    I agree with your point, and I don't consider RCE a disposition. Still, the average application has about two office actions (CTFR, CTNF, CTRS, CTEQ) before an allowance or abandon…

    I am away from my laptop for the time being, unfortunately. But it's generally a bit of pointer acceleration and enabling two finger scrolling, if I have to configure anything at a…

    I was surprised by this, but at least as early as September 2008: https://github.com/whatwg/html/commit/c67bb312ac44737c6c175b...

    Color me stunned that people are so dissatisfied with their touchpads in Linux. 0-3 lines of options in my config have made me perfectly content with every touchpad I've ever used …

    Edit: new guidance is from 2019 so my comment is not relevant, but we haven't had a chance to analyze much published data from this period anyway

    Applications average about 2 office actions to disposition, so some back-and-forth is implicit

    Is all of that really easier to understand than exponential notation? It's a great tool to visualize floating point precision, but it's lot more circuitious to get to an understand…

    I run it, along with other sketchy garbage proprietary software for wook, in a QEMU VM. Or I just dial in and let people suffer through me being on a phone connection owing to thei…

    Agreed. I find the whole experience to be horrible. Especially having to install some garbage executable rather than using my browser. It does nothing for me that Google Meet doesn…

    Google with bad quality? Meet is working fantastically for me and my coworkers and hasn't been affected at all by the pandemic.

    I mean, so do all the major WebRTC video chat programs. Google Meet is absolutely painless, and I can use it in the browser instead of downloading Zoom's very sketchy application.

    I'm with you. I have no idea what people like about it that isn't already done better in e.g. Google Meet. Having to download a program is also really crappy IMO. Plenty of other v…

    I think you're making a decent point, honestly. I live in a close-in suburb of a midwestern city and I think quite a few of the trucks in my neighborhood are probably 99% unnecessa…

    Yeah I feel like they are almost certainly putting this design out to create some buzz. I can't picture them releasing this hideous thing as-is.

    Better utility than a truck? Excuse me? 6.5' bed and you can't even reach over the sides to get stuff. No stake pockets or any apparent affordance for installation of racks in the …

    Interesting results e.g. on Ruby. I did give the javascript test file a whirl and was able to run it just fine with a nesting level of 1,000,000, so I wonder if something else is h…
