At long as it doesn't involve [multi purpose eggs]( https://www.euronews.com/culture/2026/06/06/mehrzweckeier-di... ) or calls to violence you should be fine.

The comparison to pandoc seems needlessly hostile. Most users get pandoc as a standalone binary (e.g. the Debian package). Pandoc is a bit on the larger size, but for what it offer…

AFAIK it is always backed by a sqlite DB. That way the sync just populates the DB and the completion process doesn't care (or wait for) the central source.

Until you measure the apartment later and find out that a) it's much smaller and b) it doesn't matter because you rent the apartment as seen, not as advertised.

Ironically I found my current keyboard (a quite nice Cherry) in a store near me. For specialty parts where it doesn't make sense to have to them sitting around in stores everywhere…

I have a family of four and we manage just fine. The kids aren't toddlers any more (which only means that we can't put everything in the bottom layer of the stroller), but when the…

If the expense is tax deductable, it mostly doesn't matter whether you have $10 earnings vs $10 business expenses or $10K.

At 0.1% (which still seems high) you lose out on the entrance fee but still get paid for food, drinks, memorabilia etc. Compare that to the cost for the system and the negative pub…

You can make this claim for any larger number by asserting a base rate of 1% without evidence.

I asked the ASML rep at KubeCon who they were there for as nobody I knew had a quarter billion to spare. He told me they were just interested customers, but if I didn't want the ne…

It's hard to qualify Zeiss as a "small business". Also, they pay their own employees wages and deduct taxes and social insurance so it's not like they pretend to be an independent …

In the benchmark Rust is more than 50% faster than the runner up

Stores are required by law to provide the price per unit/weight/volume alongside the price, so you can directly compare the price of a pint of beer to the 0.33 liter bottle without…

I use it all the time, but almost always sarcastically (as in "load-bearing tinyproxy instance").

Buy a steam deck. It sends a strong signal to Valve to continue supporting Wine and you get a Steam Deck

That makes it sound like 50 shades of grey would have had a 50/50 chance of getting into the top 100 if it only was included in the wider selection

The architect should have required Hindu numbers. Same result, but even more confusion.
