It's significant yes, but it's not a new phenomenom. It's "the Capitol" to you, it's "The US Capitol Building" to the rest of the world. Is it newsworthy? Absolutely! But it's not a new phenomeno

It also highlights the unashamed US-centric view of this place. These kind of events happen all the time in other countries and you don't hear a peep on here, and rightly so it's considered off topic. But it happens in the USA and

That sounds great for local development. It sounds like a vector to keep an eye on for bug bounty hunters. Any time something is "assumed to be [...] secure" there's a good chance that assumption can be broken in some strange

F# is 15 years old and there has been a "F# foundation" for past 5 of those. If your concern about Microsoft abandoning F# is genuine then perhaps that can re-assure you.

Right, the mirror doesn't actually flip. It's just we think about turning around to try to "match" what we see. And humans are more left-right symmetric than up-down symettric. If we try to do a headstand to match the

Actually most of the pogchamps players have commented how their chat is more toxic when they're playing chess than other games because of the backseating.

And feedback too. In the real world your program don't tell you if they're correct, or efficient without a lot of extra work. It's also much easier to find a solution if you know there is a good solution to be found.

Indeed, and to explain for the audience, in speedruns the split to get construction bots up and runnuing is around 40 minutes. The WR time to launch a rocket and get 'space science', the final science is currently about 1hr46m.

That seems to mirror the trend for "cultural marxism", a term frequently used by the alt-right, so that trend chart may not show what you think it does. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=US&q=Cu

I've not worked out when firefox reader view is visible and when it isn't, but for this blog it isn't, which is a shame because I find the chosen font unreadable.

spyware is software that spies on other processes . Usage data is a better name for what gets returned in most telemetry. I would much rather genuine telemetry is supported so it can be reported in a way that doesn't allow a "you

Right, the best thing about points is that they're not time. If they're time, you get held to it. People vaguely responsible for your rumeneration might look at ponder, "Why did it take eterm 3 days to complete that 6 hour ta

Does GrubHub have much of a presence outside of the US? As someone from the UK I've never heard of them (Deliveroo is everywhere here along with Uber Eats).

Most the big streamers got to where they are by view botting, the "fake it til you make it" approach. I'm not recommending that, it's something that Twitch are hotter about catching and banning these days, but it has mea

That's just bias because you've had 20 years of "google" embedded in your brain. When launching google sounded more awkward than Yahoo did at the time.
