I imagine lonely men seeing you playing basketball together on the street and thinking “How come I never make friends”… > how, for dad’s in particular, there is a massive need for this - Yes - And also for single men at 45, because eve

Why did you stop? It seems you did, but since it made you feel excellent, it seems strange to “choose to stop”. It’s not an innocent question: Gains and feeling extremely well and confident and serotonin-boosted are only useful if it can be

There will be fewer comments because most people have already commented in story 1, but it is nonetheless beloved and I can’t wait for part 3. I hope I won’t miss it (but I don’t want to give my email).

Hearing the HDD back in the day was important to understand whether the computer was working; It seemed like a loss when we moved to SSD, but SSDs are so fast that sound isn’t a necessary sensor anymore.

Maybe Meta has older people with more spending power. That’s the lesson of Spinal Tap: Sometimes you don’t know what your success is caused by, and every rationalization makes you optimize the wrong knob (hence the “amp it up to 11” meme).

I’ll answer: Nothing specific to Mockito, it happens in every language. Tests “solidify” code which makes refactoring hard. And yet, after refactoring, one can be happy to have tests to check whether there is any regression. Testing is hard

Is it victim of the enumeration vulnerability, ie between 403 and 405 you can guess what they were busy with and therefore identify the activity? Or do they randomize the numbers, but then just 3 digits seems little for such a big country?

You’ve written more words in answers than in the original article. Thank you very much for giving us this privilege and providing “support” for details of your writings.

Yes. It pulls people towards normality, since it gives the average words for every answer. Meanwhile social media encouraged people to be different enough to surface, and therefore encouraged abnormality.

Kagi systematically doesn’t return any good answer whatsoever. It’s such an awful quality that I can’t imagine anyone seriously promoting it, therefore I bet these comments about Kagi are advertising posted by bots. It’s not possible otherw

Many gays (or “non-heteronormative” as you say) are anti-woke. You’re operating a dichotomy between your opponents and you, trying to paint them as sweeping generalizators. But this is not wokism. Wokism is when you take “gays” and attribut

Comparatively cheaper, no. Americans could afford a lot of things, but the average American home looked like Malcolm in the Middle, and not so much more fancy for the higher class. Meanwhile in 2025, people have immense furbished kitchen (I

This is not woke, no matter how large you define woke. You can see links with the ACLU or various human rights defense groups, but those groups may have become woke, without “global surveillance” becoming a woke topic. Wokism is about makin

What? What’s the relation between your question and being safe while consuming ok-content? I said “deemed”. The judge can decide anything even if the user really is above 18. Not even to ask how you enforce age verification of characters in

In addition to “drawing”, it’s also the loosely interpreted age that concerns me. Any drawing “deemed under 18” is just as criminalized as the actual crime. While there are many Instagram users who pretend to be above 18, many drawings of

That’s the best improvement to my life ever. I migrated from a normal-person rental to a million-dollars house, but to me the true luxury is, having someone to set the house back to impeccable state. I should have done that in my 42sqm flat

This is more frequent than you would assume. I’ve neither subscribed to Apple Music nor Spotify for this exact reason: I’m a millenial who would like to discover music. Another extremely annoying effect is, being 40+, they only suggest musi

Excellent way of putting it. Just a nitpick: People should look up in medical encyclopedias/research papers/libraries, not blogs. It requires the ability to find and summarize… which is exactly what AI is excellent at.

That’s it. It singlehandedly sold the idea of an AI browser to you. Like I now want an AI radio in my car, and we’re all putting AI between Google and us because Google’s results unfiltered are bad.

It’s wild how often specs are ok for 9 versions, and then at version 10, standard bodies decide to transform them into a trojan firehose. It’s so regular like clockwork that it has to be a nation state doing this to us.

I’m French but… there isn’t a comma, is there? “Fixes” is the main noun, “bug” qualifies the noun. “Fixes of bugs” or “bugfixes” like “weekday” or “storm trooper”. Whether there is a space or not depends on lexicalization, ie whether it fee

In aggregate yes. When the most stupid die, the average IQ increases. I’m joking, by the way. The more risk-taking people might be the ones who push civilization forward. Starting with Churchill…
