  • Ah yes, Elmo with a silent "l".

  • They're pretty happy to comply with censorship in China though.

  • Das Capital.

  • edit: works better when used together with StackOverflow.comment.enabled = false;

  • A lot of people call set -euo pipefail the "strict mode" for bash programming, as a reference to "use strict"; in JavaScript.

    In other words, always add this if you want to stay sane unless you're a shellcheck user.

  • An app that will save the world…and other fantasies that software developers tell themselves to feel important

  • By the same logic, let me introduce you to the story of a young man rising from a failed Austrian artist to a national hero…

  • Reminds me of a hilarious bug in early GHC: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/163

    The compiler will delete your source file if there's any compile error. And the user complained only by sending a very polite email to report this bug. Simon Peyton Jones mentioned it in one of his talks and I still find it quite hilarious till this day.

  • u/Dangerous-Pizza7054 from the article,

    Seems like the user tracking "special promotion" overrides the premium. They don't even say whether it's expected or not. But my take away is that paying for premium may or may not show you ads, but you are definitely tracked and harvested for data. (Maybe even more so, since, well, you are more valuable to them.)

  • The turd is crunchy.

  • It do be like that sometimes.

  • Looking through the first one's content and it seems reasonable? The patent's abstract is supposed to be as widely applicable as legally permitted, so it's like a completely different language on top of legalese.

  • Left arm tattoo: do you worst. Problem solved.

  • It's part of Labour's platform. Also right now, even for pubs and beer gardens, there's a license to restrict the number of people that can smoke outdoors.

  • The idea that early kingdoms are despotisms in which the people exist only for the sovereign, is wholly inapplicable to the monarchies we are considering. On the contrary, the sovereign in them exists only for his subjects: his life is only valuable so long as he discharges the duties of his position by ordering the course of nature for his people’s benefit. So soon as he fails to do so, the care, the devotion, the religious homage which they had hitherto lavished on him cease and are changed into hatred and contempt; he is ignominiously dismissed and may be thankful if he escapes with his life. Worshipped as a god one day, he is killed as a criminal the next. But in this changed behaviour of the people there is nothing capricious or inconsistent. On the contrary, their conduct is quite consistent. If their king is their god he is or should be, also their preserver; and if he will not preserve them he must make room for another who will. So long, however, as he answers their expectations, there is no limit to the care which they take of him, and which they compel him to take of himself.
