The ExplainXKCD is great:

In truth, no such spoon is present on the probe, and Europa’s icy crust is too thick to be penetrated by a spoon of such size.

The author is either being very tongue-in-cheek or very literal and humourless and I’m enjoying it both ways.

If programming.dev is down, it’s helpful to be able to see @meta@programming.dev from other instances and check for planned downtime, etc.

I’m more surprised that trapeziums aren’t related to triangles.

I thought he’d cloned them when I was reading, but you’re right, they’re all different.

While I don’t disagree, this article is pretty bad and unconvincing. Is it a draft or something dashed out to collect referral fees?

Vulnerable: VHD PTZ camera firmware < 6.3.40 used in PTZOptics, Multicam Systems SAS, and SMTAV Corporation devices based on Hisilicon Hi3516A V600 SoC V60, V61, and V63

It looks like they’re using AI correctly: to identify patterns in huge amounts of data.

I think they’d struggle to mention their own name more often in that article.

I like that they used Microsoft Office WordArt for the image.

So they’re posting the “lyrics” of an audiobook? Feels like a loophole, although I don’t know about how copyright works with actual song lyrics.

I think there’s a lot of people who would be happy with a Chromebook in computer form, and those are also the market for Linux.

sweet stop

I think you mean sweet spot. Now I’m wondering if it’s a typo or an eggcorn.

It shows the top line, so you just read top to bottom (and can scroll if you want).

You can set it to show what you want; if I’m doing TDD I’ll set it to show the test output, and then it’ll show the warnings beneath it.

You can switch between the views with a key (T for tests (or N for nextest), C for clippy, etc

But yes, it’s pretty similar to using watch.

My hope is that something like Servo gets good enough to be included, especially if it’s tree-shakable so you can only include a subset of the codebase. I don’t know if that’s a goal for either projects, but it would be cool - the default webviews can be quite lacking so currently you need to use a restricted set of HTML/CSS/JS to guarantee compatibility.

Ah yeah, missed that 🤦‍♂️

Because this is the internet, I can’t tell if the whoosh goes to your downvoters or you. I think you were joking, but that second sentence makes me wonder…

I pay for Nebula - $30 a year which is about £22.50. That won’t even cover two months of YouTube Premium (£12 pm), and there’s not even the discounted yearly option in the UK.

And “if you’re not paying you’re the product” is wrong - YouTube/Google would still be datamining my viewing habits to sell to advertisers.

Perhapsburg they are

Only if enough people do it. Then again, loads scrapers outside of AI already pretend to be normal browsers.

The phrasing of “First actual case of bug being found” definitely sounds like it’s a reference to an existing term. Nowadays maybe people would say “a literal bug lol”.

Edit: to be fair, OP doesn’t say that Hopper invented the term

I had a “T-Mobile MDA Vario II” (HTC TyTN 300) which was similar, and also had a collapsible stylus which lived in a little hole on the bottom. It was Windows Mobile, but it was great having the keyboard fully accessible (without that extra bottom bit the G1 had).

It looked like this, just less German:
