch language version of the extension page * just calling the extension "VSCode" and using the official logo (are not both of those against the terms of service?) What even is this?

They're making a point of being fiscally conservative. They're advocating for more surveillance and "tough on crime" policies. Mentioning this weird media-hyped "crime family problem". They're against more

It really seems to be the only way. People who try to be compassionate with false accusations never get rewarded. I've only ever seen people recover from both false and true allegations by outright denial. Not attacking the accusers bu

I almost pity Intel for having to maintain old x86 memory model decisions they made over 35 years ago. They tried to get rid of strictly ordering almost all load/stores with Itanium, but they bungled that product so hard. Now switching

you don't actually need to hit the boxes, you just need to point into the direction. So, right click, drag, release. That's enough to trigger one of the options. Over- or undershooting are not an issue. You also don't need to

Next you're going to tell me all the mobile free-to-play games are clearly the best games ever because they're "popular". Popularity and quality have a very tentative relationship at the best of times. When differences i

a spec precise enough to describe an "app" is a program. A person who creates such a spec is a programmer.

At least you had a back-catalog. The amount of games you can play on Stadia is just what you see. I bought a PS5 last year and have not bought a PS5 game. Mostly played PS4 games and some of what came in PSPlus.

I'm never going to get tired of posting it this codec call from the end of MGS2: "In the current, digitized world, trivial information is accumulating every second, preserved in all its triteness. Never fading, always accessible.
