Fear. I grew up when the radioactive cloud from Chernobyl reached us. I didn’t grow up eating mushrooms. We still measure radioactivity here, ask any hunter. When Fukushima happened, it tore open an old wound. Is it rational? I’m not sure, but I remember my parents taking in 2 Ukrainians for a month to detox in Germany.

Just a quick shoutout to the Splinter Cell Enhanced patch[1], to restore, among other things, the shadows from the original console version.
And, as a bonus, the original Splinter Cell 75% off on Steam[2] and 50% off on GOG[3] (same price on both platforms).

Yes

I have quite a different take on that. As much as most people view documentation as a chore, there is value in it.
See it as code review, reflection, getting a birds eye view.
When I document my code, I often stop in between, and think: That implementation detail doesn't make sense/is over convoluted/can be simplified/seems to be lacking sanity check etc…
There is also the art of subtly injecting humor in it, with, e.g. code examples.

Absolutely agree, wait until the judge finds out about Bukowski's "The Fiend".

A good time to advertise for Sudo Mastery by Michael W. Lucas, highly recommend it if you want to dig in a bit deeper.

That is invalid syntax. Only phrasing content is allowed the p element (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Guides/Con...)

It would be trivial to allow all possible languages with toLocaleString[0]:
d = new Date();
console.log(d.toLocaleString(window.navigator.language, {
weekday: 'short'
}));

You got it. This is AI Slop at it's worst. And even the replies from the author reeks of AI. I read some of the source code, and it is slop, which I would never trust without scrutiny. Carefully read just the first words of benmxrt:
You're right that the current beta…
That is a great point
Absolutely agree with both of you
That is an intriguing feature request
That’s a very fair point
You hit the nail on the head
Great question
That is a valid point

The confusion likely stems from the relatively new introduction of the capitalized ẞ https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fes_%C3%9F
Maß capitalized (used to be) MASS.
Funnily enough, Mass means one liter beer (think Oktoberfest).
