It serves you. The lawnmower exists, you might disagree, but it’s not your lawnmower, you can’t uncreate it. But you can and should take care never to put your hand near it.

Yes there’s databases like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tz_database that track this and that are included in libraries that do the arithmetics. It’s why those libraries are often relatively bulky.

This would be HTR (Handwritten Text Recognition) not OCR and HTR is a lot harder than OCR especially for modern scripts (i.e. student's scrawls). And at every error the reviewer now needs to check if it was due to an error in the code

You’re not disagreeing with gp. I like the law because you can quite easily formulate it without bias. Large enough orgs will indeed get people whose job is more closely aligned with the goal vs people whose job is more closely aligned with

To be fair schema.org and dublin core say “when a property is name ‘title’ it means …” and you can expect to find the following properties… Json-ld says: if you want to know whether the “title” property means the schema.org or the dublin co

You’d end up implementing your own home grown version of hash join and query pushdown (skipping parquet row groups entirely) etc and your own home grown heuristics in selecting the right one (planning) Which can outperform a generic solutio

There’s night shift by default in your iphone right? You can use the slider to make it more pronounced.

Actually, do things ever get easier to tinker with as technology matures? Is it easier to build or repair a radio now than it was when they were first sold? A computer? A car? A washing machine? A vacuum cleaner?

They do actually. There’s a fair bit of critique you can level at the system from a country-wide economic perspective and especially from a world-trade perspective, but they did manage to get a system in place where a central government can

Discrimination is just another word for “treating differently”. The discrimination that we generally disallow is the one where it relates to humans and where they are treated differently based on attributes they have no control over. That w

Before backbone there was already knockout.js which was based on signals. Which is what all the hip frameworks are converging on now anyway. You could have bypassed all the drama.

You want an idp who verified that the account belongs to a specific citizen. There needs to be some loop closing between your bsn (akin to a social security number) and user accounts. That in itself is not something you can just handoff to

It’s mostly the same. But if you realize you forgot to add something to the dirst commit while you’re putting stuff in the second commit then this avoids having to create a fixup commit and then rebasing that afterwards.

Also the release that drops typescript transforms: https://github.com/nodejs/typescript/issues/51 (I’m not disagreeing to remove it. It just took me a while to find out what happened to it)

It’s actually worse than that. It wasn’t always whole coubtries who decided to adopt (or not) but cities and sometimes people within cities (i.e. the protestants in the city would be lagging, or maybe I’m misremembering and this was about p

Where I live the municipality generally has people (money-coaches) to help. Maybe just go over to yours and see what help there is? In general, when you’re in a bad place the advice would be to go off the internet and towards actual humans

One of my favourite (dutch) children’s books is “400 degrees in the shade” which explores exactly that. A human colony sticking to the terminator. (It’s quite dystopian though) https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/sho

It’s not the ME countries who are profiting, because they can’t export. So it’s a net loss. (Saudi and oman win a bit, but in no comparison to the iraq kuwait loss) The winners are mostly: Russia, Iran itself and (margibally) the US. But mo
