ISTR poetry really didn't like the black "eternal beta" versioning scheme for a while and installing it didn't work properly. Also, it really doesn't work super well if you need to work on multiple development proje

That’s never what section 230 said, or was intended to do. In fact that’s explicitly what it allows them to do, and without this protection the moderation decisions would be infinitely worse because they would become liable. Repeating FUD m

Pre-commit doesn’t commit if it makes any changes, it just leaves the changed files for you to either add to the index or re-commit skipping the checks.

For large proportions of people a misbehaving operating system is just "how computers work" and it would be like complaining that water is wet.

Tau neutrinos, yes, but electron and muon neutrinos are significantly easier to identify - the problem with tau neutrinos is that when they interact, they produce a tauon, which very, very quickly decays so it's hard to know if it was

Yes, beer52.com is atrocious for this also. I tried over a couple of weeks in lunch breaks and never got through. Eventually I sent an email to some random customer support email I found complaining and they actually did it.

The newest unsupported laptop is from 2015. I mean maybe there has been longer support for previous operating systems but I'm not sure anyone would be calling "six years old" "pretty recent". Six years, incidentally

Right, but this sort of thing isn’t usually used when that’s an actual option, like a small team or single developer. Things like this and QT aren’t usually the alternative to “native applications for every platform”, it’s the alternative t

Right, the reaction wheels help if you want to maintain orientation of the satellite under external forces that want to (gently!) rotate it. And eventually your reaction wheel saturates and you can't get more useful rotation out of it.

This is useful. I used to like, and went through lots of the "Blender Cookie" stuff; even got a paid subscription - but they pivoted to online courses and lots of their individual tutorials and previous work disappeared.

It should be easy to work out the point, if you weren't being completely disingenuous. The topic of forcing platforms to remove illegal content is completely, utterly different to the topic of forcing them to host content, whether ille

Perhaps go reread your own posts, because if you weren’t trying to medium-aggressively bully it is certainly coming across that way. Anything beyond the initial (presumably well intentioned but mistargeted) raising of the LWN note reads as
