They could try to cheat! That's actually what Volvo did in the Dieselgate. The EU regulation mandated the impossible duo of lower NOx emission and higher fuel efficiency. Diesel engines get higher efficiency by increasing compression r

"Deforestation" is also known as economic development, when someone is not trying to disparage a third world country. Malaysia and Indonedia, with their relatively stable politics and governance, gained a lot of FDI in the 1970&#x

I didn't "choose" these, they are standard metrics used by industrial analysts. You know, the people who plan port expansions and cargo ship purchases, they need to deal with the actual tonnes of goods moved, not the dollar v

No it doesn't? If you only want the print format, just do the print format layout, ignore the web format. Why do you care that it's broken there?

by chabska 1y ago
True, but with CSS you define one layout for the web format alongside a different layout for the print format, using the @page rule.

by chabska 1y ago
HTML+CSS has facilities to target a page format (CSS @page rule, cm and in dimension units). Not to say that it's on the same level as LaTeX, but it's pretty impressive by its own right.

That's a very loose definition of "synonyms" . Most are like "conceptually adjacent".

The HTML structure is very problematic. You use a <table>, even though semantically the game grid is not a table of data. I would have used a <div> with display:grid , though this is not a big deal. The active cell is a <div&

That misses the whole point, in that you cannot refer to Y inside of Y in an environment that doesn't have recursion.

If you really believe that argument, why don't we follow it to the logical conclusion, that all crimes should be made into state enterprises. State home burglary? State cryptocoin rugpull? State hitman? State jaywalking?
