Gotta give you that. He still might have moved the steering wheel with his thigh though ;-) Crazy how it handled a shitty situation like around 6:55 in https://streamable.com/grihh…

Just to point to another possibility, since the drivers right hand is not in shot, even though his left hand is carefully poised over the steering wheel for the whole shot, it also…

I think I hate you. "But the money" is your argument for contributing to something you recognize as evil. Good on you for having at least some conscience so it "weighs on you". App…

Which is pretty interesting. Apparently Outlook mangles inline patches for the lkml as well to the point that they are unusable and that would have been an interesting talking poin…

Which is why I asked what the issue was and the author replied he/she was using Gmail/Apple Mail. I can see using the lkml with Apple Mail being difficult since Apple Mail sucks bu…

Was my comment mansplaining? I'm genuinely curious. Apple Mail sucks and I'm always shocked how many people think it's "good enough". All the Apple apps are barely functional but f…

I'm kinda curious which client makes writing plain text emails hard though.

I do not dispute that you can use this in your app, my issue is with the server knowing about it (as it is in the demo here) and everything the server can call back from the client…

And that is totally fine. If you don't care you don't need to know. That has been my issue all along. Client computation of course needs to know how many threads are available to d…
