If a NodeJS application accepts a value from the client application, but validates against an early call (e.g. min 25 mins from now) the Infinity value can bypass that validation.

Because it's a relatively unknown side effect, most validations probably wouldn't check for Infinity.

Plus although Infinity pops off the timer at 0 seconds, a validation based on millisecond math would fail because Infinity > 25 minutes in milliseconds.

Mozilla seems to be really underperforming in upper management - all of these initiatives that have failed have resulted in engineering layoffs.

When will the business unit leaders responsible for repeated failure be let go and replaced?

Most of the publishing industry still uses .docx, some of the more advanced publishers have moved over to ASCIIDoc - personally I think Markdown is the easiest to use for a big project (having written and published a technical book prior).

If you are interested in learning animation as a hobby, and would like a community to contribute to and learn from - consider joining Anim8 (https://anim8.io).

We are the largest group of hobby animators on the web, and host collaborations, competitions, etc. on an ongoing basis.

We use some of our funding to build free educational content as well which can be found at (https://blog.anim8.io).

We also have a great Discord full of beginner animators as well as pros

There is very little functionality JQuery offers that the modern browser DOM API doesn't provide with more robust performance.

I bought recently from a dealership that was going out of business right by an upscale university and negotiated about $3500 off of MSRP on a new car.

They told me they had to lay off around half their staff due to Covid.

The deals are out there you just have to look for them.

Supply chain is a definite concern with LSD, and other synthetic drugs. They are often incorrectly dosed and sometimes laced with other chemicals.

Naturally grown drugs like marijuana, mushrooms, even peyote and it's cousins are easy to identify, easy to dose safely and there is almost no risk of supply chain tampering.

Good. Corporations should be punished when corporate greed leads to negligence which leads to the loss of human life en masse in exchange for short term profit.

I don’t see how this is a bad thing for the market, if anything there will be more pressure to make safe aircraft.

Agreed. That's a ridiculous change.

A well defined function should have a single purpose, and a reliable and repeatable output.

Would this have played out differently in a country known for its government-backed consumer protection laws, maybe Norway or Sweden?

In other words - is this an "American corporate greed" sort of tragedy, or is this standard result of such a lawsuit in all major countries?

By tragedy, I mean over 90% of the proceeds of the lawsuit going to lawyers rather than individuals affected in the data breach.

Lots of animators are still making indy animation, it's just been drowned out on the major platforms due to how time consuming it is to create and it's basically not possible to monetize well outside of Anim8 now (YouTube algorithm favors frequent uploads and high video duration - not compatible with animation).

Current Vue does a great job of separating templates, script and styles in a way that gives it a beautiful developer interface.

This is in contrast to React which squishes the three into one monolithic class in it's .jsx (versus .vue's deeper seperation which leads to easier debugging).

Vue3 will release a monolithic syntax where you can combine script, styles and HTML all into a class - I don't think this is the correct direction for the framework to go.

Developer interface is just as important as internal functionality and performance. Let's not forget that.

Testosterone is generated a number of ways in the human body - but most of it comes from the testicles in men.

A smaller amount is from the pituitary in both men and women.

Depending on your weight there is an enzyme created in fat cells called aromatase which converts testosterone to estrogens which can have an impact on your overall hormonal picture.

Testosterone is derived in the body from cholesterol, which is way proper fat consumption is so important for a healthy endocrine system.
