I’m not op. But I think it’s not Carbon itself that is absurd.

It’s absurd to think that Carbon is the solution to memory safety when rust exists and Carbon’s memory safety story is basically “TBD”.

I found a good solution. In the YouTube settings you can turn off your watch history. It’ll want you that your recommendations will not be as good. You can watch a YouTube short, but when you try to scroll to the next one, it’ll tell you that there is no next video because watch history is not enabled.

I read this entire article but I’m still confused. What exactly is the financial motivation for keeping units empty? And is the concern the fact that the units are empty or are they concerned about the conditions of the empty units?

“Love-hate relationship” were the exact words that I used when I used go professionally every day.

I could complain all day about things the language does obviously wrong, often in the name of simplicity. But after all my complaints I still admit it’s a very good choice for certain kinds of software and software companies.

1110 >> 4 -> 0000 1110

I don’t remember NYT. But I recall the other major poll site Real Clear Politics had an election map with a percentage chance for each state and they had Hillary at 99%.

Their mistake was that they treated each state as an independent event. Treating each state as a separate biased coin toss leads you to put Hillary at 99%.

Nate knew that these are not independent events and if republicans are being under polled in one state, it is more likely they’re being under polled in all of the states.

I see “blocklist” becoming more popular in programming. But it just occurred to me how bizarre and out of place it would be if the parent comment said “a blocklisted word”.

This sounds like an xwindows thing. The way popup menu windows work in x, is the program grabs all keyboard and mouse events.

Has someone made a faithful representation of ssh over quic? You could use quic’s built in certificates and multiple streams of data and create something very similar to ssh. Is anyone doing that?

My wife thinks they’re cute.

To be more clear, here is a quote from another article

> The company said it would publish 17 of the author's books in their original form as The Roald Dahl Classic Collection along with the planned edited versions so "readers will be free to choose which version of Dahl's stories they prefer."

To me, it feels like a way to quell anger but still proceed forward and possibly even make money. I bet that the “classic” editions will be quietly discontinued in a few years.

Why did they feel the need to move the backslash key?

Might I suggest a spin on this: instead of blocking the IPs, consider serving up different content to those IPs.

You could make a page that shames their domain name for stealing content. You could make a redirect page that redirects people to your website. Or you could make a page with absolutely disgusting content. I think it would discourage them from playing the cat and mouse game with you and fixing it by getting new IPs.

What’s to stop someone from sending unique last-modified dates to uniquely fingerprint browsers?

Is this one step closer towards signal being TikTok?
