Chrome also has chrome://serviceworker-internals. I have no idea why Hampton Farms saw it fit to install a service worker. Furthermore, this isn't gated by a permission dialog like location services or plugin access?

I noticed that their coding style consistently uses the spelled-out Boolean operator keywords "not", "and", "or". Can't think of any other C++ codebases that use this -- can anyone else?

I would disagree. If someone chooses to choose getting high over getting help, it's a failure of drug policy in that country. The government has still failed them, you may just be blind to how. This is not the only way a country has to

If a homeless person refuses help, it's probably not because they actively want to live an unstable, day-to-day life, not knowing where or what they'll eat tonight. It's because the government has failed them in the past in i

This kind of writeup of a complex topic really shows the work the author put into understanding the material. Great work! With the demo at the very top, given that the initial configuration is always the same, shouldn't 'mixing&#x

That is a part of the analogy which definitely applies -- Chinese script (even Simplified) often completely ignores Huffman coding-like principles. Otherwise we wouldn't have words like 繼續 "continue" (41 strokes).

I think these reflected a kind of magical thinking when infant mortality was significantly more common -- what happened before the child died must have been the cause.
