As usual with tech giants, the burden of playing whack-a-mole with the perpetrators is left to the victims, while the company profits.

You forget that √x always has 2 solutions: 1 positive and 1 negative.

I wonder how it would work before Javascript.

Nice, but I wish they opted for an RSS feed instead.

Yeah. It's basically a God hypothesis for geeks.

If this forum were to live up to its name, you would be laughed out of here after that comment.

Yeah, it needs Javascript to display text. No thanks, bye.

Just like who knows how many bits of false information. Which then get copied, pasted and repeated across the web and the world.

I've randomly found several, and I'm just one person.

At this point, I can't help thinking it created more problems than it solved.

2. Bad people steal good thing.

2. Good people sell good thing to bad people.

At point #3, I think you meant "then a→c".

The syntax of those defines sure looks weird. In what dialect does the name of the function being defined appear as the CAR of a list, followed by the parameters?

Very interesting! Maybe preprocessors really are the way to go for PHP, even if it were just for ironing out its inconsistencies (not to mention implementing a whole new language on top of it, as in this case).

But why those square brackets for argument lists? That seems unnecessary.

My solution: only read negative reviews. They're much more telling. As a bonus, they'll often kill impulse purchases, saving me money.

an atheist insists there must not be.

Wrong... Only so-called "strong atheism" is active belief in gods' non-existence. Regular (unqualified) atheism is lack of belief in gods' existence.

PAYWALLED

To be fair, Apple started it in the late '90s with their Pentium-snail ads.

A comparison with cash would be completely arbitrary: bitcoin doesn't replace cash, so it only adds to the problem.

A god wouldn't have needed all that complexity to make organisms pop into life. Frankly, God is just the most unintelligent hypothesis.

With the decline in Usenet traffic, that's much less of a problem nowadays. I haven't seen any spam in comp.lang.lisp for the last 2 years at least. It's pretty much all signal, and mostly high quality too.

Usenet newsgroup comp.lang.lisp for sure.

I wish Pure Data had a GUI like that. Hats off to the author.

Prosecco is also not Champagne

Indeed: Prosecco is a spumante.

Weird (to me, an english speaker with no knowledge of modern or 11th century Austrian) that they went with Fugging and not, say, Focking.

All the time, they would have had people scraping away some paint turning the "o" into a "u"...

Cool. I use original sc almost every day. Is this from the same code base?

What OS are they running? Strangely enough, it's not mentioned in the FAQ and I couldn't find it with a cursory look at their wiki.

How is anyone still using a Kindle after the 1984 scandal?

Hence my usage of the word "keep". You can't move /libexec elsewhere.

So then you must keep 'libexec' on the root partition (if your system is partitioned). Whereas '/etc' is on the root partition for sure.

It's entirely possible to send mail as format=flowed plain text, so that messages will rewrap nicely on any screen. I do it all the time with Mutt, it's actually very easy.
