    I mean, on the other hand you could be dealing with an unreliable CGI-served page where errors are eaten and hidden in ajax calls, wishing they’d used a reliable javascript framewo…

    For all the captchas on this site you have to check every box, IIRC.

    `tput sgr0` reads terminfo to find out how to issue a command which resets all currently set colors, text properties, and so on, then resets them. A lot of people will do something…

    How does this compare to Elder.js[1] which released a little while ago? You seem to have similar goals - mostly static site with small amounts of interactivity, minimum JS to achie…

    Kind of an aside from your question, but binary patches not being much smaller than the full thing might happen more with modern games? Heresay, but from what I've heard modern gam…

    How can I sign up for a subscription, then? I seem to have missed it on the page.

    The Switch cable situation is always going to be a bit finicky, because their port is on the extreme edge of the spec's tolerances - it gets shorted because it's actually possible …

    I was just able to set this up by looking at their Nix example and swapping out pkgs.nix for pkgs.gfortran then changing the `.replit` file to compile and run a hello world example…

    The data does, really - on an off-hand search I found this[1], though I'm sure many more could be found. The US has trailed the rest of the world for decades on wage growth and inc…

    My definitely-not-a-lawyer reading of this even seems like there’s a decent case to be made, by the definitely-not-legally-exhaustive “required elements” there. The goodwill is the…
