Not just their "expert" opinion, but whatever opinion is current this week. This is the same media machine that lied to us about masks, told us to be suspicious of a "Trump vaccine", and that covid was "just the flu

The Windows 3.11 -> 95 transition was built on user research, but the Windows 10 -> 11 transition was build to enable market research. There are many competing interests that get in the way of building things that the users actually w

That title made me expect an "incredible journey" post. I'm very glad that it wasn't.

Another take on this is to intercept the login message and use that as the trigger: https://github.com/infinisil/on-demand-minecraft

I suppose it becomes trivial to make everything "Labor's Fault(TM)" when you can arbitrarily inject data.

FTA: "She pointed to Operation Ironside, the huge ANoM bust earlier this year that resulted in the arrests of more than 290 people, as a reason for the need for the new powers." So a successful police operation NOW is evidence tha

The smug confidence when the outlets assert these things is one of the most galling parts: > Babies and young children study faces, so you may worry that having masked caregivers would harm children’s language development. There are no s

More precisely, "the other side" claims that we do not in fact know the vaccine is safe, and points to all the other times "the mainstream" side lied to us as reasons to be skeptical: the US Surgeon-General told us &quot

The premise here is wrong, because lens operators are very much designed to carry meaning. See my sibling comment (parent->parent->sibling, I guess), but operators with `@` operate on indexed optics, and the leading `%%` means "m

The lens library has a reasonably consistent visual language baked into it: - Operators containing `%` apply a function to the target (mnemonic: % is "mod" in many languages). - Operators containing `=` have a `MonadState` constra

It's also telling that the team doing SC: Remastered cared enough to make an emulator for EUD maps (SC1 maps which used a buffer overflow accessible from within the map scripting language to execute arbitrary code), but the War3: Refor

Terrible title, and we should not be rewarding such clickbait with our attention.
