It might be borderline insane but it might fit a lot of people that are on Twitch. I prefer content creators with a small viewership. They are often more interesting to watch than some creator with thousands of viewers and if you really wan

If it's a game I wonder why you tried TikTok but not Twitch? That would probably need more time involvement than TikTok but most game livestreams are still on Twitch. Although from your description I'm not sure how much of a spect

Using a gun for ending your life is like using a rock to get a bad tooth out. It might work but chances are hight that you might not like the result. There's a reason professional medical assistance is needed. Human bodies are pretty r

Or developing an editor that doesn't fully support a character set that has been used since the 1960s could also be called a failure.

FWIW I just looked it up and ex already had the "list" option which allowed to specify how control characters are displayed. Naturally vi had that as well.

We're talking editing, not displaying. You can't screw up your Makefiles by displaying them.

Other devs make a version 2 that is considered by the dev to be a different product and not subject to the lifetime license of the previous version. IANAL so I don't know how legally sound that is.

How so? That's a day 1 experience for Ruby. Typos and calls for the methods on the wrong objects will always get you a NoMethodError. Anybody past their first Ruby tutorial will be familiar with this exception.

Twitter threads force the author to be more concise and split the thoughts into smaller pieces. And if there are picture to the tweets that makes them even better. It's a very good starting point, getting a summary of the topic, before

That's worse than Ellison? There's more than profitability that makes a good CEO. And Jack at least didn't run Twitter into the ground. FWIW it seemed that Twitter was on a good trajectory when Jack left as CEO.

I understand the reference to Larry Ellison but what did Jack do?

Only if they secede without approval of the UK. The referendum in 2014 was accepted by the government. That's something Madrid won't do. At least not within the foreseeable future.

„Musk bought Twitter. Let that sink in!” As usual, Musk fails to be funny. You’d think he could afford some good gag authors but that probably goes against his ego.

How is it unsubstantiated if the tweet cites its sources? The Brandbrief can also easily be googled. The traditional reporting sucks. This year there was a strike in hospitals in NRW and the traditional media mostly reported about it after
