I do wish tinyVG or similar would take off, but I don't see that ever actually happening. the only thing I think it's missing is animation support, which is pretty niche but not as…

if you ask that question alone, AI is most likely to get it right, but the usual pitfalls of AI apply; they sometimes randomly get things wrong, people are more likely to miss wron…

I could see being concerned about food safety; I wouldn't trust an AI recipe to tell me how long/what temperature to cook chicken, and I might not trust someone who uses AI to gene…

as a beginner rust programmer, I agree. it takes me way longer to parse someone else's rust code than it does for me to read C or C++, even though I have about the same amount of e…

the towers in my area all switched to LED recently. the slow, glowing blink of the incandescent ones probably isn't as visible as the modern ones, but I do dearly miss seeing it ou…
