IMO (as someone who doesn't have to deal with the actual rendering) it would go a bit deeper into talking about deciding how to show what has changed. There's a lot of improvements that could be made there. e.g. "whitespace has changed here" so there's no real code changes involved.

Or "this big list of imports has changed, and code formatting has line-wrapped the list into different lines" - gitlab for example copes poorly with this. I'd love to just see a clean diff that highlights the additional import, and not just ten lines of changes caused by adding one line to a big list of imported symbols/functions.

But almost all social networks and search engines won’t let you advertise without a license from the required jurisdiction.

Which is a good thing! This is an area full of scammers, if you can't set up your business legally, I'm very happy to hear it's more difficult for you to advertise it.

If I'm playing it on my commute, it's usable with mobile data disabled for the app. But when the train stops in a station long enough to auto-connect to wifi, immediate full screen adverts :(

Works on contingency

No money down

Always the best example for missing punctuation!

because of OS-level overcommit, which is nearly always a good thing

It doesn't matter about the language you are writing in, because your OS can tell you that the allocation succeeded, but when you come to use it, only then do you find out that the memory isn't there.

The whole point of the interview process is to assess not just the applicant's past achievements, but what they might be able to achieve if they got their place at the uni. Part of that is looking at the applicant's background, and knowing that even if they aren't currently at some elite high-fee school, they might still have the ability and capability to do well.

I am all in favor of this style of selection. The dark old days of "this kid's dad went to our college, we should do them a favour and let them in" are long gone, thankfully.

Can you point to any kind of evidence that Oxbridge are dumbing down their teaching, or lowering their standards of teaching? I doubt it.

Full disclosure: cambridge alumni, from a state school!

Does that mean it excludes most of the results from "Floor to ceiling libraries without a ladder"?

You know, if I'm buying a house, I think I can supply my own ladder separately...

Less pedantically, what I'm trying to say is: are you really sure these are the kinds of searches that home buyers are really looking for? "Home in london, under £1m, with big beautiful windows" - I suspect that most London buyers are going to care an awful lot about where in London the house is, a city-wide search isn't going to be useful to most. Maybe your functionality (as presented) won't inspire actual buyers.

Speaking of which, that might be a way to improve it - combine with location & mapping data to figure out nearby transport, services, schools, etc...

It's a good article though, the explanation of how multiplies work is nicely written.
