Death, and tight spaces.

I’d call it common as in commonly offered, less so as commonly ordered. In my experience, at least.

I used to think I didn’t like exercise. As it turns out, I’m just not that into running. I love biking though.

I’ve always loved weight lifting as well, though, so idk

It baffles me that people actually take these assertions seriously, especially after having used different software that uses voice input, like Siri, Google Assistant, Alexa or whatever. Those things make some serious mistakes even under ideal circumstances, and you want me to believe that they can accurately overhear things in non-ideal circumstances? I highly doubt it.

Regardless, you can use an ad blocker to make this a moot point - I’ve never experienced anything even close to this, because I never get ads.

I struggled with this as well, having not enjoyed my teenage years that much.

How I coped was to tell myself that people asserting that period X is the best years of your life are people whose lives peaked at that time, and that this won’t be true if I made sure to not have my life peak then.

I’m happy to say that I’ve proven the assertion wrong in my case. It’s been a steady climb upwards, with every year being better than the latter.

General purpose: Kebab case

But really, follow the conventions of what you’re working on. For example, I’d use pascal case when working on a Java/Kotlin project, and snake case when working on a Python project.

I hate statistical rigour, I want everything to be vibes-based instead

Not saying there’s any reason to switch, but I believe you can load CSV’s into sqlite.

Datasette would be something that I would try for CSV’s as well, that seems like an interesting piece of technology I haven’t had reason to use yet.

Finally there’s always Jupiter Notebook and any respectable DataFrame-solution.

Not to knock spreadsheet-solutions too much - I certainly see their value and use them frequently - but if I had to do something that warranted writing VBA, I’d probably reach for a tool I could combine with some form of VCS like Git at least.

I don’t think I’ve ever experienced this while flying in the EU, and I’ve done my fair share of it, living here and all.

I don’t know if it matches your desire for easy install of small disk space, but it might make up for it in other arenas - Ruby is my new-found love when making simple scripts. Being able to mostly emulate the shell integration that bash has by just using backticks to call a shell command is the killer feature in my book.

Basically guaranteed to be a clear text offender

I guess you could have every store selling them be required to register the sale mapped to the serial number, and disqualify any unregistered ticket. It’d be a bit of a hassle, but certainly doable.

I’m sure they make enough money to not care. Being in the part of the company that brings in the dough is generally a pretty good position to be in as well.

While Rust would probably have been a good choice for implementing a new browser, I don’t think Swift deserves the criticism it’s getting in this thread:

• Swift was created by the same person who created Rust, and has many of the same nice traits
• Swift is a modern language that is easy for plenty of developers to pick up; I’d place it in the same family as Rust and Kotlin
• Swift grants access to a large pool of native iOS/Mac developers

Possibly. I’ll have to add it to the mix when comparing. Thanks for the suggestion.

I was mostly against having the amount of ads that it blasted on me. They had a setting to turn off the recommendations, but that made it nigh-unusable.

You can do a lot of things! I’ve replaced the launcher and installed an altstore on it, giving me access to plenty of good stuff.

It’s running Android under the hood, so any APK is theoretically installable, but most won’t run well unless they are optimized for the use-case.

I seriously doubt it. At most this is probably an A/B-test or some content-specific restrictions.

Not necessary, apps can register to open links from specific domains.

The only caveat is that if they don’t also own the domain - like Google owns both youtube.com and the YouTube Android app - you have to manually go to the settings for the app in System Settings and enable them, under ‘Open by default’.

I once hallucinated after being poisoned by lunch from a Torta truck in Mexico, somewhere south of Monterrey. I was in a cinder block shitter a mile down the road until the sun went down that day.

You forgot to add an important detail here - did the meal taste good?

I’m asking because I also got quite sick in Mexico, but always found the food to be excellent in terms of flavour.
