As the other commenter said, Kit is the name of a baby Beaver. The welsh for child is plentyn, if you were interested.

Really? It seems pretty clearly written on the home page to me. (This is the first time I have heard of the company).

Worst during the interrail trip. It was for me and it wasn't even close.

I did it in 2010 and I think the majority of my friends have done it over the years. At least around that time it still seemed very much alive for people in the UK.

What are you talking about? The video is free on YouTube. Patreon is just another way of supporting the channel beyond the usual ad-sense, sponsors, etc. No one is expecting them to make a fortune over night, but it at least shows there is

Quite unrelated to the main topic, but shouldn't it be Croydon, London? I have never heard anyone called it London Croydon before. Generally addresses/places go from most specific to least and given Croydon is an area of London it

I agree, but its tricky as many people seem to not read it and I have seen AI documentation that is so verbose and dense that its almost as useless as not having it. Its a fine line but so long as the AI documentation is reviewed and reason

It maybe a surprise to you, but many people actually enjoy 'music' and don't find it to be just noise.

You could say that about almost anything. There are plenty of people who dont use VSCode so it seems wise to make it a separate app.

Great if you are an English speaker. Do we then translate that to every language we need to support? Do we scale the UI to work for the different length words? I dont think that is any better at all. If anything I think its solidly worse.

Also not really true. There are trains all over the world that draw power from over head lines and from 3rd and 4th rail systems.

Getting it in paint form wasn't the issue. But the issue with that is many of the originals have changed colour over the year, so getting a match is hard. Plus the plastic is brittle so if you want to replace things you need to print i

Im dyslexic and I tend to use the pointer to follow what I am reading to help me. The cat was annoying as hell. I just had to hide the element in the DOM before i could read more than a few lines. Infuriating design choice to make it follow

If thats really such an issue, you can just get the browser to translate them for you?

Did you really not read this as a joke? It seemed obvious that it was one to me.

There is a plastic part in the middle to hold the pins which would need a mold. But you are correct that the outside would probably be formed with a die

I assumed it fell into the bog and so it was basically impossible to get to?

British trains are mostly a profit making enterprise for other European nations, rather than an actual public transport network for the people who need it. (Their are exceptions to this and not all train companies are linked to other countr

You are wrong. Musk is CEO, Chair and CTO according to Wikipedia.

I am really not sure how much of the general population would agree with you. Having a slim laptop that I can drop in my bag and not take up the world of space is great.

Same. I would love to see it get static types.

Matte ends up with lower contrast because it defuses light and washes things out, especially in bright light. I think LTT did a video a while ago showing that it was actually worse in bright light than a glossy screen.

Scala it depends how you want to use it. If you're going for full FP then sure it can take a little bit longer, but you can also just use it like Java+ if you really want...

Does it? As a welsh person it hurts me to say that Wales was never a kingdom in the United Kingdom as its was under English rule for a long time before that came about. You could I guess still use the name, but its weird. I would love to se

No, that's not true or fair. The gov.uk contains stuff for all countries not just England. Although it may contain stuff for England that does not have a place elsewhere. The fact England doesn't have a devolved government is ins

I am not sure I follow your argument. If you are using it for private (ie encrypted) chats then you should not be using it for SMS... I think they have a good point when they say that having SMS there tricks less tech savvy people into thin

Well yeah.. because they are hidden files. They wouldn't be hidden files if the default wasn't to hide them...

Automated messages are pretty much the only thing I get via SMS. Other than the occasional message from my mum who likes to randomly flip between WhatsApp and SMS depending on which way the wind blows.
