Yep. This is explicitly what I listed as "as long as you don't (a), evaluating at runtime". This extremely specific and rare case is outside of the scope of "Generally, this works". It means that some, very few defi

I’ve often wondered if the sheer volume of TV and films being produced has led to a drop in writing standards. Then, it isn’t comparatively worse than anything else being churned out. But probably this also means more opportunities overall,

Yeah! Just like Dropbox can trivially be replaced by FTP, FUSE mounts and CVS……

A nice thing that zsh (and bash-preexec) has is that you can add arbitrary functions to be called on command execution. I work at a large facility with a shared filesystem and many computers, so often I need to answer questions like “What d

As I understood this ruling at the time, one major caveat was that they have to open up payment options but are still allowed to demand 30% of the third-party payments, thus making it mostly irrelevant. This article mentions nothing about i

Somewhat reasonable position - except images were found that matched known and catalogued CSAM images. One would have thought that checking against that would be bare minimum for cleaning a large dataset?

How do people still confidently completely misunderstand “Progressive income tax”. Deliberate feigned ignorance? Ignoring because it has the word “Progressive” in? I misunderstood this when I was 14. Then I grew up.
