Yes! And you don't need to see Hayden Christensen's ghost at the Ewok party in episode 6, etc. They are a true gift.

This is getting to be the norm rather than a unique feature. I can dispute a credit card transaction through the app for my Citi, X1, or Fidelity cards.

Nice! I've been looking for a reliable book ranking site. The main rankings skew to the "classics" that don't always hold up (looking at you Moby Dick) but the books in the genre filters look more interesting. A couple q

If you're looking for some good quality "expert reviews their field as represented in movies" videos without too much clickbait, Vanity Fair has a long playlist of them that I enjoyed: https://m.youtube.com/pl

The parent is assuming that you can always sell your option to someone else for its fair value. If that's the case, there would never be a time where it's optimal to exercise a call option, because the optionality will always make

This is covered at the very end of the article, in the "Comparison with Doom and Quake" section. And yes, that's exactly the comparison and distinction the author draws, and they explain why Serious Sam would have opted for D

For what it's worth, Wealthfront's HYSA offers free same-day transfers, at least to major banks (they just need to support RTP transfers, which many do). But I agree with your point that an emergency fund is fine as long as you ca

Not sure about "most," but I have this exact restriction at work. I don't think it's extremely rare.

I've used Input Sans for years. I was expecting to have to deal with alignment issues but in my Java codebase there were almost none. (YMMV depending on language and coding style.) The only alignment we use is with leading spaces only,

I'm surprised that this made the front page. This is the investing equivalent of someone new to programming writing a single benchmark of some if statements versus a switch and blogging about which one was faster. The results are far m

When I left for the second drive, the car's navigation app estimated I'd have 13% left when I arrived, and the estimates have been impressively good so I just went for it. But I also was in a good sized metro area with a couple Te

Just yesterday I drove 75km in -22C, parked outside all day, then back home the same distance in -19C. Took my Model Y from 80% to 12%. No problem with heat either (that's part of why it used so much charge). I was a lot more worried a

"A random password stored in a password manager is literally what a passkey is." This is not quite true; a passkey is still somewhat more secure than a password in this scenario. With passwords, the password itself is sent to the

"Natural materials such as wood or stone feel so much nicer than concrete or glass." To you. But not to me, which is why I choose to live in a house with glass and metal as the primary aesthetic. But stating opinions as fact is a

I think it's hideous and I wouldn't want to live there. There's nothing "wrong" (nor "right") about the idea that lots of bold colors will tend to clash and be unpleasant. It's just subjective and dif

That was my first thought too. But even at that speed, we have quite a bit of time. Since the particles are 0.01% slower than the light that just reached us, the particles would arrive in: 8,500,000,000 light years away * 0.01% speed of lig

Can you help me understand how this would help? The way I see it: if the government were on board with recording property boundaries in a public ledger, it could do it without a blockchain. And if it's not on board, then I don't s

As soon as I started reading I knew this was going to involve stealing electricity. "took it to my friend’s student dormitory where the electricity was “free”." I was not disappointed! Life hack: stealing can make you money!

I'm not the person you replied to, but this stood out to me: "And so (sorry, Orwell, but my guilt is too great to avoid the passive voice) certain strategies have evolved." This sentence isn't in the passive voice. (&quo

But it also seems like missing the point for people to criticize that headline for a grammatical error (falsely!) when they really just want Bob to be named... which is exactly the point of that article, right?

It doesn't depend on modules. And in fact, you don't even have to wait until runtime and throw an exception: plugins like https://github.com/basepom/duplicate-finder-maven-plugin/wik... can enforce this

Holy crap. It reads like a parody written by someone who read this thread and article. I was thinking it couldn't be as bad as people we're saying, but it's worse!

I agree that you need to shop around; some places value this far more than others. But I don't think the company needs to be huge. We have small but dedicated teams for this on each platform (backend, iOS, Android, web) and we only hav
