I’d like to reply to badconvincer, but my vouching for his dead comment isn’t reviving it. Anyway, what I want to say is this: Growing up in the 90s, witnessing 9/11 and the ensuing cultural “snap back,” I think both of you are right.

I’m sorry you were downvoted. I’ve tried to replace Google with both DDG and Bing. Both of their results are frankly terrible compared to Google’s. Google’s transition to its current hybrid Ask-Jeeves-style question/traditional query s

Maybe you should write a truth table/source code macro!

The US kind of/sort of has a similar thing with extended zip codes. From what I understand, the postal service usually assigns an extended zip code for each building they deliver to. If you’re at a single family residence, then it’s eq

I wouldn’t mind living in FiDi if it were in a brand new loft/studio apartment at an affordable price. All my SF life I’ve tried to stay in the real residential neighborhoods, the ones tourists don’t know exist. Would be nice to change

The feature’s called alternates. You can use it on-the-fly without modifying any repos by using the GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES environment variable. If you want the effect permanently, there’s the .git/objects/info/alte

I kind of had a similar reaction watching Devs after having read that short story many years ago. But now that I’ve re-read the short story, I have to say, it’s pretty weak compared to Devs. I’m not sure this is the right forum to discuss s

This isn’t simply because of how Git works. You can configure Git to look in multiple places for repo objects. For whatever reason, the GitHub devs either didn’t know this, or they didn’t want to implement their forking and pull request sys

Just to add to the anecdata, I taught myself guitar by copying what I heard on the radio. I was ten years old at the time.

Propofol is definitely used as one of probably a cocktail of drugs required for various levels of sedation (AKA “general anesthesia” in this case). I’ve experienced the exact same pain you’re talking about but with IV antibiotics. No nurse

Use the Data Center offering? It wouldn’t surprise me if they eventually offer some kind of “segregated clouds”-type functionality.

I don’t know what the products are like today, but you’re right that they’ve historically been two separate products with totally different implementations.

It’s surprising to me how many commenters on this post didn’t even read the announcement. When you see that their Data Center offering isn’t going anywhere, it doesn’t seem dire at all.

No. :) I’ll leave it up to you to guess, but I’d rather not advertise it publicly here.

I’m guessing they’re either referring to the unbelievably gigantic number of threads making it impossible to find the important and notable ones, or they’re referring to the fact that significant forums on the site have been closed down and

What’s the deal with the Git repo not including any source code? Is this a common way to use GitHub these days, as a download server for closed source projects?

I don’t understand what statistics have to do with this. It might be possible that the quarantine and economic hardships are a factor at play, but the ultimate causative factor is that non-white Americans are tired of both the veiled and ba

No one is ignoring that. You’re upset with something that isn’t happening.

The people demonstrating aren’t the same as the people looting. Do you truly believe they are?

The issue is that there’s a large population suffering under fear and injustice for over a century now. Maybe you’re just now noticing the pleas for it to stop.

If you really believe this you are truly ignorant beyond all measure of what it’s like to not be white in this country. It isn’t just police brutality. It’s the constant mistrust, passive aggressive behavior, assumptions that you’re poor, d

Microservices can be useful in medium/large companies where you have many teams of devs and it becomes cumbersome to have them all work on one monolith. As long as there's good communication and understanding of needs between team

I don’t think it’s reasonable to stockpile given the huge demand for them by medical professionals. I also can’t imagine a situation where you can order and wait for a shield but don’t have the time or resources to get a surgical mask or cl

I think goggles and shields might serve slightly different purposes.

by brodie 7y ago
If you’re looking at shields with fans you should just wear a mask. Take some anti-itch medication or ointment beforehand. Based on what medical professionals are saying, regular shields aren’t going to protect you from normal aerosols. Soc

So you like the new one then? I ordered a maxed out MBA and am curious to try it out. I’ve only used the original design.
