    Explorer is not good, and finder isn't much better.

    Nah, it's very annoying to be country-centric. The NYT game clues are just so fucking American sometimes and it's very irritating. It's difficult to avoid this altogether of course…

    draw.io can do similar diagramming. You can generate diagrams programmatically through their CSV format. Unfortunately documentation for using it programmatically is a bit lacking,…

    There is an annoying bug in Chrome DevTools that people who want to impede debugging of their JS files exploit. I think it's probably related to making the regex engine use excess …

    That's just because you're used to a US-centric view of the internet from all the other Americans who perpetuate the silliness.

    You must be able to turn this off, because I've been running many homebrewed extensions for years and never encountered these popups.

    Open up Chat GPT, paste your functions and ask it to convert them to rust. Go through them 1 by 1, see if you understand and ask questions about anything you don't recognise. Don't…

    Self checkouts like the author mentioned, which have the "unexpected item in bagging area" component, are awful. Plus the machines are usually laggy. When the machines are responsi…

    Do you live in a first world Western country and is your social circle comprised of people who do the same? In my experience when you go outside of that circle you start finding pe…

    So if their net worth only goes up for the rest of their lives, you would consider them to have successfully invested, rather than gambled? Seems to me your definition is a bit lac…

    Not to be excessively negative, but this really means very little without more context. Maybe it was very slow before, or it's a particulary unused scenario. I'm always skeptical w…

    Here's just one issue: They stem words aggressively, so searching for "repeater", which is a less common, specific term, gives you results including "repeat", a commonly used word.…

    Alternatively, it's called consequences of your actions. Don't be surprised if shitty behaviour comes back to bite you.
