>U.S. bonds and some stock prices were once quoted in fractions rather than decimals (typically in sixteenths or thirty-seconds). For example, a bond price might appear as 101 8/32. This means $101 and 8/32 of a dollar, or $101

Eh, if you’re going to outrage-farm over Steam, them following local laws isn’t it. One might instead ask the question why they still operate in Russia in the first place, but that, too, is more of an indictment of the West’s limp-dick econ

I don’t understand this take. The abundance of game engines has never been greater, both open and proprietary. As has the abundance of indie games. Some people make a distinction between more batteries-included engines with editors etc. and

They call this “a game engine built on Source 2”, and their own C# code is MIT licensed here, but I’m still not sure for what exactly this can be used? It’s my understanding that S&box still has major Source 2 dependencies, right? Their

Individuals have been doing this exact thing without AI for years, only better, with actual comedic timing, by just playing both parts. Sometimes they don’t even change clothes and it’s perfectly understandable. It’s a whole meme at this po

I’m not familiar with that particular story, but it’s worth noting that there is a nationwide union for franchise restaurant workers called NGG. They negotiate standard wages with the franchise restaurant association BdS which all the big n

Why do they do this? Is HN such a worthwhile target for astroturfing that people farm reputation with AI comments? And if so, why not add some instruction to get rid of that obnoxious style?

Why do the company names chase away bots? Is it just that you’re destroying their signal because they’re looking for mentions of those brands?

You could look at Godot. Their own editor is made with Godot’s own UI toolkit and in a CAD application you probably don’t care about some of the downsides this would entail for a CRUD app (accessibility, perhaps text layout etc.).

I asked ChatGPT to explain the code from the OP (without the header file), and it seems to have given a really good breakdown. Although I know nothing about interpreters, C, or this fucked style, so who really knows if it makes any sense at

In Windows CMD you don’t even need to hit return at the end. They can just add a line break to the copied text and as soon as you paste into the command line (just a right click!), you own yourself. I have one question though: Considering t

No, sorry, you’re certainly correct, I just meant that any subqueries are generally crazy verbose. And then you usually want additional Where clauses or even Joins in there, and it starts to stop looking like a Where clause, so I’m often ha

Anti-Patterns You Should Avoid: overengineering for potential future requirements. Are there real-life cases where you should design with the future in mind? Yes. Are there real-life cases where DISTINCT is the best choice by whatever metri

>subquery >less verbose Well… In any case, it depends. OP nicely guarded himself by writing “overusing”, so at that point his pro-tip is just a tautology and we are in agreement: not every use of DISTINCT is an immediate smell.

Eh, sometimes you need a quick fix and it’s just extremely concise and readable. I’ll take an INNER JOIN over EXISTS (nice but insanely verbose) or CROSS APPLY (nice but slow) almost every time. Obviously you have to know what you’re dealin

Unfortunately, WebSmell-o-Vision has not yet been unilaterally pushed by the dudes at Google to do this news justice, but as a croissant connaisseur I would have at least appreciated a webp of the thing instead of some random archive image.
