Can you elaborate? I was about to ask are there are concept designs for microwaves, particularly the UI, but other features as well - I'd be interested to see ideas of what microwaves could be. I don't think the article is correct

meh, while Python is the modern Basic and general all-round utility, it's not IMHO a very good first language, with quite extensive (and sometimes messy) syntax, not to mention the glaring mistake (again very IMHO) of significant-white

Why not, plenty of countries offer online visa applications. This ESTA, sorry ETIAS thing is simply a visa with another name, albeit maybe a 'visa-lite'.

Exactly, I thought this was in fact the whole premise of tailwind. Scattering it directly through the html is just for testing or special cases.

This seems like an e-washing argument to me. Just a couple of months ago (well after the new CEO joined) they were touting their ammonia engine as the 'death of EVs'.

I'll believe it when I see it. There seems to be a lot of noise, confusion and FUD coming from Toyota lately.

I think epaper works in a similar way to lcd, ie appplying an electric field across some kind of reactive layer - polarizing liquid crystals, tiny charged colored spheres, etc? I only ever see high-resolution epaper matrices, but in princip

Is this page ( https://nuejs.org/docs/nuejs/server-components.html and others) broken for anyone else? I can't scroll horizontally and only half the text is visible.

The economics only really work if you're also a co-working space, and now everyone works at home ...

It's a pretty sad situation that people can't afford 'rent'. But in fact 'rent' means to tear, split, rip, etc, and that's exactly what it is. People who 'own' land, ripping money from people who

Exactly, the fact that you're based in a developing country automatically means you'll get a peanut salary, whether you're local or expat, code-mill or rockstar, etc, etc. SE is not moving to these places for better quality.

I have taught all my kids some programming using Scratch (then lua, python, C#, Janet, ...). Scratch is great as a first introduction because it lets kids get something working almost immediately. From there, they mostly self-motivate. One

Also there are 42 3x3 square Young tableaux, which seems quite interesting, and maybe more fundamental than some (all?) of the examples.

I think Craig is someone who knows very clearly how power works, and that true evil is systematic and does not appreciate the limelight, yet he bravely persists.

I guess the unreadable site is a bug. I'm sure few people here need advice on how to fix/hack this, but here goes; In firefox for example, either use 'reader view' to get a plain page of text, or, select some text, righ

It's not you, mobile everything is awful. But firefox on android, though still not great, seems closer to a desktop experience.

base 6 works even more simply with two hands, 0-5 on each. And less symbols to learn, much smaller multiplication table, and so on.

It's not just useless, but actively harmful. Especially when reading code, there's yet another special syntax form to learn, and one which has no real utility to structure the code better or to better communicate it's intent

"But what I want to focus on is the power of a visionary leader to set out on bold ambitions and bring ideas to life." Apart from single-product companies I don't think this is really a thing. CEO's set the company cultu

A motocompo came up for sale locally a couple of months ago for only a couple of 1000, shame I missed it. Classic design. At 40lbs this thing is only half the weight of the full gas-powered 'compo, way too heavy for a modern take -it&#
