   I do that, too (scan, pay then bag), but it's a tradeoff - you get smoother checkout experience in exchange for some speed. If everyone was throwing all their scanned stuff in a bag immediately, the checkout would be a lot faster.

   It sure must have looked like an easy way to combat blogspam to some manager. However, seems to me that distilled blogspam is still a blogspam.

   Yeah it looks like that, but is this an official standard that's defined somewhere. I am not sure what to search for.

   What's with the `?ref=sanjayparekh.com` query parameter? It's present on every link, is that some new tracking standard?

   I do believe we have already established it was mammoths - there was a thread on that just a few days ago. ;)

    How else could they move those large boulders? Mammoths, of course! :)

    I think Debian is a solid choice, mostly everything is either present or available. Image sizes can get out of hand tho.

    Another vote for Terry Pratchett. He is a master of blending the fantasy and contemporary worlds together. Stuff like in-sewer-ants vs insurance.

    Yes, they are suprisingly versatile. Also, thanks to their low weight (aka "cheapness") they are easy to transport and assemble.

    IKEA has some interesting options (cheap copies of designer sofas/other stuff). Here's a quick overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0nPPc2-jpE It's almost like a "How to shop for nice stuff at IKEA

    But German, the language, was spoken pretty much everywhere (thanks to the Austro-Hungarian legacy). The German-speaking inhabitants, that is a whole different story.

    Yes, they sound very similar, but (because of historical reasons) the spelling is quite different (multiple letters in Polish vs accents/diacritics in Czech).

    First, he OP specifically mentions "the Czechs", as in the Czech part of Czechoslovakia. Second, languages had nothing to do with it. There was an idea that sacrificing a part of Czechoslovakia will be enough to keep Hitler at bay

    A starch is a starch. However, this study seems to compare freshly baked bread to a frozen/toasted one. I'd guess that the difference will be smaller when regular store-bought bread is used instead.

    Why Selenium? Why not Playwright?

    If you ever find that you need to automate some browsing and Selenium comes to your mind, banish that thought! :) Do yourself a favour, use Playwright instead. https://playwright.dev/ It's a headless browser that'

    Their article about the Fisker review by MKHBD ( https://tedium.co/2024/03/04/mkbhd-fisker-negative-review-fi... ) is also great. It expands on the idea that: the malleable nature of software in the moder

    It's probably using mechanical brakes just to anchor itself while stopped (automatic parking brake).
