For a CSS design site, this looks fairly bad to my eye. I'm not any kind of UX expert, it just looks clunky: - Lots of text seems slightly offset. It's not all centered within buttons etc. - The text also doesn't seem to quit

We'll only know when that gets tested in court, but I'd be willing to bet the answer will be: yes, you have hacked a bank. I find it very hard to believe the justice system would let someone off on some technicality around intenti

Yes, it is, there's a translation table for xooglers too: https://github.com/jhuangtw/xg2xg The only real difference there (although it is a significant one) is that most of those internal Google tools tended to b

Yes, agreed. And it's not just delays - when the upstream decides that they actively don't want to take a patch that you have a burning need for (and maybe you already have systems in production depending on it), that can accelera

Yeah, they could do a lot more in it with true 3D maps, but the design was all brown. The bosses were boring - the first one is kinda cool, the others not (IIRC episodes 2 and 3 were just kind of standard enemies); all three of Doom's

In the original thread Carmack was replying to, Sandy Petersen said Q3 was the only other great game they produced after that: https://xcancel.com/SandyofCthulhu/status/206959226489744192... Honestly I think Doom

Yeah the "making tax digital" thing sucks, but there are lots of little companies that will do a simple filing for you. I hate the theory, but at least in practice it does work okay.

Yeah. We used to get a bunch for OS things inside containers (the ones that had OSes in there) like "Perl regex has exploitable something-or-other". They always came in at high priority so we had to fix them, but realistically the

It's a typo, he describes it as std::println in the text, but the code snippet is just print()

The hardware requirements to run this locally are still very high. Seems far enough off mainstream for those companies not to be too worried yet.

Given that most of those users will not be capable of patching it directly, no, that seems like it would be irresponsible.

This is kinda fun, but doesn't match most of my experience splitting firewood. The wood barely moves after it's split. If you split it perfectly, the two halves will almost certainly both fall to each side (they're pushed out

Because uv itself can fetch a Python distribution. If it's written in Python, it's quite a bit harder to distribute, assuming one of their goals is not to require an existing Python install.

Yeah, definitely agree with this. I still use Firefox a bit on some machines but it is constantly popping up little things - "are you finding tabs overwhelming? try tab groups" / "try vertical tabs" / whatever.

I find there's an interesting tension with these models - they're very "resourceful" at finding ways to do things with the tools they have, but it'd also be a lot more useful to me if I could see / permit exact

I remember it having saves? I'm not sure if that was an addition to the PC version or if I'm getting it mixed up with the sequel (which definitely did have them, but was also quite a bit harder so it _really_ needed them)

They've been moving it to Azure, presumably partly because they don't want to pay AWS for a thing they could (apparently) do, but more for the appearance of the thing. I think that's financially sensible in the long run, assu

I think you miss my point a bit. It's not about what can be done with those ecosystems in 2026 - you mentioned what was done in the 2000's, and I'm suggesting one reason that wasn't perceived as "cool" is becau

TBF there is an advantage to having a tool like this being a native binary in Rust or Go, which are rather smaller, faster to start up and don't need a runtime like the JVM or .NET. It's also a lot more "web native" than

Unless the child is killed in said active war zone, which was the maximally traumatic outcome they were trying to avoid. Some evacuation was reverted, but there were also later waves; I don't think it was clear that it was overall the

Much more common in Europe, which is partly cultural, and partly because there's not the same single/dual message technical distinction between debit and credit cards, so you don't "need" a credit card in the way yo

And Companies House - still relatively rare though, like one payment of £50 per company per year.

Sure. I prefer that because they charge me less.

Valkey, because our cloud provider is hosting it and that's obviously what they prefer. I feel like we're using about 1% of its features at this point - really just as a fast K/V store - so it would be easy to switch if neede

That's because the sites put that there to claim they had a rule or whatever. If this new limit is being enforced on them with the intention that it is actually effective, there clearly has to be some way of checking it or kids will ju

They didn't say they never wanted to do generics, but that they did want to take their time and do them right. Debatable how much they have been "right", although this gets them somewhat closer. And I think they have not been

This was 100% a predictable outcome after Bun was acquired. Of course they were going to do something like this. What would have been significantly better is just rewriting Claude in a language that's actually well suited to what it&#x

They didn't have to. There's a widely held assumption that Rust == safe, or safer than anything else.
