Not that he wrote the headline, but: he certainly doesn't have the face of an 18 year old. I'd actually peg it > 40. One of the distinct pleasures I remember from the ages of 18 - 25 is _hanging out with other people that age_

We use a markdown plugin/doclet tool to process javadoc in our codebase, and it's worked wonderfully for many years now. The fact that whitespace isn't significant in standard javadoc is complete insanity - you have to choose

My local park had a hang-by-the-hands-only zip line about five feet above irregular brick ziggurats. No soft surfaces anywhere. It was so insane.

I'm going off the linked article, which is about multiple individual schools with that level of loss. But I appreciate the correction; I should have stated that number more carefully.

Social media is awful and terrible; no argument there. But SPS has much larger problems to address internally before tackling this broader societal issue.

Seattle Public Schools has seen enrollment drop 30% (!!!) over the past couple years because it is an utter shambles [0]. (correction: many schools have that level of decline or higher, but the decline district-wide is much lower). Cancel

Ah thank you! I've been using wasavi on Chrome but real-vim may be enough to pull me back to Firefox.

We are doing that actually, but the other way: rather than moving the people, we are moving the climate.

On OSX w/ Chrome I use wasavi[0], an extension that implements a nice subset of vim directly in the text area (much like OP's system, but not using actual vim). Works really well, better than other extensions I've tried that

I think it's because we can scan it easily. Groups of 4 or more can confuse the eye: when looking at 5 things, you sometimes have to take a moment to realize it's 5 not 4 (and, to a lesser extent, the same is true of 4). groups o

Civil liability is nothing. We need police resources to find creators, not civil subpoenas of YouTubr upload IPs. Otherwise every election will be swamped with unattributable deepfake videos, which is doubtless the direction we are headed.
