You know how the distribution of 2-value vs 4-value for new tiles is a weighted random function? And sometimes you get an unlikely 4 that really screw you over? Have you thought about adding a mode which always creates the worst option of t

I used i3 for a few years when my main dev machine was Linux. I too am frustrated by the macOS builtin WM's shortcomings. Initial feedback on AeroSpace though: it's utter shite. I started it when I already had my usual number (man

Is the same true for Azure Pipelines? Given Actions forked from Pipelines I'd imagine it would be straightforward.

Kind and caring != understands dog behaviour. 99.999% of agonistic behaviour is driven by fear. What a normal person thinks is a kind & caring behaviour can be terrifying for a dog. Non-pointers point. Some pointer don't. Non-retr

Correlation is not causation. There could be plenty of reasons why pitbulls feature highly in the dog attack stats (severity making attacks more noteworthy, type of owner increasing likelihood, stigma causing human behavioural changes makin

Did you read the paper? They derived 8 behavioural factors from the survey questions, and there are a few which are very relevant to dog-human aggression. #1: Human sociability #2: Arousal level #4: Biddability #5: Agonistic threshold (ag

Based on a quick scan, there isn't much right with it. Just lots of people looking at pictures of dogs doing nothing and squealing about how dangerous that particular dog is - based purely on its looks.

Depends on the dog, depends on the child. As per the paper, breed is a poor predictor of behaviour. I wouldn't let most adults in this thread play with my dogs unsupervised, based on the state of the comments.

No. I wouldn't let a 6 year old play unsupervised with any dog. That would be incredibly irresponsible, and has lead to innumerable unnecessary child & dog deaths. Would you leave a 6 year old unsupervised with a hungry rat? No -

Exactly this. Scrolling through the customisation feature list, I just see "more work", "more work", "more work" - and it's not super clear how doing all this extra work is going to help me. And I'm i

Others have mentioned the estimate of 270 derived from serial numbering. Nikon have also said very specifically in this case that they are recalling 152 pieces sold since last July. That will likely be artificially depressed by the covid si

Brilliant quote: The bridge trust said the proposed planning conditions would not amount to the structure becoming an overly controlled and regulated place, insisting the visitor hosts are “not police officers”. It said that while the visit

Blocked is the wrong word. It implies that Apple had to take some action to stop Flash from working, which would otherwise be the natural way of things.

I liked the original Tower when it came out, and I paid the £50 or whatever it was since it was so much better than everything else. I don't know if it can compete with SourceTree any more though: pretty much all of its advertised new
