I’d say it depends. I always advocate for code that is easy to read and to understand, but in extremely rare conditions, hard to read code is the better solution. Especially when it comes to signatures in Typescript, complex signatures can

The article mentions it, but don’t insist on it. Duralex is now quite a special company: they were a renowned and beloved brand that was heading toward bankruptcy, until last year when the company was bought by its own workers and turned in

On Ubuntu, when this message is shown, most of the updates except the kernel are already applied so you are mostly pretty secure. And you can choose when that will happen. And it’s just a normal reboot. On Windows, IIRC, you are blocked dur

Iiuc, unlike Sony’s PS3 (which were bought and used like this), Steam is the unique distributor so it would be easy for them to not allow (or make really difficult to) buying thousands of machines. (Or they could sell it everywhere for high

I'm 100% with you except that modern native datepickers are awful . On iOS, selecting a date that is some years in the past or in the future is painful and entering the wrong date by mistake is really. But I agree that it doesn't

Just saw a review on YT. The stylus doesnt attach to the device, the writing experience seems ok but I wouldn't call it a killer feature. Also it uses a color e-ink Kaleido which I personally find useless : the colors are still too was

Saying that there is a market for a sane social network does not means it's a market as big as the other social networks. You don't have to conquer the world to have a nice product.

Depends on the country. In France, and I think in Europe, you have 4 (IIRC) legally mandated visits during the construction. At each one of those visits, you have the right to suspend the next payment (you pay a legally mandated percentage

This one is an old one. I still love it, now with nostalgia. I always wondered how they got all those pictures. It looks like there is a recurrent theme tho.

I do agree with you :) I was just saying that a short duration psychedelic could, chemically speaking, be a good replacement for alcohol with pretty much all the benefits without a lot of downsides. But I agree we are far from there. And th

No, for me 30-50. The objective is to be socially apt. In this dose range I can feel a little drunk but still have a conversation and be less impaired intellectually than with alcohol. But it will last longer and, more importantly, I will n

Except for games with anti cheats, can you quote from your head three games the last 10-15 years that aren’t running perfectly on Linux ? Because from my ~1 500 titles steam library, I can think of one game that I had issues with. And even

Also macOS UI is stuck in the past but not in a good way : they never fixed their windows management which is still stuck on the old paradigm that the user is using an application and not only a window of an application. The Dock is the big
