You misread. 35 and 285 are far from the same ballpark, and it's not really possible to explain that with any corpus. It's much more likely that the author found a list of jōyō kanji sorted some other way, and thought it was sorte

Yes, this. The high-end M1 iMac shipped with a cooling system more powerful than the M1 can possibly benefit from, and everyone was sure a new MacBook Pro was coming by WWDC. The chip shortage seems like the most likely explanation for both

The best way to handle all these issues is to use the median rather than the mean. If most people have no Ferraris, then the median person has no Ferrari. If most people can't afford gigabit, then the median person has no gigabit inter

`--force-with-lease` would fix this problem (it needs an alias). Also, `--force` wouldn't cause a merge commit; it would overwrite the remote changes. The only theory that makes sense is that this person doesn't know how to `pull

The problem is that it's a matter of degree. Like another comment mentioned, having some wine every few months isn't being an alcoholic. Being distracted sometimes is completely normal, being distracted too much is a disorder. So

I mean, you don't have to be uncharitable, the UI can be lightweight, responsive, and fast, but they're most likely talking about the usability aspects. The "huge row of inscrutable icons" school of design fell out of fa

Oh, yeah, I agree it's bad UX. I just wanted to explain what you as a user can do about it.

You're misinterpreting the problem. Auto-removal of trailing space is only possible if the trailing space is meaningless. Many programming languages have meaningful trailing spaces which cannot be removed. The most common example is in

I needed a way to embed arbitrary strings in URLs, as readably as possible. I thought "hey, isn't that what Punycode does?" It turns out, no: Punycode only works for embedding non-ASCII text in URLs, it does not turn ASCII in

You would because you're comparing it to a "Hello world" command-line program in another language which also doesn't have CSS, web workers, etc.

I'm confused by how hostile Zed thinks Drew is being here. He quotes a post from Drew thanking Brandon for his remarks, and spends the rest of the essay saying the thanking is an uncalled-for "level of retribution", "eff

I mean, with the fourth one, each pixel is only approximately square when white. A red, blue, or green pixel would be very rectangular. That's what I mean. Because of the way subpixels combine into pixels, only some colors can be squar

I think your phrase "with subpixels" directly contradicts "exceedingly crisp squares". I'm actually somewhat curious what you think a subpixel is, if you think it can combine into an exceedingly crisp square. For in

Yeah, this seems like one of those "correlation is not causation" situations. If you noticed that languages many people loved were correlated to languages that were used for new projects, it seems crazy to eliminate "loved la

JavaScript can eliminate all repetition thanks to how its || operator works: for (let i = 1; i <= 100; i++) { console.log( (i % 3 == 0 ? "Fizz" : "") + (i % 5 == 0 ? "Buzz" : ""

Journalists may not literally think they're going to write a hit piece, and they may try their best to be unbiased, but that does not make them fully unbiased, either. And it's hard to think there's not some bias going on in

I think the big difference is that Homebrew, unlike Facebook, is open-source (and doesn't have a huge trove of data to protect, leading them to go after third-party clients). It's plausible that you could just write a front-end th

They do support copy and move, which I think is clearer that the file doesn't get deleted if you don't "paste" it (and safer than if it did). It's probably annoying to learn a new paradigm, but you could make the ar

The first one isn't criticizing the lack of ability to set default pull behavior, it's criticizing that if you try to set an alias overriding a built-in command, it fails silently, instead of giving any indication that your alias
