I find it ironic that the most timeless sayings are about time itself; "Time is a flat circle" indeed!

Contextually, yes. Sometimes it matters, sometimes it doesn't. Same thing goes for the dash/underscore distinction. I imagine there must be similar grappling in the editor world between usages of dash vs. hyphen

Nobody's productive sitting in an office for 12 hours. There's an unspoken rule about showing up before your boss does and leaving after he leaves, it's a huge time waster.

Did... you stop reading my comment halfway through? I don't understand why you're correcting me with information that's literally in the following sentence.

tl;dr: Right now, Wine doesn't work on Wayland compositors (this was news to me!). If you're using Wine on Wayland today, it's running through XWayland, which is essentially a X11 => Wayland shim. This article is about the

Much like nuclear fusion, the year of the Linux desktop is just on the horizon. Jokes aside, desktop apps on Linux are more common than ever, thanks to Electron. We all bemoan the continued gobbling of good, sensible software by the blo

Basically that, yes. The idea is, as long as the mutable state starts and ends within the confines of an individual function, you can get away with treating that function as if it were "truly" FP. The main argument against this is

I don't get the backlash. Sure, I can see the platform imploding if they started charging for existing features, but let's give them the benefit of the doubt. I'm pretty sure this will be more of a "Discord Nitro" o

It might use fewer resources, but the JS engine chugs. That's fine if you're a No-JS ascetic, but the second you pull up a PWA it's hang city.

It's true. They nailed him for a parole violation after he was put in a coma by them . It doesn't take a sceptic to figure out that they're running him through the kangaroo court. IMO: he'll be dead of "suicide&quo

I actually agree with you. That probably prompts the question: "how on Earth could you possibly hold both of these stances simultaneously without being a big, fat phony?". Yeah... okay, admittedly it probably doesn't prompt

You're technically correct, because they use Blink, which is a descendant of WebKit. I'd say it's about as pendantic as insisting that Windows 7 is built on top of Vista as opposed to XP. The prior statement is certainly mo

Sounds like a display driver issue. Make sure to run a system upgrade and reboot. Some Nvidia users reported success after switching from nouveau to proprietary drivers. If you're (understandably) unwilling to change out your display d

Password managers are supported via scripting integration. GNU pass, lastpass, keepass, and bitwarden are all supported, you just need to have the respective local CLI client installed.

This makes sense if you don't believe in the existence of undesirable women. They exist, and there are just about as many of them as there are undesirable men. When you improve "dating market" efficiency, you're essentia

I think you're misattributing inter-state violence to domestic violence. At best, your argument discounts European states like Germany, who, of course, had reform imposed by outside forces. (On that note, East/West German reunific

That's a solid point, though, I think polygamy is acting as a barometer of social inequality in your example. I am forced to admit, if men were treated like women are in Sudan, that OP's scenario of women forcing men into harems

The underlying glibness is not lost upon me, but I'll engage with your counterpoint seriously, even if that's why I'm not fun at parties. The French revolution happened in just one country. The entire continent of Europe begs

Quite a bit of child nudity and a camera that occasionally lingers in uncomfortable places. It's not strictly pornographic, but it is nonetheless (unfortunately) popular in less scrupulous circles for reasons beyond the plot.

Respectfully, this logic reminds me of the leaps commonly seen in crackpot conspiracy theories. I am highly skeptical of any supposed connection between economic equality and increased civil unrest, let alone polygamy . Critical thinking t

You are, of course, correct. It's not exactly a bulletproof heuristic. At best, you'd probably only be able to identify likely filler episodes , as opposed to filler scenes . A truly sophisticated approach capable of identifying

I suspect you could make some progress on a "fluff eliminator" by leveraging the existing "sakuga" database[1]. "Sakuga", in this context, meaning the well animated parts. After all, there's a fairly stron

I think it's a bit like felony murder. Nobody wants you committing felonies, but, if you do commit a felony, you're incentivized to avoid causing potentially deadly situations. ( setting aside the actual efficacy of such incentive

I did not know that! Though, that answer raises its own questions... If the two are entirely unlinked, what's stopping Intel from slapping "Now 3nm!" on their next gen processors? Surely some components must be at the adver
