There are few well-documented standards. There are ready-made solutions that have worked for decades. What do you think AI would add?

I sometimes use them for machine to machine transfer. The biggest problem is that regular editors don't handle it in a sensible way.

I wish my annoying neighbor would get this, because then I can post the code online and have the whole world knocking on his door at all hours of the day.

No need to change the system clock for a millisecond. The operating system has an API for changing allt the timestamps of a file.

I can't register an account at discord, negate I'm behind CGNAT and someone else in the region was banned by discord.

Cool. 1 hour later. Spam-scraper updated to support this.

Remember to first punycode the domain part of an email address before trying to validate it, or it will not work with internationalized domain names.

Every change breaks someone's workflow: https://xkcd.com/1172/

The first floppy from 1967 only had one side. Adding one signal to select side was an easy solution to increase the capacity without to much modification of the controller. Adding …
