You got 'em. Google rarely reveals why they killed someone's account. So we can't prove it was due to email content. For all we know it could just be a dude named Richard who throws darts at a board full of usernames all da

In fairness to those learning through YouTube or other modern sources: I learned from books and after finishing the exercises in the books I also had no idea what a "super simple project" was, or at least what one step up from t

Namespaces do not solve the issue but they do mitigate a specific vector, while also removing a perceived need to preregister crates. There’s no downside beyond “it requires development time and maintenance” like any other feature.

It looks like this works well from mobile until you try to edit and the keyboard covers the code. Sliding the animation off screen to make room if a soft keyboard is detected might allow this to be used on phones.

1. Apologies, the posts you replied to were shitting on me so I misinterpreted your comment as agreeing with them. ("you must be fun ~~at parties~~ in taxis" is a common dismissal + insult online) 2. Yeah... You're not wrong

No I'm just sad that treating someone like a human being is considered a positive and not... you know... the absolute bare minimum someone could do.

by reificator 4y ago
Wait I'm an asshole? For being upset that treating taxi drivers "as a human being" is considered a positive interaction instead of the absolute bare minimum of a respectful member of society?
11.
by reificator 4y ago
My previous comment, perhaps. My original point, however, was to highlight the fact that "They treated me like a human being" was given as the example of a positive interaction. Which is absolutely absurd. And I don't think

So our range is somewhere around: - They were OK - They treated me like a human being - They were rude There's no room for "We had an interesting conversation" or "They gave me some good advice" or "I think I m

And what if I’m not tracking that in such detail or even thinking about viewing it like that because it’s a side project ? My repos are hidden specifically because I do them for fun. I’d make them public if tinkering were an understood th

I did not order the list of effects by importance or impact, I ordered them by what came to mind while I was typing. I touched on low to the ground aggro decks in the very next paragraph, and I agree that's probably the biggest issue.

It’s good for teaching younger players who still have temper problems, but there’s only so much of the game you can experience this way. And don’t expect to get to advanced or expert strategies without the game balance falling apart. One k

Their schedules are clearly flexible because they’re already changing them twice a year under the current system.

by reificator 5y ago
They already change schedules though, we just launder it through the time “change” despite clear evidence of costs in both productivity and literal human life.

Changing your working hours means a talk with your boss and maybe HR. If we didn’t have DST maybe it would be a box you check when you get hired. We spend so much on engineering systems that handle DST changes, there’s an increase in sleep

I think you're caught up on exactly the opposite of the complaint here. People aren't requesting JS execution, they have the various "notebook" solutions for that. People are saying that triple backtick fenced code bloc

Compile time would be pretty sweet. I've never looked into it so I don't know for sure. Don't get too caught up in the hype, it never ends well no matter what the architecture. But it's certainly useful and fun to play

That’s a very good question, because sequencing tends to be the place where implementations vary the most. Usually there will be some way to sort systems into steps and define the order of those steps. Some require you to hardcode the orde
