If the comments aren't published automatically, but await your manual review, then why didn't you go with "comment by emailing me"? Was speed the motivation? (Obviously sending mails is far from fast.) Or did you conside

Using quotes in DDG used to work for me. Unfortunately, for a couple months now it doesn't. The results are garbage. Often they don't even include most of the words I typed, only the first one.

Another aspect which is often neglected in movies of today is character development. A character's backstory is either completely unknown, or is told instead of being shown, or is shown in a couple seconds, and then something happens t

I used to pay for Netflix and still torrent its content due to the low quality of video, sometimes mysterious network problems (only with Netflix), sometimes not being able to watch a movie without dubbing (???). Generally, no matter how mu

I expect a lot of it comes from people not being aware of what Shift+Enter does in Slack. There is a setting in Slack which makes Enter break lines, and Ctrl+Enter send the message. IMO it should be the default. It could break away with the

In my experience, people who were taught programming in uni are the ones who know fewer languages. I suspect it's due to the amount of money Microsoft put (still puts?) into making sure that C# is popular in that space. I studied maths

I tried it on Linux and it appeared quite buggy, and unpolished. Although it may have been the fault of Debian patches (it's quite obvious that it's not the vanilla version). From videos on YouTube, it seemed that ACDSee is quite

I've taken up photography as a hobby (quite some time now) and Affinity is sure worth its price. Surprisingly, there is even an open source app (RawTherapee) which beats Lightroom with no sweat. I still don't have a solution for o

Ok, heating water makes mild sense, but heated seats would gross me out.

You can have a handshower mounted next to the toilet seat. Also: what bidets require electricity? (Except the Japanese toilet and bidet in one thing.)

In my experience, types which prove certain properties are usually a lot simpler than the tests verifying the same (at least tests which actually have a good chance of catching transgressions, instead of just checking a single hard-coded in

No. That's the first I'm hearing of it. Thanks. I'll try it in the future.

The idea is pleasing, but when you specifically look at Git, its UX is rather disappointing. I'm not even talking about the CLI (after a while you can get used to it). I'm talking about resolving conflicts. If I have a sequence of

> I've heard macros slow for largely the same reason, it's not the macro execution itself that's slow, it's compiling all the generated code. If that were true, the same issue would apply to hygienic macros, yet it

by yakubin 5y ago
Rust does compile slower than Go, but it's not due to generics. It's mostly due to LLVM codegen and procedural macros. Go has the benefit of not relying on LLVM and not having procedural macros.

by yakubin 5y ago
Although monomorphization takes a significant chunk of a typical Rust compilation, it pales in comparison to LLVM codegen and execution of procedural macros. So although it's academically worthy of note, optimization-wise it's not

A while ago one of commenters here hinted to me at the existence of such a proposal. I didn't know the exact proposal then, but after a while of struggling with this part of Rust I decided to go looking for it. I've found it, but,

What tags and searching do not provide is context. One affordance that putting files into a folder provides is reminding oneself that when I look at file A, I should probably remember about file B too. Later I may even forget about the exis

Rename being atomic doesn't imply that after a rename completes, it's flushed to cold storage. It just implies that a rename is either completely flushed to cold storage, or the data in cold storage looks as if there was never a r

I know some mathematicians print all the supporting material they need in advance and then work on paper for weeks without internet. Although admittedly that's a fringe option. And contrary to the expectation that they will probably ne

"Random ad vs targeted ad" is a false dichotomy. There are also contextual ads. For example, the audience of Linus Tech Tips regularly gets their fair share of contextual ads delivered by Linus in-band. You're not going to se
