how? can you capitalize on that upside somehow? sell them, live in a tent until prices are down?

thanks, I forgot the name of the app!

I wouldn't be surprised if that oils and bacteria, and if that's dependent on particular user's hand microbiota. Apple should and could test it on users who report fraying, IMHO. Mine mbpro USB-C charger cable is just turned

new oculus = oculus quest 2? it has an adjuster, though with just three fixed settings. Or which one?

heh, your exchange looked pretty much like a holywar between programmers. Except problems looked like if you're discussing merits of different old varieties of BASIC, with GOTO and line numbers. I really don't see how excel is mor

Like being a "programmer" is some genetic trait or something, or like using excel in any more or less productive manner doesn't require carving out hell a lot of time, it's just that time is taken from user's lives

I wonder, if, with such a spotty support, and being forgotten and overlooked by many administrators, ipv6 is already a major attack surface

hm, does Pharo have native-looking GUI now?

fun thing, it's other way around for me. I hate writing, because I skip letters all the time, have to cross a letter or two to correct that mistake, and make a mess as a result. Not much practice for more than a decade, of course. I ha

if that'd peace your mind, we call it "Gang" in Russia. But I wouldn't be surprised that it came from greek too, most greek words lost their endings when loaned to Russian

you can also have something akin to MIDI encoding with higher bit reserved to mark that next byte is a part of length field, too. up to 128 bytes with no overhead, up to 16kb with one byte overhead, and so on. Such a detail would be easy to

is nuitka compilable with itself?

There could be consequences, btw. Like being barred from getting a pilots license in US if you'd ever acquire a taste for flying for example.

well, jsonlines works extremly well for gigabytes of short json objects. You can mix and match usual unix tools, or simple scripts with just "read" in a loop, and you can parse each json object without worrying it'll take all

although nothing really vanishes anywhere, no? I wonder, if sun or anything else would fully annihilate, would resulting gamma radiation still produce a gravitational pull just because of the energy contained in it?

Mandatory squash merge would be very bad, right. But it sounds like success of this policy is highly dependent on the code size of average PR. I really liked to work at place where commits were usually squash-rebased, which got rid of most

git CLI isn't so bad for that, why? I do --fixup commits all the time, git commit -i gives me all the power to reorder, merge and even split commits.

I started to make money writing in perl when it was long on decline already, in 2005-2007. I've switched to ruby after that. It's not widely known, but perl had a lot of influence on ruby, in much cleaner syntax and without baggag

1password payment form filling works fine so rarely for me, I usually copy just number by hand. I wonder if that's somehow specific to Russia (field names are still in english, but it doesn't seem to help much)

7-8 meter diameter mirror in outer space would be too small? Should be possible to put into orbit in one starship launch. And a system of big mirrors could be probably assembled and aligned together, without gravity and outside vibrations.
