It was actually more a technical question, the site uses LiveATC streams, there doesn't seem to be any specific reason to limit which stream the user chooses, I was just wondering if there was any particular reason for it. Maybe you co

British English as a language might, British people do not, and the physical facilities are the same. We say someone is “held on remand” if they are incarcerated pre-trial, and the part of the prison which holds prisoners pretrial is often

4.5% includes everyone with some level of colourblindness, but total colourblindness is much, much smaller (at least by a couple of orders of magnitude). In terms of demographics, women are much less strongly impacted (around 0.5%), and Cau

Any idea why only a handful of airports can be selected?

Yeah I think Mitnik’s abilities were mostly around thinking about doing stuff that no-one had considered that you could do. It’s still a big skill, but nowadays, there’s less stuff that no-one has thought about before.

Interesting. Word of caution though, valproic acid is teratogenic, and should not be taken by anyone who may become pregnant. The linked article suggests it could be a “wonder drug” to enable learning, but there are also downsides to taking

One of my favourite dash controls ever was the Saab “Night” mode. Very simple, one press and all of the backlight illumination was turned off except for the absolutely critical controls (speed, etc.). Super useful for reducing distractions

While considering that sounds sensible, it seems the on-call was able to escalate to the team with very little delay. As far as I can tell from the timeline, it only took 11 minutes from the moment the on-call first attempted the action unt

Yeah, they'll all just set up new opcos in the EU to carry on doing business, rather than actually selling up.

And of course back when everyone had desktop towers, “the CPU” was everything except the monitor and the peripherals.

It’s arguable that even the stuff we consider to orbit the earth like the moon is really orbiting the sun. MinutePhysics did a great video on this: https://youtu.be/KBcxuM-qXec?si=VngVwXeRKFPjnh15

This letter does not say severance. It is deferred resignation. During the 'notice period' of 8 months, as far as I can tell the only definite derogation is that there will be no return to office required during those 8 months. Wh

Yep, and the rules are absolutely mad. You can watch at home or on the go, provided you're on battery power. As soon as you plug your iPad or iPhone or whatever you're watching iPlayer on in somewhere else, the address the electri

That's correct. Svelte has form for overloading JavaScript syntax with its own additions. This rune is not JavaScript. What it actually is is a flag for the compiler to abstract away the complexity of signals by saying "treat th

Yeah the printing money bit. Generously one might even say that that’s the reason for printing more money: make sure that the value of peoples investments decays over time so there’s no need for the market to crash to “get the money back ou

One thing you’re missing is that there’s nothing that says the value must correct. There are at least two very good reasons it might not: Nvidia now has huge amounts of money to invest in developing new technologies, exploring other ideas

No. But then someone could ruin your stats by sitting there and refreshing all day long.

Just because you can build great things with Tailwind doesn’t mean it’s not democratising design. In the same way as putting frets on a guitar helps amateur players make better music without stopping great players doing their thing, Tailwin

I don’t really agree. You have curated colour palettes, so if you want a red, you’ve got red-50 to red-950, rather than an entire RGB colour space. Similarly for font sizes, you don’t have to decide on a pixel size, just whether it’s small,

Ok fair enough. I was actually talking about the whole of Tailwind rather than just the typography ratios, but I can see how I could be understood in that way. My mistake. Either way, Tailwind works in exactly the way OP describes as their

You're using a right angle bracket there like I said that. I didn't. I would find it difficult to explain, especially given that this is exactly what Tailwind does: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/font-size .

For now. It’s not clear what the monetisation strategy is, but probably it will be paid in future (alongside whatever other strategies they may have, like selling data, etc)

by d1sxeyes 2y ago
No one cares what your typography ratio is if you can’t get it in front of a user quickly enough (dead code elimination), reliably enough (type safe), or cost effectively enough (i.e. if you have to pay for more developer time to implement

Not certain about Polish any more (it’s 15 years or so since I studied) but certainly Russian uses the genitive singular after numbers ending in 2, 3, and 4 (e.g. 02, 23, 34, but not the “teens”) and genitive plural for numbers ending in 5,

Someone decided that that article needed an illustration. Astounding the breadth and depth of things you can find on the internet.
