Even though this is a recall, a bad thing, it actually makes me more likely to buy from Anker than a no-name brand on Amazon. Those no-name brands almost definitely have problems like this (or worse), but we rarely hear about them.

Quick question while we’re on the topic of CSV files: is there a command-line tool you’d recommend for handling CSV files that are malformed, corrupted, or use unexpected encodings?

My experience with CSVs is mostly limited to personal projects, and I generally find the format very convenient. That said, I occasionally (about once a year) run into issues that are tricky to resolve.

A gas station near me has stickers on pumps with a QR code that supposedly links to a rewards app. I may be wrong, but I think it says something about paying through the app. Seems perfect for phishing.

Bought it and it looks greater. However, I am wary due to the permissions where the extension "can read sensitive information." I understand that there's probably no way around this, but still.

I just had a newish (but out-of-warranty) LG 4k monitor go bad on me. The picture went mostly dark, with a few streaks of white. I figured how to take off the back panel, but then got them stuck removing the EM shield covering the main board. I got all of the screws off, but then it wouldn't come off.

If the situation is this bad now, how bad is it going to be in ten years? Ugh.

An anonymous person saying "trust me. I am a professional in some tangentially related field and I did an analysis" won't carry much weight in a court (nor should it).

This looks great.

I think you can switch between sound output sources. Just click on the sound button in the menu bar.

I'm trying to read the terminal output. A static screenshot might be a better choice.

I keep my custom commands and styles in a separate tex file that I `\input` into the document file I am working on. The document file usually looks very clean with this method. It feels very much like HTML and CSS to me.

I run into all sorts of problems with Word's automatic numbering when I try to leave space, insert images, tables, or a make sublist. And it's never clear to me what the issue is.

LaTeX seems much more predictable. I have a file with my custom commands and styles that I `\input` and use always use consistent style. Nothing too crazy. But I also never try to do anything too crazy in Word, either.
