Probably distributed computing was not common at the time, so a truly universally unique identifier was not needed. And UUIDs were not used as database keys so they did not need to be time ordered. I still think they were quite naive. I mea

In retrospect it is super obvious that you'd want a time-ordered UUID with a random offset. I wonder how they managed to screw up 5 iterations of UUID that were basically useless to most developers.

I bought something that goes around the neck. I wonder if Sony's design is more efficient https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%80%90%E6%96%B0%E7%99%BB%E5%A0%B...

Now you've provided an explanation I can see you're right (but downvoted). We would say Thomas-es in the possessive so it's written Thomas's.

It's a thing that this poster does - unnecessarily using Japanese words in italics rather than their English equivalents.

Use xfce. It is much more responsive than gnome.

A not insignificant number use their phone or headphones while riding, drink while driving, drive on the pavements, ignore red lights, ride two people on one bike and so forth. There have been many accidents at crossings, especially when bi

The Bristol to Bath journey is the UK's most expensive ticket by £/km. (Although it's £10 for a return if both trips are on the same day)

At the moment I got a visa that allows me to stay for 15 months, which provides a good deal of stability. I think a few years is probably the sweet spot before moving on.
616.
by rjh29 3y ago
You can do that for a year or two, then move on to somewhere else.
617.
by rjh29 3y ago
I'm also obsessed with this and have mostly countered it so far by moving house every few years, living and studying in several countries and trying new things. The negative being that I don't have any stability.

For Japan at least a 30 day sim is like 6-10 EUR so that's not a great deal.

I've used US and UK keyboards with very different layouts, it does not take long to relearn the muscle memory. Or swap it in the bios. Either way it's a non-issue.

I had a similar experience writing a dictionary for Japanese person names based on usage frequency. In collecting the data I went from zero to being able to read the majority of names. I did end up making a frontend app for the data but I h

Wow that makes so much sense when you put it that way.

I think in the EU it's illegal to provide less than a month of trial period, but I could be wrong, does this count as defective?

In that case another easy recommend is Disco Elysium. Fantastic writing and huge amounts of choice.

I was downvoted so to clarify: portable usb-c monitors that have a foldable stand that doubles as a screen cover. Thin, cheap and easy to take along with your laptop.

by rjh29 3y ago
Indeed, what I mean is I don't personally see a huge productivity boost compared to virtual desktops, and have spent a lot of time working abroad with a single laptop. An external usb-c monitor is occasionally useful but people who swe

It works for you but many of us can cope with a single screen.

Usb c extra monitors are very cheap nowadays.

In the case of Ladybird they build everything from scratch (intentionally) so existing open source code cannot be used. The main argument for doing it is because it is fun, just as with SerenityOS. Having alternative implementations is neve
