The end user disables pixel cleaning because the pop-up annoys them. They then start bitching about burn-in within 6 months, RMA the monitor even though it was their choice to do so, and spread negative sentiment about your brand going forw

And yet, that is in the conclusion, the section with the lowest chance of being read in any article. Much higher appears, > I rewrote Bun in Rust using about 50 dynamic workflows in Claude Code run continuously over the course of 11 days

You should try it again. I had a similar experience to you about 5 years ago and completely gave up on game streaming. However, I had a cold a month or so ago and wanted to play Oxygen Not Included from the couch from my old-ass Linux lapto

Did they walk back that thing where certain language features could only be used by the Elm team? That seemed like a language-killer to me.

Unfortunately the AI bubble means we are witnessing the death of PC gaming. Watch the GamersNexus video, The Collapse of Personal Computing: https://youtu.be/zyQwAhppWj8 Costs are driving manufacturers out of business. Esse

Interesting article (I tend to agree with you re SNG in the programming field). But unfortunately I couldn't easily absorb the substance as your site needs some work on mobile: - text completely overflowing the background - body text i

The content is rendered unreadable by the LLMs sentence construction. Secondly, it's insulting. If you didn't care enough to write it, why should I care enough to read it?

You don't see how adding functionality that requires writing to the database rather than just reading from a cache could "drastically increase database load"?

If you couldn't be bothered to write it yourself, why should I read it? The same goes for the overly-complex components that express the same idea over and over again, but somehow without adding any clarity.

How is that worse? Leaving it open signals to anyone searching about it that's it's still an issue of concern. It will show up in filters for active bugs, etc. Closing it without fixing it just obfuscates the situation. It costs n

Not every topic will be covered yet . While *The deadline is now* is an essay, *WP:NOTNEWS* is policy — and inherent in an encyclopedia.

Recent Wikipedia articles are kind of an oxymoron; Wikipedia by design is meant to be a tertiary source, downstream of both news media but also mainstream scholarship. The problem is that it's "an encyclopaedia anyone can edit&quo

Wow. This sort of obstructionism is what convinces people Open Source is not worth the time and effort. Really disappointing. As someone else said in that issue, "perfect is the enemy of good". Thousands of KMs of road are current
