This is one of those backwards features I hope never gets implemented.

Just open your IDE/CLI and create the branch with one git command.

Look at all the steps that that issue lists. It’s ludicrous.

Of course they are. The problem here is that every issue is locked so no one can react either.

That kind of stuff is exactly why I’ve stopped going “dark everything.”

Some apps/websites are and will forever be WHITE and, if I use dark mode plus max screen brightness (to increase contrast), I’ll be blinded every time I open/visit one.

You know what doesn’t blind me? Using regular white pages with low brightness. Bonus points: my battery lasts longer.

I guess I’ll be calling it the Uait Aus in Uoscinton because in my language “sh” is unreadable and contains no extra information.

Some words have been imported and adapted into English in the past, but I doubt that nước mắm is one of them.

I‘d also say that news outlets should be held to a higher standard than “conversational language.”

You’ll probably also need to debug it often on warm summer evenings.

Typescript can do it, so why not add the same feature to PHP as well?

As a JS/TS developer, all I see is avoiding two characters: {}, everything else is possible in JavaScript and well-typed in TypeScript.

PHP 8

    save(
      value: 3
    )

JS 1

    save({
      value: 3
    })

I think the main problem is that there isn’t an easy way to set a hard monthly limit on these services.

I use a bunch of “freemium” services like S3 and Google Maps API and I’ve never paid a penny. I use them because they don’t cost a penny for my very limited usage, but I’m not looking forward to the day I mistakenly and disastrously exceed their free tier.

Source? There’s so much information about nutrition online that one should not just trust the first comment found on a forum.

Edit: I’m referring to the “feeding window”

Roofs aren’t infrastructure. Giving money to private schools just helps them raise the price.

We should sponsor public K12 education so that parents never have to “afford” sending kids to school and can work instead of having to care for their children. Then they can spend that money on fixing roofs and buying food.

I think that’s akin to (pardon my analogy) feeding wild animals: Do it long enough and they become more dependent on you.

I think money is better spent on education and infrastructure, so that value can be created by them eventually, not passed to them indefinitely.

Another way to put it: What if your parents raised you exclusively by feeding you and giving you shelter? What happens when they die if you can’t feed yourself?

Nespresso is great until you realize that you’re paying a huge premium to avoid using a spoon out of a coffee bag.

IMHO, it’s only slightly better than using that next-gen juice machine we all know.

I have a small espresso machine at home and a 5€ coffee dispenser: 2 flicks and you’re ready to brew.

As a non-sales person I find it hard to believe anyone would spend $49 for something that is only very slightly different than dozens other high quality and free solutions.

But apparently people did.

And that’s why I didn’t make $20,145.92 in 2 months.

True, 60% of those are Russian bots. /s

“I’m lovin’ it” or a jingle in the background would be enough for many brands without interrupting the call.

Clearly it would never be accepted though.

This isn’t meant to last. GitHub has been proxying markdown images for years to avoid exactly this. Probably they haven’t gotten around to fixing that here yet… but this surprises me.

Things like this make it hard to take Firefox’ stand on privacy seriously. They keep making “mistakes” like this all the time unapologetically.

I marked the email as spam because that’s what it is.

The core difference is that a “carousel” as intended here generally contains text, and that’s specifically why it’s a bad pattern.

“Scroll-through” photo albums are a fair way to display photos, however I still personally prefer a gallery for photos instead, exactly like it works on your phone for example (gallery + “lightbox”)

Sorry but do you use full screen windows on a 4K monitor? I doubt any website is really designed to fill anything more than ~1400 horizontal logical pixels.

I don’t see any such option on the iPhone. Also it’s a problem if you lose your phone before you make any transfer.

The previous answer made me think a bit more seriously about those reset codes that are lying around (maybe?) my computer.

I’m a digital native and digital lives are still so hard even for me; no wonder regular people just nope out of it.

We haven’t gotten there as a society yet, but there should be a “don’t look for me if I’m lost/captured” checkbox somewhere.

It’s my life. If I want to sail around Africa and I’m held for ransom, leave me to it.

If I want to hike a deadly trail, don’t come rescue me and then blame me for it.

Because of the people who died looking for this bus, nobody else can now see it. As a traveler, I see this happening too often: I see a place, I do something, 5 years later you can’t anymore because someone hurt themselves.

My idea is: put up a sign saying “5 people died here” and let new visitors figure it out for themselves.

> BIOS messages

I think the problem is right there. You’re living in the past so you get the past’s problem.

I haven’t seen a BIOS message in a decade.

I’m sure those U3011 are beautiful and hard to let go (I used to have a U27) but it’s also hard to look at a low-dpi screen once you’ve seen the light

Doesn’t Apple already include an ARM chip in MacBooks with the Touch Bar?

I have three feelings:

1. Apple will just enable the existing chips “today” and developers can ship ARM code to a sizable audience, with instant battery benefits.

2. Cheaper Macs will start dropping x64 next year and continue running only ARM code, maybe emulating x64 like Rosetta.

3. Pros will keep having both processors for the foreseeable future, similarly to how they have “dual graphics”, except that the OS will always run on ARM.

We should keep in mind that Apple just dropped a swath of 32-bit software which means they aren’t afraid to do it again.

macOS has an ARM simulator though. Will they have a “legacy Mac” simulator too?

Look up “boa login”, tap ad, YOUR PHONE HAS A VIRUS, tap to install. Suddenly you have a bank app on your phone.

You’re welcome.

This happens more often than you’d think. It’s even easier when you get targeted attacks via sms saying approximately the same thing. People don’t look at the URL bar.

You mean installing apps via your less-safe computer?

Browsers used to allow any software to side-load extensions and you know how that went: They all moved to store-only installs because all kinds of software were able to affect the browsers.

Same way for side-loading apps to your phone. Sure it’s more difficult than just tapping something on the web, but it doesn’t mean it’s safe for the end user.

Yes.

On one side there are blogs that just post content to keep momentum, say csstricks.com, and don’t care to fix their errors even after you report them.

On the other side there are absolute noobs that post unresearched content just because some VIP tweeted that you don’t need to be an expert to blog.

Well, that’s what you get: Bullshit everywhere.

Then of course you get awful StackOverflow “top” solutions that are straight up “worst practice”

Vietnam’s numbers are incredible and I cheer for them, but I wouldn’t trust their exactness, given the country’s placement in the freedom of the press index as the 4th least free.
