because the UK spent so long as the dominant world power and just saturated all international discourse

From what I’ve heard, German was still the go-to international language in academia until WW2, when it fell out of favor and US’ post-war boom took over. So it’s a bit more complicated.

Time to conquer Malbolge with ChatGPT.

It’s in base 36.

More like, if Kraftwerk were fun for more songs than just ‘Model’ and ‘Pocket Calculator’.

Ted kinda looks like Zach Weinersmith.

Surnames are a pretty recent thing generally. Ashkenazi Jews only got them in like nineteenth or twentieth century, forced by German bureaucracy — and a lot of the surnames adopted were the person’s profession.

Iceland doesn’t have surnames to this day — they have patronymics instead. Singer Björk Guðmundsdóttir’s last name means ‘daughter of Guðmundur’.

TBF Microsoft also don’t know how to make things look and feel right. For ages, their primary UI design tools were a toolbar crammed with buttons end to end, a vertical list crammed with items, and a table crammed with items row by row — culminating in Windows 8’s tiles. MS didn’t understand that people need spatial organization, spacing and margins, and only recently started separating toolbar buttons with white space in their apps.

Meanwhile principles of grouping are any designer’s most basic tools. One could make good design with sticks and mud if they follow the principles.

The author posts aplenty on Reddit, all their comics are in this psychedelic manner. I’m suspecting they was collecting random textures since early 2000s. Be prepared for an inordinate amount of very gay romance, though.

This question, asked by Jim Jefferies in his bit about guide dogs, ruined my wiping experience. When I was younger, my ass smaller and and my shits smoother, it was enough to give a single wipe and go on with my day. Then Jefferies asked the question of how blind people see the poop on the paper, and the next time I had to look at the paper and do a control wipe to see that it’s clean. But now that I’m fatter and my shits messier, I have to do like six wipes to get a clean one. Curse you Jim Jefferies.

That was in fact one of the original propositions of communism.

Well, that’s how it’s supposed to be done. Since mold is a fungus, what shows up on the surface is the reproductive parts that spawn spores, meaning the rest of the bread probably has mold too.

Ah yes, when it’s Russia then every Russian should suffer for not overthrowing Putin. But when it’s the US, Hillary actually won and “it wasn’t me” anyway, and blaming voters is pathetic.

Oh, so your response to the quality of your work is to cite your age. Wow, what an amazing retort.

Wow, that’s amazing crock of a shit of a speech you have there. You don’t know anything about anything, but you’re ready to pump out a whole pageful about it. It’s quite impressive.

You didn’t study shit, but you bet it’s all fine. You bet the database stays the same, and the protocol is all fine, and nothing is ever bothered by anything. It’s all some ‘SQL’ bullshit, why bother about it when smelly nerds can bother about it all they want, right? It’s just some ‘SQL’ fucking nonsense, it means nothing anyway. Just style the UI and process the comment, and it all goes away, you fucking nerd, why are you ever bothered about anything?

Oh maybe it might in fact make more sense to have it processed by the post instead of the semantics being attached to the fuck of the comment, what the fuck do I know. Just edit the fuck out of it, it makes more sense on the other hand. We need to trust processing by the semantics of the sense, why not. Who can edit it, incoming parties, yeah! Admins or mods, I’m not even sure.

sniff

Then there’s the skin the cat, we can have many long meetings, the specifications, choose a bit, make mistakes, what the fuck do I know. A bit more explorative, make mistakes, fix them, it’s all fine. That’s the great thing. Fixing mistakes. sniff That’s the great thing with programming. It’s very cheap compared to, uh for example to, uh a mechanical, who maybe likes uh to avoid. But that also means. The opportunity. There’s a time bang for each bang of the methods. bang

I really can’t make a good statement here. It’s regularly not as simple. The trick is to apply the correct one.

Thanks. I’m not familiar with piefed’s development cycle, which seems a bit complicated so far — what with announcements appearing on the .world feed before things are deployed in production.

I have a bit over twenty years with some of them spent at a site that had a million users daily. Seeing as we’re measuring dicks here.

We’re not building a space shuttle, here. Lighten up.

Come on man. It should be a mantra for web devs to never ever lose or bungle users’ data. You know, the thing that gives the web its entire worth, one person sharing with others their personal experience in overcoming the daily grind and tedium: them asking “how do you deal with this shit?” and others replying “well if you contort just so to keep your back from giving out, and press these buttons, you can in fact live to the end of the day”. This should persist on the web for years to come and for everyone to discover. But somehow you think that if you save five minutes on ruminating through your decisions, that’s worth a whole lot and everyone should cheer on you for implementing that change despite the fact that I could overwrite that reply with “you greedy schmuck need to shut up and do your miserable job because you suck”, and this is entirely okay with you.

The issue with the Stack Overflow that you refer to, despite Rimu’s somewhat cheerful comment in that chain has been noted. I suspect it won’t stay that way.

This is more informative that what you said above.

Since you appear to be knowledgeable: out of curiosity, has this feature been released to the public? Another commenter wrote that it’s only in testing yet, but idk myself how to take the original posts from Rimu.
