Ideally our critical infrastructure would have a better security track record

For zero-crossings my first thought would be either bullet (•), to not break the visual flow; or multiply (×), since it's at least vertically centered

We spent our lives searching for the Creator, and in the end all we found was GitHub Copilot

If you think "→" misrepresents the meaning of "->", then certainly "->" also misrepresents the meaning of a semantic arrow "→". The set of symbols in 7-bit ASCII is somewhat arbitrary after all.

Let's say "→" misrepresents the meaning of "->" even as much as 0.1% of the time. Would you rather your risk of error be 99.9%, or 0.1%?

I'm sick of anti-ligature people telling everyone else not to enjoy their fonts, on every single post about a font. Ligatures have caught on for a reason.

Well that's good news, at least

I predict we start seeing "Login with 1Password" buttons on random websites next to the google and facebook buttons. I also predict it never catches on.

The natural next step is adding ELIZA-like chat responses to your bots

I know that PioSolver is not a "poker AI" per se, but the article seems to say it can tell you what to do based on the table situation. Has anyone tried pitting pro players against PioSolver?

Or even better, turn on autovacuum (buy a roomba)

Definitely embellished. If you try to eat a live cat, it will scratch your face beyond recognition.

> As of April 5th 2017 with the release of Windows 10 Version 1703, SetProcessDpiAwarenessContext used above is the replacement for SetProcessDpiAwareness, which in turn was a replacement for SetProcessDPIAware. Love the clear naming scheme.

This is the kind of thing I hate about "New Windows". Once upon a time MS used to strive for backward compatibility. These days every few years there's a new function you need to call. You can't get optimal behavior just by writing good code from the start. You need to do that, and also call the YesIKnowHowPixelsWork api call, and set <yesIAmCompetent>true</yesIAmCompetent> in your manifest to get what should be the default behavior. It's a mess.
