Yea it's not. Sorry to contradict, but it's not like that. In any kind of tutoring arrangement you're time with them is limited, and if they're any good, they don't just regurgitate limitless example code. Two of th

They must use it in games too, no? For level loading, assets, etc...

Kitty renders more cases correctly, more stable, mainly I appreciate it's overall high quality. I don't use it's tmux-like features.

I would suggest, "...code largely provided by...". You asked for it, ChatGPT provided it.

Replace the word "Page" with "GUI" and this could be an article about Visual Basic or HyperCard from thirty years ago.

Easy enough to have the app check the regular file system first, then fallback to the embedded fs. You could have the best of both worlds.

I see, I was conflating the expansion with disorder. Thanks.

So I think I understand this argument and it makes sense to me (at the moment). To me the (to paraphrase), "increasing as we move away from the big bang" stuff seems to lead right to the idea that the expansion of the universe is

Hey thanks! I appreciate the detailed feedback! I'll get this sorted on Ubuntu. As for pdf, definitely possible, just wasn't sure how many I would encounter in the wild.

Interesting, ty. I never thought of the Chromebook option.

Ha! Cool, there's probably a few more of us reading on desktop than I think. I'll have to check out the Humble Bundle thing, I like Garth Ennis too.

I have watched this stuff, but only from afar, because I have a minority viewpoint I guess. I don't find reading comics on a tablet satisfying, my vision is just too poor, and so still mostly read comics on desktop. To further improve

If a payload is native it's potentially more of a problem than a script. If the payload had been c or c++, I wouldn't have been surprised if they noted that either.

Just another data point. I use gmail as my primary personal mail and I'm not seeing any uptick in spam making it to my inbox. The normal rate is very low, 1 every 2-3 months. I have a much higher incidence of random people using my ema

I agree it's psychological. Upon entering an Apple store, I feel like The Dude stumbling into the lair of the pretentious nihilists in The Big Lebowski.

So I need to give this a more thorough read. I'm pretty into comics and related media, but looking at the PoC it presents, I don't understand why it's so janky on first view, nor why it thinks it's good to require both s

I hope this proposal is defeated and they don't implement this. I don't buy the premise that the benefit is worth the price. I think CLI tools like the ones in the Go Toolchain and their usage patterns are fairly well understood b

I only read your headline, so I have no idea why you think that, but it doesn't seem to be working in practice.

This. I was 12 when this game came out and bottom-line any time you could stretch out your game on a coin-op, there was incentive to do so. Really the only competing incentive was to get a free man, so you could also increase your score, bu

It's a fair question. I didn't see any mention of injury in this study and I never see it discussed in these threads. I also admit my bias, I'm an older runner, and I've seen a lot of people struggling, who've unwit

It's also a great way to get injured. Then you can't exercise at all.
