I think this is the idea behind the Baseline <Year> standard you see on a lot of mdn features now, it shows the year when the feature was available in all 3 major browser engines

iirc they are both powered by the same engine to stream and replicate the WAL. I believe R2 is now implemented as a Durable Object backed by SQLite now.

From what I read, it was because they couldn't fit the charging circuitry for both into the dongle. Better to not deal with the confusion of one not charging

I imagine something like this could be a fantastic tool to teach about differential equations and their applications. Just looking at you can see specific hallmarks (sources and sinks), and how that sort of analysis can have super-cool uses

Rust By Example helped me to get off the ground pretty quickly and give me some ideas when I was stuck. But honestly just making something is the best way to learn rust, the compiler will hold your hand enough for it to be a pretty good lea

The language works for the programmer. Those with a higher focus on safety (like rust) make the worst programmer better.

The most important part is preference IMO. People have the right to choose which is right for them, and if they determine that dark mode is better for them (even if they just think it looks better), having a setting in the OS that cascade

Yes there was a demo, but it didn't actually submit anything at all. It just mocked through what the exam would look like with timers. The demo is still up and you can still look at it

As a student who took 3 AP tests this week, it holds up well. The main weapon CollegeBoard leveraged is that these exams were only 45 minutes long. For example, AP Calculus had two questions: A 25-minute, and a 15-minute question, each with

The first point is the most appealing to my brain at least. Type inference is a really useful feature (when paired with a nice IDE) and having a single standardized prefix to declare variables regardless of what type it is can help the ment

Yes, and those who are naturally good at standardized testing (such as myself) have an advantage on the SAT, which is one of its issues. But as far as College Board is concerned, the actual content is largely irrelevant. SAT Math does not t

(For perspective, I'm still in High School, and have scored pretty well on the SAT) I think what a lot of people fail to realize is that the SAT being based on Aptitude is intentional. Doing well on the SAT means knowing how to study

They have a premium service, but I can't imagine they're making enough off of that. From what I can tell, they aren't making money, and are just spending investor capital

In the past I've run into projects where the source was on GitHub where you could compile yourself, but binaries needed to be purchased. Lemme see if I can find it
