1) If it really was a bomb and went off, the pilot wouldn't be there to explain to the press anyway. 2) How likely would a bomb's name really be "BOMB" vs anything else? If the lat…

Yesterday I found an app that I need to keep my bluetooth headphone from entering sleep mode. It is Sound Keeper: https://veg.by/en/projects/soundkeeper/ . And it uses exactly the …

I believe most of the time this phrase is said to an inexperienced artisan who has no idea how the current system works, what's the shortcoming of it, and how to improve upon it. T…

Why can't Cargo have a system like PyPI where library author uploads compiled binary (even with their specific flags) for each rust version/platform combination, and if said binary…

Maybe I'm dumb, but I can't see how the code in the "Errors and map" section can compile. "transform_list" returns a Result , yet "result" is just a Vec. I thought you always need …

But Edition can exist only because Rust intrinsically has the concept of package, which naturally defines the boundary. C++ has nothing. How do you denote a.cpp be of cpp_2017 edit…

I don't understand the strategy from the election spammer here. They clearly want the recipient to vote/donate. But if someone spends time to type "STOP" instead of ignoring, he ha…

I've been using AI to solve isolated problems, mainly as a replacement of search engine specifically for programming. I'm still not convinced of these "write whole block of code fo…

1. The richest 1% vote whoever makes them even richer, at the expense of all the other 99% poorer than them. 2. The other 99% people no longer play the "democracy" game with the ri…

I don't know why didn't PEP 420 make one file at root of the package that describe the structure of all the sub-directories, rather than going the controversial, lazy route to remo…

The page 8 ("Building") of the slides has the badger picture to the right. His right hand has some weird "nails". Another example of AI-generated image.

Last time I calibrated my monitor for sRGB, the first step DisplayCAL ask me to do is to aim for 120 nits brightness. Sure a screen is capable of outputting 500 nits, doesn't mean …

I completely disagree. I personally find dark mode harmful to my eyes. Try this: open a page full of white text on black background. Stare at it for 10 seconds. Now close your eyes…

> I find it much less painful on the eyes to read in dark mode at night I don't understand this. Do people not use lamp or light source in their house? Are people living like cavem…

"Blame" 2FA for your own mistakes just sends bad message. How do people who are capable of setting up 2FA (therefore not tech-illiterate) still don't use password manager? Imagine …

How is this syntax highlighting? If you put " " in quotes as string, it's still green instead of white. Proper syntax highlighting must account for both languages and content in co…

Can someone explain how does an existing media player understand the new mdat format without modification? I assume if they find a completed moov at end of the file, it would recog…

If a website uses targeted ads and track users, they won't use the PPA feature Mozilla introduces here. So the setting won't affect user. On the other hand, if a website is not evi…

This gives me impression like what happens to the nuclear weapon proliferation. At beginning, it is an arms race, between US and USSR, between users and advertisers. Either side th…

According to my test, xxhash-rust does have significant edge over TwoX-Hash. However, it is still slower than GxHash. gxhash | 4 > 8300.74 | 8 > 16684.68 | 16 > 33121.69 | 32 > 381…

> Yet last I tried on Google having a login/password is mandatory I just tried and all I need to provide is the email ID and passkey. You need to use the "Try another way" option. …

You would think it's that easy to make the table heading sticky with just one `position: sticky;`, until you decide to do anything with the table content. I have a table with stick…

I disagree. Although this "Sudo for Windows" is not a one-to-one port from Linux, it does the same function which is to elevate a unprivileged command. Imagine if they announce "In…
