When you're multilingual, you'd switch between languages on the fly, mid-sentence even, just because the words in other language come to your mind quicker, seem to better match nua…

> Becoming aware of typography practices will drive you insane. And try to use the em-dash properly these days!

It's decent. Treatment of franchisees, on the other hand...

And alliteration for extra cool.

As I see it, the name fits perfectly. If the superellipse is a square at n -> inf and a circle at n = 2, then in-between... welp, a squircle.

I was with you until I remembered the default unit for angles in calculators is degrees, not radians.

I'm honestly out of the loop, what are they doing?

I've, in turn, heard much praise for how Estonia is doing it.

Scunthorpe problem seems to be showing in the latter case.

I was involved in the 99,999th and the 100,000th one in my FQA days. We were being onboarded, they were just for demo and were promptly deleted. No one cared about the Cool Numbers…

Don't they any way?

And a proof by "counting something ": 1 + 2 + ... + n = n(n+1)/2 2 divides n(n+1), n(n+1) = 2m 7 * n^3 + n = 2*(3*n^3 + n) + n^3 - n = 2*(3*n^3 + n) + n(n+1)(n-1) = 2*(3*n^3 + n + …

I'm trying to have fun continuing this with the reals, and I'm feeling dizzy.

Congrats on finding time! Maybe this will push me to get back to my nib stash, ha. Got any experience with adapting fountain pen inks for calligraphy?

The East/West names for the branches mean "eastern branch/western branch", they both still are pretty much N/S-bound

I concur. Consider TFA. The symbols are not converted to from ASCII smileys and are used like an extension of the charset. Conversely, I remember web chatrooms in the mid-00s, wher…

Isn't it?! There's plenty of talking about how "we're regressing to hieroglyphs", but that doesn't capture the nuance in usage of emojis in different languages. Your example expand…

Multiple desktop shell sessions per user. Oh yeah, that would rock

Per a nitty exploitable quote, do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down? You can generalize addition to semigroups but that's not a point, eh?

Too(?) much of the same. I've seen enough of the word "masculine" as if it was an insult and conversely speaking of femininity like a virtue per se that I can't resist a double tak…

Prior discussion (May 2021): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27230826 Btw, I cannot recommend enough the other work by Marcin Wichary. For me, he's the paragon of making the m…

Then, however else you'd want it to be, states do come and go too, regions change hands...

Part Univers/Zurich, part Mac's SF. Hits the spot for me!

How is a fee for a certification "a nice barrier to entry"? I get an argument about funding the body in question, but the barrier thing?
