I re-wrote (in Python) the WP1 bot, which compiles information on the importance and quality (Featured Article, A, B, Stub) of Wikipedia articles in Wikipedia projects. It's currently the bot with the most all time edits on English Wik

I think the wording of the article title helps push people to this conclusion. My first thought was "we're 24 years into the 21st century, I'm sure we already have one of those".

If you're looking for alternative search, I have to mention Kagi ( https://kagi.com/ ). Not free, but totally worth it to filter out results like geeksforgeeks, tutorialspoint, w3schools etc.

Stephen F. Roberts used this tagline on the alt.atheism newsgroup: “I contend we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dism

Another annoying thing about the 1976 Copyright Act/Berne Convention is that copyright is automatic. You don't need to register with any organization, any "original work of authorship fixed in a tangible form" is copyrig

A bit tangential, but I'm not sure I could ever play D&D on a VTT. I understand the allure of playing over the internet in general, because you can pick outlandish times and don't have to be geographically collocated. But for

I would suggest keeping a D&D feature set, which is a "common ground" that most people are familiar with, to demo the app. But I agree with the post above, niche system players are going to love this more since they are unders

I don't love the lottery or scratch offs, though I don't mind playing occasionally. But what I can't stand is the self perceived moral superiority of people who are like "haha, lottery is for idiots!"

As someone who has contributed to the Evennia codebase (Hacktober 22), I can say that it's OOP systems are largely well thought out and very flexible. There are hooks for things like when your object gets created/destroyed, picked

Okay, that's a good thing! From the article: > Neither tree-sitter nor Emacs come installed with language grammars > ...it’ll only work if you don’t have an exceptional setup (so it won’t work well unless you have GCC and run som
