For the record: you were right. It was the same page and I mistakenly took those images for lottie images. That being said it bothers me that they felt that a 500kB gif is more appropriate here. Perhaps I should just compile my images to gi

I googled the name as I was unfamiliar with it, but immediately recognized the orange logo in search results. Their entire business model seems to be centered around extorting businesses. I stopped giving them money after they inaccurately

That is a huge indictment towards my company laptop. Or perhaps it was a different page. I will have to establish that on Monday.

Plenty of people would want to live life how people lived before 2008 though, or even 2015. Over the past decade life expectancy in developed countries first plateaued, then declined. Yes, largely due to the pandemic, but that plateau was a

Solar actually has over twice the footprint of onshore wind, considering the energy needed to produce the panels, but it's irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, as all those mentioned sources, if they were to form the majority of t

Not OP, but here's one instance over which I already had an internet fistfight with a person swearing by LLMs[0], meaning it should serve as a decent example: > Suppose I'm standing on Earth and suddenly gravity stopped affecti

My impression is that Copilot acts a lot like one of my former coworkers, who struggled with: -Being a parent to a small child and the associated sleep deprivation. -His reluctance to read documentation. -There being a language barrier betw

I grew up in a panel block, now live in a more recent building and my general impression is that while their build quality left much to be desired, I had no complaints about walkability. I could go to school, the clinic, the dentist or post

This would produce interesting results with types defined via `infer` or template literal types. That being said I wish the same.

That much is understood, but how did someone manage to produce such a huge body of text which isn't complete nonsense?

I believe it's short for "(in his written works) X argues...". Past tense would indicate that there was a change in his views at some point.

I've found that people without kids largely can't relate, because they, ahem, don't understand how the parents can be this patient.

I would like to see how the fight scenes in The Beginning After the End could improve from being passed through this tool. In all seriousness I wonder where is this all headed? Are people long term going to be more forgiving of visual art

I also don't think there's a general rule. I use `if`s a markers for special/edge cases and typically return in the last statement in the `if` block. If I have an `else` block and it's large, then it's a clear indic

Research is inconclusive regarding what exactly causes this increase. We know that infants are generally larger than 50 years ago and one of the factors which trigger birth is the inability of the mother's metabolism to support further

Regarding your last paragraph: > DDD is the approach where we focus on OUR PRODUCT and UNDERSTANDING THE BUSINESS. Guess I've been doing DDD all this time. Or: there are people who don't do that?

Death of someone whose potential was largely realized is a very different thing than the death of someone who never got a chance at the same. I would be deeply unhappy to learn that my children won't live to old age. Also witnessing th

Nope. More like commie blocks as far as the eye can see, as it's in eastern EU. I moved out BTW, because I figured that being able to afford at most a 1-bedroom, 55m2 apartment as a software engineer is a deal I'm not willing to t

In my region of the world they enable having any sort of housing at all . Plenty of people don't have the credit score to buy anything livable within city limits, so they resort to buying apartments in the suburbs and small, adjacen

The hypothesis I settled on is that they're cracking down on overwork, so people pulling two jobs in secret. There's also the question of executives having a stake in the commercial real estate that's used for the office, but

I'm not arguing that. But it never occur to me that e.g. being a homeowner should be a prerequisite. My parents weren't and neither most everyone else's in my generation. I was still renting when my first child was born. Also

I don't think it's that and it's more about how conscious a decision it is nowadays. It's not the future - it's the attitude towards it. Teen pregnancies are at an all time low everywhere in the developed world and

Ah, of course, how could I forget the pioneer of this style in tech and his work? I didn't notice that link as I found the Telebugs ad off-putting and closed the tab. I believe he mellowed out since.

I think this style of writing tries to emulate what passed as "cool" in the early 2010s or so. Matthew Inman of "The Oatmeal" is to me a leading representative of it.
