With Windows 9x, I recall the crashes being manageable, but it was advisable to give the system 15 minutes to settle down after rebooting. Windows would start multiple things at once on startup and it was a bit risky to overstress it. Windo

The point of my post was that the title is editorialized. Am I allowed to say "Did you click the link"? Probably not. But, still, let me suggest that you click the link. Once you've clicked the link, compare the title of the

Well, perhaps you know what they mean! Me? I can only read the words and then guess based on the words I read. If it's not clear from my post what guesses I have made based on the words I have read, and which assumptions I have made

Editorialized title! Portrait aspect ratio (or "vertical video", as it's described here - at least I assume that's what the term refers to - like, as if the landscape aspect ratio has no Y axis!) is not obviously mention

I think you're right anyway. Re-reading the post with your comment in mind, I think it's clear enough that this was what was actually meant.

But the link to the post was posted here just now! - which I'm assuming means something. Both share a theme: the trials and tribulations of running an open source project, I suppose. Some contributions, one way or another, demand more

The app still gets to decide though! Most programs do go full size with an alt+green click, but not all. A column-style Finder window, for example, seems to go taller but no wider.

I am using Sequoia and the windows are definitely rounded! Though the radius is pretty small (the curved region is about a quarter of the mouse cursor area), so the fact you can drag it from outside the window doesn't look ridiculous.

If you got rid of the slider entirely and just had it flick between the two images instantly, the entire handle business would become irrelevant, and you'd never need to think about it again! I admit I don't do web stuff, so perha

If you're referring to the <·> thing, you could well be right? I figured that was merely an indication that you could drag the thing sideways! (And I'm clearly not the only one that feels this aspect of the site would benefi

Here's a tip: any time you've got before/after screen grabs, don't do this thing where you've got to drag a line to switch between the two, don't have a fade, don't have a sliding transition, or anything l

I used this a lot when I was doing Windows stuff professionally, and I always really liked it. The command line interface is good too: supply file spec that you'd type in to the GUI, and it'll print a list of matching files to std

I've often been suspicious of this too, having noticed that building one of my projects on Apple Silicon is way quicker than I'd expect relative to x64, given relative test suite run times and relative PassMark numbers. I don'

That's interesting. I assumed this was self-deprecating. I wonder which of us is right. (The web site doesn't make it very obvious, but it appears to be a UK company, and Ruiz seems to live in the UK. So not impossible!)

Well I messed up my joke slightly by adding a time-dependent BTC value, which was silly of me, but I was trying to cover all bases. I should have stuck to the classic 1 BTC = 1 BTC :( (Anyway, in answer to your question: at time of writing,

This article contains multiple lies. For starters, it is not the 5th of February. Also, 1 BTC = 1 BTC, or, in dollar terms, despite the claims, $64,400. I didn't pay much attention to the rest of it but I can't imagine it was any

Inflexible window layout. (For example, suppose you want to see breakpoints list, call stack, and find results simultaneously. You can't, as they all share the same panel. Which is always on the left of the window.)

Ahh, interesting, thanks. (I read the reference manuals but typically ignore the rest... I don't need to write this stuff, just read it!) I've seen people recommend creating docs to be LLM-friendly and I was wondering if this was

No, I was referring to discussion of the semantics of flagging. Apologies; I thought it was phrased clearly enough, but, perhaps not. (Maybe I should have said "that discussion" rather than "this discussion"? This is my

I was struck by the "Magnitude: High | Applicability: High" bit. Who writes like this? More importantly, who reads like this? The V4 doc (which I have yet to read, but I did a text search) has 64 occurences of this sort of phrasin
