Yeah I don't think they've thought that through. YouTube hosts a mountain of educational content, e.g. the Khan Academy. That's now banned in the UK for under 16s.

You don't really though. Sure you can fork it and fix your issue, but then what? Are you going to maintain your fork in perpetuity? Are you going to patch all the software that depends on the code you fixed to use your version instead

Why? Wayland hasn't been smooth sailing by any stretch but it's still time to let X die. Also this is slop.

That can definitely be a problem, and I have definitely written formal specs (for hardware in SVA) where I'm like "I'm just implementing this again". And actually that's a totally valid formal verification task to d

Eh still sounds pretty ridiculous to me. Do you like to use the slowest language in popular use? What if I told you we could make it even slower ?

Sure but that's just because they're making a point about how it isn't as shit as WYSIWYG implies. Really, it is WYSIWYG (even if the output doesn't exactly match the editing experience). It's just good WYSIWYG.

I haven't tried TeXmacs (thanks to the truly abysmal name I assumed it was something to do with Emacs), but I have used LyX and it changed my opinion on WYSIWYG. It isn't a fundamentally flawed idea, it's just that most imple

Rust does not do "nothing" to prevent logic errors. On the contrary, its strong type system makes them much less likely than in C. Also security isn't the only reason to prefer Rust to C. But I do agree ffmpeg would see a muc

In theory they should be, but EVs also tend to be more computerised, proprietary and locked down than ICE cars, so in practice I think it's not as simple as that. For example there was that case of the car that needed an entire new sea

It clearly hasn't, if you've been paying any attention to security. The Unix security model is that all code that a user runs is 100% trusted. That's absurd in today's world.

Browsers tend to not lay out things totally identically in my experience. Especially when it comes to scrollbars. So the bug probably was present on the other browsers but it just happened to not be hit. I'd have to play around with

Yeah pretty crazy capability from the AI but also sad that we're at the point where web developers don't know right click->inspect element, and scrolling overflow properties (one of the most basic and common parts of CSS).

Depends on the change. Certainly most PRs don't need feedback before the PR is ready - the task is too obvious, and there's little to feed back on before there's any code. For bigger changes, of course you need feedback on de
