Oh come on. It takes 30s to read trough their website and feature list to see that no, this has absolutely nothing to do with about.me. It’s mostly for business.

The linked page is 100% ads on mobile, the article content is nowhere to be found.

Yes, but you wouldn’t choose to use Ms. for a 8-year old. So if you’re presented with Ms. and Miss as options in a form, and neither has to do with marriage status, it’s natural that Miss will refer to the young.

I bet a dollar you’re conveniently forgetting a ton of little adjustments you’ve had to make, because they “are not complex at all” for you. Or all you do is use the browser.

Only 8% of the UK’s population is fully vaccinated with the second dose.

That seems correct though - Miss is the appropriate title for a under 18y old.

Why is the headline blaming the news reporting? That is idiotic and evil.

The parts you highlighted refer to the online booking, and are correct - no charge to your card happened at the time of booking, you were charged by the hotel on arrival - as is custom on every hotel check in, online booking or not. On top

Straight from the checkout step where you enter a credit card: > The property will charge you: €xxx > The date you'll be charged—and what happens if you cancel—depends on the booking conditions. And then the booking conditions (s

by jiofih 6y ago
Sounds like you have a habit of not reading terms. For as much as I loath Booking, pay-on-arrival is clearly stated, and there is no escrow because you’re paying the hotel directly.

The mating call of all react devs - “but what about the images”. Who said a 100KB hero image was a good idea either? It doesn’t excuse dropping a 1MB (when executed) bomb of JavaScript to deliver a blog post and making mobile and low speed

React never claimed performance, and the virtual DOM is quite wasteful. Any direct manipulation library will perform better. Plus, it’s dishonest to look at react core size. react-dom, which is absolutely required, is 40KB minified AND comp

One of the comments puts out the possibility that the guy planted the bit about his grandmother being in the circus, which is.. quite believable. Certainly that was public information at the time. That puts the story under a whole new light

You need the Java runtime which is what, 70MB minimum and a few millions lines of code?

Same feeling here - instead of laughing I was disappointed when the second paragraph laid out the April fools joke. I would love to see “small batch data science” where people actually understand the results. Black box recommendations never

a n g r y this is also used in English but for a mocking tone.

See, that’s not even that funny. Especially followed by the lesson on how it makes total sense to attach a class to an object after its creation and how every other language is doing it wrong. And then the 47 ways blessed objects can tr

I’ve heard this a few times but never really saw any of that creative culture working close to a few Perl folks, besides a few funny package names. More a culture of roughness, “hacker cred” and a defensive, short-sighted, we-know-better at

An out of whack MCAS that pushes the nose down, to a point where you can’t overcome it with the trim control, technically puts it into the “unstable” category, doesn’t it?

> huge performance benefits in letting only React control the DOM That cannot be true. D3 is directly optimized for efficient updates, vs the comparatively inefficient virtual dom + diffing. Every performance oriented tool actually skips

by jiofih 6y ago
For a reason. You can’t achieve a quarter of what D3 can with that approach, especially when it comes to transitions and animations.

“There just aren’t any great options” After arbitrarily removing the best options available. Sublime uses a custom UI kit, which while not native Mac leaves nothing to be desired, it’s just great. VSCode runs perfectly fine, has the most aw

Eh. More speculation on an already deflating market.

That’s a fair take, but what about not refunding the full amount when BTC goes down? That seems very consumer hostile. They should take a symmetrical risk like everybody else.

Also not what I’ve seen - calves are kept with the mother for obvious reasons until they are about 6 months old. They might be fed separately though. I’m comfortable with nature. Life is cyclic and you can’t survive without other living bei
