   Not exactly the same, but I made this Ulam spiral generator more than a decade ago. https://embed.plnkr.co/mdZX6C/ It isn't just doing primes though, instead the size of the dot generated is dependent on the numbe

   I did the same thing by accident, except mine was "test", I heard murmors around about some strange message on computers in multiple schools in our district, so I fessed up immediately. Our network administrator was just mildly am

   You're thinking of a nebula. That’s the remnants of a supernova. A galaxy is an unimaginably large collection of stars. A nebula is still quite large, but several orders of magnitude smaller than a galaxy.

   Answering my own question, apparently `brk #1` is insufficient on Apple silicon. That results in just a trap and will prevent the debugger from continuing past the debug statement. From a bit of searching and my experiments `brk #0xF000` w

   I didn't come across any good ones when creating this library, but if you're using VSCode, I tried my best to make the README as beginner friendly as possible. I'm open to issues and PRs if anything is unclear. I think part o

   I can understand where you're coming from, but when programming games you generally don't want a breakpoint to be hit more than once since you are running a loop over multiple frames. So in this case the concept of ensure_once is

   Interesting. Unfortunately, I'm not well versed in assembly, is there a similar trick or requirement in arm and would that include Apple silicon, or is this something specific to `int3` on x86? That may explain why it was inconsistent

    Thanks, yeah I considered using the instructions directly, but I was hoping for a more cross-platform option. For my purposes, developing in the Bevy engine, nightly isn't a huge blocker. Yeah, it would be really great to just have bre

    I just looked through the perks on my Google One and don't see this offering. I don't see it in the premium perks either. Do you happen to have a link? Is it some kind of hidden benefit?

    You don't need to pay that much to keep a US number for use abroad. Convert any 2fa you can to use an app like Google Authenticator, then convert your number to Google voice. You can get text messages for free using your old number tha

    I wholeheartedly disagree with your assertions on mortality. Global population growth is slowing and is set to peak in the 2060s and will decline afterwards. We're more at risk of not having enough hands to take care of an aging popula

    A couple unikernel projects that caught my eye in the past may be of interest to you. I have no experience with them, so I can't speak to their quality though. https://unikraft.org/ https://github.com/n

    This is not entirely true. Some brain cells and the cells in your eye lens will be there your entire life and could even potentially live longer if they were not limited by the rest of the body. Cancer is definitely a lot more than just imm

    I think cheaply available replacement parts ready from the manufacturer would be a much more desirable deterrent for thieves. Louis Rossman's battle with calibrating the angle sensor on the MacBook Pro is a great indicator that these r
