Earth is just part of the same recycling collection plan, it's fine.

Stars kinda famously fuse elements up to iron as part of normal operations. And even if you exclude that, the entire solar system is leftovers from a previous star - all that is inside our current star too. Sure, much of it isn't at t

My first "player encounter" was with someone who patiently took me through many of the basics for over an hour at the very beginning (like 15 minutes in), then tricked me into attacking them so they could blow me up and get away w

I would love to see this kind of thing as a Gaussian splat image, so the sheen at different angles is captured. It's somewhat important to making it look realistic.

So... it's essentially the same thing that has been on the ISS for three or four years?

You are also guaranteed to be able to retrieve your data, just query for '... is null'. No complicated logic needed!

There's a number of people who effectively use tmux as their window manager - one terminal window doing literally everything. Locally as well as remotely, but it's more... understandable for remote, where other options are often

If I didn't intentionally request non-transactional mail, it is spam. By definition. Mark it as such.

I can definitely believe explicit levels has more actionable errors. Type-shenaniganry without identifiable names can be pretty awful to unravel. On that note though, I haven't found a whole lot of documentation or blog posts around tr

It's far less studied and didn't exist (to any usable degree) at the time it was made. And it's extremely different, organizationally, so it's a difficult migration to pull off. And it has different incentives. And most

Yeah, they are quite uncomfortable. A clear "form before function" decision, and one of many "the wrong people are deciding things" signs :/ I like the idea of fully blending the notch, rather than just rounding sli

> "Read and change data on all websites" does not, to me, imply "make network requests on the user's behalf" Yeah, I don't like this phrasing either, I think it downplays the risk to a dangerous degree (whi

Some proxies, iptables extensions, and OS-provided tools exist - there's almost certainly a combo that would work for them. What platform? Unless it's for a custom physical device, then uh. idk. Probably something, proxying thr

- click install - "It can: Read and change all your data on all websites" It's not alarming sounding enough for what that implies, but "it can trigger requests under its control" seems fairly obvious from that. The

If there's no downside to leaving the ladder in place, then I would think yes - there's a reasonable expectation that people will die due to your actions. You'd likely have to argue about "involuntary manslaughter"

It's fairly easy to test out: https://onlinetonegenerator.com/ Anecdotally, bells have always come through fairly clearly for me. They filter out lower tones, not higher + sine waves. Nothing about this adds up to mo

I've seen more than one half-joke-half-serious chunk of code that would "encode" arbitrary info into stack traces simply by recursively calling `fn_a`, then `fn_s`, `fn_d`, and `fn_f` before continuing with the actual intende

They're kinda like high-effort shitposts. Which are my absolute favorite kind. The worse the effort/reward payoff, and the more it makes you ask "WHY??!!?", the better.

tbh I think that vote would succeed, if one happened right now. his approval poll results are abysmally bad. what do you think the vote would be, though? "we don't like him"? last I checked, change.org-petition-style voting d

wouldn't this be solved by synchronously invalidating everything before computing anything? it seems like that's what the described system is doing tbh, since `setValue` does a depth-first traversal before returning. or is there

similar here, I'm gradually removing more and more things from my phone. at this point it's mostly just a couple actually-important apps, a web browser, and messaging apps (because it's clearly superior to whipping out a lap

afaict it applies to literally everyone. there's a variable "sweet spot" of course, but once you get out to "extremely wide" it's reliably worse for everyone, and there are LOADS of computer monitors that qual

I mean, some, sure. but it's a choice, and not all choose to do that. and I've watched quite a few (of all ages) escape it when they realize how much it's harming their ability to do what they need to do.

yea, this is in javascript. it's inherently single-threaded in almost all contexts (e.g. node.js shared memory where you're intentionally bypassing core semantics for performance, and correctness is entirely on you)

Aside from being a bit small and having to be held close, phones are good proportions for reading. Computers screens have gotten wider and wider, and UIs bigger and bigger, and it eats into reading space pretty heavily. Especially if you do

Nothing about this requires an app. Just an ID. Forcing the app is almost certainly for tracking purposes and justifying the decision for whatever braindead higher-up decided it was a good idea, therefore it must be made to work.

yea, I like the /x/ repos a fair bit. "first-party but unstable" is an extremely useful area to have, and many languages miss it by only having "first-party stable forever" and "third party". you n
