I really wish that meme would just die. That dog was sick and probably in a lot of pain and it makes me sad every time I see it.

There's SVGO (https://github.com/svg/svgo).

Do these functions make min-width and min-height obsolete? Or is there still any reason to use those instead of min()/max()/clamp()?

Edit: just noticed the articles you linked have nice examples of combining the two (should've read first), and it makes perfect sense since min-width/min-height deal with how elements grow to fit their contents, while something like `width: clamp(...)` would be declaring the width instead.

It seems most of them are engravings from the 19th century, so most definitely in the public domain.

Website is down for me (HN hug of death?), but archive.org had a snapshot:

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. Thanks.

> I didn’t speak the language at all, but western civilization is oddly similar even if the details are different.

Never heard Japan being referred to as part of western civilization before.

I have no idea what Hugo is and was frustrated by this too.

Someone implemented the Library of Babel into a website, it even has a search feature to find a page with any (valid) content you can give it:

https://libraryofbabel.info/

Makes sense now, thanks. I had assumed it was a direct quote by Diogenes himself.

My English is probably lacking (not a native speaker), but I can't parse that sentence for the life of me, let alone understand what it means. Curiously enough, googling it brings up exactly two results: the book you cite and this HN thread.

There seems to be some scribbling on the top black lining, looks like "NICIλ something something". Any idea on what it says?

Also, I'm surprised by how similar the collar design looks like a typical encrusted dog collar you could find at any dog park today.

It actually got renamed to Mitsubishi Montero for the Latin American market.

What caused them to ban you?

Mitchell & Webb made a pretty clever comedy sketch about those two professions.

> It's very irritating talking about whatever hyperloop is, because that the bar for what the hyperloop is keeps changing (Is it tunnels? Is it in a vacuum? If there's no vacuum isn't it just a tunnel? Is it your own car or a pod? There's solar panels somehow?).

The Hyperloop concept is exclusively a pod in a vacuum tube. The electric cars in a tunnel concept is called the Loop (no Hyper), and it's a different idea entirely developed by Musk's Boring Company (which in turn has no involvement with Hyperloop development). The names are very similar, which has caused a lot of confusion, even in mainstream media reports.

I mostly agree with the rest of your comment.

That video doesn't talk about the Hyperloop at all. You're getting the Boring Company's Loop mixed up with the Hyperloop, which despite the similar-sounding names have close to no relation.

I'd say anything by Satoshi Kon, especially Paprika and Tokyo Godfathers.

HaxBall [1] and WebLiero [2] are two other games with pretty decent WebRTC P2P netcode by the same author.

That assumes they'd be honest about it. They would arguably have more to gain by accepting the free tickets, then claiming it was all a hoax, further fueling FE.

Not a native English speaker, bit I think got (Br) vs. gotten (Am)?

I don't know if those features are actually not implemented in FreeBSD FF, but the game runs OK on Linux FF, so there's a chance you just have those features disabled rather than not being implemented.

I haven't noticed it being slower, but you can also bind a single key to the dig action (original Liero didn't have that option), which in my experience results in much faster digging than with the old hold forward + tap back combo.

You can change your keybindings in settings.

You can probably just run the original executable on DOSBox.

This is a port of the original Liero, so 100% accurate physics.

That may have been a mod, or a clone (e.g. OpenLieroX, Gusanos). WebLiero is a faithful port of the original Liero, so the amount of gore is identical.

Liero was one of Soldat's inspirations.

The article cites benefits in "not being dependent on arable land, water (i.e., rain), or favorable weather".

And this is speculation on my part, but I assume not needing pesticides, and going straight to the end product instead of having to harvest, store and process the plant-based food are also advantages.

Weird that they'd pick a red panda for the logo.
