We do have new particles. The Higgs Boson was observed. Unless you don't count that because it was observed where we predicted it, but then you're just punishing scientists for being right.

Let's say there's two books in front of us. A and B. I have read both you have only read A. I argue that B is better because the plot was more intricate. You argue that A is better because you think the cover of book B is bad.

While undoubtedly useful, I feel like this will further the divide in programming models when dealing with primitive types vs objects in java.

But how does rolling it out US only first help with the fact that Wireguard is buggy. They are already rolling it out slowly via a waiting list. Limiting that to US only doesn't really change how "widely available" it is in

Dynamic languages like lisp are much better suited for jitting. The author acknowledges that most functions do not contain type information of what they return, limiting the amount of optimizations. Jitting is better suited for handling th

So what are you saying then? That there are no moral absolutes? Or just that because people disagree on what is moral business should be allowed to act in interest of profit only?

The takeaway from that story for me is that people will go insane lengths to commit suicide, though means nobody would have even thought of, and law enforcement just removes each mechanism as it's discovered.

UX has been trying to remove scroll bars for ages. They are ugly as fuck but they are also incredibly useful UI feedback. I think UX is missing the grander design challenge of making scrollbars that are both useful _and_ beautiful.

At least polkit is a policy engine that tries to enforce security based upon what you're doing rather than which command you run. Sudo is a broken design IMO, I only ever use it locally to run all root commands so I don't acciden
