Yeah, I’m also having a lot of trouble finding sources for the specific claims they’re making (even, say, the NFL stadium redesign thing, which feels like it should be easy to find). And taking into account the AI-generated lead image, I’m a bit skeptical of all this.

This is excellent for adding typing to libraries originally designed without it in mind while keeping backwards compatibility.

From googling your username, it sounds like you are connected to Skial, the TF2 server?

So I'm guessing you posted ASNs of (in your words, basically ISPs) of some players on your server, indicating generally where they live. Was it connected to specific people? I can see why Discord would consider that private info.

Don't we have enough of that already?

By what measure does an oak tree "know" about any of these things?

If it does under definition X, do I also "know" about the microbiome in my own body under definition X? The nutrient mix of the food I eat, the oxygen content of the air I breathe?

> Should Chrome support PSDs?

PSD is a pretty heavy format, and does not have the benefits for serving images to end users (e.g. good compression) that JPEG XL/AVIF have. So probably not. But there are still use cases for serving PSDs on the web in creative communities, so it would be pretty cool to have.

Supposed to be fixed now. A bad edit to a widely used module, of course.

+1 for Keychron (also not affiliated), the C2 in my case since I don't need wireless. It's hard to find pre-built mechanical keyboards with Mac layouts. I previously had a WASD but made the mistake of going with clear switches that hurt my hand after extended typing sessions. That's not WASD's fault—it's otherwise a good keyboard—but there's no way to change the switches on that one. The Keychron can even be hot-swappable, and it was less than half the price of the WASD for comparable build quality.

Yes... kind of. Per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601, there is a "basic format" without separators and an "extended format" that includes them for readability. However, a T is still required to separate the date and time in the most recent version of the standard.

Crucial definitions:

> “Websites” refers to www.cloudflare.com, as well as the other websites that Cloudflare operates and that link to these Terms, and (ii) “Online Services” means Cloudflare’s products and services that are publicly available without a subscription or a Cloudflare account, including, but not limited to, the 1.1.1.1 Public DNS Resolver service, including 1.1.1.1 for Families, Cloudflare Time Services, and RPKI Portal.

I don't understand; the only code in this repo is a third-party regular expression library. The readme says "All source codes [...] are provided under the terms of Apache-2.0 license", but where is it?

It's painfully bad enough that I have to assume it will change before release.
