    Fact check: Is Mamdani introducing Arabic numerals to New York schools?

    Jump

  • They’re called "Arabic numerals" because the system was transmitted to Europe through medieval Arabic scholars, but they are universal

    Funny thing is the Indo-Arabic/Hindu-Arabic numerals aren't the only ones used in Arabic-speaking countries. I've seen prices like ٣٥٠ (350) in places like Jordan and Egypt. Here's a chart:

    I would say the familiar 0-9 system is understood globally, but I don't know about those Alpha Centaurians.

  • You mean Cloudflare is down this evening. Timezones, how do they work?

  • How do you pronounce in words the following two references to money: "6½d" and "6s. 6d." from a 1904 text?

    Jump

  • Yup, as long as 6.5 is pronounced "six and a half" because "six point five" is too modern for old money.

    Edit: and ha'penny is pronounced HAYP-nee /h ɛ́j p n ɪj/

  • You haven't included a huge amount of the necessary information. If you want get help (or help others fix this), you should at a minimum add:

    • what device/OS are you on with versions
    • what version your Vogager is
    • where you installed it from (e.g. which app store or site)
    • whether you got an update recently - to your Vogager and/or your os
    • screenshots

  • Clock but it's SELECT Digits FROM Numbers ORDER BY DigitName DESC

    Jump

  • But that's not how clocks work - when the day starts on a normal clock it's not 1 o'clock straight away, there's an hour that happens first. The label is at the end of the hour's segment.

    Think about it this way: when a new day begins, where are the clock hands?

    I did, the hour hand would be pointing at the (end of the) final hour, which is now eight. The minute hand's position is a whole different discussion.

  • Clock but it's SELECT Digits FROM Numbers ORDER BY DigitName DESC

    Jump

  • Indeed, which is why 8 should be at the top.

    The hours have been reassigned in reverse alphabetical order. This means the number which you hit at noon/midnight is "eight".

  • The founder was asked to provide a subscription level for individual domains and he said no and pointed people at the suggestion to search manually or occasionally pay for a month instead.

    HIBP subscriptions can be taken out monthly and cancelled at any time. If the appearance of your domain in a breach is infrequent, you can take out a one month subscription then immediately cancel it after performing the search (the subscription will remain active until the entire month period has elapsed).

  • If it takes me on average 5 minutes to login and change an email address, it would take me about 1 days, 18 hours to change them all! It definitely looks worth it for others who want to start using aliases.

  • Perhaps that message only shows up if some of the results are from the paid lists. For me, I don't see anything listed beneath, even though 34 addresses match, so I guess nothing's in the free lists.

    edit: Looks like it's triggered on number of results:

    Most domain searches are free. Once a domain has more than 10 breached email addresses on it, searching the domain requires a subscription. There are several ways to either reduce or entirely remove the need to have a subscription:
