Sometimes it's much clearer the number itself, specially when it's a mathematical formula. For instance, is const MILLIS_PER_SECOND = 1000; ... ... ... ... ... const durationMs = MILLIS_PER_SECOND * duration really clearer than co

Your childhood friend was definitely taking steroids. And thing is, they don't really develop your tendons and other supporting tissues, and definitely not your cardiovascular system. So they tend to gain strength and muscles so fast t

Isn't it due to steroids? This inflamed looking is quite characteristic.

Honestly this looks better than Python. I hate all the subprocess.run([...], check=True, universal_newlines=True) and then you have the manage the dependency hell of virtualenvs. At least with node the node_modules is right there.

I'm guessing the answer will be soul or something of sorts. Not even based on the previous comments, even non-religious people seem to have this supernatural view of a soul.

Honestly, our bodies are different but not that different. Barring digestive issues like celiac disease and allergies, the basic guidelines are pretty much the same for all of us.

Honestly, one would think that the switch to a binary protocol and then to a different transport layer protocol would be justified by massive gains in performance...

That is a fact. Where your ideology enters the argument is when you say that implies they're not human rights.

Of course, like I said, libertarianism is empirically verifiably right. Got it.

"Factually wrong" oh yeah, I'm being factual and logical and those others are being ideological and political.

Binary dependencies are the issue. I find it pretty silly that C has 50 years and the deployment story is such a mess that we have multi billion dollar businesses basically just to tame it

As a (former?) physicist, I very much prefer to try to imagine what would need to be changed in our rules so the presented world would be possible, rather than "ok I accept this little change but everything else has to work as close as

Brazilian here, even beggars accept PIX, the national free electronic transfer system. You can use it to transfer to anyone else by their phone number or email, or to pay bills. Cash is getting less and less common. I find it funny when cry

"Little" annoying? God, having your rectum just spewing out urine-like shit as if it were a water tap is absolutely awful. I can't imagine doing that and then having a tube going up your damaged ass without anesthesia

What's the prevalence of colon cancer within the general population? Per Bayes' rule, I doubt it's enough to decrease the level of false positives to an acceptable level.

"A living being is something that keeps going long after it should have stopped already" I really like this quote from Sean Carroll. Kind of inspirational as well, for me.

That's probably what those apps use, then. Because all those tricks people mentioned never worked. Some explicitly failed saying that my ROM signature wasn't official.

Yeah, I probably tried all those scripts people guarantee to work. Even with all profiles I tried to load somehow most of those apps knew I was rooted.

Sadly device attestation has all but destroyed installing other OS. I couldn't use government or banking apps back in my old phone with LineageOS.
