All of the adware around the page gives me a cringe feel, like trying Pencil will 100% result in malware on my system.

Reading the comments, it is worth noting that to target someone directly, you just need them to visit a site with a re-targeting pixel. They load an ad 1x1 pixel image that lets google set a cookie to re-target that user when they are shown

I think the lament is that if people do not learn the logical side of things, they are unable to figure out how to reason about issues and errors. They are unable to easily go deep into topics like computer science.

It's about efficiency. Obviously something like python is real time. Even typescript to javascript can be fairly quick (a la esbuild). However, once we start talking about moving bits around using compiler optimizations, things slow do

I think the OP goes a step further to note that not only is it uncanny, it is dangerous.

I've thought about this problem before too. I think the better angle is to put the developers on payroll and get rights to the game(s). Then, as they continue to release titles, your catalog grows. The company is then about creating su

It's probably a good thing if you're not too expert. If you were deep into it, you might be impressed by the choices, but miss the glaring red flags: e.g. The git repo for this cool API has no adoption, no stars, no commits in the

But that's just it. The law needs to be able to distinguish and provide proper protections. I do not think the public at large should be making that distinction because it turns on mob rule.

Cancellation is different in that it attempts to "boycott" an individual for holding non-majority views. If you can no longer get a job because you are vocally pro-choice for example, that's a problem. The state should protec

But this has no protections under the law. If your public support of say pro-life/choice means you can no longer get a job, that's a problem.

This is an odd article, given this island is off the island of Sipadan, which itself is not very large: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sipadan#/media/File:Sipadan_is... I guess it's notable for the fact t

I went to the link and it didn't load for me. I figured it was just a funny joke, but then I realized other people saw things. Missed opportunity :-D

No problem is new. You could use a facade pattern to decouple your framework. Though the extra step is often too tedious for most developers.

I really like this. An industry enforced standard with consequences would stop most problems.

No, but I find a surprising amount of expertise compared to other places where I can ask questions. Googling the topic, will get me clickbait.

So the original article states that the evidence is not there for a change in the hurricane activity, but Nature says that we undercounted before, but think there's an increase that was hidden due to a lull in activity from aerosols in

I'm not saying this is good, but in some previous life, we kept the tour "slides" in the code, and just registered which slide set was seen in the db. If the slide set wasn't seen and was in the code, we'd show it.

I've not gone through several inherited codebases. At first I called them awful --- however, as I've gotten older, I realize that code is harder to read than most people think. We are trained to follow a particular set of styles,

I recently got into DnD. There's potentially groups in your area. You can find them at local game shops. In addition, there's terrain crafting, world-building, map-making, etc thrown in. You can see a fine example @ https:/&
