This is from November, and is about the ‘student accounts’ thing which doesn’t at all help the central issue of being forced to make an account to distribute your app

… That’s the joke. (That he doesn’t)

On the other hand, he Doesn’t think you can double a sphere by cutting it into 5 pieces and reassembling them, so there’s that.

If you are genuinely asking:

Because documentation should be accurate and comprehensive. LLMs can do neither.

What I don’t understand is why there is so much resistance to the idea of having swap plus a separate hibernation file that is only enabled on demand. I finally got it working on my laptop, but it took a Lot of fiddly obscure manual configuration (which I wish I had documented - I don’t just mean setting the offset in grub) and it still didn’t play well with hybrid sleep, etc.

This is the only way to have hibernation that works at any memory pressure.

And yet on my phone I wish websites would stop hawking the native app and just let me use the site. In a way I suppose this is the same complaint since the native apps are often a web wrapper with telemetry.

I think the comic is pointing out a funny hypocrisy that we usually have between land bugs and sea bugs, but they are all bugs.

Indeed.

The original post used the word bugs, not insects. (Although the pic does seem to show only insects, I’d interpret that as a stock image fail)

Bugs are such a wide group already that to me it seems reasonable to include branches separated by 400 million years of evolution, much the way ‘fish’ is such a wide group that by a scientifically reasonable definition it can include all vertebrates as a subgrouping.

Can those values actually go above 1 even in theory?

“Bugs” (obviously not specifically Hemiptera) includes a Lot more than just insects. If you go back to the most recent common ancestor of everything commonly called a bug, I’m sure it’s Way back there and its descendents would include not only ocean arthropods but I’d guess probably most things with shells. Possibly just most animals

And yes, we are that closely related to fish

I actually think that’s a universal truth. One’s own accent is boring or even feels “non-existent” (it exists) but it may be very attractive to someone else with a different one.

Besides the other comment about Yu-gi-oh, there’s even This from the major card game franchise.

I will never buy a phone directly through a carrier instead of the OEM. They are offering me some nice discounts right now, but I have no interest in a phone where I can’t unlock the bootloader. (Or the carrier lock!)

Make sure it’s not muted. The audio is the vehicle for this journey.

Me.
A lot has and continues to go wrong, but mostly self-repairing. At some point some failure will be unrecoverable, but hopefully that’s a long time in the future.

An even better answer might be my cats. The small number of repairs that need professional assistance are cheaper than the same issues would be for myself. However I don’t expect them to last as long, unfortunately. Even though I got them very nearly brand new a few years ago.

As another comment said, the wave behavior when not measured is hard to explain if one thinks of photons as little particles that classically would need to go through one slit or the other. It seems each one goes through both slits and self-interferes.

And when measured, sure enough they act like little particles that need to go through one slit or the other.

Would still need a capacitor or something or it would flicker at 120Hz (in the US) but that’s not much more cost I would hope.

Also those 4 would flicker more than the rest of the string.

You forgot to mention that the book is nonfiction, this really happened.

Are we going to need a new .safeBlend format?
