It's not the authors' fault you're too fucking dumb to understand basic facts about how journalism works. Go shill some more ivermectin, you nutter.

Yeah although the docs claim to support things like regex-based searches, it's so horrendously slow it shouldn't even be listed as a feature.

No commits in 2 years. Seems Google lost interest like usual.

Wow it's almost as if multiple people comment on things here and they have different opinions!

MacOS major version release are so underwhelming to me. They're not so much OS updates as they're updates to built-in apps I don't use or use at a very surface level: Safari, Facetime, Apple Maps, Messages, etc.

I'm not really sure what I'd want out of a new MacOS, though. It's been stable and (for my purposes) feature-complete for many years now. I don't remember the last time a MacOS upgrade added a feature I wanted but didn't yet have, nor the last time they added a feature I didn't realize I wanted because I'd never imagined it. The latter used to be what made Apple products stand out to me.

Most of our screen time is spent working. 8+ hours staring at a screen is bad enough for our eyes and brains. Imagine how much worse it will be when that screen is an inch from your eyeballs. I highly doubt that VR will be replacing screens for anything but occasional recreation anytime soon.

No, I don't think there's an excuse for anyone writing this badly.

What in the...? Those are the sorts of things that make you enjoy a novel? Jesus...

The only character in the first book who exhibited any kind of personality was the gruff cop who swears, doesn't care if he's not allowed to smoke inside, and takes no shit from anyone. It's almost laughable how bad the author is at characterization.

Thus the manual review. No one's going to be going to prison over a hash collision here.
