skeeterbug

Just played a round, think I found a bug - It was down to one other computer and myself. For some reason the power capped at 235, so neither of us could come close to hitting one another.

Oh man, we played this in computer lab in high school to pass time after we were done with our assignments. I believe it was a java/flash version though (year 2000/2001)

Just an FYI - Your QA and Typescript links are swapped!

Nah. Offshoring has been a thing since I started working in 2003. There are always cycles. When offshore projects fail, work comes back.

We have had the X10 Pro Omni for a bit over a year now and we have been enjoying it. A mix of hardwood/carpet. I have it mop 3 times a week and vacuum alternate days. The mopping has been good. I change out the mop pads and blow out the filter once a week. The vacuum is OK, nothing compared to an upright, but it keeps dog hair manageable. If we only wanted vacuuming, I would have probably chosen a different brand.

Just curious, what issues have you had?

> Right now, Windows gets a lot of attention because it’s everywhere.

I disagree with this take. Linux dominates in the server market.

To be fair, the front page news section doesn't even have a date next to the 7.81 release entry. I clicked it to see if there was a date, but at first glance the page just looked like a time capsule. The title of this post doesn't even mention the release.

They publish plotly.js and react bindings as well.

I recently had the opposite experience. App was built in older version of React/MUI/CRA/tsc (project started in 2020). I upgraded everything to latest, removed CRA for vite, and it just worked for the most part (vite has some docs for upgrading from CRA). MUI had a few things deprecated, but it didn't break. Removed the yarn lock and switched everything over to vanilla npm now that it has package locks. Took < 1 hour.

I wonder what this codebase will look like after a year or so of doing this.

Just a quick note on my comment. We have mostly hardwood floors, so the mopping is really nice. The vacuuming is OK, def not the best. I can see if someone had mostly carpet they would be disappointed with it.

We bought a few in 2018/2019 that are holding up fine. They get more use than our expensive Samsung TV!

Which Eufy? We got a Eufy X10 Pro that mops/vacuums back in June. We love it. We have an older roomba for a different floor/level, and that thing is always getting stuck on something.

This spring our one year old de-humidifier died. The manufacturer would send you a new replacement unit, but first you had to leave a review of the new unit. After the review was submitted, they would send you an Amazon gift card with the replacement value. So the old units that died never get a 1 star, and the new units being "sold" are getting 5 stars.

I guess it is still better than most companies that will find whatever reason they can not to replace faulty equipment.

I believe Chrome uses Skia

There is a 800kb font file loaded from the css. Can reproduce in dev tools by disabling the cache. The shift happens when those fonts are applied.

"...but the system that can kill you is still safer than the average driver!"

It is funny how the goalposts moved.

> The last product google ever built and launched successfully.

Now becomes "it doesn't count if it was an acquisition". Youtube would probably be dead if any other company purchased it. Google ate losses for years with it. Golang is a developer product. Chrome was not an acquisition. Maybe you are splitting hairs and saying it is an "acquisition" if they forked an open source project.

Maps, Chrome, Golang, Android, Photos

This was brought up in a recent interview with Raymond Chen on Dave's Garage channel:

Megaprojects just did an episode on the F15: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgI7jDd7hww

I did the same with my son as well. He got a 76mm Funscope last month, but it has been pretty cloudy. We saw the red band across Jupiter and Saturn's ring. Images were a bit small/blurry, but it was still amazing. I just tucked him tonight for bed, and he said "Thank you for taking me outside to stargaze this morning". He is excited to look for M31/Andromeda next.

Do you have a preference on the Moonlander vs Ergodox?

Don't forget you had to re-wind the entire tape or get charged extra for the rental! We had a dedicated re-winder next to our TV at one point.

I just got the Ryobi 40v weedwacker and leaf blower. I did my 1 acre lot and it still had one bar of battery. I even did some thicker brush areas to put it to the test. Would definitely recommend!

The UI is bad, but I will take Teams over using WebEx for meetings.

I purchased a battery powered hedge trimmer and edger. Things work great! Still on a gas powered trimmer though, is your 18v?

I remember Gentoo linux being quite the rage in the early 2000's (at least in my office). Compiling everything and getting your system up and running was a badge of honor, I guess.

You should check out vimwiki! I came from org-mode and have been using vimwiki the last three months now. It can do .md and export to html. I mainly use it for day to day notes and todo lists.

Epic purchased Rocket League developer Psyonix and ended Linux support for the game shortly after:
