Auto correct and auto suggest are related but different things. Suggest puts up options for the next word.

I haven’t hit my sixties yet, but it won’t be long now. Youth is ignorance, and the only cure is getting older. When that happens you will marvel at how much you thought you knew and understood. You will listen or read the next generation m

I just tell people that I get distracted by facial expressions and I look down or away to really focus on what they are saying.

As I said, you paid per minute long distance charges to call another area code. A 555 number would not be long distance. Therefore they charged up front.

Wouldn’t the expected number of correct answers for random guesses of rolling dice a number of times be (1/sides)*rolls?

The point is you don’t have to dial an area code with the 555. 555-abcd, sans area code, would just work and route to you no matter where (in the USA) a caller was calling from. Therefore it is equivalent to having that number in every ar

Well, the article presents a seemingly nice workflow that lets you handle local rebases. I was considering it. However, we use vscode, and I rather like auto fetch. But apparently this workflow would destroy something auto fetched that I m

Oof, thanks for that warning. So it will blow away changes you haven’t merged (only fetched)? I guess git can’t tell the he difference between “not merged yet” and “don’t want to merge, please destroy”

Damn, 40 per kWh electricity. My last energy bill (including taxes and fees) is showing $0.124 per kWh electricity, and $0.62 per cubic meter of gas.

You can make lists of people you want to follow and only see their tweets. I'd never use twitter if it weren't for this option. https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-lists

No kidding, almost 30 years later and windows still finds a way to make my work computer run like crap. Looking at a flame graph 60 levels deep demonstrates the problem pretty well I think.

Just to add a little more context, copy-2-plus could circumvent copy protection.

This the kind of thing I wouldn't buy at amazon. It's small, expensive and mechanically simple. A good recipe for counterfeiting.

Sounds about right. But it’s still a critical failure for a fault of any kind to ever display incorrect information to the pilot.

I read it as 6950 too. Maybe spell out 6 or use something as a separator (- or x or *) maybe.

Your point still stands but the noise here is effectively a higher frequency modulation of the base AC oscillation. In other words, the base oscillation of 50 or 60 Hz is not stable, but instead varies a little above and a little below at

Definitely not. Switching required a specialist to come out and change hardware.

It used to be that you got a bundle with a ton of channels but only a few played shows worth watching. Now, you can pay for individual channels, but each one has only 1 show worth watching. Anytime a new show becomes popular, it gets its ow

That doesn’t strike me as irrational at all.
