That may be why the Supreme Court has chosen “history, text, and tradition” for constitutional evaluation. Changing the meaning of a word in an effort to change a law is frighteningly Orwellian.

You know how you get it right? Either on prem, offline everything, or explicit allow lists controlled by teachers for that specific period. Disable USB ports. That’s what we moved to for one of our kids who couldn’t handle it. Except we hav

Our school has similar restriction, but then shoved Chromebooks in front of every kid and they use chat instead of text, watch videos, and play games all through class instead. When I’ve tried to find alternatives for my more distractible k

It depends on whether what you are printing is intended to last, and for how long. A thermally printed receipt in a car in Phoenix during the summer might last a few days before becoming unreadable. I have Ticketmaster receipts from around

I had the same reaction. Perhaps “vertex” vs “edge” should be used in place of the ambiguous “corner” (which is a vertex in 3D geometry). The 2D projection of the top or side face of object the article shows repeated can be tiled in exactly

That seems to work for Mozilla. It would be nice to see other revenue models, but that exists and having the most used browser as a search client should pay at least as good as whatever deal Mozilla and Apple get.

At least in my area, huge medical groups or insurance companies have bought nearly all primary care practices. They’ve cut costs and raised prices and it’s virtually impossible to see an MD for an acute medical condition. All procedures nee

While it’s more of a treasure hunt, I really enjoy browsing for and buying physical CDs, especially second hand. Albums are often $1, they sound as good as when they were released and they’re easily convertible to any other audio format, in

Pandoc allows Markdown with fallback LaTeX which works incredibly well, imho. I suppose that is if you like both Markdown and LaTeX (along with the rest of its ecosystem).

The carts are shockingly big compared to Vita carts. The plastic housing with a PCB sliding around underneath always felt cheap to me compared to any cart from the late 80s to current.

My point is public money shouldn’t be used for “investment”. If they contracted with the company to make a fleet and they didn’t deliver at least the public would have recourse to liquidate and collect. By handing out free money on a risky

I’ve never bet on sports but watched my grocery bill skyrocket. A few years ago I posted year-over-year grocery prices and in aggregate the bill was 50% over the course of 12-months. Since then we’ve seen insurance and utilities skyrocket,

I’m sure all the money the US government put into Fisker was already gone by then. A decade later and even more reminders of what a terrible “investment” that was.

If you look at the list, it’s primarily (but not completely) about oddities in their UTF-8 encoding. Most of them appear to be on the boundary of adding additional bytes when the case is changed. That’s not really Unicode’s concern. There a
