and way back when, you could just tell a hard drive to essentially destroy itself

It would be cool, but the thought of maintaining any kind of code with more than 5000 years of legacy scares me deeply

i'm amazed that they still sell/sold 128gb versions that late. I remember deciding never to get a computer with that small a hard drive again a bit less than 10 years ago. it clutters up so fast.

I doubt it, since this is an API, and not a visible difference. Seems that changes like that are mostly targeted at the UI.

the thing that's been driving me crazy lately is that they got rid of the undo history for the search bar. if you submit a search, it resets the undo history to be more specific. I expect by now so few people use the search bar that th

a simple template language is composed in its entirety of like 3 separate pieces of syntax, it should be something you can learn in 5 minutes. Like I said in my original post, the point of it is to limit what you can do, so that templates s

disagree, because the alternative is having a million tiny templates, which is annoying and cumbersome. sometimes you just want a condition to check if a user has an avatar, or if there are replies to a post, or whatever else. same with loo

by asddubs 4y ago
I always thought the point of the template language was more to enforce the boundary of presentation and code. and thus any template language that grows too powerful is a bad template language, because it's no longer doing the one job

not to mention that google still controls the chrome extension marketplace, and will stop accepting mv2 extensions by the end of the year. So not only do you have to maintain the mv2 related code, and keep reintegrating it whenever google m

he didn't sell it, he wanted to stop development and gave it to someone else, who turned out not to be trustworthy, so he made uBlock Origin. uBlock Origin Lite/Minus are a response to googles manifest v3, which will be mandated s

a calculator with a history being superior was my first thought too. there are advantages to this approach too, however. The history is selective, so if you make a mistake/typo, that isn't now permanently in your history as a foot

the point I made in my original post was that a font is already an external resource and doesn't have to be intermingled with the rest of the code.

i guess, i feel that's missing the point of the example, though. Like I could have said open racist (which is not against the law as you imply) instead, i just picked a random example. But you are making the decision that this is somet

it's the paradox of tolerance. a jewish person might be unwilling to work in a place that tolerates an open nazi, and a racist might be unwilling to work with a black person. The point is that you have to make a decision at the end of

Yeah I mean, he's a pedophile rapist, so like, that's a bit worse than being an ex con. I'm not saying he shouldn't be allowed to work anywhere but he doesn't really need to be in a leadership role giving talks at a

Only with inline svgs, not if they're included via <img>, I believe.

by asddubs 4y ago
they do have the advantage of being easy to recolor even as an external resource. I personally don't use them and instead use SVGs and there's always the decision of whether to add a bunch of inline svgs, which you can do cool eff

i'm pretty impressed by how close it is, at least from the screenshots. if you swapped out the logos for discord logos, there's no way I'd notice or even be able to tell you what's different if you told me

youtube is a pit of spam in general. Basically any bigger video, every single comment that's even just somewhat high up either has a respond that says something like "check this out <video link>" or "see here <v

Well, it kind of makes sense if you have e.g. a big youtube channel under and alias and people would know who you are based on that (e.g. Veritasium) but less people would know what your actual name is. However I don't use twitter so I

I think it'll displace a chunk of what artists do. Anything where there don't have to be super precise specifications for the end result, where there's some leeway and you just need something that goes into a general directio

for their operating system (serenityOS) they're not using any dependencies, they have their own windowing framework. for the cross platform version of the browser, they use Qt instead. but on serenity itself the browser does not use it

I guess a precise defition of the line would be something like "no third party code dependencies"
