Admin should take this HN link down IMO. The title is misleading, CNN is not blocking the brave browser. They do have a browser-blocked page, and navigating directly to that page does indeed show that pages contents. Without further infor

Yeah, the HN link is to the "browser blocked" page directly. There was no redirect sending you there - you went directly there. It's not clear if this page was intended to be public, or if there are redirects to it already (b

I don't know if there is an American culture of blamelessnes. Lots of variation, such a blanket statement needs more than confirmation bias. With that said, I think your comment describes kiss-up and corporate fiefdom culture. There ar

Where do you see the harm in the solution? To your other point, I think this is a valid use-case and do not agree with your rejection. I have had experience with such very examples and submitted PRs to add `realpath` to fix them. One exampl

Agree, I like to have a top level "verify" script that does all checks and have CI run exclusively and minimally that one script. Ideally the verify script is just a wrapper around a build and test command

Instead of gating at review time, an org could gate at deployment time to achieve that SOC2 compliance. It appears that Netflix does do CR: "Netflix uses a feature branch workflow, where developers create new branches for each feature

Generally agree here. Just wanted to throw out another variant, additional tags and attributes can be added or modified by XML DTD files as well. The example XML could be just "<Foo />" with the additional values genera

The goal of spaceX was to spend 90 minutes in space and then return to Earth. The 'but' in the sentence to say: "some of that goal was achieved, but not all of it", is not manipulative. I recommend reading that exact art

A few different thoughts here.. Your example is actually spot on: "I had a beautiful wedding, but the walls were yellow." Did the walls being yellow make the wedding a disaster? No, but did the yellow walls somehow lead to a less

Those last two headlines seem quite factual. The second headline, AFAIK the Starship was not expected to explode at all, thus the accolade of "reaches space", "but explodes moments later" seems to be pretty accurate &amp

Bounded by a constant does not mean constant lookup time. Let's say the runtime of some function is (x1 n + x2 n + x3 n), where x1, x2, and x3 represent the L1,L2 l3 cache lookup times. A function F is called big-oh of function G if th

O(1) = c * O(1) = c * O(n^0) Whether you get a cache miss or hit is part of 'c', or whether those bytes are fetched over WAN. Big oh of one just means lookup time is a constant and is independent of data size. The big oh doesn&#x2

I thought the point of the article was more to avoid react if all you want to do is change background color. Thus more: don't use react in the first place, rather than: here is how to use less react.
