It's such a common problem with graphical interfaces in general. If only we gave our users the same affordance we give developers with versioned API's. We shouldn't be breaking interfaces haphazardly, and that includes the

True, but if you're alone, you could pay less to share a ride with others being picked up and dropped off along the way to your destination.

That sounds like something that should be handled by law enforcement, not your bank.

Being young means you're less likely to be totally responsible yet. Being poor means you're less likely to have parents that are 100% engaged in your library visits.

In fairness, the letter's author seems more concerned about how the complaint was handled in public regardless of what it was about.

Where could I read more about this analysis? Genuinely interested to understand how x86_64 is such an albatross and more details about what could be accomplished in its absence.

To be fair, there is "git branch <somebranch>" to create a new branch. Then you'll have to checkout that branch if you want to use it. Your third git example above just combines those two operations into a single comm

It's a shame you can no longer upload music to the InfiniteJukebox. Apparently it relied on a Spotify API that was shut down October 1st. Best hope going forward is an open source library that can offer the same track analysis that u

As a potential counterargument, if you fear Red Light Cameras but don't know where they are, you'll drive more safely at all intersections, not just the ones where they're actually installed.

This is very cool. Over $500 USD for this Blender plugin and the 38 Twigs they currently have on offer is chicken feed for any professional use. But it sure is a lot for casual use and playing around. Blender 2.8 comes with a Tree generati

Thanks, that worked. Although I did still have to suppress the page scrollbar with "body { overflow-y: hidden; }" Not sure why.

Don't think that has the desired effect; at least if I understood the request properly. The text area won't get a scrollbar when more text is added to fill the view area. It seems in this case you would have to manually ensure th

Don't think there is a way to tell the difference without stepping outside the universe to look back on the system relative to another frame. But AFAIU, there is no edge to the universe with an unknown something beyond the barrier. Sp

I remember phone numbers and long digits of numbers by their position on a number pad. Don't know why this is easier for me, but remembering the pattern my finger would trace tapping in a sequence of digits just pops in my memory with

This is a really interesting and immediately practical talk. He presents a tool, which is available today, that has produced very impressive performance improvements in widely used software.

zoho.com has a free tier that includes the ability to use your own domain, which gives you the flexibility to change providers if ever necessary.

How does this implicit Copy trait interact with the Drop function? Doesn't that mean that the implicit copy would be dropped rather than the actual value for those types?

Even software emulation would be nice.

You can but then you're using a lot of propellant rather than gravity to reach your target.

We're all part of the same natural world, we have more in common than we have differences. The world we're all born into doesn't seem to particularly care about suffering -- it's baked into its very fabric, we're a

Because each commit is in a cryptographically secure chain, when you sign a Git tag it vouches for the referenced commit and all the commits preceding it. This can be done at important moments such as each release.

Tigers and bears don't seem to have any emotional strife about their position in the food chain. Don't think we should feel too bad about it either. There are real concerns to address about sustainability though.

That still doesn't protect you from malicious drivers and bloatware installed on your workstation though.

That's dodging the point. Your assertion that my point of view was purely subjective while the opposing views were not. What constitutes guilt is simple, being convicted of transgressing a law. The objective measure in my book, is tha

No more than people who are saying the opposite is true. We should use objective measures. There are tangible real world ramifications for the effects of robbery. People who get offended at nudity suffer some mild discomfort at best. We s

The kinda conflates two very different events. I never made a case against something as serious as robbery. The real point is that unlike robbery, nothing very serious has happened when you see a picture of a naked body.

Because just deleting the nudes and moving on with your life is too difficult? The human body doesn't upset me enough to worry if some man or woman spams their junk at me. But there are images that I find emotionally hurtful, and I do

You mentioned your anecdote multiple times, but expect others to only mention theirs once? Not to mention it was likely a different person responding to you each time. It seems like a very natural pattern, not surprising.
