> I’d rather a friend forgets my birthday and apologises

Do most people really remember all the birthdays they acknowledge? For me they must be diarised, or beyond immediate family there's no chance.

I used to think it was artificial and pointless to wish people happy birthday after being reminded by google calendar. I now know enough adults who have taken (mostly minor) offence to being forgotten, that I play the game.

> not doing anything dumb like accelerating through the curve

Is this dumb in winter, or dumb generally? I was taught to do this.

At what age are social security numbers issued? Folks born in 1989 weren't adults until the 2000s

Why are all the comments getting downvoted? Maybe this one will too? The other replies _look_ like they have substance, so some refutation would be helpful.

Wait til you hear about The Facebook.

Can you do a single run on the last day of the year?

I don't think that qualifies as playing both sides.

It would be interesting to see the linked talk "Useing You're Type's Good", but it seems to have been deleted.

I think most games are written to run on hardware that predates them.

So we should just ignore?

Works in English too:

* I am Danish.

* I am a Danish.

Or

* I am dancer.

* I am a dancer.

Are car seats mandatory for children in taxis in Singapore?

It's awesome in both senses! How readable has it become for you over time? Because on first glance and without syntax highlighting it's a head-scratcher.

This is an interesting post, but as a non-American it's hard to understand what's it's alluding to in some parts.

The one criticism of NGSS I found from a quick skim of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Generation_Science_Standa... is that it teaches evolution.

What does "estimation" mean in the US?!

> Why folks continue to use them confuses me.

I use them. I haven't ever heard mention that the content is edited. Do you have a source?

That's good to hear.

It'll be nice to have an update which isn't just random UI changes.

What is "library migration"?

> only ~100ms for each interaction

Wow.

Any chance Podcasts now takes less than 30 seconds to load the Latest Episodes list? I'd rather an outdated list than none at all.

Agreed, except for "just". To me a KVM is a physical switch for 2 computers to share the same wired peripherals. It took me 4 different tries to find a page which explained what this one is.

> the part you see will not parse as a complete program so you need to guess

Presumably this could also be a useful trait when live highlighting of files when editing, as in-progress typing is likely to be unparseable sometimes.

It's CapEx vs OpEx.

0. stop eating meat?

Isn't Windows also basically free? Every laptop I buy has a Windows licence stuck to the bottom of it.

> "Google Docs added some kind of delay such that the typing you do into the title box right after you open the doc gets overwritten"

GitHub also introduced this feature recently in the New Issue GUI.

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I'll keep an eye out, but all seems fine so far.

Is GitHub a tech company? Because that's who they're criticising.

> You'll probably find it to be a not great experience

I'm confused where I'm likely to be suffering. If I start using Wayland tomorrow would I even notice? Apart from having to switch DEs, of course.

I hate to contradict you, but it seems like a tautology.

20% of requests on a GUI page also makes the whole thing unusable.

It's why you never meet a dog that works in a dogfood factory.
