I do have a vague memory of working with tooltips intensively (the above kind with title attributes on form elements) and there not being a lot of flexibility.

You probably mean, haven't I heard that you're not supposed to look at code any more. Mainly, looking at it is the problem. Decades old copy-paste editing techniques get around the typing.

Not sure; it may be doable remotely with some CSS, in which case it would be a few lines of code for any number of buttons.

Before we had futexes in the Linux kernel, spinlocks were used to boostrap the implementation of everything else in the user space threading library. If you have futexes you can try to grab a lock with an atomic operation and if that fails,

This is insanely verbose just for a button with a tooltip: import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button" import { Tooltip, TooltipContent, TooltipProvider, TooltipTrigger, } from "@&#x

I wouldn't suspect someone switching every few weeks would have a problem. Other cases will arise: someone driving nothing but one-pedal for 7 years, suddenly finding themselves without it. There are going to be new drivers who learn o

One-pedal driving trains a driving habit that could lead to a regrettable mistake when getting used to a vehicle without it. The driver's seat is no place for poorly considered conveniences.

I hate the tall center storage boots that leave me with no room for my elbow. There is no reason for anything to be there in a front-wheel-drive vehicle. Why do I have less elbow room than in some 60-year-old rear-wheel-drive that has a tra

A number of mainstream Lisp dialects including Scheme and Common Lisp support a notation for encoding graph structure, with shared substructure and cycles. It's not always well-defined to use that in writing code (e.g. a program with c

Wow, Simó's Choreographies are nuts, how all three bodies can just follow a single convoluted orbit, at different phases from each other. Nuts! This one: https://www.threebodyorbits.com/orbit/simo2001_sc301_1_1_1

If both are on the same page, then it it can't be a domain-level (e.g. DNS) property, but something in the HTML markup. Like a certain actual <div> contains 18+ material; if the configured age of the user is less, then that eleme

I would never call a software project SPICE; I use a fucking search engine when naming things to avoid the cringe of ignorantly landing on a dupe. (And also use SPICE in the LTSpice incarnation; I should give ngspice a spin one of these day

> need for kanji is self-fulfilling Well, yes? The language is built on kanji. In a 100,000 word dictionary, the vast amount of content is words that someone made up by putting together kanji. It is kanji-first. None of it makes sense

It seems what would be more productive would be for sites to publish metadata about the nature of the content. Then the access method could decide whether, or which of it to show. Analogy: parent seeing that a movie is R rated and not letti

In a Japanese dictionary, you can find homonym clusters as long as something like 12 words. Native speakers get confused in conversations and have to refer to kanji regarding which word they mean. Except they don't write down the kanj

by kazinator 14d ago
Firstly, the native syllabary uses conventions that give rise to ambiguities. For instance えい (ei) can encode a long e sound like in "sensei" (teacher) or a separate e and i, like in "deiriguchi" (combined exit and entra

If it fits, it's not the wrong year. I once put an exhaust manifold from a 95 Civic into a 98 Civic (replacing its cracked one that was filling the cabin with toxic exhaust fumes). I had gone to a Honda dealer to inquire about a new on

Not really; ganelonhb is pointing out that there is an alternative choice, not insisting that (1) the individual must make that choice and (2) if they don't others must shun that individual and their projects.

Swap partitions are your set-and-forget permanent installation that covers daily use. Swap files are for "oh shit, I need to run this rare thing that needs lots of VM". You create them, "swapon", then "swapoff"

That's where the intelligence lies. It is not artificial intelligence; it's a hallucinative, interpolative search system through information produced by natural intelligence. The interpolation is all that is artificial.
