Though, just to be clear, the per-user ones are also public. They're just a convention where if you make a subpage of your user page and call it "Sandbox", nobody is going to complain about the encyclopedic value of your edit

A lot of words to say "it's quicker when you allocate three large arrays rather 1,000,000 objects" That feels sufficiently intuitive that describing it as "a JavaScript performance issue" is a bit confusing. (There&

To elaborate slightly, note that "reliable" is sort of Wikipedia jargon. When it applies to a news organization, it means that statements of fact are likely to be correct... or at least, not intentionally incorrect, because erro

He's also appreciably more senile now, and a common manifestation of that is lowered inhibitions. I'm not saying that Trump was great at 70, but now that he's 80 he's considerably less in control of himself. (If you doub

"Ugly" is a very opinionated statement there. I personally find it's fine, and Python's required-indentation matches what I'd be doing anyway. It's no different to me than a project which lints indentation via

It's hardly "inexplicable"... particularly if you're comparing it to Perl, a famously hard to read language. * Python has clean and readable syntax that a complete beginner can understand -- it's really close to t

I'm not sure they've got Apple targeted so much, because Apple has been so thoroughly not-invested in gaming. The place they're closest to colliding is VR, but Apple's Vision headset is doing something really different f

Hunyuan V3 is the only other one that plausibly has a bite taken. The weirdness of the fillings being decoratively sprinkled on top of it does rather count against it, though.

"Get me the recipe from this page" feels like a place where I do really care that it gets it right, because in an unfamiliar recipe it doesn't take much hallucination around the ingredients to ruin the dish.

Yeah, bisect is really handy because often a bug will have been introduced as a side-effect of a change made to support something else, and if you don't know what new usage was introduced you're relatively likely to break that i
