There is a Swedish snus which tastes just like the smell of CRC 5-56. Not everyone loves it but boy it's nice. I have given up snus though.

Not quite--this predates .net. They acquired Hotmail in 1997, while it was running on Solaris mail servers and Apache on FreeBSD for the web frontend. In a highly publicized move, Microsoft ventured to port it to Exchange and IIS on Windows

TIL! I am not American. A perfect vegan alternative to mayonnaise is aioli, which consists only of garlic, olive oil, and salt.

> Kind of like vegans who haven’t tasted dairy for 10 years tend not to be reliable judges of the quality of vegan mayo - how could they possibly know? Wait, how is mayo, vegan or not, related to dairy?

This is not surprising at all, to me. Just commit the example input and write your test cases against that. In a nicely structured solution, this works beautifully with example style tests, like python or rust doctests, or even running jsd

It's definitely ai slop. See also the nonsensical attempt to conditionally load SQLite twice, in the dynamic imports example. The list of features is nice, I suppose, for those who aren't keeping up with new releases, but IMO, if

I've visited Lady Musgrave Island in the Great Barrier Reef. It is covered with trees called "the grand devil's-claws", the seeds of which are barbed and sticky. The seeds stick to the wings of birds eating seeds, and so

I guess calculating the Levenshtein distance between the sets would work somehow? Edit: scratch that, just intersect the set of available pieces with each set. If there are fewer than n--or m%--missing pieces, suggest those.

This is something I and a few of my colleagues have noticed, as we asked several models to draw ASCII art of a wasp, which is one of our logos. The results are hilarious, and only seem to get worse as you ask it to do better.

That doesn't seem to be an array at all, if the idea is to check whether a number is within a range. Seems like an interesting data type though, a combination of a range data type and a map/associative array.

I had a similar reaction to the borders of Western Sahara, where it seems like most of it is part of Morocco in this map. Apart from these issues, it's really nice, well done!

If there are multiple roosters on a farm, living in the same coop or different coops within hearing distance, they will trigger each other to crow earlier, like it's a competition. Especially young roosters will try to establish themse

I agree. I'm pretty sure jashkenas got it from Ruby, which got it from Perl, with the `/x` flag (for extended regular expressions). Later languages have added support for the `x` flag, including C# and Rust. There is also a stage

A good friend of mine did this; not so much cheese I think but loads of cream, butter, and meat. He ended up with cardiac arrest, followed by sepsis due to an operation. He's mostly ok now though.

Lit does not use a virtual DOM, nor require a compile step. Instead, it utilizes object accessors and tagged templates to figure out when to schedule an update.

I always recommend looking at Server-Sent Events [0] and EventSource [1]. It's a standardization of old style long-polling, mapping very well to the HTTP paradigm and is built in to the web standard. It's so much easier to reason

As a fan of literate programming, I hope this could be a tool in the box for Node.js developers: Testy is basically doctests for Node.js, building off JSDoc's @examples stanza. I would be honored by anyone checking it out: https:/

A bit of background: JRR Tolkien developed a linguistic branch he called "phonaesthetics", the study of beauty of words. Many writers have agreed on "cellar door" to be beautiful in terms of the sound of the phrase. htt
