You're framing this in an extremely slanted way. > So honey is undeniably aiding in the sale. First of all, "undeniably" here is hyperbole. At best you could say "possibly, occasionally". You were already brought

The decline in usability and organization of the Windows start menu over the years has been frankly staggering. Whenever I see screenshots of the old menu I get pangs of nostalgia.

The code equivalent of a "migration" is that you just write a new function that takes your new desired argument types, and then have the old function perform whatever type conversion is necessary and call the new. If writing such

As the old joke goes - Rust has 50 game engines but only 5 games. The tools are there, sure, but are major studios using them?

It sounds like your problem isn't with funny images, but tonal mismatch. In that sense I agree with you - if the article's tone is lighthearted, use lighthearted images. If not, then don't. I would expect the "a monad is

Yeah the new context menu is horrible. Fortunately it can be set back to classic, I think with a registry edit

Kinda off topic, but this page and many other pages on dagger.io seem to be loading very large GIFs that would be much better off in a compressed format (mp4 or webm).

I think the distinction is evident in the words themselves. Coding creates code, programming creates programs. If you write code but it doesn't create a program (i.e. you are just recording data) then you're coding but not program

The answer is that zig doesn't have macros (i.e. syntactic transformations). Comptime functions in zig are just that - functions which run at compile time. They run after typechecking of existing types, but they are capable of creating

The Democrats don't need a white man, nor someone who served in the military or anything of that sort. People who think this are also living in a bubble. Obama wasn't elected via magic spell. Democrats just need someone, anyone, w

Very commonly seen in corporate politics. A promotion has certain requirements which seem objective, but all someone has to do to block your promotion is simply make sure you never get assigned any work which would fulfill the requirements.

From the 2nd example: class Rect(left, top, right, bottom) fun rect_like_to_rect(v): match v | Rect(_, _, _, _): v | {"LT": [l, t], "RB": [r, b]}: Rect(l, t, r, b) | {"TL": [t, l], "RB": [b, r

I suppose the implication is that, checking for null allows your cleanup logic to be more complex than simply calling free() for example, the object could be managing an open file, or an open socket

A commit which does nothing more than change permissions of a file would probably beat that, from an information theory perspective. You might say, "nay! the octal triple of a file's unix permissions requires 3+3+3 bits, which is

I would go further: don't parse with regular expressions. At all. They should be used for search (does this text contain something I'm looking for) not parsing (creating a syntax tree from unstructured input).

Huh? Malicious actors would just use a Chrome user agent. The only people being hurt by such blocking are legitimate Palemoon users. If your so-called "bot blocking" is nothing more than a string.contains() on the user agent, it&#

99.9% of companies also aren't going to feel the performance difference of synchronous replication. That being said, the setups I typically see don't even go that far. Most companies don't mitigate for the database going down

I tried this just now on Chatbot Arena, and both chatbots very confidently got the name of the park wrong. Perhaps you thought I meant "1st and 2nd" literally? I was just using those as an example so I don't reveal where I li

That's because, based on the training data, the most likely response to asking for directions is to clarify exactly where you are and what you see. But if you ask it in terms of a knowledge test ("I'm at the corner of 1st and
