I have an idea! If they are so hungry for citable content they should start a cheap or free blogging platform with images and video and a blogroll and verified credentials and resumes, with your own html css etc and domain name and a git se

People don't talk about it anymore. The list of things you can't discuss is quite long and it has many items that logically shouldn't be on it. You can say for example that the sum of genetics, culture, finances and upbringin

Did anyone use the site search? Whenever I tried it it was disappointing. After ~two attempts I always went back to Google. Having the answer is of no use if you refuse to give it. LLMs didn't happen overnight. With all the aging quest

I sometimes send an email with 1) the things that don't work, 2) terrible ui, 3) possible improvements. Most often I've moved on to similar software that does what I want. I get responses like. 1) It works for me, 2) you should ha

Yes, but it isn't a requirement for doing those things. Atheists are just bad at doing things together. If that means we should burn all the bibles I leave as an exercise for the reader.

It's the gold standard for bad support: pretend the user has a problem. There once was this thread on a blog for a windows XP pirated edition. Someone commented that something small didn't work. They replied in less than a minute,

Since the whatsapp cliënt on desktop was replaced by a web wrapper it's even worse. I don't even remember how the previous cliënt did it but my spelling suggestions are in English (as is the OS) but my chats are all in Dutch. Most

Maybe it should be required to review quality laws in other countries in general. One advantage is that you don't have to pretend or imagine what will happen if it's been tested in the wild.

I have no block discussion. I just read other peoples talk pages. Besides from the obvious cases it is quite subjective what disrupting the project even means. I'm not trying to stop the character assassination article but I will be a

I've never been so confused implementing something. I sat there thinking, this is it? There is nothing else to do? How can this be it? It does have all the features and API craziness other processors offer but you don't have to us

This is the entire debate in a nutshell. I looked at the php article and it's notability is pretty much taken on faith. No one is silly enough to question it. I pick that one because there are countless programming articles about less

It's kinda sad to see the only website with such elaborate guidelines fail to follow them. Your argument appears to be that you don't need real evidence to dispose of editors. It seems we agree?

If the ui calls for it I take the current position of the element and the destination then change the current to be exactly in between repeatedly on a interval. That way it moves really fast and eases into position. One more ancient trick:

You describe the concept of being taken seriously. We use this a lot in real life. It's arguably a very useful concept. Wikipedia has elaborate guidelines for everything but users have their own ideas. For example, the guidelines don&#

It's not so hard but does require some debate and research. Only the sensitive info needs to be contained. For [say] a webshop you have at least the name, address info, email and phone number. Perhaps payment info or coupon codes could

It's really an extension of the abstraction debate. X86 was designed for performance. The language really hates humans compared to machine languages that came before. I thought it was a truly stupid idea at the time but had to change

Some day the right evil person will gain access to these things and use these fascinating capabilities. I hope it will take a long time. In the meantime we might try think of a solution.

I still wonder if the CAFR CONSPIRACY is true. The story is that states have some very large number of little bits of money with and without purpose all parked with investment companies. The total sum was argued to be so large the governmen
