I haven't worked with npm in quite a while but as far as I remember, it does pretty much the same as pip with a virtual env and a requirements file -- it installs all dependencies into a directory for that specific project. The ergonom

If done right, it gives you a modest speed-up but it's only possible for a short time and also requires some luck without hacks.

Without disputing that assertion, you might not have chosen the most unbiased source to back it up.

It's no secret many parts of LotR are influenced by Tolkien's experiences in WW1, but in these lines it seems especially evident.

I actually much prefer your arrow to the example in the linked article! The lighting of the bird shows its somewhat weird shape very clearly and pretty much gives away the illusion, at least to me.

I think it's pretty cool, but I'm sure what exactly the illusion is supposed to be? I mean, it's an actually symmetrical shape so after rotating 180° it seems rather obvious that we see the exact same thing as before, no?

I don't have any experience with it personally, but from what I understand, Unity comes pretty close. Though it's not particularly constrained, as far as I know.

Very interesting, my go-to workflow so far has been creating backup copies in phpMyAdmin but this seems much more convenient and reliable. I'll give it a try soon!

I could not find jobmachine on your GitHub page, am I correct in assuming it's not open source? We are currently in the process of building something similar and it would have been interesting to see your approach in more detail.

I am fairly sure they meant "if at the moment the light turns yellow you are so close and so fast that you cannot stop safely" That's how I learned it in Germany, anyway.

I think it's especially odd that they only take the time for the actual addition of the arrays into account. Initializing the arrays already takes way longer than adding them in a list comprehension. So if you're doing one-off add
