Interesting that the content off the Approved header didn't matter. I'm only familiar with Mailman's use of same, where the content has to be the moderator's password: incorrect is equivalent to not providing the header,

I think a major component of the difference between contributing then and contributing now is friction/skill/interest. Back then, you had to be specifically interested in learning how to get connected, which was a niche endeavor,

I think it must have a fixed white balance, or the average hue captured would hardly change over time at all. Adjusting the inside lights until the inside sensor is satisfied, rather than based on specifying in absolute units, would also ha

From what I've read, personal API keys (issued to anyone) will continue to work fine, but apps that expose a way to use arbitrary keys (like in a settings UI, rather than hard-coded at build time) will be deemed in violation of ToS, sp

Some places in America do say "pop" instead of "soda," so I'm hesitant to call it perfect... But I'll admit I agree that this is well beyond the scope of regex.

Many places have states (for example, Mexico) but "the states" typically refers to the ones in the USA. Perhaps the same applies to "the colonies"?

Some of those could be avoided by using a search regex such as "\bblonde\b". I believe a sophisticated enough regex could solve all of these, if it were a central library used and maintained by many.

Precisely. The speaker might happen to be "a bro" in the derogatory sense of the word (especially given involvement in an activity that may have a significant population of those people), but that's fairly distinct from simpl

The usage of [abbreviation for brother, as in company names] is very different than the slang "bro" used to describe undesirable people, but it's not very different than the slang "bro" used in the statement quoted

I think bro is always an abbreviation for brother, but sometimes the act of abbreviating is done to save space (like company names) and sometimes to specifically impart informality/metaphor (like TFA). But that doesn't mean the un
