An assertion without conclusive evidence is an assumption.

Don’t organizations solve this problem?

Looks cool! After signing up, “today’s stranger” was written is Arabic, so I wasn’t able to read it.

Couldn’t you say the same thing about time zones? Why adjust the clock when you can adjust all aspects of society instead?

Multiplexing would have a number of benefits. As you say, each client would only need a single connection regardless of the number of queries being sent. Resulting in: On the clien…

While a thread-per-connection seems like an improvement, do you have any plans to allow query multiplexing over a single connection? That would be a huge improvement IMO.

Linking to a huge list of supplement guidelines, most of which cover labeling of nutrient content is not helpful. I did try to dig in, however, and found this: > A qualified health…

“Real GDP” accounts for inflation already.

Agreed. You might as well play candy land.

1984 is a much better book. The writing is beautiful and the story is gripping. For that reason alone, it occupies a larger part of society’s psyche. I agree that many aspects of B…

I have a similar, Unicode-related “favorite bug”. We were expanding our product to a new language that used non-ASCII code points. Part of the system involved invoking binaries usi…

I’m not going to pretend to be an expert here, but I remember a study that found gut bacteria composition predicted whether or not an individual was chocolate-craving or not in ind…

Just to play devil’s advocate, isn’t it also possible that the preference for a monotonous diet is driven by gut makeup?

I don’t mean that expect should be used. But flags like —no-interactive are unnecessary. CLIs can just check `isatty == false` instead of requiring an explicit flag.

CLIs should check isatty and, if it returns false, disable any interactive functionality because it won’t work.

Isn’t this the exact sentiment used by those who oppose vaccinations?

I also built a canvas-based, multiplayer product during the pandemic (ohyay). The product was social-event focused (classes, festivals, etc.) so we focused on multiplayer audio-vid…

Correlation doesn’t imply causation. The US has one of the most relaxed opiate policies imaginable until about 10 years ago. You could walk into many doctors and walk out with an o…
