I recently ran into this sort of filtering when trying to share an AI Dungeon .link URL with a friend. It's kind of crazy that entire TLDs are blocked without any indication or warning.

It's not unicode, but there's also sixelplot [1] which allows matplotlib plotting in a terminal using sixel. The underlying pysixel library [2] unfortunately doesn't support Python 3.7+ however. [1] https://github.

I think this is a great explanation. The US has a much more recent history of frontiermanship and homesteading than Europe does, and that continues to permeate our culture in many ways. When I was a kid, books like My Side of the Mountain

I think that's the default for most high exposure projects. Unless, of course, both projects have the same author, and that author's primary concern is increasing their own exposure.

Interesting, I had always assumed that they made the switch to be more vegetarian friendly, but it actually was because of the "fat scare." I googled around to learn more about it, and found an article called Why McDonald's

Very cool. I had the same idea a couple of years back and implemented a very similar interactive tool [1]. If you find the topic interesting, then you might also enjoy the analysis explained in that blog post. - [1] - https://int

Hasn't the rise of Uber and Lyft already turned it into a numbers game? I get drivers that I would consider below average all the time, and I don't have any control over which driver I get. Even when you're the one driving, y

They look at them, but they don't follow them strictly [1]. They make judgement calls on what they should do rather than treating robots.txt files as a legal contract. [1] - https://blog.archive.org/2017/04/17

This is a polite thing to do, but I don't think that there is any legal precedence for it being an actual requirement. Notably, both Apple and The Wayback Machine publicly disregard robots.txt files [1]. I would be very curious to read

This might come off as pedantic, but LyX is explicitly designed to be What You See Is What You Mean (WYSIWYM) rather than What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG). It gives you the gist of how things will end up without attempting to actually
