I can execute a TAS speed run of any game I want in a couple clicks. So why do speedrunners still exist then if they can never hope to match TAS? I can open Stockfish and absolutely destroy any human I want in chess. So why do people still

The UX for the authorization prompt is awful. The only difference between a regular sign in prompt and authorizing access to repositories is a single word: "Repositories". For example, these two prompts look very similar: https:&

Black Friday for me is about the tradeoff between money and patience. Customers who do not have patience but have money can pay the normal marked up prices. Customers who have patience but do not have money can wait for Black Friday. Sure,

Do you know if there's something similar but for the task bar? I really really hate the stock Windows taskbar. The design? Whatever, I can live with that. But it constantly refuses to unhide, it drives me crazy.

I always thought the main appeal of Vocaloid was it's signature robotic sound. If you want to synthesize more realistic sounding voices there are better options.

It doesn't, but if it isn't, then it shouldn't claim to be responsive. Being responsive is nice for usability because then the site can adapt to any screen/window size. However, in my opinion, it is also fine if the site

Unfortunately, this is definitely not "responsive". It's effectively just displaying an image and then scaling it to fit as you resize your browser. - It doesn't work properly if I resize the page after the page loads. E

inetd spawned a process for each incoming request/connection. This seems kinda similar except instead of a process it's a whole container.
