Isn't it the opposite? Landing stress a sub-section of the runway while departures stress a larger portion?

I'd be surprised that a heavier plane on takeoff exerts more force on the runway than a lighter plane landing.

And as the departing plane goes faster, doesn't the lift take stress off the runway?

Postgres is close.

One good reason to avoid it is because you're probably wrong.

Tour de force article...well done! (except the snow was highly distracting)

Also absurd is that tabs and menus are not attached to their elements.

Why does this bother people? Who cares? There's always going to be stratification. Has literally no impact on anyone. Is it just jealousy?

How are people irate about this?

Considering that LLMs have substantially "better" opinions than, say, the MSM or social media, is this actually a good thing? Might we avoid the whole woke or pro-Hamas debacles? Maybe we could even move past the current "elites are intrinsically bad" era?

Ah, GitHub, you're right. And I guess I do use LinkedIn and VSCode as well. Was thinking Office/Windows.

Beens stepping into various offices most of the past 25 years and have not noticed that.

Tahoe is SOOOO ugly! The huge rounded corners are atrocious. The fonts look terrible. The windows keep snapping, expanding and contracting with no obvious pattern. Yuck.

And iOS's transparencies are disastrous. They make so much of the test illegible.

How do you know they are random or noisy?

I've gone without Microsoft products for many years now. It's SOOOOO much better.

FT is really losing it. Used to be reliable with quality takes. Now mostly following in line with the spectating takers.

Lecun always struck me as an institutional clown who completely botched Meta's AI outlook.

I would never structure my URLs for performance reasons. 100% for usability.

Seems overly concerned with bundle size which I'm not sure really ever matters? Certainly smaller is better but is it that big of an impact?

The US vetoes most resolutions related to Israel because they are anti-Israel.

Not sure what you mean by "military occupation". The military was for the most part not in Gaza itself. Not all borders were controlled (why do they even want to cross over to Israel?).

Israel is here to stay. Gazans need to an accept that and try to progress towards civilized society. And Hamas definitely needs to go.

Ah, I see, I think you're right. I misread the Google doc.

IMAP, which is MUCH better at doing the same thing, is still supported.

How people feel about the government.

What does "coding" mean in this context?

This was always a completely insane loophole that the item on Amazon was much more expensive than the exact same item on Temu.

Disagree. Baking versioning in from the start means they will much more likely be used, which is a bad thing.

It doesn’t seem that bad to me. Certainly not “toxic”. A lot of it is quite relevant to my industry. Perhaps because I am selective with who I link (only people I have worked with and could vouch for)).

I think there's a decent chance there's an Apple without Woz. But definitely not without Jobs.

You could not be more wrong.

Woz was in the right place at the right time. Jobs would have found someone else and no one would ever have heard of Woz. Jobs gave us some of the most amazing products the world has ever seen.

Woz is extraordinary lucky that he has a legacy (and a lot of money). Clearly the bulk of the credit goes to Jobs. And it seems more than likely that if not Woz, Jobs would have found someone else.

Could not disagree more. Woz's naiveté is cute. But Jobs' creations are out-of-this-world amazing. If not Woz, Jobs would have found someone else.

I was thinking server-side where it's probably 90%+ POST. True, client-side a lot different (node the only player client-side, though).
