I'm not the person you were asking, but broadly speaking, almost any instructional video. How do I do/fix/repair/cook/make XYZ? It's a complete lottery whether the top 3 results will actually answer the quest

AppImages are just a portable packaging format while Flatpaks and Snaps also offer sandboxing, and Flatpak is more distro-independent than Snap which is developed by Canonical. Ubuntu used to be extremely pushy about Snap which turned me of

I agree, I just think it's pointless to discuss Axios' commit-signing practices or lack thereof when NPM doesn't support any of it. It seems like axios was already using Trusted Publishing [1] and it still didn't get cau

What you sign or don't sign in your Git repo doesn't matter because NPM doesn't publish from a Git repo. Signing commits is still useful for your contributors and downstream forks but it won't have any effect on the user

I don't know whether this is AI slop or what. The first chart definitely doesn't show average salary AFTER tax, maybe it's a total cost to employer on hourly basis before any taxes or SSC. And the second chart titled "

You should only do this on websites that actually require it otherwise you're almost certainly going to cause more problems than you'll solve. Messing with the UA header is going to get you flagged by every bot detection tool beca

It's just a trick. The methodology used to arrive at >100% numbers doesn't actually consider all of the caloric energy in the fuel. The difference between higher and lower heating value of methane is about 10% and condensing bo

That's not the case for lisdex nor Concerta methylphenidate. Some generics work that way and they're generally regarded as being worse than Concerta. The benefit is that the medication automatically produces a smooth effects profi

It's very amusing to hear this particular argument being made to defend AI companies. When the people want that, it's inconsequential. When the corporations did that, it was their God-given right.

I don't think that's a particularly novel idea, the question is how do you get people who care in an organization that has hundreds of thousands of employees (the public sector)?
